      The authors investigate three mini ultimatum games, one similar to \textit{G. E. Bolton} and \textit{R. Zwick} [Games Econ. Behav. 10, 95-121 (1995; Zbl 0831.90137)] and two others in which equal split was replaced by nearly equal split, once slightly favoring the proposer and once slightly favoring the responder. Such a minor change should not matter if behavior was robust. However, it was observed that behavior changes dramatically and fair offers occur less often when equal splits are replaced by nearly equal splits.
