Yeah, open a chess program and make it play for u...

yeah, but i don't see a clear cut victory path, so if u don't screw over, it'll probably draw anyways. Atleast I'm on the offensive now. And according to chess, that's generally a good thing.


Had an opportunity to attempt a multi-win combo some time ago, but it was too visible, and if u found out, it would lead to a bad position to me, so i didn't take it.

EDIT: poo poo, what am i saying. lol


Yeah, i was planning an attack, but i have to admit i didn't expect it to come to fruition that easily.

Overlooked the simple fact that some of your moves are forced. To be very precise, actually just that last move. Meh, thinking too much about the future, i got blinded to the immediate present.

On a side note, I want to play someone in chess. I haven't played it in forever.

There's simply too many ways you could've won... >_>

This also wins:

Ya, I'm quite annoyed at the fact that i didn't see anything yesterday. Wasn't thinking right that day.

That method is actually 1 step faster than the method i employed in the end. It takes 2 forces pairs after the last complete turn. Method I'm using can be pulled to 3 if u choose to stall.




So many different methods to win, and i didn't see anything yesterday...



Starting from my last move, if u choose to live as long as possible by stalling,

X to move:


| | | | | | | |
| | |O| | | | |
| | |X| |X| | |
| | |X|O|O| | |
| | |X|O|O|O| |
| | |O|X|O|X| |
| |X|O|X|X|X|O|

| | |X|X|X| | |
| | |X|O|O| | |
| | |X|O|O|O| |
| | |O|X|O|X|O|
| |X|O|X|X|X|O|


| | | | | | | |
| | |O| | | | |
| | |X|X|X| | |
| | |X|O|O| |O|
| | |X|O|O|O|X|
| | |O|X|O|X|O|
| |X|O|X|X|X|O|


| | | | | | | |
| | |O| | | | |
| | |X|X|X|O| |

No.... remember i said if X decided to stall for as long as possible.

If X stalls by doing this:


| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| | |X| |X| | |
| | |X|O|O| | |
| | |X|O|O|O| |
| | |O|X|O|X| |
| |X|O|X|X|X|O|

Then the sequence i gave is the fastest, (and only) method to win.




You're assuming X does something random, for which your method is still by no way the fastest.

This would be much faster.


| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| | | |O|X| | |
| | |X|O|O| | |
| | |X|O|O|O|O|
| | |O|X|O|X|O|
| |X|O|X|X|X|O|


And if u assume X does something stupid, then it's instant win.


| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| | | | |X| | |
| | |X|O|O| | |
| | |X|O|O|O|O|
| | |O|X|O|X|X|
| |X|O|X|X|X|O|
