That was what I was concerned about, too. If black tries to go into a large radius circle, and hits the edge of the board and is trapped, it might imply that if the board is bigger, eventually there is enough space for the circle to go all the way around the board, at which point the game is a draw. Unfortunately, it would take a large effort to do larger boards. 12 x 12 isn't that hard, but much larger and the files become enormous. bruce
