Instead of trying to identify the correct one, let me state the rules I will use: Board: m times n squares, where m and n will be "reasonable" numbers, to be chosen by the opponent who challenges the robot. One player marks a free square with crosses and another with circles. These markings will not be changed hereafter. The first one to get x markings in a row wins. (x is another "reasonable" number). My guess is that for x <= 4 this is a win for the player who starts... What about x = 5 (assuming pretty large m and n)? I would guess x = 6 is a draw with best play. Ralf
