But, since the system DID declare it a draw, the rules must be as gambler is interpreting them to be. I interpreted them the same way. As soon as a player does not have a move in their turn, the game is at that instant, over.

Subject: Re:
MadMonkey: No, I don't think this is a matter of interpretation. Let's quote the rules literally again:

How to finish the game

The game ends if one player cannot make a legal move.

In this game it was Nirvana's turn. She couldn't make a legal move. So ONE PLAYER could not make a legal move, and the game is over. There is no rule about "passing" a move. If it would be possible, the game would never be over until all the board was populated - as long as there is only one free square, there is always one legal move to be made. So in this case the rules would say:

How to finish the game

The game ends when all the board is covered.

Subject: Tournament for Dummies
The newest tournament for dummies is about to start in less then 24 hours!

►ALL games for dummies (under 1500 & unrated) #15

This tournament is for players rated BELOW 1500, or UNRATED.

This is a great way to learn how to play a new game, or play a game which you may not be too good at.... without too much worry about being "killed" by experts.

Each tournament type needs at least 4 players before it will start - many of the games have only 2 or 3 players signed up.

Subject: Re:
Mr. Shumway: I agree with what you say, we have to play by what the rules are here on Brainking. The thing is depending where you have played it, as i have before the Rules are different.
Just an example from Gamerz.net:

'If you are unable to move on your turn, you are skipped. There is a chance that your opponent may be forced to make a move that will let you move again'

This is why its hard to implement games, you could play a game somewhere else and swear your rules are correct, when they only are for that site.

Subject: Re: deleted a tournament
MadMonkey: Well without looking at the tournaments, the only thing I can guess right off the top of my head is that it was a brain entry tournament, which Fencer does not want users to delete for the fact if anyone who entered may not automaticly get their brain entry fee back - and might be something Fencer has to do manually.

Again, that is just a guess off the top of my head.
