I think I will try to reply to your posts one at a time rather than in one big post. Hopefully, that will be a little clearer for all.
With respect to my sports references,
I was NOT trying to use analogies to sports as a way to justify draws in pente. I was only trying to make the point, in response to what you wrote, that ties, at times, are a good thing. You had said, "Why are so many people against the idea that some people are going to win and some people are going to lose? I don't asee how breaking a tie in any way cheapens anything.", and I wanted to point out that there is no need to break EVERY tie, not EVERY game needs to have a winner and a loser. THAT was my point. I was NOT trying to draw or imply any conclusions about poof-pente.
Also, please don't accuse me of straying off topic by using sports analogies. When I posted them, I was replying to YOUR comments of:
"I suppose having the world series, NBA finals, or Super Bowl be declared a tie wuold be acceptable to you?"
And
"remember the all star game lkast year in baseball?"
