me too, i see no way for white to even think of a draw. Also, ughaibu's dominance with both colors definitely isn't a fluke. In him in this game, and also against him and me in jungle, players have challenged us to prove they have sure drawing methods. It was rather interesting really. But in both cases, the fortress idea was flawed and so far, I know of no way for a side to force a win in this or jungle. Ughaibu once said he felt there was a way intuitively, but since no one could find it, it wasn't important to delve into it yet. Could we, here, on brainking, see the beginnings of tablut theory forming? Ironically, the more we research into if there is a proven draw, the more draws we will have.
Part of me wants to say leave well enough alone because I like the game as it is, but the nature of humanity is progress, whether for good or ill. I hope we're not brilliant enough to ruin the game. People say chess is ruined because of the theory and the draws, but it found a way with the FRC addition. Anyway, getting ahead of myself here.

there was a great article, which someone attributed to ughaibu, written at www.abstractgamesmagazine.com, but it appears to have gone the way of the dodo.

I appreciate the new blood you've brought to the game and site, storm, keep it up.
