Belgium 12-01/12:07 Hagbard: - By the way, I didn't forget Iceland. But didn't succeed to find a good and lively Christmas tune made in Iceland. Perhaps others know one? 12-01/07:57 Hagbard: It would be too difficult for me to implement. But it's a way to counter the first player's advantage. So I sort of accepted Hex as an interesting game but imperfect. 12-01/03:33 ChaolAibhne: @Hagbard I can't recall whether I've asked you this before; if so, my apologies, I'm not intending to nag. What would the possibility of implementing the swap rule that usually employed in Hex? That is, to compensate for first-mover advantage, the second player has the option after the first move to let it stand or to appropriate it as their own (either by switching colours or relocating the move mirrorwise). 12-01/00:08 Hagbard: It's Christmas month: https://aagenielsen.dk/jul2024.phphttps://aagenielsen.dk/jul2024.php 11-29/08:42 Hagbard: *** info The Copenhagen Final, round 5, is a Round Robin among 2 or 3 players. 2 players are certain, and the 3rd player is not certain yet.
