Ok, I will give $5,000 to the first one to beat me in a game of Tic Tac Toe on MSN.
You send $500 to Banky, and we play, if I win, I keep $500.
If I lose, you win 5k!
Best 2 out of 3. Post here if you want to play, and Cm me your email. Or CM me if you want to play and your email :p
Bring it on!

what about draws?

Draws, we will keep going until someone wins.
Ex. If I have 1 win and you have 2 wins, and we draw the next 2 rounds, then we keep going, if you get another point, then you win, if i get another, then we keep going until the next point.
Sound right?

lukey cheats :p

I do not cheat, although, i think he just gave up, after 30 rounds, it kinda gets tiring.
I had 100 straight draws against someone and that was playing it on paper, you think 30 on a computer is tiring?

i did give up, i just didn't care anymore
2 hours of playing Tic Tac Doe to win $5k seems a waste of time to me.

is the number of possible tic-tac-toe combinations small enough to be handled by a brute force/backtracking algorithm?
if anyone doesn't know off hand, I'll probably try this when I have time (sometime after the end of this quearter probably)

There are 765 different positions, 26,830 possible games, and, ignoring symmetry, 255,168 possible games.
