Will someone please beat this damn game

[mokawanis]

my will to live is declining each time I lose this game. Honestly, I haven't won a game yet so I am wondering how difficult others find it to be.

It's a simple game that takes about 30 seconds to play.

1. Hello, demon. I would curse you

but I don't want to incur the karmic debt.

Posting that is an evil evil evil thing to do.

Evil.

2. It won't work for me! When I click 'new game" nothing happens and when I just

click on a square nothing happens. Maybe it is busy. :shrug:

3. I have it working now and I would like to put a curse on you too but I fear

retribution. However may I just say....:spank:

4. I think I see the problem - the game won't let you win

Note that I have won, and the game refuses to admit it.

7. But you didn't win.

8. Why didn't I win?

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. Red has to make a horizontal line.

Didn't you wonder why blue never tried to block you?

11. It doesn't say that in the rules.

There is no reason to assume it has to be a horizontal line, the way the rules are described. That may very well be the reason, but they should say so.

12. Yes, the rules are poorly explained. I'll grant you that.

But in games of this nature, it's always one person working a line one direction, and the other working the other direction. Otherwise - logically - it would be a really shitty and unfun game.

5. I just won

Took four tries, but I got it.

[EstimatedProphet]

6. Sure, it sucks up to you

To me it refuses to admit I won.

13. nice!

10. well, even when I won, I lost, so......

maybe I'm missing something, but I was able to connect red from the top to the bottom one move before blue, but then blue moved, and it says "blue wins"

14. well cat my dogs

but I just went back for "one more try" and finally beat the damn game. I still wish I had never discovered it.
