Rules: 1. If a set of a player's stones has no "open edge" then the other player get the set of stones.
2. If the sets of both player's stones has no "open edge" in a configuration, then a player who made this configuration get the set of the other player's stone.
3. A player never make a configuration in which his stones have no open edge and the other player's stones have an open edge.
A board is represented as follows.
+ + + +
+ o x +
+ + + +
"o" means a white stone, "x" means a black stone.
"Open edge" : An edge which has one node without a stone. Example:
+ x x +
x o o x
+ x x +
The center set of white stones has no "open edge", so black player gets them. Six black stones have "open edges" like this : "x +".
Note that the rules do not specify when a player wins, so the game never terminates.
