Yet another Table Update Post

Today I'm replacing a usual post here with another big round of updates to this table of game rules.

The biggest update is adding links to websites where you can play the game listed. I didn't find links for all of them, but if you know of one (or a better one than what I have listed) please let me know so I can add it to the list! Additionally, I added links to posts labelled: "Game Description: X" where X is that game.

Since no one complained to me, I removed the column about the complexity of winning the game on that turn, replacing it with a column for general game properties.

As usual, I make some errors here, so please let me know if you find anything I need to fix!

Next week Wittenberg has spring break, so I won't have any new posts until Monday the 14th.

Updated Game Table

I made some updates to this game table with suggestions from others (and many things I learned at BIRS).

I am considering removing the last column ("Can I win this turn?") mostly because it's only interesting for a few combinatorial games. Anyone have a strong feeling about this?

Updated Game Table

I updated this table of Combinatorial games and some of their known properties. This time I added a column to list variants of games. I still want to add more games and properties, please inform me of more results to add! These could include:

More Games! I'd love to add more rows.

Properties! I'm sure there are some incomplete cells that could be updated. This time I added "Open" if the problem is known to be open (there must be more of these).

References! I added a bunch of links, but there must be more (or better) supporting documentation for some things. I would love to add more links.

Table of Known Game Facts

Recently, I asked whether there was some online table of known facts about algorithmic combinatorial game theory. I didn't get any answers, so I decided to start something of my own.

This site contains a table of game properties. At the time of this there are only 5 games listed, and I haven't yet started to add links to back up the cells. I plan to keep adding to this as I can. Please let me know if you can help me fill in cells. Also, perhaps there should be additional columns I should include! I came up with these off the top of my head, but it might be that more are appropriate.

Naturally, if you would like to see a specific game added, just let me know either via comments or emails!
