Hexversi Puzzle #2. Multiple Choice. 1st correct guess Wins 50 Points.

[JohnGalt2341]

1 guess per person. If you guess a 2nd time, your 2nd guess will be ignored. First correct guess Wins 50 Points.

Hexversi has the exact same rules as Othello except the board is shaped like a hexagon and there is a dead spot in the middle of the board as seen in the image below. You cannot play through the dead spot, you must play around it. If you do not know how to play Othello, I recommend that you watch the minute and a half video below, and you will know ALL of the rules.

What's the best move for Green?(feel free to take a guess)

For hints, I recommend checking out yesterdays puzzle found here:

I'm going to add a 100 Point bonus for the first 10 players that post a screenshot(take the screenshot before your last move) of beating this AI in the link below:

I'll keep this going until 10 people beat it. You can only win this ONCE. AND, you can't use someone else's screenshot. In other words.... it has to be a unique configuration. This is NOT a strong AI. It's VERY aggressive. Aggressive play is EASY to beat once you know how to deal with it. Good luck!

Just randomly noticed this thread while browsing, didn't know if you were gonna do it or not!

f10. Gives purple 2 available moves that both force them to give up the NW corner

We have a Winner! Green playing f10, leaves Purple with exactly 2 available options as seen in the image below. So Purple must play either e11 or e10. Once Purple plays either e11 or e10, Green is going to have a move at f11. Corners are VERY GOOD to have because they are yours too keep. From here, once Green takes the NW corner at f11, Green can simply work clockwise around the board by playing k6, and then k5, and then k3 and so forth. Purple meanwhile will not have any good moves anywhere. Btw, Purple realized their demise and resigned after this move.


I plan to do more in the future, but I think I will make a rule that you can only win twice. Once you win 100 points total, you will have reached your limit. But you can still Win 100 separate points by beating the AI found in the first post. You just have to post a screenshot of your Win. Take the screenshot before your last move or else it will get covered up.

Yeah, I mean I'm fine with not guessing at all. I definitely always want to give others a chance to guess first. I'm sure I've played more total Hexversi games than anyone on SBR besides you so I know I have a big advantage in experience
