THE LOGICAL RULES
1. Go is played is on a 19x19 square grid of points, by two players called black and white.

2. Each point on the grid may be colored black, white or empty. A point P is said to reach a color C, if there is a path of orthogonally adjacent points of P's color from P to a point of color C.

3. Starting with an empty grid, the players have alternate turns, black first.

4. A turn is either a pass; or a move that does not leave a grid pattern identical to one that that player has previously left.

5. A move consists of coloring an empty point one's own color; then emptying all the opponent-colored points that don't then reach empty; and then emptying all the player's own-colored points that don't then reach empty.

6. The game ends after two consecutive passes.

7. A player's score is the number of points of his color, plus the number of empty points that don't reach the opponent's color.

8. The player with the larger score at the end of the game is the winner. If the scores are equal at the end, it is a tie.
