Default Re: Time for a poll. (The subject is abuse)

Earlier in the thread, a mention was made of Rock-Scissors-Paper-Mentok, which is just like Rock-Scissors-Paper except that Mentok beats anything and ties itself. The implication was that superdominant strategies reduce the complexity (and the fun) of a game. Tic-tac-toe is fun until you figure out how to always win-or-tie.
