Oops, that extra piece should have been at F1.  Sorry about that.

Black to play and win:

   8  - - - - - - - x
   7  - - x - - o - -
   6  - - - o o x x -
   5  - - - o x - - -
   4  - - o x x x - -
   3  - o o x - - - -
   2  - - o - - - o -
   1  - - - - - x - -

      A B C D E F G H

As far as I can work out the puzzle with the extra piece is now valid. Can
anyone disprove this?

Thanks,
Cameron

GONNECT
Gonnect is a new abstract connection game. It uses the basic rules of Go
(each player drops a stone into an empty cell in turn; stones with no
liberty are captured; there are no suicides; players cannot repeat the
previous board position) with the simplification that players may not pass.
Gonnect also has a much simpler winning condition: a player wins by
connecting a group of their stones between any two opposite edges of the
board (or the adversary has no valid move).
