Two news.

1. I again have WYPS for sale - http://www.wyps.info/store/

2. New game Slither on LittleGolem

I look forward to trying the new game! As for buying WYPS: I definitely want to support this site, but I think I'll do so by paying my membership and making donations instead :-)

nice, looking forward to playing slither. I never heard of it but it is always fun to play games here.

I've added two tournaments that start tomorrow. Enjoy :)

When will the first championship in slither be?

nice work, richard. :)

nice man

WYPS: Price is 29 EUR with shipping and handling. Probably will be higher in the next year.

Slither: Monthly cup will be played on 9x9. Championship on 13x13. Championship will begin on December 1st.

I think the borders of the Slither board should be marked with the color of the stones trying to connect them. The illustrations in Slither_by_Corey_Clark.pdf do this. And doing so works for Hex.

Oh, wait. Now I see. The subtle shading of the board's background is lighter on the left and right, and darker at the top and bottom, thus denoting what I asked for.

Thanks Richard.

I don't see a forum for slither. Is it a game of go? Richard, if you set up a new forum category, maybe you could also set up one for Shogi, or at least change the "chess" forum to "chess, shogi". And maybe a separate forum category for wyps? (numeric wyps is not a word game)

I'd say it's a connection game like hex and havannah, i.e. it would fit in that forum if it doesn't get its own forum.

So is Twixt, and that is even on a square grid.
