2 things:

-Can't we have one of our knowledgeable programmers on the site make a simple program so the matches don't need to go through MapleStory? Though I guess setting up so the program can actually communicate through the internet would be a bit harder =P

-Wasn't the Omok game mathematically solved for all starting positions? i.e. there's a clearly superior strategy that guarantees winning.

It's actually pretty easy to do an ajax one. Except I don't know the rules of Omok, at all.
I barely remember it being a grid of varying sizes and a time limit, which would potentially have to be ignored or at least extended to play via web.

I'm sure [MENTION=4235]KhainiWest[/MENTION]; would be glad to explain the rules if it makes for an easier way for people to participate in this.

Wut, mention tags refuse to work.
I should learn how to type.

Almost makes me want to learn how to play Omok, also expecting people to be mature with Money/NX at stake is crazy.

Also google implies there are multiple online versions of it already out there...

Seems to be an adaptation of this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gomoku

But there are different rule-sets, I believe the Maple version starts out with 4 pieces in it already and there's no rules of "three and three" or "four and four".

I'd gladly accept that but I'm not sure if maples rules are custom or actually official.

Checkers was, not Gomoku, which is omok from what I know at least. I've never experienced someone always winnning with the same strat.

It can be any length of board, typically it's 15x15 on maplestory I think. I'd have to see the board but I'm pretty sure it is. From people who play gomoku it's like a 25x25 board I think. The only rule (which I'm not sure is gomoku, or omok specific) is double 3. So you can't make a move that creates two 3's simaltaneously. Such as:

If I put the piece in the middle I automatically win, because you can't block two 3's at once. But it isn't limited too consecutive pieces, so moves like;

Where the x is where you cannot place it. Even though theres a space between them, because it creates two 3's it cannot be placed. If there was a spot to the right of the x you could put it there.
 Squares are moves that are prohibitted because of the set up
Also putting more than 5 in a row does not result in a win, so if you put 6 in a row, it doesn't count as a win.

EDIT: Ugh let me draw it on paint or something. Sec

Just want to double check, but Nexon fixed Omok banning, right?

Yes it has been fixed or I'm extremely lucky.

No cheating, pimento. We all know how much you need to feed your NX habit. All that......Mabinogi rebirthing....

Shouldn't be too hard to do one in-game, considering now you only need 1 of each piece and a board, instead of 100 of each and a board.

Man I'm so down for this yet lv20 in each world? Sad I guess i got something to do later lol.
An online / out of maplestory version would be easier imo.

someone should make an exact copy in a flash game.

Actually that is kind of dumb, let me edit that. Everyone just hast to make one character in khaini(cus it's my homeworld bro). We'll discuss location later.

Edit: Fixed it. Only one character in one world.

Wikipedia Wrote:Analysis

Computer search by L. Victor Allis has shown that on a 15×15 board, black wins with perfect play. This applies regardless of whether overlines are considered as wins, but it assumes that the rule of three and three is not used. It seems very likely that black wins on larger boards too. In any size of a board, freestyle gomoku is an m,n,k-game, and it is known that the second player does not win. With perfect play, either the first player wins or the result is a draw.
Generalized gomoku is PSPACE-complete.

Oh, that's what I read, the 3v3 rule kept that from being exploited. And nah I'll collect boards, I can just buy 10 of them from MTS lol

I thought Maple's omok had no such rules though.
