Wanna tell me how to beat her at noughts and crosses? Maybe I'm stupid
or something, but I haven't figured out the trick. If she always goes
first, she should never lose... I've tried everything to beat her and
tried other stuff to get around having to beat her. I'd like to see
more of the game, but I've spent over two hours beating my head against
the screen trying to figure out the trick to this puzzle.
