Normally I don't submit anything on April Fools anymore, but:
Googlefan247: The hard mode is considered impossible to beat...
Spikestuff: I'm just going to bet that someone somewhere has something smart enough to nuke the "Hard" AI
And I just had to do this:
Edit: Youtube updated with 4 frame improvement from Spikestuff and added Spikestuff as coauthor. The movie file awaits to be updated by the judges (if they so wish).
Samsara: ok your move
Samsara: tic tac t-oh
Samsara: File replaced with a 4 frame improvement.
Samsara: While I'm not normally a fan of the notability clause in our rules, the nature of Tic-Tac-Toe as a game means that there really isn't any possible way to make either a quality or notable version of it. It's a basic game, essentially a beginner's programming project, and without spicing it up in some significant ways, there's really no way I can see it being published. Like denying beer that someone made in their bathtub, rejecting for bad homebrew.
DrD2k9: Unrejecting and re-evaluating following rule changes.
DrD2k9: Notability is no longer necessary (because, you never know who might like bathtub beer), and this game meets our definition of a video game (which acknowledges, in the same way that bathtub beer is still technically beer, that a simple/little-known/homebrew video game is still technically a video game). Nothing apparently sloppy in the gameplay actions.
It would likely require someone to prove that it's only necessary to place 3 X's in order to win to declare this run to be sub-optimal.
Accepting.

http://www.youtube.com/Noxxa <dwangoAC> This is a TAS (...). Not suitable for all audiences. May cause undesirable side-effects. May contain emulator abuse. Emulator may be abusive. This product contains glitches known to the state of California to cause egg defects. <Masterjun> I'm just a guy arranging bits in a sequence which could potentially amuse other people looking at these bits <adelikat> In Oregon Trail, I sacrificed my own family to save time. In Star trek, I killed helpless comrades in escape pods to save time. Here, I kill my allies to save time. I think I need help.
