Very Weak players and those with zero understanding of chess may compare
chess to tic tac toe.
It should be noted that TicTacToe3x3 IS solved.
IF eventually chess could be solved. The 'solution' would not be very
helpful for two humans playing each other unaided.
The entire chess is dead claim is started by players with no understanding
of chess nor computers.
What I dont understand is how can someone compare chess to tic-tac-toe and
then proceed to look for a next chess which is based on chess anyway? Are
we then looking for a 12x12 tic tac toe then?
