additional rule

I played this game in the mid nineteen sixties with a friend who learned it from Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games column in Scientific American. I remember that we could also split up a stack. If for example, I wanted to move two, and I had a stack of five-- (say) white, red, white, red, red-- I could move the top two, leaving behind a stack of three that would still be under my control.

Should this article be in the "Board Games" category or does the "Board Game Stubs" category supercede that? --Parsingphase 20:39, 18 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

The stub category supercedes it, as does the "Abstract strategy" category. Percy Snoodle 09:21, 16 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Importance

edit

I've changed the importance to Mid. Pragmatically, the only mention from reliable sources is a Sid Sackson book by himself, rules and the SdJ win. No rules exist, and this is far less important than the SdJ wins in 2018, 2019 and 2021 that are all previously rated as low importance (although I increased it to mid importance due to the SdJ wins). Hence, it does not achieve the 'extremely notable' status. Many thanks-VickKiang (talk) 04:21, 23 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
