Wait but when we do some of next posts other people will know it.

Seems like white is close to death

Just try not to make direct reference to it.

But with how we act they eventually will.

and this, as opposed to that from earlier?

It’s ok, it’s not a big deal. Maybe I shouldn’t “hide” it to begin with ^^

Yes, it’s unavoidable eventually of course.

This Koan satisfies the rule again!

I fell like liberties of liberties, or distance to the edge are relevant, too.

If I flip them

It’s still red!

So color flip (Black white)is not a hundred percent color flip(green red).

So another (black white) flip.

A colour flip changes it under some circumstances, but not under all…

Let me guess a (sub-)rule: If Black and White both are present on the bord and if both have the same amount of liberties all added up, then you can invert the colours, and the koan is still the same quality (green or red) as before.

The first one is the first Koan I revealed today rotated by 180 degree, so it’s still green. The third was asked by le_4TC recently.

The others are all red:

Color flip can’t always flip colors when we also have rotational invariance, since by flipping colors you sometimes end up with the same board rotated.

We are now eighth in the thread leaderboards,
So the chances of a green red flip is high when you do a black white flip.

This one’s red:

There’s been a lot of Koans revealed. Can you come up with a rule that explains most, if not all, Koans?

It’s fun that the thread is popular, but please don’t think too much about this metric :stuck_out_tongue: More posts doesn’t equal a better thread.
