Just got back from gym. Spinning ==> tired now.

red wins: 182, blue wins: 146

starting to even out. no draws yet.

Thinking about a slew of other such games. Trying to find a simple one that is drawn if and only if r(5,5) > 43. More generally, games

{ G_(n, k) } such that G_(n, k) is drawn iff r(k, k) > n.

Current candidate: Same as before, but you lose your next turn if you increase your clique number (excluding making your first edge!).

The idea here is to force the players to avoid "boring" clique building races.

Trying this one now: 2003 Au Bon Climat, Pinot Noir, Santa Rita Hills.
