On Monday, November 17, at 3:30pm ET, I get to give the next VCGT talk on the computational complexity of the game #BattleSheep: https://sites.google.com/view/virtual-cgt/seminar
Abstract: Battle Sheep is a board game published by Blue Orange Games where players take turns moving stacks of sheep tokens around a hexagonal board, always leaving at least one sheep behind. In this talk we'll learn the basics of the game, play once, and finally show that determining the winnability of the game is PSPACE-complete. This talk assumes no prior knowledge of computational complexity.

I finally wrote a #CombinatorialGames piece I've wanted to write for a long time. It's about how Col's computational complexity went confusedly unsolved for over 35 years and how I got scooped at the end of that but still got a cool result. https://combinatorialgametheory.blogspot.com/2024/08/the-curious-case-of-cols-computational.html
