A variant of Hex or of Y, where move order is changed from the ordinary alteration of Black and White (BWBWBWBW...) to a system where each player sometimes gets two moves (BWWBWBBWWBBWBWWBW...). The sequence is given by the odd-even parity of the sum of the binary digits of the natural numbers:
Natural number | Sum of Digits | Parity | Player |
---|---|---|---|
0 | 0 | E | B |
1 | 1 | O | W |
10 | 1 | O | W |
11 | 2 | E | B |
100 | 1 | O | W |
101 | 2 | E | B |
110 | 2 | E | B |
111 | 3 | O | W |
1000 | 1 | O | W |
