I Like Big Bots and I cannot lie!

@TicTacTweetGame

This is the classic game of Tic-Tac-Toe/Noughts and crosses/Xs and Os/whatever you call it.

How To Play

Send “add me” to reserve your name on the play list.

Send “remove me” in a mention to remove your name from the play list.

When it’s your turn, you will be given introduction text so you know a game is about to start.

Once a game starts, you have 10 minutes to make a move. If you don’t, the game will be aborted.

During A Game

Send “move row col” to make your move, where: row can be A, B, or C; and col can be 1, 2, or 3.

For example: @TicTacTweetGame move b 2 would place your symbol in the middle of the board

  1 2 3

A  | | 
  -+-+-
B  |X| 
  -+-+-
C  | |

Send “quit” to abort your current game and let the next person play.
