How it works

  1. 1

    Pull the node to your end

    The node starts in the middle of the wire. Drag it to your end and you win; after 15 rounds, whoever's side it's on wins.

  2. 2

    Both pull in secret

    Each round both sides choose how hard to pull, at the same time. The harder pull moves the node one place. A tie leaves it.

  3. 3

    Pulling costs energy

    Both start with 30 and get 2 back a round. Spend big early and there's nothing left later; save too long and you're dragged off the end.

  4. 4

    No one can cheat

    Moves stay sealed until both are in, and every match's record can be checked by anyone, move by move.
