DO NOT READ FURTHER UNLESS YOU WANT TO A KNOW WHY THE TRICK WORKS
You are given a Tic Tac Toe arrangement of squares. You start in a specific square. You are to make a given number of moves on each turn up, down, or sideways. After a move a square that you are supposedly not on is removed. The trick gives a set pattern of numbers and square removals. I understand the basic reasoning behind how it works. I would like to extend the trick by allowing any numbers to be pickled by each audience member. I would tell the audience to pick any even (or odd) number and I remove a square based on only knowing even or odd. I have tried it a few times and it seems to work. Could others see if there is a glitch in my reasoning.
