But note that I said passing was disallowed so he would have no choice. In 
a percolation simulation, you can have quasi-stable regions. To follow the 
analogy for go, you could have situations where each color was trading small 
regions back and forth, like trading kos or 2 for 1 trades. Even with super-ko 
enforcement, you could still have some very long sequences where most of the 
board was stable. In principle, you could tune the playout rules to get the 
dynamic properties that you want.

This looks like the only plausible precondition: given a board of n points, n-1 
are filled with the same color, and the opposing player plays the nth point, 
capturing the lot. Hopefully, any player of modest skill would not fill the 
penultimate eye of his own group.
