Double 3 rule?
What's up with this rule in Omok? I was literally in a position where I could put a piece anywhere near my other pieces because of this rule, so I ended up losing when I could have won.

According to this link, without the double three rule, the game becomes solved, and black can always force a win.
not having the double 3 rule in place makes it far too easy to win
