18x18 board

lezogzog I was told that the only reason for not playing on even-sized gobans is the lack of tengen. This seems to cause problems with mirror go. Is this explanation sound ? Does anybody see another one ?

Skelley: Why would/should we play on an even-sized board? I don't realy see a good reason for not playing on an odd-sized board...

unkx80: Possibly also to prevent draws when using Chinese rules.
