The topology of a cubic seki resembles that of a cube. Pressed flat, that's X -------- O | \ / | | O -- X | | | | | | X -- O | | / \ | O -------- X Eight corners - the groups - connected by twelve edges - their shared liberties. Smallest ?

GeneratorTo increase the number of shared liberties, take the one below (made of the one above) and duplicate its two rows and two columns framing its 2x2 center:
etc., giving
TerminalityRobert Pauli: I guess nobody can gain anything if he starts - under territory scoring, of course (and under area scoring the gain might be equal). At i = 0 and i = 1 it's even disadvantageous. From i = 2 on, without having a proof, I feel that if both go after the weakest opposing group without touching the second to last liberty between them, nobody will be captured. True?
