>the specific move is forced, rather than just being forced to make some move Thinking about this gives me headaches;-) From a language perspective I think it could be interpreted both ways, a specific move or any move. The reason I chose the latter explanation is that it fit's with the real meaning of the word: > one player is put at a disadvantage because they must make a move when they would prefer to pass and not move.[1] The point is that the player is at a disadvantage because they have to move at all and not because they are forced to make a specific move.
