Vexing Vexillological Logic (2212.10631v1)

Abstract: We define a new impartial combinatorial game, Flag Coloring, based on flood filling. We then generalize to a graph game, and find values for many positions on two colors. We demonstrate that the generalized game is PSPACE-complete for two colors or more via a reduction from Avoid True, determine the outcome classes of games based on real-world flags, and discuss remaining open problems.
