====End==== * [[#End|Rule 9]].<ref>[https://sentego.net/how-to-play-go/ Elementary Rules] of James Davies: "Two consecutive passes end the game."</ref> '''End:''' The game ends when both players have passed consecutively. The ''final position'' is the position on the board at the time the players pass consecutively. ** [[#Territory|Definition]].<ref>[https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~wjh/go/rules/AGA.html Official AGA Rules of Go], Rule 12: "Territory: Those empty points on the board which are entirely surrounded by live stones of a single color are considered the ''territory'' of the player of that color."</ref><ref>Though the Simplified Ing Rules use the word "territory" differently, they describe what is here defined to be a player's territory as consisting of "the empty regions that are adjacent only to intersections with stones of a player's colour". The Commentary to the rules further specifies: "During scoring, an empty region does not provide any points if a) it is adjacent to at least one black intersection and adjacent to at least one white intersection or b) the whole board is empty."</ref> '''("Territory")''' In the final position, an empty intersection is said to belong to a player's ''territory'' if all stones adjacent to it or to an empty intersection connected to it are of that player's color. ** [[#Area|Definition]].<ref>[https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~wjh/go/rules/AGA.html Official AGA Rules of Go], Rule 12: "Area: All live stones of a player's color left on the board together with any points of territory surrounded by a player constitute that player's ''area''."</ref> '''("Area")''' In the final position, an intersection is said to belong to a player's ''area'' if either: 1) it belongs to that player's territory; or 2) it is occupied by a stone of that player's color. ** [[#Score|Definition]].<ref>[http://home.snafu.de/jasiek/siming.html Simplified Ing Rules] of the EGF: "The ''score'' of each player is the number of all intersections a) with stones of the player's color, and b) of the empty regions that are adjacent only to intersections with stones of the player's color."</ref> '''("Score")''' A player's ''score'' is the number of intersections in their area in the final position. * [[#Winner|Rule 10]].<ref>[http://home.snafu.de/jasiek/siming.html Simplified Ing Rules] of the EGF: "For the final position, either the scores are unequal and the winner is the player with the greater score or the scores are equal and the game is a tie."</ref> '''Winner:''' If one player has a higher score than the other, then that player wins. Otherwise, the game is a draw.
