Dethwing, you and I can block MatthewV off totally to allow it to be a race to the finish. But if you dont go along with it, then I will likewise concede.

In the hopes of keeping alive Im going to place a wall.

I am pretty sure that I can prevent the top right side from getting completely blocked. It should take more than placing two walls before I can defensively place my own. I could be wrong.

It can't legally be blocked off. it stops us from getting to the other side.

EDIT: never mind, i thought you were talking about the far end of the board.

As MNOWAX doesn't have any walls left, he will have to march forward.

When I will place H23IJ and it should be impossible to block me from reaching the top right corner.

For those of us who enjoy a puzzle, I did find one (and only one) move for Amb that I had no defense to if dethwing didn't want me to win.

Move left 1 to I6

MNOWAX, if you move to H6 I can jump over you and clear the wall. This will allow me to run for the exit in a race against MatthewV

I am ready to concede to MattV.Reasoning: He can guarantee himself a win in seven moves.

Yeah, there isn't a way to defeat me now as far as I can see. Interestingly, dethwing is the 2nd closest to finishing.

You know, it does make a good puzzle... Here was the board at the time. Amb's move and he has 1 wall. Dethwing and MatthewV have 3 walls. Prevent me from winning!
