ok... i prob shouldnt involve myself in this convo as i am a lil tipsy but.... the simple argument as i see it is if the "Angel" knows what the "Devil" is doing. If the angel is simply flitting about the board in a vain attempt to find the devil with no knowledge of where said devil is then there is a chance in the realm of infintite possibilites that the devil could encase the angel in an as mentioned "moat" on the seeming outer reaches of infinity. If the Angel happens across said devils actions he would only have to move out further and start again.

I guess the question is, what is the likelyhood of the angel discovering the devils activities within the bounds of infinity?

:nuts:

id give the angel a karmic advantage if they corresponded to the same religion

I think devil can't win until he's somehow able to anticipate angel's movements.

He can't even if he can anticipate the angel's movements and the angel doesn't make any significantly stupid moves.

I think I already said that.

Anyway, the guy who wrote the article Russ linked promises a far greater reward for proving the devil can win than the angel can, because he deems the former unlikelier, I guess.
