again, it's not that i'm better at it than u are. i just know HOW TO play. understanding the winning strategy is essential here. and once u have fully apprehended it, u won't lose any more because winning a nim game doesn't depend on your luck or skills. it's like a set of tic-tac-toe; if u know the winning tactics, it will be impossible for your opponent to beat u in such a game. all nim games become predictable if u clearly understand what u need to do in order to win. no matter what your opponent does, if u always make the right moves, u will always defeat him.
on higher levels of this game, u will have to manipulate big numbers (up to 7 binary digits), but if u know what to do, they won't seem any harder than previous levels. they are no doubt time consuming, yes; some levels may require of u more than 30 minutes to get them done (there actually is a faster way to complete nim games. it's based on continuous xor'ing of binary tetrads, and is much harder to understand, so i won't talk about it here); however, they too can be won by the same principle.
