Requisite Variety

11/3.   Play and outcome.  Let us therefore forget all about regulation and simply suppose that we are watching two players, and who are engaged in a game.  We shall follow the fortunes of who is attempting to score an a.  The rules are as follows.  They have before them Table 11/3/1, which can be seen by both:

must play first, by selecting a number, and thus a particular row.  knowing this number, then selects a Greek letter, and thus a particular column.  The italic letter specified by the intersection of the row and column is the outcome.  If it is an a, wins;  if not, loses.
