Noughts and Cross sign up

First player will be determined randomly
X and O will also be determined randomly
I will use random.wa

Rules.
The object of Noughts and Crosses is to get a winning line of three Noughts or three Crosses in either a horizontal, vertical or diagonal row.

The Noughts and Crosses board is a square grid containing nine squares arranged in threes.

 The game is played by two people who either play as Noughts (Os) or Crosses ( Xs). They can either be drawn or objects resembling these two options can be used. In giant noughts and crosses for example, the two objects are the noughts and crosses themselves.

The player with the Xs starts the game by positioning his X in a square. The player with the Os follows and both players take turns to move and occupy the squares of the grid trying to make a row of three and at the same time also block their opponent.

We will not be playing with any expansions or add on's or special rules.

Experienced players only for the first game please

Maybe in time

But there is a hidden depth of strategy to this version that few people fail to get.

I feel like there are some complex theoretical issues brought up by the rules that you ought to explore before beginning to play.

The estimated value of the first turn center space is certainly the highest.

I see commonalities here, is this a DXV game?  Given first player advantage, is there some sort of bidding process to obtain first player position?  My boast:

Given enough monkeys and enough typewriters, I can teach a chicken to play this game, while juggling (me juggling, not the chicken.)

I'll play some Battle of Wits. I'm good at that. It's a game where you decide and we both drink. Then we see who is right, and who is dead.

Seems like there'd be an awful lot of "oh I think this but wait maybe that's what he wants me to think" in that game. OITTBWMTWHWMTT for short.
