This could be useful for collaborative undo as well. Give each player
an independent game state, but in the collaborative mode, display both
players' numbers, in a color showing which player filled them in. In
case of disagreement, show both. That solves any possible
synchronization/lag problems, but you do see one combined board in the
end.
