What if you throw this out and simply look for two games with the same end-position? I don't think there are any (other than very early resignations) but it makes for a slightly easier condition to fulfill.

First move on KGS automatch on 4-4, opp loses connection and game counts as an escape and later as a forfeit.
I think there is a high probability that there would be many more than just 2 of these games around.

I believe even if two game would be completly the same from order of moves and time to used in thinking at every move there would still have been other thoughts ins the players mind. Therefore it's impossible for me to think of 2 games which are alike.
Sorry if that's off the questions but that's what jumps to my mind while thinking about it ;)


That one is actually a very profound thought!
