extis the cycle.

can to nothing more but to also play outside the cycle. Both sides played one move each outside the cycle, what they could have done anyway.
Therafter, Black has to options:
UP:He plays another move outside the cycle.
Status confirmation will continue elsewhere.
DOWN:He captures into the double-ko, so re-entering the cycle.
White must exit the cycle again.
Therafter, Black has to options:
++ UP:He fills the remaining ko-shape.
Status confirmation will continue elsewhere.
++ LEFT:He plays another move outside the cycle.
Therafter, White has to options:
** UP:She captures into the remaining ko-shape, so re-entering the cycle. Both side simulated the SIMPLE-ko cycle without breaking the rules.
** RIGHT:She plays another move outside the cycle.

Black's exit has already been the exemplary case.
We added White's exit (to the left).
White could also enter the GENUINE double-ko cycle by occupying Black's liberty (to the right).

outside the cycle (left).-- White can do nothing else but to also play a move outside the cycle.
Both sides played one move each outside the cycle, what they could have done anyway.
Black has two options thereafter:
++ LEFT:He continues with another move outside the cycle.
Status confirmation will take place elsewhere.
++ RIGHT:He captures into the double ko, so re-entering the cycle.
However, this does not make any sense, as the position is seki anyway.

White plays
![white with triangle :wt:](./images/smilies/wt.gif)
outside the cycle. Black has three options now.
LEFT:![black with circle :bc:](./images/smilies/bc.gif)
fills the remaining ko-shape.
This end status confirmation. The final position is "me ari me nashi".
This option is the ADVISABLE one.
RIGHT:![black with circle :bc:](./images/smilies/bc.gif)
occupies the SHARED liberty.
This exits to ASYMMETRICAL triple-ko cycles #1.
MIDDLE:![black with triangle :bt:](./images/smilies/bt.gif)
is also played outside the triple-ko.
White has no other choice but to play another move outside the cycle.
Status confirmation continues elsewhere.

Black plays
![black with triangle :bt:](./images/smilies/bt.gif)
outside the cycle.
White can do nothing else but to play a move outside the circle, too.
Black has three options thereafter:.
LEFT:![black with circle :bc:](./images/smilies/bc.gif)
captures into the remaining ko-shape.
This exits to the status assessment for Black groups above.
RIGHT:![black with circle :bc:](./images/smilies/bc.gif)
occupies the SHARED liberty.
This exits to ASYMMETRICAL triple-ko cycle #1.
MIDDLE:![black with triangle :bt:](./images/smilies/bt.gif)
is played outside the triple-ko for another time.
White has no other choice but to also play another move outside the cycle.
It is likely that status confirmation will take place elsewhere.
