I just started learning coding about 4 months ago, I think Tic-tac-toe was the first application that I've ever written in C# not counting the mandatory "Hello, World!".

So for me, I really wanted to revisit this game and code a new one, unfortunately I don't have the original code anymore, but I can assure you that it was a lot worse than whatever mess I've thrown together now ;).

Anyhow, as always both positive and negative feedback is welcome. My design goal was to try and make a "clean" and well designed Tic-tac-toe game but also to try and use concepts and programming constructs that I'm new to.

Bonus question: I'm planning to implement an "AI Player" class later on, I know that Tic-tac-toe is a solved game so there are more effective approaches for AI logic but I've never programmed an AI before so my idea is to at runtime generate a "database" of all possible gamestates, and then have the AI rank each "intermediate gamestate" by the amount of positive outcomes (that is where the AI wins) - negative outcomes when it decides where to place it's marker. Would this be a good idea? / Work at all?
