Two constructions relating to conjectures of Beck on positional games
  In this paper, we construct two hypergraphs which exhibit the following properties. We first construct a hypergraph $G_{CP}$ and show that Breaker wins the Maker-Breaker game on $G_{CP}$, but Chooser wins the Chooser-Picker game on $G_{CP}$. This disproves an (informally stated) conjecture of Beck. Our second construction relates to Beck's Neighbourhood Conjecture, which (in its weakest form) states that there exists $c > 1$ such that Breaker wins the Maker-Breaker game on any $n$-uniform hypergraph $G$ of maximum degree at most $c^n$. We consider the case n=4 and construct a 4-graph $G_4$ with maximum vertex degree 3, such that Maker wins the Maker-Breaker game on $G_4$. This answers a question of Leader.
