online tic tac toe

[staticv]

I'm developing a tic tac toe multiplayer game, the game is up and it is working on a single pc, I want it to be playable across two computers in LAN, I'll be using TCP/IP for this and I have already set up a chat server program. So I know how to do communication. The concern is that I have a GameBoard class which does everything, from making a move, to restarting the game and checking for winner etc. It is independent of the form except of the mouse clicks, the form just reads in the GameBoard's properties, attributes and updates itself. How may I expand it into a multiplayer game, I want to establish a client to client architecture, should I expand the GameBoard class, should I serialize the GameBoard class and deserialize it on the other side, or just send the specific move done? Whats good, please tell me and help me out how it will be done. I mean just the head up :)

If you didn't think of multi-player when designing it in the first place, you may need to do some refactoring like splitting a class into multiple classes. It is always better performance to send across as little as possible. So you should probably send only the moves done rather than the entire class.
