So it basically shows the board again without any change...

First of all I like how you did your player loop. You are testing 'vote' for a char but it is an int. change the data type to char and see what happens.

I haven't read the whole program, but line 83 is probably not what you meant. You're assigning 1 to b instead of testing for equality.

if (vote == '1' && sq1 == '1')
Oops. The decimal ASCII code for 1 is 49. Did you mean:
if (vote == 1 && sq1 == '1')

You'll have to make a few more changes than that one line as well.

EDIT: Check filipe's note as well.
