The list so far.

1) Would be nice to have the current score up next to the playing board instead of buried down in the "game information". Or maybe next to the Points, have the current match score for each player as well.

1a) Change "Points" to "Pips".

2) In the table of "Finished games of this match" which displays who won each game, it would be nice to see how many points were won in each game (without having to select each game and counting the "D"s!)

3) In the list of games which make up a match, the winner is highlighted with a yellow background, no matter which player won. (Example) It would be easier to read that table if each player had a different colour. So Marfitalu could be in yellow (when he won) and Tulip in cyan (when she won). The loser would always be in white, though.

4) A time out forfeits the whole match, not just the current game.
[playBunny: i don't like this one. My opponent in a 5-pointer is about to time out. I don't like winning that way. We're bearing off and I've effectively won already, so it's okay, but I'd hate to get the whole match just because he missed the end of this game.]

5) No draw offers on single games.

6) Show the cube on the correct side of the board after a double has been accepted. That is, with the owner, the one who is able to offer a double.
Done

7) Change the "D" and "+" in the moves list to "Double" and "Take". [Fencer says that's a biggie because notation is language-neutral and the the notation code was designed without translation requirements in mind. Might be okay if other languages don't mind "Double", "Take" and "Drop", perhaps?]

8) For completeness, Add an explicit "Drop" to the moves list (though it would be "-" in the current notation).

9) Auto-roll. Doesn't give the Dice/double choice but goes straight to the dice. Useful for players when they know they won't be doubling for a while.

10) Buttons for [Roll] and [Double] instead of links.

11) Use the words "Take" and "Drop" on the "double-offered" buttons rather than "Accept" and Reject". (Dropping the cube makes more sense to me anyway because it also means dropping the game.)

12) A note at the end of the moves list of a finished game saying "XXX wins P points (Cube 2 x N)" where N is the "degree" of the game, 1, 2 or 3.

13) Display the dice roll in the moves list. [This one's a high priority for me]

14) Implement the request-resign-accept/deny dialogue.
14a) Or highlist the "Warning: N points will be lost" message, for example, in red.

15) Allow the whole match to be resigned.
