Onderwerp: auto-pass (dont hit me, maybe here comes something new)

in backgammon, you still have to roll the dice even if there is no possibility to get in (when all places from "1" to "6" are occupied by at least two pieces of the opponent.

Maybe it could be possible to save at least that click? player still can write a message, still watches the current situation on the board, but does not have to be dissapointed by rolling the dice (and perhaps watching a good roll) before passing anyway...

hm, what do you think? or did you all discuss even this change before???

diogenes: I thought the same - until I remembered, that you only have to roll the dice in matches with doubling cube, and that you could offer a double instead of rolling the dice - not very common I guess, but the rules offer you this possibility.

Mr. Shumway: It's not exactly uncommon either. It happens after you have a lot of pieces off but get one knocked back and then completely blocked.

gambler104: If doubling is an option, then autopass is clearly not going to kick in. However the choice should be "double" or "pass".

Where doubling is not an option we should autopass.

grenv: Well in that case, I suggest to place that checkbox in every game. There is already bunch of things you can click on. One more for auto-passes couldn't hurt.
