Emne: Re:
Nothingness: Honestly, there would have to be some interestingly bad playing for that situation to arise, I imagine. But I suppose it could happen between people new to the game, or just kind of "randomly" playing.

I personally have never seen that happen. In my opinion, the way the rule is written here,

"One of the players still has some own pieces at his/her yard and made more than 30 (for 8x8 version) or 50 (for 10x10 version) moves. This player loses the game. The player also loses the game if he/she moves one of his/her pieces back to own yard after the 30th (50th) move. This rule prevents the players to block own yard and avoid the opponent to move his/her pieces there."

In looking around the internet a little bit, I get the impression that this is a "newer" rule, since sites like this came about. One place I read that normally, in face to face competition, moves aren't even counted. (Which makes sense)

As with many games, there are different philosophies too. Some rules state that once you are in the opposite yard, you can move within that yard, but can't move out of it. We CAN move out of it here. Another site I play at has a "forced" move rule, where if your opponent is completely out if his yard, and you still have pieces in your yard, you are forced to move out. (Regardless of move #)

I would think that temporarily going into the yard, in the middle of a series of jumps would be ok, but not ending there. I suppose the only way to know how it is HERE would be to try it, or ask Fencer how he programmed it. I don't think I've ever had a game get to that move #, so I've never seen it.

Nothingness 
Rule question: Lets say its move 75 and i see a combo that requires me to temporarily move a piece backinto my home turf in the midddle of a 7 move combo. the start of the move is off of my turf and it finished off of my turf i only need to jump over a few enemy pieces for a multi jump. Will i lose?

Emne: Re: rule idea
dAGGER: I have overlooked one thing: one could form a blocking position to keep the opponent out of the own yard. This is prevented by the current rule.

It was just a thought, motivated by my dislike of rules with arbitrary numbers like "after 30 moves".

Emne: Re: rule idea
Thom27:
I think this new rule would change nothing in the game strategy. If you realize your opponent is filling up your yard, you will go out very soon.
Tha actual rule leaves you the chance of blocking your opponent in his yard and ending the game faster (if he accepts to resign).

Emne: rule idea
would it make sense to change the winning condition in Halma to the following:

"a player wins if, after the opponent made the first move, all squares of the opponent's yard are occupied (by pieces of any color)"

This makes the 30 / 50-moves rule superfluous. If a player leaves a piece in their yard, it can be used by the opponent to fill up the yard.

Emne: Moderator Needed.
Would you like to take on a little extra responsibility at Brainking?

If so, this discussion board needs a new moderator.

If you visit Brainking daily and understand the User Agreeement and want to help out, please PM me or any other Global Moderator (see Brainking Staff page), and let one of us know you might be interested.

It is not necessary to be a Halma expert to moderate the board. It is helpful if you play the game, but not a requirement.

    Baddessi is a wonderful, wonderful person and is extremely dedicated to this site. She is a huge asset to the world of online games playing and brainking should be proud to have her here.
