Subject: Just to change the subject

And to point out another anomaly resulting from trying to fit the backgammon peg into the chess hole ... consider this display of the score in a tournament final round:

Top 50 Backgammon Race (Invitational)

What would you guess is the score of this 11 point final match?

If you guessed 4-3, you are wrong ... the score is 8-4.

alanback: That's because you used the doubling cube.

edit: Sorry, I see what you mean now.

alanback: So that is more of just a display issue - since the site was "built" with 1 point for win, 1/2 point for tie, 0 points for lose.

Probable needs to be changed for when the double cube is used, instead of "1" - it needs to be how many points was won.
