Subject: doubling cube

I think it should be handled like it is at IYT... they have a version with it, and a version without it. The version with it, is a 5 point game. Maybe here we could decide for ourselves when creating the game how many points it would be..(which of course we already do with multi point matches)
I definitely wish the doubling cube was here.. and I'm sure at some point, it will be.
But as discussed a while back on the backgammon discussion board, I would rather backgammon be fixed to follow the "if you CAN use both dice, you MUST" rule, first.

Subject: if you CAN use both dice, you MUST

was added by people who don't like to cope with the entire smartness
of the game and, should be abandoned anyway ... as we do here ... ~*~

Subject: Re: "if you can use both dice you must"

What a foolish thing to say.
It has NOT been "abandoned" here. I believe we were told that at some point it WOULD be implemented. If you don't care to follow the rules, you certainly don't have to play.
Not playing by the rules is CHEATING. No RESPECTABLE game lover wants to cheat. Period.

Subject: foolish statements

are as usual coming from you ...

playing to the rules is playing to the rules ...
you wanted to change them - I did not call that cheating either
just (go figure) ignorant ... as to believe bigger words have bigger meanings ~*~
