pgt: No, the biggest weakness is that tournaments don't progress once all the meaningful games are complete, but having to roll the dice when you have no legal move does come in second. ;-)

pgt: Autopass does this

AlliumCepa: Not when you have the cube.

nabla: In fact, alanback has proposed a week ago to have this option implemented: "Skip my turns until I actually have a chance to move a piece". He was referring to a game with the cube while some has a piece on bar. It is unlikely to double while waiting and your only job is press "Roll" - "Submit" - "Roll" - "Submit"...

AlliumCepa: The problem is with the way fencer has implemented 'auto pass' here is that it is not only used when there are no possible rolls that will make a move possible, but also when the dice rolled has no possible moves associated with it.

pgt: I agree with you, autopass (or the lack of it) is still the #1 weakness of BK.

pgt:  In fact, it would be useful to be able to turn off the cube altogether, so you wouldn't have to choose between rolling the dice and doubling on each turn in situations where you know you won't be doubling.

alanback: Terrific idea ! Turn off / turn on the cube would solve the autopass when owning the cube problem and do much more in the same time. There should be some red warning besides the board that says "you have turned off the cube in this game", though.
