Pedro Martínez: as I said earlier, I may have had all the checkers out of the 1st quadrant at one time or another and had them set back, I have had that happen in hyper-backgammon and only received 2 points also
Vikings: Yes, you should've gotten 6 points. I don't play "cubed" anti-backgammon because of this bug right now, since it is a major flaw, in my opinion.
Pedro Martínez: my bad, it looks like they were all resignations, but here is a link to where I received 4 points but may have been eligible to receive 6 http://brainking.com/en/ArchivedGame?g=1177229
Pedro Martínez: actually I have gotten many gammons with a double and received 4 points, I have also gotten backgammons with a double but also received 4 points, I just assumed that I had gotten the checkers out and had them sent back
grenv: SCAM!!! He should be drawn and quartered, figuratively speaking of course. I say we flood his games page with challenges, until he either has to play some people or delete, say, 200 challenges a day...
Czuch Chuckers: If a person is ignorant, your time is better spent educating him than insulting him. If he is truly a fool, nothing you can say will change that, so why take that negativity upon yourself?
grenv: Aye, ignorance is something that we should scorn and look down upon. Let the fools and their money be parted. We who are clever and smart an on the ball can profit by them and good luck to any of us who does so in a systematic way. Don't suffer the fools gladly - gladly make the fools suffer!
wellywales: the problem is that this isnt really cheating .. its misguiding their opponents .. but all inside the rules .. its abusing a feature .. but not cheating (imo)
the 2 top players of hyper gammon though ... that might be something different .. but even about that i am not too sure :)
playBunny: the truth is though, everyone that gets suckered by that player have accepted the time control, there is no help for ignorance.(the player shall remain nameless but we've all seen the name many times). I offered that player a game of Dark Battleboats on a 7-day limit and he vehemently declined without much explanation (of course it can be guessed).
Groucho: It's a tough question. The purpose of the clock is to encourage fast play. A game with a hour total and no bonus is going to be over in two hours maximum. But I've had games that have been quicker yet had 1 day clocks. That was against opponents who had my speed style, were online at the same time and didn't have hundreds of games to play.
Strangely enough the Very Fast Fischer's Stairs that I play has been slower moving than the ordinary Stairs!
Groucho: some players like to play fast ... there are quite some 1 hour tournaments which are popular among some people ... its almost like playing realtime :)
(hjem) Hvis du vil spille et spill med en motspiller som er på omtrent samme nivå kan du sette opp et ønsket BKR-område for invitasjonen. Da er det ingen andre som se og akseptere invitasjonen. (Katechka) (Vis alle tips)
