The fact that you said that was not rude. Even though you have not made it clear why it would be cheating - you say "rules are made for a purpose". So i ask, what is the purpose of this rule? No one has answered me yet, and many people have made rude posts (such as yourself) telling me to stop whining and trying to cheat, and to just accept it's a rule. I never once said i was against the rule, nor did i ever say i did not want to follow the rule, nor did i say the rule is not legitimate. I was simply questioning the rule.
so everybody who tells you to stop whining is being rude?
the rules were designed years ago, all you want to do is circumvent one of them.
and i did make it clear why it would be cheating, it's cheating because it is against the rules, the officially recognized rules of backgammon.
you could ask why you're not allowed to whip out a calculator during the course of a game also, the answer: that is also against the rules.
stop asking irrelevant questions, and just learn to play the game.
try reading paul magriel's "backgammon", it contains most of the everyday rules.

Movement of the Checkers, look at number 4
and I must add that a few of us HAVE told you exactly why it's a rule, and the significance it plays. I can only assume that you haven't played enough to see the significance. And again, I must repeat, that just because you say its a RARE occurance, doesn't make it rare. It is really NOT rare at all.
