playBunny + Hrqls: I leave for one day and this board gets off track . . . who knew that a backgammon board would get into hypothetical geneto-biology. ;)
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).
