Dear everybody,



Please remember that gammons DO count in Triple Gammon tournaments.  Even though
each match is a single game, the scoring takes gammons and backgammons
into account.  Therefore, do not resign a game before you have borne
off a checker, if you have any chance of doing so.  Similarly, do not
resign if you still have checkers on the bar or in your opponent's home
table.  You will be giving your opponent points he or she may not have
earned if the game were played to conclusion.



(This just happened to me, an opponent resigned too soon.  I might have gotten the gammon, but it was not assured.)
