Thema: Re: Auto Pass in Backgammon

tonyh: This was discussed some years ago. and I promised to reinstate my paying membership when it was implemented. One also needs the ability to resign and not concede a gammon, thus avoiding many tedious moves until a gammon situation is (inevitably) avoided.

Thema: Re: Auto Pass in Backgammon

pgt: agree completely about the gammon situation; what we need is for the player who is bearing off to be able to finish the game, when he reckons the chance of a gammon has disappeared. That is what happens in over the board play.

Thema: Re: Auto Pass in Backgammon

tonyh: Simple solution... if the player losing can resign and offer a point, the winning player can reject and continue playing for a gammon. Either that or the system is smart enough to know a gammon is unattainable before a piece is actually borne off - particularly in positions where the winning player can't double and end it quickly that way.
