ok, i forgot which board they were talking about using only one dice and this site doesnt support the real rules of backgammon.. (which board was it that Harley said take it here?) i tried all on my list.. anyway, i hope this is going to be answered.. i just learned this game on this game site, so i didnt know any other rules, so all you gammoners who play by the rules, if ive ever used a dice wrongly, hey, i didnt know!! so now i have a ?

i just played a turn where i was booted to the bar, my turn came up and my dice were a 1 and a 6. the larger of the 2, (the 6) was not a playable number, but i was able to get out on the 1, was that legal by the rules of backgammon, or just something allowed here?
