rod03801, aaru: That's very interesting. One from 2011, one from 2013 and one from 2014, so far. Rare as Fabergé eggs, perhaps, but not as rare as hen's teeth.
playBunny: Back in Jan 2011 (yet not that many posts ago), I asked if anyone had spotted a Ludo "backgammon", defined as the loser having all four pieces still in their base at the end. I'm sure that there must have been a few but I've not seen one myself until this game.
Now what we need is an example of a "perfect backgammon", where the hapless loser doesn't even get out of their base even once. I think that it could be a long time before we see one of those.
Has any one suffered a Ludo "backgammon" or inflicted one on their opponent? This is a game where the loser still has all 4 men in the base at the end.
The "gammon" would be where the base isn't full but no man has reached home yet. More likely but still probably a pretty rare occurence.
Not sure if anyone else has thought about a ludo variant where you get two rolls each turn, and you can use both rolls for a single piece or one roll for each piece... Similar to "Sorry!". I think it would be a great addition in an area where we have little to choose from...
Shoot me a message if you have questions about it...
How often does a Ludo game come along where one of the players doesn’t have any choices to make throughout the entire game? Ludo (KJ vs. MTC) – if AutoMove/AutoPlay (still) existed, I wouldn’t have needed to play a single move.
For a further question, has anyone seen a completed game where neither player had any choices to make?
