11. Juin 2008, 19:20:18 Sujet: Wow, I learn something new everyday! modifié par LionsLair (11. Juin 2008, 20:29:14) Today I learn that you could avoid a backgammon by resigning the game as my opponent did in this game. Backgammon (LionsLair vs. AlliumCepa) Thus only giving up one point instead of 3. I'll have to use this info for future reference when I find myself in that situation. Tis a sad way to play in MHO, but if the system lets you... as the old saying goes, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! 11. Juin 2008, 19:29:36 Sujet: Re: Wow, I learn something new everyday! LionsLair: you didnt have to accept the resignation. 11. Juin 2008, 19:33:29 Sujet: Re: Wow, I learn something new everyday!  LionsLair: Can you get 3 points in a 5 win match without cube? 11. Juin 2008, 19:36:36 Sujet: Re: Wow, I learn something new everyday! Andersp: lol I didn't look at the game, good point Andersp, a gammon etc in those type of games is irrelevant. 11. Juin 2008, 20:27:24 Sujet: Re: Wow, I learn something new everyday! Andersp: Oops! my bad! I didn't realize it was a 5 game match and not a 5 point match. That makes all the difference in the world. I guess I was having a blonde moment so to speak and was looking more forward to the rare backgammon... My apologies! 11. Juin 2008, 20:19:13 Sujet: Re: Wow, I learn something new everyday!  LionsLair: Yup - like Andersp said - it is a 5 WIN match - does not use the cube, so even if you won by a gammon, you would still only get 1 win. As a side note for cube games, I'm pretty sure you are given the points where the current pieces are - so a early resignation will lose the person a gammon. 12.

It'll be a backgammon until the backrunners are clear of the opponent's home and that's often way into the mid game and later. 13.

No, it's a backgammon only if there are pieces in the opponent's home or on the bar and none of your own already borne off. iirc, you can't resign and lose a gammon If you resign when you're clear of your opponent's home then you'll be asked to confirm losing a gammon. |
