playBunny: I'd start with banning danoschek from this board. He purposely goes out of his way to annoy everyone and his specialty seems to be obfuscation and obscurity.
That and his propensity of putting people that he dislikes or disagrees with on "hide" or "block user" and making it just about impossible to even give one's self a chance to make things right with him or at the very least get your side heard by him.
And don't forget all the names he calls people and somehow gets away with. Or how he looks down upon us poor valley folk while he's up there on his thrown in the hall of the mountain king laughing and calling us all fools as he basks in his splendar and all-knowing.

As for this game situation. It's not a bug, but how the game is played here. It being a game of Hyperbackgammon, I'd be willing to bet there's no such thing as "Internationally Recognized Rules". And, even if there is, we ain't playing by them. We're playing by Fencer international rules. I've always wondered why regular Backgammon has that use of the dice for the rules, or use the larger die first rule. Does everyone here think that's the best way to play Backgammon? Why not let the person choose how to play his dice? OK, OK, them ain't the "Internationally Recognized Rules" you say. But at one time the rules were different than they are now, or have you forgotten? So now we have to live with these rules? Or can't we play it as it is here? Yes, I'd just as soon play by the established rules. It'd certainly make for less grief when I hear this complaint time and again about Backgammon as it is played on this site. What Fencer should do is write in the rules section of Backgammon that it is played differently here. Clearly, and with examples. Then one could play his dice as he saw fit and not have to worry about being sporting or taking advantage of a situation. This would certainly mitigate the hard feelings and leave the problem where it belongs, with Fencer!

So, how 'bout it Fencer? Would you either make the play of Backgammon fit the so called "Internationally Recognized Rules" or could you clarify this in the rules section of the various Backgammon variants that you may play the dice to whatever advantage the player may see fit? Either way would almost certainly stop a lot of misunderstandings and hard feelings during the play of the game.
