skipinnz: Right, except that you would also have to have exited all your checkers from my home board in order to avoid a backgammon.
On some servers, it is possible to specify what kind of resignation you are offering. On Dailygammon, for example, one can offer to resign a single game, a gammon, or a backgammon. If the resignation is for the highest possible number of points based on board position, it is automatically accepted. If not, then the opponent may accept or reject. There is a lively continuing debate over the ethics of resigning less than the maximum possible result. For example, if you can still be gammoned, should you offer to resign a single game? Most people consider that to be rude and unethical.
