mctrivia: The current autopass means that the game plays itself while you're stuck. This idea isn't like that. It's only applicable when neither side can move. That's the case at the start of 5/6 games. There's no value in watching non-sixes being rolled at this stage. Putting autopass on would mean missing the start if it's the opponent who gets the 6. They'll charge off around the board without a single view of the board being shown. In the very rare worst case the game ends before you get out and you don't see a thing. In the usual case they get one or two, maybe even three or four, men out.

There's also the situation during a game when both sides have done all that they can (all the pieces that are out have been pushed as far into their home as possible, only the base pieces have any potential) and the players are back to rolling like mad to get a 6. The same deal could be used there. In the game record (if you keep one) you could list all the non-6 rolls and passes but the next page view for the player would be whoever's 6 it was.

A suggested name for this option would be autosixes. ;-)
