Ämne: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
Could not auto-pass work, even when you need to roll the dice but there is no way on (ie all the opponent's home squares are blocked). In a real otb game, I would just sit back and wait for the other uy to clear a space. No way do I roll the dice!!

tonyh: not when there's a doubling cube
ok, little chance the guy would double when he needs to enter into a blocked home, but still, it's a legal move.

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
rabbitoid: Simple solution; have a button next to "move" that says "move and autopass" - which you click when you know you don't want to double...

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
tonyh: What's the point? it wouldn't be "auto", the guy still has to click. As it is, you click twice: once on the "roll dice" then a "move" button. your way it would save one click. big deal

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
rabbitoid: I think that "move and autopass" would tell the server that the player won't double in the next turn. So if he can't move a checker then, the server will autopass instead of giving him the opportunity to double.

Good idea, BTW.

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
Thom27: Correct, and it would continue to autopass from then on until a move is possible.

grenv: Correct; that is a good option. Gets the game moe like real life.

tonyh:  It can be a dangerous option.  I can see how you might regret having chosen it, if your opponent happened to roll some anti-jokers.

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
wetware: What are 'anti-jokers'? And you do realise that, as soon as there is a space, you would be rolling the dice again.

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
tonyh: Ahh...I see what you mean.  Sounds good in theory, but I'm not a fan of the dice-rolling routines here.  It's a looooooong story...

Anti-joker:  a very bad dice roll--opposite of a "joker".  In this context, a roll or series of rolls that would force a player to leave a home board blot or blots.

grenv 
Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
wetware: If there's a blot then presumably you could come off and therefore the option to double could become available again. This need only be for when there is no chance of coming off and rolling is not necessary...

wetware: I've just got caught in a game, where I have to throw but cannot get on. i'm utterly fed up with having to make a useless move! What a waste of time.

tonyh: Hey, take it easy, man. It's just a meaningless detail, compared to, say, the situation in Japan or Libya. Don't take this site so seriously.

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
Fencer: There is nothing I (or you) can do about Libya or Japan! I cannot fix the universe or the debt induced crash. So, let us attend to the things we can fix, like making coffee or playing backgammon. Don't you take this great site of yours seriously?

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
tonyh: Actually I don't take it seriously as much as 10 years ago. Since some people are never satisfied, it's not worth the effort. Don't take it personally.
I mean that I have many other interests and BrainKing is just one of them. Not the only one.

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
grenv: When auto-pass was being discussed, I suggested that we could (inside a game) select auto-pass for "x" turns, in order to surpass the "I don't recognize this game" problem. Of course this was on the time that auto-pass was asked to be possible on a inside game option (and not for all the games of that type as it is now). Maybe this could prevent the anti-jokers situation

Ämne: Re: Rolling Dice and Auto-pass
tonyh:  LOL...every so often in such cases in over-the-board play, I do roll the dice (and I feel like an idiot).  Mostly because I've gotten so used to having to roll in online play!
