Re: Backgammon v2 - coming soon !

This is unambiguously a positive development. Perhaps the Doubling Capability, and/or Match Play will be a variant available on setup.

I think the thing I will miss the most is not discovering the opponent's roll upon completion of my play. On the other hand perhaps that's a blessing.

Re: create game in normal mode

So Jest, You are confirming then that the user is NOT allowed WHEN PLAYING WITH FRIENDS to customize their default Mode Setting to Normal, and therefore must select it every time. The "Um" in your response suggests that my clarification was answered by your "B" when you suggested...

Re: create game in normal mode

I found this thread because I couldn't find a way to change my default mode to normal WHEN PLAYING WITH FRIENDS on this site. I CAN for most ways of starting a game choose a gear on the left side of the game to set my defaults for any number of things. But when starting a turn-based game with a frie...

Re: Explanation of Statistics sought

I am really seeking an explanation of statistics: particularly, how statistics of conceded games are handled. Please do not hijack this thread to complain about luck. Start another thread if you have to do that.

Many thanks!

Going negative on time, but winning anyway

I think the answer is that I just have really nice opponents, but a number of times I have won games in which I've been in the red for the last several moves.
