I know how to play backgammon. I found that I could move a piece backward in the game, which is something that shouldn't be allowed. -----Original Message----- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Hayden Presley Sent: Tuesday, August 21, 2012 5:01 PM To: 'Gamers Discussion list' Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Pontes Backgammon Hi, NO, you cannot move backward; that is something that is never done in Backgammon. As for replacing a piece you've picked up, that's something I've wanted Emanuel to address for awhile now--I find it slightly irritating that you cannot do so.
