I had already used F3 to change the numbering to 1 to 24, which is what I prefer while playing.
I keep meaning to try again, but never seem to get back to the game. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of dark Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2012 4:33 AM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Pontes Backgammon As I said, i don't remember such a bug myself. Are you certain you were moving it backwards? what I mean is, the squares are numbers a1/a12, then b1/b12. so, when you move from the top of the a row, you are on the top of the B row, thus, if you moved a checker one space from a12 it'd be on b12, one more would take it to b11, and so on down the B row. So, I wonder if perhaps you were looking at the wrong row numbers wise? There is also an option to have the spaces numbered 1-24 as an alternative if you prefer. Just a thought. Beware the Grue!
