(#5597973) Stacking Word O'Rama Race Around Rules
Posted by heyred72 on 25 Apr 2024 at 2:15PMPart of the rules seem to have been omitted. There's no reference to the "stacking" part, which is not a real problem if you've played one of the other stacking variants, but is a problem for someone who hasn't. I think this part of the "Stacking Crossdowns" rules should be added in the Play section:
Tiles may be played on the board in blank squares or on squares already occupied by other letter tiles, in which case the tile being played is placed on top of the tile already on the board, effectively replacing it. A tile cannot be replaced for another tile with the same letter on it. At least one tile must be played to an empty square before a move will be considered valid.

Subject: Your club tournament Team Cribbage game was a draw
Your club tournament game of Team Cribbage against Gary, angie , shillotte has ended in a draw.
You have been awarded a gold token for this game.
You may review the game (#14157273) if you desire.
Tournament link https://www.goldtoken.com/games/tournaments?st=215484
Game 1 seems to be alright, shows Gary has timed out - Games 2-4 shows The next move must be made within time up to avoid a timeout.
(#5595783) Re: inbox messages
Posted by Pinksmoke on 16 Apr 2024 at 7:35AMGary is on guest status so his games should timeout. So hopefully you shouldn't get any more emails.

(#5595765) Re: Fire Spiller Tourne Case Partners
Posted by rabbitoid on 16 Apr 2024 at 4:04AMGT has its own ideas about draws. You can offer/accept a draw in any game, even in games that normally cannot end in draw, such as backgammon and variants.
(#5595699) Fire Spiller Tourne Case Partners
Posted by Big Giant Head on 16 Apr 2024 at 2:29AMI raised this issue a while ago - If your team loses at Fire Spiller Toure Case Partners you receive a silver token when it should be a wooden one. I just lost a game and got a silver.
In this game you either win or lose, so only gold or wood tokens.

(#5594078) Re: Mentalis game
Posted by Gilmour on 9 Apr 2024 at 12:59PMIt was actually my opponent (on turn 31) who was supposed to get the two flips, as he is out of tiles. He only got one flip (at D1), and said he didn't even chose that piece.

Posted by rabbitoid on 6 Apr 2024 at 4:23AMThat's one of the symptoms.
The main bug is that the game didn't stop when I had 102 points.
It recognized a "final clue" which it posted explicitly, but then went on.

(#5593224) Hanging DiceMan is acting up again
Posted by rabbitoid on 6 Apr 2024 at 1:10AM#14246441
my move 54: https://www.goldtoken.com/games/play?g=14246441;v=108 . My guess was correct, I reached 102 points which should end the game. The board shows the solution (which usually happens in hangman variants only when the game ends):
{ Image: i.ibb.co/Kw1Xzpb/Screenshot-from-2024-04-06-09-42-48.png }
The game does NOT end. I asked agony of deFeet to make a move, she did.
The board now shows the new word with nothing guessed. In the box on top I see:
Hanging DiceMan: agony of deFeet vs. rabbitoid
agony of deFeet has won the previous round. Your word was: OFF TO A FAST START. Pick a letter to guess: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.
You are currently guessing a single letter. You can try to guess the entire puzzle instead.
(wrong, the guess was mine)
the guess list below the board shows
Player 1: agony of deFeet (1717 T) [Clock: 20:13:42:] : 8 points, guessed: MADE-FOR-TV MOVIE, DAIRY FARMER, HOW NOW BROWN COW, IT MAKES MY BLOOD BOIL AN EGG, BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER, STAY-AT-HOME DADS, DO YOU COME FROM A LAND DOWN UNDER?, THE DECK OF THE SHIP, LET IT BE, THEME RESTAURANT, OFF TO A FAST START
Player 2: rabbitoid (1687 T) [Clock: 12:03:56:] : 102 points, guessed: SIR ISAAC NEWTON, STOMACH CRUNCH THE NUMBERS, TENT POLE VAULT, A DOG CHASING ITS TAIL, DEDICATED DETERMINED DEPENDABLE, OFF TO A FAST START
The game seems a bit confused, lol. I'm leaving it as it is for analysis. There's no hurry, the tournament was won anyway by someone else.

(#5589116) Re: Another Mexican Train issue - this time at the start of a round
Posted by Nukkle Dragger on 21 Mar 2024 at 8:08PMSome more info:
Looking at this game even closer, I also noticed that for the turns in question, while the game log was indicating "draw bone, pass" for each of my moves, it was not actually adding Bones to my hand - my hand stayed unchanged.
Meanwhile, my opponent was also showing "draw bone, pass" but their bone count was going up with each turn, until they drew a playable bone.
(#5589115) Another Mexican Train issue - this time at the start of a round
Posted by Nukkle Dragger on 21 Mar 2024 at 7:40PMGame #14211301
At the beginning of round 8, turn 176, my opponent ended their initial move with a double 12.
Turn 177, I made my initial move, but had a bone with a 12 on it left in my hand.
- my expectation was that my opponent would pick one bone, and if that was not a 12, then it would be my turn (178) to play my bone with a 12.
- instead, the system went back and forth picking bones for both of us, until my opponent picked a 12, and then they played it.
-- Thus the system picked bones on my behalf in turns 178 to 184, even tho I had a playable bone to satisfy the double 12.
This seems like a new behavior, as I've seen examples of this situation being played out correctly in the past. Please have a look.
(#5589002) Re: Game #14265380 - Tic Tac Stack
Posted by Mignon on 21 Mar 2024 at 10:31AMI kept trying to play. I reloaded several times to no avail. I shut down and rebooted to no avail.
It wasn't letting me pick UP any of my pieces. Finally left it for a while and just tried again.
Not sure what happened, but I was finally able to pick up a piece and take my turn. Whatever
the "bug" was, it seems to have cleared up on it's own now. Problem solved... for now at least.

Posted by Mignon on 21 Mar 2024 at 7:19AMSomething is wrong with Tic Tac Stack
game #14265380. It won't let me pick up a tile
to place on the board. I even tried picking up my other tiles (even though they aren't the one I wanted to use!) and it won't let me pick up ANY of my tiles. What do I do now??? I CAN'T PLAY!

So I am reporting it here.
(#5584156) Re: Marked Halma
Posted by rabbitoid on 2 Mar 2024 at 12:40AMYes, if a rule is added and carried over to the variants it should be added to the rules file for each variant where it is implemented.
It's a good thing we have this board, Mecir can't be expected to think about everything.
(#5584110) Re: Marked Halma
Posted by Straycat on 1 Mar 2024 at 6:33PMThanks for clarifying but there's no mention of "forced moves" on the Marked Halma rules page. Perhaps this should be added as not to cause confusion in the future.

The above game was completed today with Gertess being declared the winner. The runs scored per inning (4 runs each) do not match up with the Total Runs scored
I have seen these irregularities in other That Baseball Game games
Is this an isolated problem or do other players see these glitches as well?
(#5580832) Re: BUG REPORT
Posted by rabbitoid on 20 Feb 2024 at 6:43AMWhen I look at the game I don't see a 10x16 board, I se a 10x10 board, but with a stretched title. It seems the system tries to display "**YANKEE ROSE*JR FRANK PAB's board" on a small display and experiences a nervous breakdown, LOL.
It's probably just someone tinkering with the graphics display for this game
(#5580814) Re: BUG REPORT
Posted by Mignon on 20 Feb 2024 at 5:00AMThe second game with a bug is game #14224431. The same problem -
my opponent's grid is 10 x 16 squares on this game as well.
I don't think the problem is with my computer because I tried playing
on a different computer and there was still a problem with the display
on my opponent's grid. My grid displays correctly on both games.
Thank you in advance for trying to help us resolve this problem.
(#5580812) BUG REPORT
Posted by Mignon on 20 Feb 2024 at 4:50AMI am suddenly having an issue with the display of my opponent's grid on Salvo game #14224432.
We actually have two games going, and this is one of them.
My grid is displaying correctly with 10 x 10 squares. My opponent's grid is showing 10 x 16 squares making it very difficult for me to take my turn. Could someone please help fix this bug?
When our games (there are two of them) first started the grids were displaying correctly, then suddenly yesterday the problem began.
I am using a Chromebook with Google OS.
I have no idea what "version" it is, or how to find that info.

Posted by Jools on 13 Feb 2024 at 8:10PMFrom beta testing I seem to remember it's possible to have a turn with no valid moves
(#5579066) Re: Grand Dice Chess
Posted by Big Giant Head on 13 Feb 2024 at 4:13PMMy dice roll means I can move one rook, one pawn and two bishops.
It might be intentional - I originally believed that the dice would only choose between those pieces that can move but the rules state the dice will not choose pieces that are no longer on the board. No moves are mandatory so you I could have rolled four rooks and be unable to move.
I would like a clarification if this was intended or not, just for my piece of mind.

Posted by eliphont551 on 13 Feb 2024 at 2:51PMThe object of the game is to move all of your pieces to the other end of the board before your opponent does. The other player is on the safe pip. This is where you stack the 3 men to win the game.

(#5575995) Re: How is this game not over?
Posted by Mecir on 1 Feb 2024 at 6:03AMThis is now fixed.
It was a remarkably obscure bug - it triggered because the queen drop happened immediately after the g7->g5 move, and the game incorrectly thought that the h7 pawn can en-passant capture the white queen. Should be all fixed up now.

Posted by Dragon Jr on 31 Jan 2024 at 5:57AMIn game #13053251, I gave checkmate by dropping a figure onto the board. This was recognized by the program, and the game ended properly.

(#5575678) Re: How is this game not over?
Posted by rabbitoid on 31 Jan 2024 at 4:48AMSecondary bug: once the queen was on the board giving checkmate, the software permitted the black move 27: hxg6 which makes no sense at all. The check is not resolved; the black pawn "captured" an empty field making the black pawn on g5 disappear. I guess that here the software was totally confused.
(#5575676) Re: How is this game not over?
Posted by rabbitoid on 31 Jan 2024 at 4:30AMNote: this is a very special case, extremely rare, specific to the variant Chessgi. A piece is dropped on the board which renders the opposing king checkmate. The rules handle this case explicitely:
It is perfectly legal to drop a piece onto the board such that the opposing king is placed in check or even checkmate.
Apparently this possibility was foreseen, but incorrectly coded. The checkmate was not recognized by the software.
(#5575663) Re: How is this game not over?

(#5568094) Re: Mexican Train – Empty Boneyard Behavior
Posted by Nukkle Dragger on 3 Jan 2024 at 9:06PMSo this report never got responded to... but I have another example of this behavior which I believe is incorrect.
Game#14099037 - End of round 1, Turn 50 - after I played 8-12, my opponent should have been forced to pass a turn, and mark his train. This did not happen.
It appears that his turn was skipped over entirely (51). After that, I could only play the 8-10, and the game ended with each of us with one tile, and I won a net 5 points. However, if my opponent's train was marked in the previous move as per the rules, I could have also played my final tile (5-3), and won 13 points.
Once again, I will cite the rule “If a player passes the move due to not being able to play, their train becomes marked” – which should apply in this case, but it is not how the game behaves. The turn is skipped instead of forcing a pass and marking the train.

I had to go to adjust graphics and revert to the "classic" graphics (instead of "modern") to ease the strain on the eyes, but it's a pity, the modern graphics are prettier. I'm sure that if someone could experiment a bit with the colours a better combination of foreground/background can be found.

I am unsure if this is a bug or if I have missed something.
On my opponent's Turn 48 they have drawn the 5 of clubs and used this to move a piece out of start swapping it with one of my pieces sending it back to the start.
On my 49th turn I appear to have also drawn the 5 of clubs but cannot use it to swap my piece out of start. I can use it to move another piece 5 places forward.
So, first off I appear to have drawn the same card that my opponent had. And secondly I am not able to use it.

(#5548041) Strange behaviour in Spades game #14075202
Posted by littleblue on 29 Oct 2023 at 12:06PMIf you look at line (or turn) 3 there is a Jack of Hearts played by me, but at Line 5 there is a Jack of hearts played by Marcmandy?
Also when you use the arrows to look at past moves (because I thought I was losing my mind as I couldn't work out the tricks in lines 3, 4, 5 and 6) shobee plays six of hearts but actually no cards are played by the rest of us after that until it comes back to shobee who plays the two of spades. (you have to use the playback to see this). The duplicate Jack of Hearts is played as part of this odd behaviour.
So to summarise:
- duplicate card has been played if you look at the the record of the game on the right side of the games board
- however if you use the playback buttons, it seems that three players did not get a turn at all and play skipped on. Shobee would not have known we had not played because there were turns showing in the game record.
At least one other player in the game has looked at this and I have cleared my cache to check its not a display issue.
Many thanks

Posted by quietman on 29 Oct 2023 at 11:57AMFunny, I've been here 23 years and it's the first time I remember being in this situation. I think my opponent looked at the board and the score and decided to pass. Naturally I passed, too assuming the game would end. We both then passed several times before I saw the pattern and brought my questions here
Thanks to all for taking a look. I agree with rabbitoid that it shouldn't matter if there are still tiles in the pool, but I also agree with dawn1968:
”It states in the rules that if both players pass and the pool is empty the game ends Since there are still tiles in the pool the game won't end”
I've advised my opponent and will try to continue playing the game, or she may decide to resign

Posted by rabbitoid on 29 Oct 2023 at 11:38AMWhatever. Passing is like saying "I can't find a valid word". The pass is accepted as a move. When the opponent passes too, his pass is also accepted. So what does the software do? it tells you "your opponent passed, therefore you must have a valid word". Not very logical
(#5548033) Re: Game Won't End
Posted by Rogue Trooper on 29 Oct 2023 at 10:58AMThere are 9 tiles in the pool to trade with. The only other way is to accept a draw or resign. Looking at that board I find it very hard to believe there are no words left to be made. Could be wrong though!

(#5547738) Mexican Train – Empty Boneyard Behavior
Posted by Nukkle Dragger on 28 Oct 2023 at 7:14AMOnce the boneyard runs out, if a player does not have a bone they can play, it seems that their turn gets skipped, rather than a pass. The effect here is subtle, but real.
In this situation, if a player has an unmarked train, but not the bone to play on it, that train effectively becomes unplayable – The other player who holds that bone cannot play it as the train is unmarked. This prevents their train from becoming marked for the remainder of the round. This leads to some inappropriate end-of-round behaviors.
I believe the correct behavior in this case is the player would pass their turn, and their train would become marked at this point. I have tried looking up rules online, and only found one that addresses this situation specifically, but others basically indicate that if a player cannot play (whether they can still draw or not) then their train should be marked at that point.
The rule listed on the GT site says “If a player passes the move due to not being able to play, their train becomes marked” – which should apply in this case, but it is not how the game behaves. The turn is skipped instead of forcing a pass and marking the train.
I have seen this happen a number times, but for an example, look at game #14051955, at the end of round 1, turns 52-53.
