In Response To: Basic squads explained with proper diagrams (Matt Ryder)

You are a prolific source of information! I appreciate the senary links.

Don Thompson (an American backgammon player living in Japan) counts with Naccel, and he also applies senary to other areas of backgammon (and perhaps life, for all I know). Maybe he can be brought into the discussion.

Apparently, the Ndom language of Papua New Guinea has a senary numbering system. I wonder if Papua New Guineans are therefore natural backgammon players? :-)

Natural counters, certainly. As I understand it, they speak the tongue of the Naccel kingdom, which some time ago was abbreviated to "Ndom."
