In the third position, however, there should have been four plays in the Nactation table: In the third-move position 64R-31P-32 below, the expanded definiton of D (Down), together with the Most-Points Convention of Hit/Most/Six, works to guarantee that the best backgammon play is awarded the capital letter.
