In Response To: Clock Irregularities Should Not Be Classed as Illegal Moves (Taper_Mike)

I disagree that using legal moves in the Chicago ruling was absurd. It was ambiguous and probably the interpretation of most US players. I agree the rules of backgammon, under legal-moves-only and otherwise, need a new category to handle clock irregularities.
