White is Player 2

score: 0
pip: 167

pip: 167

Blue is Player 1
XGID=-b----E-C---eE---c-e----B-:0:0:1:00:0:0:3:0:10

From the opening position, play two rolls for Blue to achieve a five point prime with a sixth consecutive point slotted. Either or both rolls may be a doublet or non-doublet. Also, you may move any part of any roll either forwards or backwards. (White does not make a move.)

Extra credit: Play the smaller number first.

As in regular backgammon, you are not permitted to land (temporarily or otherwise) on a point owned by the opponent. For example, you cannot play a 5 as 6/1 or 24/19, a 4 as 13/17 or 8/12, or an ace as 13/12.

Good luck!
