In Response To: race cube (John O'Hagan)

Thank you very much for your contribution!

This is the only reference I could find about Pipples.
However, I don't understand how it works and specifically I am stuck understanding how to construct the "convex polygon" and calculate its surface. A diagram explaining how it works is very much appreciated! The article linked above has imho obvious linguistic short-comings and some editing would help. For instance, the author uses the term "stripped point" instead of "vacant point", while elaborating on the "Zero Criterion".
I will be grateful for any other references or general help w.r.t. pipples.

As far as I know the Trice redoubling point for these kind of positions is within 1 pip of the point of last take. It is 2 for the 62 rule!
