Petter, you must be feeling very lazy today ;-

See my answer to Jason with regard to avoiding disputes, and ABT Rule 4.3 MOVING. A player shall move the checkers in an unambiguous manner, using only one hand.

Unambiguous: clear, having no uncertainty or ambiguity, in a manner which leaves no doubt. Rule 4.3 sets a high standard. In my experience, a player who "makes a habit" (as I said) of moving my checkers without moving his is among those that we're going to have a disagreement with, eventually.
