In Response To: Rules of backgammon (Phil Simborg)

Yes Phil, for play WITH box but WITHOUT clocks I see your point about where to put the dice when you end your turn.

I have played 100% of my bafflebox matches with clock as well, and in that scenario the cup doesn't really seem that necessary.

I'd like to see the demonstration you mention of controlling the dice through a bafflebox, or rather I'd like to see the bafflebox in question, it simply cannot be very ingeniously constructed?
