This is a position that no human professional would ever have reached.

My initial impression upon seeing the board was that White was the computer player, because as you say, what human would stack all those White checkers like that? But apparently Blue was the computer player?

Anyway, it's sort of pointless to argue with idiots who complain that the computer cheats. You'll never convince them. Giving them proof that they're wrong (in this case, about what human experts would play) will just infuriate them and not change their minds.

Does NJ Backgammon have a manual dice option? That's what I think is the real solution. Or if you want a more interesting challenge, create an "easy" level in which the bot cheats to favor the player.
