In Response To: the solution of backgammon (Chuck Bower)

If you look regularly at the problem of the week, i think Robertie set the point to snowie 4 and later versions. He also don't trust by now XG: "Looks like Snowie and Extreme Gammon play this sort of position very differently. Snowie's backgame preferences tend to concur with my own experiences, so I'll usually rely on Snowie in this sort of situation. You may feel differently, which is OK." I am working regularly with the problems of the week on 2+2, and especially at difficult backgame decisions, XG has sometimes a dissenting vote. So the comments in this cases for me are like rationalizing discrete numbers. Backgammon isn't solved. Look at #87. Interesting, a position, proto-backgame, Nack vs. Bill in Reno, prebot times.
