IF Jacoby rule enabled
GnuBg offers to resign bg.
IF Accept
score 3 points! (I have 8 in following game.)
Game record reads Resigns - Perhaps should show number of points?
ELSE
play a roll each
GnuBg offers to resign g
IF Accept
score 2 points!
ELSE
play a roll each
score 1 point
ELSE (Jacoby rule disabled)
GnuBg rolls to save the bg.
Possible solutions:
GnuBg should only offer to resign single
The scoring should check that Jacoby is disabled before allowing > 1 point to
be scored.
It would be confusing (and ethically suspect) to offer a bg and then only mark
up one point, so the first solution is correct. Adding the second check would
be belt & braces.
