Hey all, i played about 10 games this morning. Its an awesome game. I played when i lived in china for a few months. One modification from the rules we used to play with, i dont know if this was overlooked or intentionally left out. You cant play out and into the same mill. Thegame becomes quite fustrating when someone used the same mill 15 times in a row! -Shi
Over site of rules? Or intentional?

I agree this has happened to me Several times and it's annoying cuz they sit there move up then down then up again and whamo 3 in a row.. continously.. decreases then fun in games
you cant use a mill 15 times in a row X-( :p lol u can only take 7 of their pieces b4 u lose :p o well iont playdat cuz its confusin..i played and won first guy 2-1 and secong guy 0-2 :(
>>> I agree it does seem a bit unfair to be able to move in and out. But it does move the game along faster. Also it is a good strategy move. Today I bear a better player than me using that move. It just adds a another element to the game either to set that up or to be able to block it. [img=

Yes but it is quite easy to give yourself a set up and use the same begining pieces and moves to never be defeated. Hence the reason for the rule. -Shi
The "official" rules do not contain any rule like this:

Quite the contrary, they allow such moves. Thanks, OP
I just think its unfair because once i was just about to make a mill and you know..... start winning the game it made a draw and i had more points than the other person and i lost points. I think that this is the only problem with the rules of this game. The person i was going to win with nearly ran out of time. I think they should leave it on who runs out of time first if nothing is happening.....who knows? Anyone could be winning the game!
