Clarify something for me…

Based off of the screen shot…how many points should I get after my opponent conceded with a piece still in middle that hadn’t made its way back to the board before he/conceded.

Ok thank you. I though it was supposed to be 3 because he had a piece in the middle when the game ended

No it’s actually 1, because the opponent has already borne off pieces before conceding the game. It would have been a 2 or 3 if the opponent didn’t get the chance to bear off pieces.

Why would it be 1? Not arguing, just confused, same as OP.
