<p>Question for marble movement.  </p>

<p>Your partner has a marble in their in-spot (start of home). If you hit that marble with yours, what happens to your partners marble? And yours?  </p>

<p>We have been playing with this sequence of events:  </p>

<ul>
<li>The rule is that when you hit your partners marble it is sent to its in-spot. </li>
<li>That position is now occupied by your marble so now your partners marble hits yours and sends you to your in-spot. </li>
<li>The end result would be both of you are in your in-spots.  </li>
</ul>

<p>Any thoughts on this play?</p>

Question for marble movement.

Your partner has a marble in their in-spot (start of home). If you hit that marble with yours, what happens to your partners marble? And yours?

We have been playing with this sequence of events:

* The rule is that when you hit your partners marble it is sent to its in-spot.
* That position is now occupied by your marble so now your partners marble hits yours and sends you to your in-spot.
* The end result would be both of you are in your in-spots.

Any thoughts on this play?

Yes, that is actually (*and strangely*) correct.
