We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
Last full accuracy audit: 2026-09-08 · 12 entries checked · 7 flagged · 16 issues confirmed · 7 corrected · 9 still open
Backgammon match strategy — The entry states the doubling cube starts centered at 64, but in standard backgammon match play, the cube starts centered at 1.
Backgammon match strategy — The entry says 'Gammon go' is the term for a trailing player at 1-away, 2-away Crawford, but the standard term is 'gammon save'.
Calcutta auction — The claim that a Calcutta golf tournament is a major plot point in the 1967 film *Banning* is factually incorrect; the film does not feature a Calcutta auction as a central plot element.
Calcutta auction — The claim that the technique was first recorded by British colonial authorities in Calcutta is vague and unsupported by definitive historical canon.
Emotional Backgammon — The entry states the film was released in 2003, but the LORE and DID YOU KNOW sections say it was shot in July 1999, which is inconsistent with the release year if the film was actually released in 2003.
Emotional Backgammon — The LORE section introduces a character named 'Jane' as Mary's best friend, but the INTRO says 'John and Jane share a bitter, complicated history,' which contradicts the established canon that Jane is Mary's best friend and not a love interest of John's.
Hypergammon — The claim that Hypergammon was included in the Mind Sports Olympiad in-person event in London 2023 is unverified and likely false.
Hypergammon — The claim that Marc Olsen is known as a grandmaster Hypergammon player is invented; no widely recognized grandmaster title exists for Hypergammon, and Marc Olsen is not a known figure in backgammon canon.
Backgammon opening theory — The claim 'By the third roll in backgammon, there are about 25,000 different possible positions' is factually incorrect; the commonly cited figure of about 25,000 positions refers to after the first two rolls, not the third.
Backgammon opening theory — The claim 'Joe Dwek published the first list of opening replies in 1976' is inaccurate; the first comprehensive list of opening replies is generally attributed to Paul Magriel's 1976 book 'Backgammon', not Dwek's work.
Sugoroku — The claim that ban-sugoroku was made illegal in Japan in 689 and 754 is not supported by established historical records; the earliest known ban on gambling-related board games in Japan is from the Nara period (8th century), but specific years 689 and 754 are n
Sugoroku — The claim that the Tsukiji Sugoroku Museum in Tokyo has a collection of 500 types of sugoroku from the Edo period to the 1950s is unverified; there is no widely known museum by that name with that specific collection in established backgammon or sugoroku histo
TD-Gammon — The entry incorrectly implies a 100-game match, but it was a 100-point match (first to 100 points).
TD-Gammon — The claim that backgammon wins were not represented is misleading; they were implicitly represented as the complement of the other four probabilities.
