The 1:1 ending This Nugget has been written by Tezcatlipoca on 29 Jan at 9:33AM Category: Mancala I thought it was impossible for any seeds to be gathered once it was down to two seeds... I was wrong again. A somewhat unlikely scenario should actually be possible within the rules. An opponent might gather seeds (and bring the score to 23:23) in such a way that the only seeds remaining on the board were in your Pot 6 and their Pot 1. You would then be forced to distribute Pot 6 which would gather two seeds, bringing the score to 25:23 in your favour. Although your move is forced, it is still worth knowing this. Okay, I am absolutely confident that no further captures can occur when there is only one seed left on the board! Nugget Votes This Nugget has received 1 upvote and no downvotes.
