[pbmserv] Orbit scoring rules?




In "Orbit," the in-game score shown with the board shows the number of blank squares inside orbits /and/ half-orbits. But the winner is the one with the most blanks inside /only/ complete orbits, correct? If so, can someone fix the scoring system? If not, can someone clarify the rules? (Also, I didn't realize at first that

  .......
  .......
  .......
  ...x...
  .xx.x..
  x....x.
  ....x..

didn't count as a half-orbit --- it doesn't touch
the same side of the board, but two different sides.
This might want clarification in the rules, too.)
