Either way, lets some evidence. Post a few of these positions and lets see what the right cube action really is.
Finally I got one of these postitions where there's no question (they don't occur very often). I wish I knew how to post a position but here's the summary. It's a pure race, everything is passed except we each have 2 men on the mid point. I have:
1pt --1
2pt --2
3pt --3
4pt --3
5pt --2
6pt --2
13pt --2
Total of 71 pips and a really nice setup
He has:
2pt --2
3pt --2
5pt --3
6pt --6
13pt --2
Total of 87 pips. He offers me a double!! I, of course, accept.
He then rolls a 6-6 and takes the lead. This removes all doubt in my mind. Motif knows what it rolls before it offers the double.
ETA: I wrote this all up and Motif then rolled another 6-6, then 5-5, then another 5-5. My new theory is motif cheats worse when you make an internet post proving that it cheats.
