Checkers rules

Do you play where you have to jump the other player if they want you to?
We always played this way growing up and I just played my wife for the first time and she says no way and that it makes no sense.
Clearly she's dumb right, the game would be pointless if you never had to jump.

If a jump is available, it must be taken.

Yea!
Rally’s is good too but I’m pretty sure they’re the same thing

You have to jump if it is available.. It’s just part of the strategy of the game and how you can force your opponents next move

If you had to jump then you would lose out on the fun of playing kids and refusing to move your back pieces.

We played without a mandatory jump rule. Not my fault I kept my back row and you're getting shite on.

Whether it’s checkers or draughts all available jumps are mandatory per official rules.

American Checkers Federation rules:
1.19 If a jump creates an immediate further capturing opportunity, then the capturing move of the piece (man or king) is continued until all the jumps are completed. The only exception is that if a man reaches the king-row by means of a capturing move it then becomes a king but may not make any further jumps until their opponent has moved. At the end of the capturing sequence, all captured pieces are removed from the board.
1.20 All capturing moves are compulsory, whether offered actively or passively. If there are two or more ways to jump, a player may select any one that they wish, not necessarily that which gains the most pieces. Once started, a multiple jump must be carried through to completion. A man can only be jumped once during a multiple jumping sequence.

Face it your wife just doesn't want you to jump her.

That is a stupid rule. You could set it up to where they jump you and then you double jump them. A good player would see this and wouldn't make the jump. Forcing them to do so is stupid.
Your wife needs to leave before yall reproduce.

Other way around. She doesn't want to jump him.
OP, what's your address? I might be able to help. Send pictures of the checker board, the configuration, and the wife.
