Positions Browser
Search every analyzed position you've ever played — by error, position type, event, phase, roll, opponent and more — using built-in presets or your own saved presets.
The Positions browser is where the automatic tagging pays off. It pools every analyzed position across your library into one searchable wall of board cards, so you can ask questions that span all your matches at once: "all my blunders in a back-game", "every missed close-out", "cube takes I got wrong against this opponent". Each is a single query.
By default the positions browser is scoped to your matches (your profile) when you are on-roll: That is, you will look at all your decisions. But this can be changed with the decision scope filter on every report.
Presets
The sidebar holds a tree of ready-made queries under Presets, grouped by what they pull out :
- Mistakes (and separate checker / cube mistake groups) — by severity, from doubtful & worse up to howlers, plus good but not best.
- Opening rolls — opening and response rolls, and early-game errors.
- Checker events — missed hits, bad hits, missed point-on-blots, missed back splits, and more.
- By position type — back-game errors, holding-game cube errors, blitzing errors…
- By game phase — middle-game, endgame-contact, race, and bear-off errors.
- Resignations — resigned games and resignation errors.
Click a preset to load it; tweak the filters (below) afterwards if you want. Folder open/closed state is remembered.
Filters
Below the preset is the chip bar — the filter axes you build a query from. They combine with AND: a position must satisfy every active chip. Within most single chips the values are OR'd (e.g. phase = opening or race); a few are AND'd, noted below.
The axes cover, among others:
- Position state — each player's type (with an optional modifier), filtered for the active or the facing side separately.
- Phase — the game phase.
- Events — what happened on the turn, each with its type (did, missed, wrong, avoided, possible). Events are AND'd within the chip.
- Errors — severity (the error bands), cube-error kind, resign-error kind.
- Decision — checker / double / take-or-pass / resign, plus game-end result.
- The race — pips ahead/behind, checkers borne off.
- Rolls — the dice rolled, action/roll number, distance from game end.
- The match — opponent, date, match length, score state (Crawford, n-away…), format.
- Annotations — starred, has a note, or carries specific custom tags (AND'd — a row must have every named tag).
Decision scope
A scope control sits above the chips and frames every query around your profile. It reads "{your profile} is …", with four options:
| "{profile} is…" | You're looking at |
|---|---|
| on-roll (default) | Decisions you made. |
| off-roll | Decisions your opponent made — what you were up against. |
| at the table | Either side, in matches you played. |
| all | Every position in the library, regardless of whether you were at the table or not. |
With no profile set, the control locks to not relevant.
Your presets
Built a filter combination you'll want again? Save preset (or Save as new) and name it — it appears in the sidebar under Your presets, alongside the built-in presets, where you can rename or delete it. Your presets are stored with your library and travel in a backup.
Viewing the results
Results render as a grid of board cards or a dense list. For the grid you can set the card size and the board display mode (Initial / Arrows / Final), and sort the set. Large result sets are capped (1,000 cards) for responsiveness — narrow your filters to see everything.
Each card shows the board, the match context, the position's tags, and its error size, with star/note markers. Click a card to open that exact position in review.
Walk through a result set
The result footer has a "Walk through these →" button that opens the matched positions one at a time in a focused, review-like screen — board, candidates, and the star / note / tag / share tools — so you can study a whole query as a sequence. It's the natural way to drill a set of mistakes.
Positions you star or annotate along the way collect on the Saved page.
