In game 1531202 I tried to play 17.qoqpqqqrqspr, but it is not possible.
Also the move 17.qoqpqqqrpror is not accepted.

When I look at game 1531202 I see no inventory of orange pieces above the board at all. Strange. Blue has a normal inventory of pieces below the board.

And I see only my own (orange) pieces below the board. But this is not necessarily a bug, display of the not placed pieces is redundant. Maybe it is deliberate to save space.

The bug is still not fixed.
I want to play: gid=1531202&move=krjr
but it does not work, though I haven't placed the duomino yet. But it is also not displayed among my unplaced pieces.

If all else fails, read the manual.
The rules for hexa polyomino state that there is only on swag of pieces and that it is common to both players. Once a player has played a shape, it is no longer available for either player. It makes sense, since there are an awful lot of hexominos.

Now I got it. The rules say: "Game is played only with one set of tiles". I thought when reading this first, every player has one set, contrary to the "small" variant, where the players have two sets of mono- to tetrominoes each, but seemingly it means that both players take the tiles from the same pool.

No bug. Sorry Richard.

There is a bug somewhere. The rules say "Hexa. Game on board 20x20." but the actual game is 19x19.
