rod03801: I have no issue about if another mod would have edited it or not. I am just stating that I think it was a silly moderation IMHO. Each person has their own opinion right. Obviously yours differs from mine. Thats ok, you are a different person than I am.
playBunny: well, considering my probably 6-0 lead in a 9 point match I think I have a 50-50 chance given your skill level compared to mine is similar to comparing a Boeing 747 compared to whale .
My comment was completely due to the "wick" at the end of your link. That was a little uncalled for don't you think? Especially considering you "knew" it wasn't bogus !!!
playBunny: that link doesnt work for me being a pawn I dont have access to my graphs and you still own all my won membership.
I find it interesting you would post such a post to make people think I did some weird stuff to climb. I think you know me better than that or is it out of spite coz we havent spoken on the phone for a number of weeks LOL
Speaking of which, we should do another phone hookup soon. Lemme know when a good time is.
Og an FWIW, my rating is still far below what it should be
"GERRY": Oh no, it isn't bad luck at all. Obviously you have been singled out and Fencer has written a specialized script that activates in any games you play, looks to see what dice will best suit your opponent and would least suit you, and the script automatically plays those selections.
Well, that was kind of a joke just to illustrate how ridiculous it is to suggest the dice are anything other than random
playBunny: I agree with playBunny that the average can be misleading. The following is an example of how my play could give a misleading version of my rate of play
I have a tendency to play "next game with friend" and when I am online with the likes of Pedro Martinez for instance or AlliumCepa who are both on my friends list, it is common for me to play 100 or so moves against either player in quick succession to the detriment of non friends still waiting for me to make moves in my game.
grenv: how would a player feel if they were fast movers but a tourney they were about to win got cancelled because of a time limit. I feel they might be very displeased about such an event and it is not fair on them.
nabla: actually I had nowhere to stay in Calgary so I planned to creep out of town and park é sleep in a truck stop but I missed every one of them so just kept going.
AlliumCepa: its not a long journey for those who love driving. I drove right through from Winnipeg to VCancouver a few months ago, only stopping in Calgary for a few hours to get drunk !!!!!!!!!
Hi all, I am looking to start a backgammon club for any users here that live in Winnipeg Currently the only players I know in Winnipeg are Myself paully and pops635
If anyone else is living in Winnipeg and would like to start a club with me, let me know by PM
Also if you do not live in Winnipeg but are close enough to travel, feel free to also respond
wetware: thanks so much for all your help with that Gerard. It was much appreciated and always good to see someone going out of their way to help others
kocmoc should have all wins stripped from him. he is possibly a multi nick with WildBoy or even if not, there is considerable cheating to attain the rating in Hyper Backgammon that he has kocmoc's profile even shows he is wild boy as his profile reads as such "kocmoc (wild boy)"
Here are some examples of cheating
1. He has played 18 games against WildBoy and won every one of them. This is virtually impossible.
2. Here is an example of an intentional bad move to allow his kocmoc ID to win the game Hyper Backgammon (kocmoc vs. WildBoy) With black clearly losing, black chooses not to hit with the 18 to 14 move a no brainer
3. Here is another example of an intentional bad move to allow his kocmoc ID to win the game Hyper Backgammon (WildBoy vs. kocmoc) The dice 5-4 should have been used to go from the 2 point to the 11 point sending black to the bar. Instead, WildBoy opts to set his own pieces up for black to take them
This is blatant obvious multi nick cheating that should lead to kocmoc getting all his ratings stripped from him and any multi nicks banned from the site.
This message has also been sent in a pm to Fencer for his use.
Marian_colonelu has a number of times offered a draw in matches where I am about to win. I know this is not exactly cheating, but some players clicking quickly may not notice and then accept Please beware of this type of behaviour
