Regardless of which is the most popular game etc, Fencer has stated many times that this site was always intended to be prodominantly a "Chess" site.

I dont play Chess, or any of it's variants, in fact I only really play Backgammon - so I am one of the many who are eagerly waiting for new variants/improvements, but I don't complain and neither do many others.

Perhaps if we leave Fencer to get on with his improvements, we may see some to the BG games in time quicker.

Yes - I agree, perhaps an more regular/accurate update on current features in progress and which features Fencer is prioritising, but in the meantime, I think we should just bear with the site.

- by far.
