Hrqls: Would you be so kind as to narrow the gap between the columns so that I don't have to scroll so much horizontally to view your post, nor deal with the extra width until your post has cleared the front page? Just a few spaces per column should shrink it down to fitting on the page. Thank you. It's very nice how you are able to line up the columns. How are you able to do that? It'd come in handy for some of my posts and messages on this site, but everytime I type them lined up they don't appear that way after I post or send them.
Walter Montego: ok changed it .. i copied it from excel (in which i made the list) to notepad (to remove the borders) and then into the brainking box .. this copying added tabs between the columns .. i now replaced the tabs by spaces (2 or 3) by hand
to make the columns come out ok you will have to used a fixed width font (most of the times courier is used for that) .. that way the letters and numbers and spaces all have the same width .. otherwise the 'i' and 'm' and ' ' all have different widths .. to achieve this you can place the text between 'pre' tags .. just like 'i' tags make a text italic will the 'pre' tags make the font of fixed width
Hrqls: I'm not sure what to make of your advice for making neat columns. I'll re-read it and try to put it into use soon. If I have trouble, I'll post some questions on the Computer discussion board.
Thank you very much for narrowing the columns. It all fits into the window now and I don't have to scroll sideways at all. Makes it a lot easier to compare the various numbers and people. Plus the other posts on the page are back to more managable widths too. For some reason, one wide post box and they do it to on my screen.
Marfitalu: Mainly because anti is silly. I think many more would play the others. I don't play race much but could be persuaded if the moves were quick.
LionsLair: *nod* i almost had you added to it until i noticed that it was still provisional .. while the other variants werent .. funny that the variants are established but backgammon not :) .. i didnt expect that so you were on the list for a short time :)
Hrqls: main reason for that was because of the lack of a doubling cube back then, and the 'luck factor' in a single game, as I'm not the one the luck is always with! :o)
Marfitalu: true .. and some players have their rank timed out (too long no finished game, red date behind ranking)
when i have some more time i will make a new list without anti, and maybe just the top 10% (or maybe a bit % more in case i am not in the 10% of all ;))
here is the top 10% in all positive backgammon variants (5 types) the rating in nackgammon seems to be the biggest problem as quite some top players are in the top 10% of the other 4 variants, but not in the top 28 of nackgammon :)
