My guess is there is an answer ofr this somewhere, but I can't find it... How strong is the BG-community here compared to other sites? Compared to live? Since I only played it on the net, I have no idea. In eg chess, it's easy to compare the rating of a few known players net & live rating and get an idea of the level of play and how strong the site is. Are there anything like that in BG as well?!
Pason69: it is far weaker here than some sites such as http://www.dailygammon.com. at DG they talk A LOT about tactics and really analyse a lot of games as the site is totally dedicated to backgammon.. Brainking is more of a chat site and if you are after serious backgammon, this is not a good place. The boards here have basically no analytical information whatsoever
Pason69: You´ll find more familiary games to play here (which does not mean you´ll find weak players), since it´s difficult as a rook to choose your opponents upon their rating if you play a lot of tournaments like you and most do. Allmost 1000 players is not a enourmous community, so you´ll find less top-players. But compaired to life you´ll find more players at your level on net and here also. It´s difficult to compare the sites, the rating system are different. If you surch to play against experienced players probably FIBS is a good adress. I like the Galore sites for further questions about the game, it would not make sence to reinvent the wheel on every backgammon-site :)
Pason69: i play both on here as well as on dailygammon as well .. the players there often annihilate me :)
the good thing of this site though is that there are a lot of different games to play .. this is an allround game site while other sites concentrate on mainly 1 game type
