Re: Change to thew arena format.

I've played at a face to face backgammon club.....badly. I got destroyed regularly. And the standard is with the doubling cube to 7 points. And the games were fast. That's the biggest letdown on BGA. If the turns for Backgammon were quicker, these 3 point games would be over fast. I welcome the doub...

Re: LETTER SHUFFLE AND DICTIONARY

I agree with the dictionary. it's annoying and crippling to a strategic move.
I just had Lapst rejected, so had to use laps instead. It's a good game, but, that's the last game I'll be playing. The BGA dictionary is crippled

For a while, I thought, he's not there. I was about to give up until I saw your quote.
