Subject: top 100 in all 6 types

Modified by Hrqls (14. December 2005, 21:51:36)

here is a list of players who are in the top 100 of all 6 gammon types on this site
(most players not on this list miss an established rating in antibackgammon or are outside the top 100 of backgammon or hypergammon (as those types have the most ranked players i guess)

i will see if i can make a similar list without antibackgammon sometime next week :)

anyway .. here it is .. the column order is: backgammon,nackgammon,antibackgammon,race backgammon,crowded backgammon,hyper backgammon,average

Hrqls: I remember this list...it is one of the main reasons I started playing regular b'gammon, as I wanted to be ranked with the likes of the top players as well, but never played in all 6 variants to even get recognized as one of them...

LionsLair: *nod* i even started to make a little program which would create those lists automagically .. but it got a bit stalled :)

the variants are definetly different
mostly they concentrate more on a specific aspect of ordinary bg

crowded and race more about building, race from the start, crowded from a specific point .. hyper is more about aggressive play and counting the chances to succeed or be hit .. nack is a bit more about the backgame than ordinary bg

but then again i am not a pro .. i only play this game for about 2 years .. and almost only on this site :)
