While we're on the subject of extremely slow players.Does anyone have any tips on avoiding tournaments that those players are in? ( a certain male player from a certain state in America for instance)

Carl: Play tournaments that use the Fischer's Clock. That way, you know the game will be done by a certain time (for the most part).

Marfitalu: Yes.

Or add an option to allow create tournaments where we can choose the number maximum of games that a player must have to can play that tournament. Example: Backgammon tournament only acessible for players with less 1000 games.

If we can create a tournament for players with bkr between 1000 and 1600 points, for example, why not add this new option?

Marfitalu: "...I think that a formula to evaluate the players about the way they make their moves could be more accurate." There was a discussion about this here.

AlliumCepa: Maybe it is better to show a graph of a players move history (# of moves/day) and the number of running games over time. These two graphs are a good estimate how fast a player plays.

Subject: Re:

joshi tm: "...show a graph of a players move history" --> That's right. It was discussed too, but nothing happened.

coan.net: the "speed rating" limit --> great idea, I like it. Another way to sift out those obtrusive players.

any speed indication would have to be per game type as people play certain games faster than other games (i sure do :))
