Opinions Please

Backgammon tourneys have slowed down. Players opinions welcome. One reason is the low tix and low pts tournaments.

Some have told me they would like 5 pts and 7pt (cr) matches. Well 5 pts is fine if we can find them to get them back but 7 is long and could take hours with good turnouts. The standard 3pts(cr) used to get many participants and once stopped the players left. Can we reach them again? Your ideas are welcome. Ty



I agree

Three points seem like the ideal length to me.



Read the forum...pass the word.

Feedback would be great but most players,especially the new ones don't know about the forum. Pass the word and give your input. Thx

I agree 3 pt, or maybe once in awile 5 pt for 10 tix or so. I really don't understand the lack of interest in BG tournaments especially when you see people spending so much on individual games.

We need to figure out a way to motivate more of the players who sit in the room all day wanting 50 tix games to come join us. Once a week would be a great time for 10-15 tix 5pt matches!



OK ....

Some requests have been made for more tourneys and some asked for 10 TIX plus as well. I will try some Sunday night 8pm tourneys to see how many are interested. GL to all and keep giving us feedback. TY

Give your opinion on these two formats. "Sunday night special" will have a 10 tix entry with all rounds 3 pts(cr) with a 5pts(cr) final or a 5 pts all rounds for 12-15 tix. Check out the schedule and see which week is which but both are sunday evenings at 8pm. Let us know and hope you enjoy your games.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!. According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!).   The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
