Default Re: Backgammon w rating

Java must be correctly installed of course. That is probably why it didnt work.

"Can u estimate how high rating u would need to play for money online (because this would force me to think more)?"

Picking the rigth opponents is obviously an important skill.
Moneysites isnt rated or is grossly manipulated so its difficult to answer this question properly. Although there are a few beginners and intermediates on these sites, I think you need about fibs 1900 to be a consistent winner there (winner including the rake).

Gnus rating is roughly the same as fibs rating. Gnu also plays on fibs on its strongest settings as parlorbot and mgnu_wclass and is a popular sparring partner to many players. It is usually rated 1950-2100 there
