How about alternating the first roll , after tehfirst game to reduc ethe luck factor. Naturally, no doubles can be played!
You are working under the idea that most people who play backgammon want to reduce the element of luck involved. I don't think this is true. While I personally would love backgammon to reward the better player more often than it does getting people on board with that is a pipe dream.
Let s be adults, no delay: if your time runs out you loose the match plain & simple
This is why clocks failed the first time around in backgammon. Games/matches become more about clock management than about backgammon. No delay, no way.
