In Response To: Dice on a Checker (Bill Riles)

My 2 pence:

I think the US during the last 1 or 2 decades was flooded with dimpled checkers of inferior quality (and cheaper too). Dimpled checkers simply attract dice on themselves. Now the USBGF finds a way out by declaring the attracted dice valid! So we say all checkers are equal. But they are not! Instead of reequipping inferior boards with quality checkers we promote the dimpled checkers. The way of better playing experience is by introducing digital dice and not by favoring inferior equipment. see www.svilo.com/index.html#ssccd of 1998.
