Hi!
I haven't been flooding this forum with updates recently but there has been an endless flow of improvements since I launched Heroes. Pretty cool that someone noticed! 😀
That means a lot to me! Thanks a lot!
Congratulations to the other award winners!
Not so long ago Heroes also held what could possibly be the biggest online backgammon tournament to date: https://ukbgf.com/2020-uk-open-the-biggest-online-backgammon-tournament-ever/
I guess I could list all the improvements made to the server but that would take forever but the last one I think has some potential. Support for online leagues:
Over 6500 (internal) tournaments has been held on the server. Not too bad!
And a fair amount of external tournaments has been held on the server too but I don't have any exact number of those. Some of them come as a surprise when a huge amount of players from one country show up and starts to play against each other.
Some very cool tournaments are being run by WBIF https://www.wbif.net/
This one is generating a lot of cool matchups: https://www.ebif.at/index.php?nav_id=39&age=running
With a huge amount of features Heroes may take a bit longer to get used to but you can learn about more features as you go along. To jumpstart your knowledge about the server you can take a look at these:
Earlier David Sanders made an heroic effort of creating a User Guide for Heroes: User guide
The other day I took some time to write about the board info section which is perhaps a bit of a swiss army knife all on its own with a lot of functionality: Info section
Be a Hero! Play today! 😀
