In Response To: Where have all the Giants gone? (Bob Koca)

So I was hoping someone else might tackle this question but even those mild hopes were dashed. You still have myself (even though technically I'm not currently anything Giant wise due to lack of participation I count myself much like I count Nack), Nack from time to time, John O'Hagan is always around, and that's about it for technical Giants I believe. There did used to be a lot more solid name players that posted. We are missing the likes of used to be frequent Giant posters like Neil Kazaross and MCG. Even Mochy or Michy may have stopped by in the past.

Where did they go? A lot of them have moved on to their own thing and probably don't see the positive expected return of investing their time here, for free, especially when it's quite dead when I'm not here to postwhore. If it was the moving and shaking end all of online backgammon communication like it at least once pretended to be maybe they would come back. Sadly Facebook offers too much ease to reach those same people without all the mighty work of going to an external website and, god forbid, perhaps logging in. I was just recently gone for a few weeks in the south of France and low and behold before I could make it back the forums almost entirely dried up once again.

I have about twelve percent of a plan moving forward. I will post more about it in the near future.
