The Road Less Travelled By....

Donīt constantly ask what can be done for the players: ITīS NOT A ONE-WAY STREET.
TDīs do their share to support the game. They invest time, work, equipment, deal out hotel rates, tournament venues, they travel, they provide staff, and, and, and...
Players should simply (at least sometimes) bitch less and think of how THEY can support the game, regardless if they agree with some parts of an organization or not (see Mochyīs post above which was short and spot on), instead of sitting and expecting to be served as they please. Fortunately, many DO appreciate the work and keep us going on with what we do.
Backgammon, in spite of being a smaller world compared to poker, is pretty fragmented. You canīt please everybody. Some want long matches, so want shorter ones. To some, it canīt be expensive enough, to some others, itīs always too expensive. Some want a hard-core non-stop playing experience, others want a loose schedule for socializing and sightseeing. Some expect more luxurious venues, others are fine with a dump close to the airport. So no matter what you do, you can only target a certain type of player + a few others.
