In Response To: Tourney resistance to computer improvements (Stanley E. Richards)

Pip counting is not a time consuming skill if you're good at it and realize that you rarely need to take a complete count.

However, everyone logging onto a secure online server with guaranteed 100% completely random dice, and playing timed BG on their laptops which obviously record the game, may be the future of this game if it is to grow.

Note that this solves the cocked problem and the game can be timed faster since there's no time needed to shake the dice.

However, that should be without a displayed pip count and without point numbers.
