In Response To: 1st International Backgammon Championship (Mochy)

Sounds interesting. I would reconsider the following:

"Tournaments used to decide on qualifiers in each country must be, or have been with a minimum of 16 players. Matches should be a least 11 points long or two out of three 5 point matches or longer. "

Compare an elimination tournament with 11 point matches to s Swiss tournament with 9 point matches in which say three losses are neeeded to be eliminated. Which winner is likely the better player?
