Thanks for updating your experiences. Do your (human) opponents now get impatient with you? If so, how have you dealt with that?


I played 10 slowgammon matches versus 7 different opponents.

Two of them complained about playing speed, but I think one of them (if not both) was just nervous because of his bad luck. I didn't respond to that, just kept playing.

As I have clock in front of me, I saw that in some matches even with my "obligatory pause" I played faster (used less reserve time) than my opponents.
In other matches, I used slightly more reserve time, but still less than a minute difference (in 9pt matches).

I don't think that now I'm playing slow. Just slower than before.
