In Response To: XG PR Categories revisited (Michael Depreli)

If you're talking about "true masters" of the game, I don't think that 2.0 PR from the standard starting position is stringent enough. I'd want 2.0 PR from any reasonable starting position, including variants such as Nackgammon, Snake, various props, etc. Cubeless as well as cubeful match play should be included. Moreover, PR doesn't completely capture the ability to adapt against weaker opponents.

By my definition, even the bots aren't true masters yet.
