In Response To: Should I switch from GNUbg to XG? What about BGblitz? (Marty Storer)

The more of a backgammon geek you are, the more you should have all of the bots mentioned.

These seems true in the abstract and I do have all the bots, BGB, JF, SW, GNU, and XG but now that XG2 (beta) is out I can not come up with a single reason to use any of the other bots. I used to use GNU for the epc but now XG has that also. There may be other features I don't personally use that others may find useful in another bot I'm unaware of but for this bg supergeek XG is all I touch anymore. I would only recommend having the one bot (XG) to anyone coming new into the bot scene.
