A platform for head-to-head backgammon engine matches, with verifiable dice, statistical results and downloadable match archives.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-02 issue.
For
Backgammon players and bot developers
Worth noticing
Match archives can be downloaded as .mat files, or as .sgf files for propositions; the homepage currently says no rooms are open.

Field notes

The room format uses fixed settings and is described as running thousands of matches, with dice committed before play so they can be checked afterward. The page lists downloadable .mat match files and .sgf files for propositions, but currently reports no open rooms; it does not establish from the extracted text whether archived matches are available to inspect.
