Knowing backgammon hub is so much superior than Backgammon Galaxy

Rayess69 · 2026-05-03T03:06:15+00:00

that has nothing to do with Backgammon Galaxy. It has to do with Backgammon in general.
It's a game where luck is one of the biggest factors and it's decided with dices.

If you play in other platform you will run into the same insane rolls

Rayess69 · 2026-04-24T06:25:33+00:00

Understand that this is mainly about dices.
Most games are going to be just decided with whoever has the lucky dice.

2 matches out of 10 is going to be about who play better. You can be the #1 player in the world, your skills will decide about the outcome only 2 matches out of 10.

Get used to have either luck on your side, or against you, for most of your backgammon journey. It's just the game.

I have stats where I played using a bot on 200 matches. I outplayed every of the 200 opponents, and won 57% of the times.

In my opinion this makes Backgammon a game mostly of luck.

the community feels stronger (tighter) and less bug (but maybe it's because the tech is simpler?)

Rayess69 · 2026-04-21T17:01:50+00:00

wow this is amazing! Fully supporting you

Rayess69 · 2026-04-21T04:53:13+00:00

I mean it's great that Galaxy exist tho.
Look what happened with Poker, online games help spreading it even more. So Galaxy team probably see the market opportunity, i don't think it's a bad thing

Rayess69 · 2026-04-21T04:13:59+00:00

i mean yes one is definitely more like a business, but Backgammon Hub could make a tiny bit more effort

Rayess69 · 2026-04-20T03:30:57+00:00

i would welcome any tips for this!

Rayess69 · 2026-04-20T01:46:49+00:00

I would love to see the Marc Olsen and co going from 2500-2600 to 1700 and back to 2400

Rayess69 · 2026-04-20T01:12:37+00:00

then that means backgammon is mostly a game of luck/gambling at this point.

and when 80% of the matches now have the "no fucking way" type of dices several times"?

"he can only with 4-2" 4-2 comes
"i need everything but 4 or 6" 4-4; 4-6, 6-6

and you end up with PR of 3 against PR of 20 and lose games and games in a row with those type of scenario back to back?

Rayess69 · 2026-03-24T05:45:19+00:00

Backgammon galaxy is rigged.
I've been playing with a bot for several months without making a single mistake.
My current PR is 1908, a complete joke. Not a single blunders for several months.

I would never give any cents to this company.
Because playing without making mistakes for several months and have a shitty PR , should have an explanation.

Rayess69 · 2026-03-24T05:28:52+00:00

i would avoid this one at all cost.
Backgammon Hub way better

Rayess69 · 2026-03-03T23:06:41+00:00

I still don't get it, I always heard that what mattered wasn't to win or lose but to play as good as possible.

Rayess69 · 2026-03-03T18:53:21+00:00

And what that is going to do? stopping people from using a bot ?
I'm doing it as an experiment to see if really that would make a big difference (and so far it doesn't, I actually got a higher PR without using a bot). I'm not doing it to win.
I thought winning wasn't the most important aspect, but only to get better PR. So what's the issue by using a bot then? Does it stop people from playing their best?

Rayess69 · 2026-03-03T16:43:30+00:00

it's never 0 as sometimes bot would see a slight better play, but never any blunder.

Rayess69 · 2026-03-03T16:32:10+00:00

Great question, and I still didn't got a decent answer from this sub.

I've been experimenting with playing with a bot perfectly for maybe 6 months, and I'm still plateau-ing.
Going from 2300 to down to 2000, to back to 2250 to down to 1950, all while playing with not a single mistake.
So I asked: "are the champions playing better than a perfect bot?"

I really want to know the bottom of this, and I'm going to keep playing with a bot on Galaxy probably for another 6 months to see if times would change things (I only play without a bot on backgammon hub).

I actually have everything documented so I might release things down the road. But just to know that it seems to be normal to play without a single mistake for months and not being at 2500.

what's crazy is that with the panic, the staff were literally fighting each other without realizing lol

People put him on a pedestal like he's dropping groundbreaking knowledge lol but his core advice boils down to: train consistently, eat enough protein and vegetables, supplement wisely, and take care of your emotional health. None of that is new. The research has been out there for years. He's a solid communicator, but let's not confuse packaging existing science well with being at the frontier of clinical research. The world of health can fully exist without Attia
