(1) Which website(s) has the best modern (doubling cube), competitive (ELO or some other ranking system), and free (non-gambling option), backgammon games? Tell me there's something better than Yahoo Games.

(2) Does anyone want to play?

Rofl competitive backgammon? It's all luck, there's no point in playing it competitively.

It's not completely luck... and there is some skill involved... but you're right that it involves much more luck than most competitive games, which is why I doubt there's a huge scene

Now, if I could find a solid GO site, that'd be sweet. GO is BA.
