Playing BW is about being better than your fellow man.

Since the skill levels differentiate so much in bw, there is so much to work on. People like it because:

a) Its very very competitive

b) It takes brains and creativity to be the best. People like to prove they are smarter/more creative.

c) It's a fun, fun game.

It's fun because its an easy-to-use interface that allows you to feel superior to other people.

Simple as that.
