First Internet Backgammon Server (FIBS) => Droppers => Topic started by: adrian on September 29, 2006, 07:07:03 PM

Poll
Question: Smartphone users on F.I.B.S. are welcome ? (A poll about Odesys client software - the second heaven for droppers).
Option 1: They are welcome for now, Odesys is supporting F.I.B.S. votes: 0
Option 2: The Software is buggy, I cannot see the "instant win" button in any menu and that drives me crazy. This is why I keep using the Odesys server. votes: 0
Option 3: I cannot read the display while I`m driving my Mercedes , so a bigger screen for my gadget is a must! votes: 0
Option 4: I play very fast, the connection can`t keep up with my moves, An upgrade in technology is welcome. votes: 1
Option 5: I don`t give a sh** about it. Plain old PC/MAC is better for now. votes: 5

Er, a strange poll, but there you go...

Yes - these clients are driving me mad - as you will have seen from my other post.  I have however met one or two good players from this source - and even managed something like a fun conversation with one.  But overall - I am avoiding them until the technology moves along and gives them a stable connection!

I wish that would be me :P

No, not all odesys mobile players are droppers. I play mostly from there and rarely have connection problems, and play almost as fast as a PC player.
