Welcome to the checkerplay quiz (beta)
The checkerplay quiz is a tool to improve your game and find
leaks or just to enjoy solving some backgammon problems.
Quiz settings:
You can specify what kind of positions will come up. You have
these options:
Position filter:
- All: this setting will simply bring a random
position, regardless if you have already seen or solved this
position before.
- Only new positions: here you will get only
positions, that you have never seen before.
- Only mistakes: you will only get positions
where you have made a mistake and never solved.
- Only mistakes and new: here you get positions
never seen or positions not solved.
Your answers are divided into the following ranges: solved (eq.=0.0), inaccuracy (eq.<0.02), error (0.02<eq.< 0.08) and blunder (eq.>0.08).
Category filter:
- All: positions from all categories
- specific category: self-explanatory
The cool thing is, that you can combine these filters, e.g. you
could set the position filter to "only mistakes and new" and the
category filter to "opening first move". This combination would
bring up positions from the "opening first move" until you have
solved all this positions. Very useful for training.
Statistics and Results:
Here you can browse your results and see the right solution.
There are also detailed statistics for your answers. You have
several options to browse your results.
Filters:
- Equity: you can choose from, all, inaccuracy
or worse, error or worse and blunder
- Time: you have the option to choose different
time based filters.
Sort: You can sort your results either by
position number, equity or date, clicking twice reverses the
order.
You have also the option to delete your answer, but you should
do that only if you really mis-clicked, otherwise your stats are
falsified.
The quiz can be used for free until the end of the beta test,
you only need a free account to start. Have fun!
