A backgammon program for MS-DOS
"I believe Blot makes primarily other mistakes than the backgammon
programs I know. Due to the selective (rather speculative) style
definitely Blot is tactically the weakest program of all (with
outrageous blunders in the endgame), but positionally not as flawed as
many computer opponents."
Blot has good results against many backgammon progs (see blot.doc).
If you have any comments on blot, the authors are glad to receive mail
from you. In case you don't want to bother with sending (real) mail,
you can E-mail me, I'll forward your comments to the authors.
The programm is still being developed, so be prepaired to get new blot
versions soon :-).
I hope you enjoy the programm!
