Hi!

I just received a link to some Nordic Open 2016 matches (Thanks Steen!) and have uploaded the first ones from the Champions Main division:

Michael Weile (5.03) - Raj Jansari (5.75) Final
Michael Weile (5.42) - Volker Sonnabend (5.05) SF
Mochy (2.79) - Raj Jansari (4.23) R4
Michael Larsen (3.09) - Michael Weile (5.12) R3
Mochy (1.86) - Eric McAlpine (6.25) R2
Lars Trabolt (2.78) - Michihito Kagemaya (3.78) R1

If you haven't registered a user yet (you should! :-) ) you can play these matches directly from the above links or download the matches and play them locally (look for the disk symbol).

I have also linked up the youtube videos so you can view these while going through the match:



Enjoy! I know that I will! :-)

Best regards,

Are there any links for downloading these matches in XG format?

Hi!

There are many ways to download these matches (although I like you to play them on the server generating a tiny bit of ad revenue when you do so):

1. From the match info dialog



2. From the matches list


3. From the board


4. From the public archive
​

Click on the disk icon and a download should start.

Most of these require that you log in first except 3. It might not be displayed there either if you have a narrow screen. Then you have to log in and use the other alternatives.

Today I have uploaded the last batch of matches that I have from Nordic Open:

Mochy and Akiko (2.21) - Thomas and Freddie (2.00): http://www.backgammonstudio.com/inde...&argument=7649
Thomas Rönn and Jorgen Granstedt (2.65) - Michael Larsen and Peter Friberg (3.49): http://www.backgammonstudio.com/inde...&argument=7648

Thomas Kristensen (2.93) - Tore Fredriksen (3.31): http://www.backgammonstudio.com/inde...&argument=7647
Michy (2.60) - Freddie Noer (6.77): http://www.backgammonstudio.com/inde...&argument=7646
Jürgen Olowski (5.52) - Thomas Myhr (5.80): http://www.backgammonstudio.com/inde...&argument=7645

There are several more matches from the DK vs The World Speed but you have to go exploring the server to find those.

Florin Popa also sent me a couple of matches he had from Nordic Open (Thanks Florin!):

Florin Popa (3.79) - Giorgio Castellano (4.69): http://www.backgammonstudio.com/inde...&argument=7627
Konstantinos Mitrelis (4.05) - Florin Popa (3.22): http://www.backgammonstudio.com/inde...&argument=7628

If you do have recorded matches from Nordic Open please send them to me and I'll upload them to the database!

Already looking forward to Nordic Open next year! :-)

Best regards,
TP
