This is probably the 'best' list based on voting by their peers. There no
universal rating system like in chess, so this will have to do, (but most
people would say this IS a pretty good list.

There was this thing called something like Kent Goulding's International
Backgammon Rankings and it was very good ranking system ( lots of
tournaments and lots of years ) but some years ago all basic information
were lost due to pc nervous breakdown .
Since then they have tried to build the system up again and have added some
information from some tournaments but i think it is in ice right now for
some reason i don't know .
Maybe it is because lack of people doing it ?
Same time some part of the old information of some players was lost too so
the list what is up now is not very valid ( not enough of information
added ).

So if there is somebody who is willing and can do the basic work ........

I think it would be very good for the whole backgammon society if that
ranking system will be up again some day , the sooner the better .

This site is worth looking at just for the psychadelic logo, especially when
you hover the mouse over it. Cool.
