So I came to the conclusion that I had all of these random pages but no real standard design or way to navigate around so I thought I would make all of this easier on everyone and had my coder doing some serious website restructuring.
you don't need to visit the different pages separately anymore.... just go to http://cross-board.com and it has a simple navigation bar at the top to visit all pages you might be interested in. I have also added something special that ALL of you would enjoy. You remember h4ns.net? The first real animated site for study??? Well I added it to my website so you could all have a blast from the past.
Visit http://cross-board.com and click the h4ns.net link for a strong selection of important game play. I am starting to run out of stuff to add besides round robin and swiss pairings web based program and of course the full online play site with ACF's own play room so you wont have to deal with all of us rude youths.
If you could please give me some more suggestions on what you would like to have or see on my website I will do my best to have something for everyone!!!
Please leave your comments below because I like to know that people are actually using and enjoying all the work my coder and I put into this. Without all of you I would not be doing any of this.
Thank you,
Eric Strange

I tried all the top tabs. The kurnik one did not open for me. Your site is a great addition to the checker world. THANKS!!
Shame that acf does not invest MONEY on projects like this. But their actions and inaction's speak volumes,
edit update... it did open....just took a while..it opened while i was making this post

yes the kurnik top 20 tab has to load A LOT of data so it can take a minute to come up. Glad you enjoy it

Eric, I love that problem section you added with all the comments. I was able to solve all the shots except that christmas one at the end. It had me screaming in my head after 20 minutes. The solution was very tricky! I usually find shot problems easy, but not that one.

Re: Website Update!!! With a surprise
Yes that was the first REAL animated checkers website ever created. We happened to copy the entire web page back in 2002 and a few years later Hans shut the website down. We decided to bring it back in tribute to him for his hard work. I figured your favorite shot would be the "Tribute to Moore" haha.

Yea, I tend to set up those kinds of traps a lot in my games, especially that one. I am glad you caught on and did a tribute for me.

Eric, I was thinking that maskedman from kurnik should be added to the top 20. He is almost always in the 1700s and pretty much annahilates his opponents. Do you know who he is? He says he plays in ACF.
