What do you like about checkers?: I enjoy learning more and more as i go. despite its alleged simplicity the game is incredibly complex and rewarding.

I am looking at FMJD and WCDF official websites and don't see any updates. These are the only sites we can trust and which control and govern title.

FMJD see us as an unwelcome distraction IMHO.... and they treat us as such.... they have the strength and numbers we do not and therefore they can get away with it...

WCDF site was updated after reminding but FMJD site keeps silent. Did anyone reported here ?

We continue losing countries at the time when 100 and Russian-Brazilian checkers take tempo and advantage. Even such countries as Uganda, Zambia, Thailand, Japan where people played draughts, started mainly playing 10x10 in the past 2-3 years. In China they opened 10x10 schools.

We are coming to elections of new WCDF President next year and must address all these questions.
