I honestly don't know anyone who uses Goldtoken. The highest level of online play is currently playok.com aka kurnik

I play in GT, so does Irma and so does Jan andd so do a number of excellent players. I suggest ACF members join the ACF club in GT which has a ladder and a mechanism for challenging one another.

GT has some pluses and some minuses. It has 11-man, which IYT does not. It has inter-club matches. And for folks like me who like other variants (Pool, Russian, Brazilian, International, Spanish and so forth) it is the best turn-based site on the web.

There are a few glitches in GT. It allows loss of turn as a penalty for being late as a default in friendly games, but 1) you can by mutual agreement change that, and 2) the player who was not late can then pass if he chooses, so the opponent will not benefit from being late. I also still do not like 3-move games where you have to complete one side before you play the other. But those are minor glitches.

I definitely recommend GT.

My alias is Guanarteme in GT and vatecubano in IYT.
