There were a few April showers, but a good time was had by all. And there were pennies from heaven for all the winners. Join us in May to see those flowers bloom.

We have developed a new BGBB ranking list, based on the ELO systems used by the online servers and the former KG list. The basic idea is that you gain points for matches won (and lose points for matches lost), based on the length of the match and the difference in ratings between you and your opponent. Check it out.
