Tempest Game Clock vs Razzle Dazzle Backgammon

This is a COMPANION APP to the Tempest Game Clock (available at tempestclock.com) A unique, tournament-style, heavy-weighted game clock that uses your own iPhone as its high definition, full color display. This app is intended only for owners of the Tempest Game Clock: a deluxe traditional form factor chess clock (using a patented precision rocker to control play during the game, not the touch screen). It pairs with this app to deliver clear analog and digital game timing with or without increments, delays, sudden death or OT time controls. Perfect for Chess, Backgammon, Go, Scrabble, Othello/Reversi, Checkers/Draughts, and other board games. Tempest features a strict TOURNAMENT MODE - which disables all phone / text functionality during rated games per FIDE and USCF guidelines.

Stop passing around a crumpled score sheet. Razzle Dazzle Backgammon is the definitive chouette scorekeeping app -- purpose-built for multiplayer backgammon sessions. LIVE SYNC ACROSS DEVICES Create a room code and every player joins instantly. Cube decisions, scores, and box rotation update in real time on every device at the table. No more "wait, whose cube is it?" FULL CUBE TRACKING Offer, take, drop, beaver, raccoon, and settle from the cube or player controls. Per-player cube states so nothing gets lost in a fast-moving chouette. TAKE A BREAK, KEEP YOUR BALANCE Freeze a player's participation before play starts without settling up. They can sit out multiple games and return at the back of the rotation. A return during play takes effect next game. AUTOMATIC BOX ROTATION The app manages who's in the box, who rotates in, and how scores flow after each game. You focus on playing. YOUR HOUSE RULES, YOUR WAY Configure your session exactly how your group plays: - Jacoby rule - Beavers and raccoons - Auto doubles FIX A MISTAKE WITHOUT STARTING OVER Name a scorekeeper when the game starts, and a deputy if you want a second pair of hands. They can void a single game or adjust one player's total without disturbing the rest of the sheet -- no more ending the session and rescoring from memory. Everyone else keeps playing their own cube as normal. STAKES AND SETTLING UP Set your group's stake per point and follow current-game points in the LIVE row. Record actual payments by choosing who paid whom and how many points were paid, including partial payments while players stay in the game. Suggested payments help square the table at the end. You settle up between yourselves; the app never handles money. LIFETIME STATS Track performance over time with head-to-head records against every opponent, kept on your device. See who is up and who is down -- and by how much. PUSH NOTIFICATIONS Get notified when it's time for your cube decision. Stay in the loop even if you step away from the table. ACCOUNTS & SIGN-IN Optional. Sign in with an email and password -- or a one-tap email link -- to carry your display name and alert preferences to every device you play from, claim your seat in a live game, and receive push alerts. Everything except push works signed out. Lifetime stats are kept on the device that scored the games. Built for serious chouette players who want accurate scoring without the hassle. Download it, create a room, and play. razzledazzlebg.com
