fridaythecat.u.k. Posted June 23, 2009 #1 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Hi everyone I have searched the boards for the answer to my question, but the relevant posts are a couple of years old and don't mention the Ruby. I am addicted to Backgammon and my DH loves chess (although he has to re-teach me to play it every time we try to play as I forget all the rules :eek:). Anyways, does the Ruby have backgammon and/or chess boards available for everyone to play? Are they in the library? If so, do people take them out for their own use at the start of the cruise? I normally play on my laptop, but don't think I will be schlepping it with me for the cruise, so do you think I'd be better off buying a "travel" board to play? :confused: Sorry for all the questions - just a curious newbie :D But I know that you guys out there will as be knowledgeable as ever :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fridaythecat.u.k. Posted June 23, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Yes they were in the library on our Ruby cruise to be checked out. Thanks, Colo! Did you have to get there early, or did they have a few boards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colo Cruiser Posted June 24, 2009 #4 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Thanks, Colo! Did you have to get there early, or did they have a few boards? They had a few but remember that was on the inaugural in Nov so I hope they have kept up the stock. ;) I would get there early just in case, I am sure the demand is so different on each cruise.

paul929207 Posted June 24, 2009 #5 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Yes, they have board games including backgammon and chess is the library. Check on the roll call for your cruise, you might find an opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check on the roll call for your cruise, you might find an opponent. Good idea, thanks for the tip! Have already "introduced" myself on the roll call, so will try this out :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
