Well, it depends on the situation and position of your QUEENS, but if you play against someone who at least doesn't play this game for the first time, I would recommend a draw. IMHO, you need three queens to capture your opponent's one queen. 1v1, 1v2, 2v2, 2v3, 3v3 should be a draw.

when can a game in czech checkers be considered a draw ?

we both have 3 kings ... and nothing else left

good books Bad Bishop

Pedro - He was a member, but I believe he was banned so now he is a pawn again. A lot can happen in 1 day! :-)

How can you be in as a pawn???

thanks Bad Bishop

I'm In!!

There is a lot of websites about checkers (draughts), e.g. Jim Loy's page is a good start. I like Bob Newell's page very much. Books in English (about checkers) are also no problem, but I personally don't know any book/website in English about the Czech variant, there are AFAIK only some about the "pool checkers" (see Amazon). It's a pain to get some books even in Czech... :-)

Where can I find some book about checkers and its variants,for example the czech checkers?
...maybe a good link.

PauloGomes will be allowed to post now with the stipulation of any personal attacks on anyone will mean immediate and permanent banning.

Thank you Mr. Bob.

Stevie2, PauloGomes,SweetPurple and ElPutanhon have been banned from this board, due to off topic posts and personal attacks on Purple. You had been warned before about this type of behavior on this board.

I can see all theposts of those hidden like yourself also Elphuanhon

They cant see you Paulo . its because you joined in on the discussion

ok, all the accounts are hidden now.
Lets return to topic please

Thanks but he should be hidden for the other stuff (my sarcasm aside) and what remains now is mild

Purple, do you want him hidden? if so I will.

But Paulo is "on topic" as long as he is attacking Purple. When he also attacks stevie and Fencer..well that's beyond the pale.

Yes I can, and is also Stevie2 so you are not the only one they are pplaying games with.
But this is the Czech checkers board, I am only co moderator. Nightstorm will decide his fate when he is on later

Stevie: Can't you see that Paulo Gomes and El Putanthon are the same person?
Paulo: I'm gonna try to convince Fencer of the necessity to get you out of this site now.

come on guys, ive hidden 2 of you for now until Nightstorm arrives to make a decision.
Czech checkers please. Ive left Pauogomes visible because most posts are on topic

I think you would have to wait and see if you lose before they get second queen. If they get second queen before beating you. Then i would say its a draw. so should be within the next 15 moves yes

ok, but in 15 moves or 30 ...

at the moment, you could make an error and lose the game, I dont know what wil happen in the next few moves

I think two queens vs one queen is a draw in 15 moves. what you think?

Me not crying

I know, but your name was mentioned

Sure messes up the DB's.

we are now on pawns posts must be approved

Its not a draw yet :o)

depends on the queen positions, but most likely is a draw

And about the question?
Two queens vs one queen?
is a draw?

ok, czech checkers!
two queens vs one queen is a draw?
Brave Eagles don't think so. see the game.

Stevie: please expose the language that you are talking about. if you want in can do it in a private message.

BIG BAD WOLF: do you now me from anywhere?

I think it was because of the language you used Paulogomes.
Now you are back, please keep it as czech checkers topic :o)

PauloGomes - This is Czech Checkers board, please take the issue up in private message instead of keep bringing it back up on here.

How can the pawns influence rating, for resigning the games,from a determined rating the winner does not obtain any rating points.
Bad Bishop: Is very naif who thinks thus.

Yes, it is especially bad for pawns stuck in tournaments in these situations. A membership is rather in-expensive, though! :-D

as a rook, he has 30 vacation days per year. I don't know how many he has left at this point. Hopefully not many! lol.. i have a game or 2 with him too..

And there are a limit time or not in "auto-vacation"... If he don´t play anymore I can´t participated in no more tournaments. It´s not fair! In my opinion...

Its bothering me also, that player has auto vacationed for a week now on games with me LOL

Basically, Yes. He has selected "auto-vacation".. so that games will not time out, for as many vacation days as he has left..

Another point...see the game Id=426320. The last move from klokan was in 5 October...why the guy don´t lose? its because he is a paid membership ?

Ups...ok! I only see that resign game today...:-)
ok! its explained...now I can go to the bed tranquil because the brainking don´t steel points to portuguese checkers ... lol ...

but you have only won 1 game today, the other was 31 october

Hmmm... send Fencer a message. I'm sure he will look at it for you, and either fix it, or explain why it is correct.

Yes... I looked and the score was: yesterday: 1960... today a resign game +19 points, a winner gain: + 20 points.... and my actual score = 1979!
well I´m a university teacher and I still count. For me 1960 + 20 + 19 = 1999 and not 1979...

mclaudio - What do you think the problem is? I'm looking at Graph for the past few days, and it looks normal to me.

Are you complaining that you this it is too low?

Have you looked at the Messages in your message box, at the mathematics of the BKR changes of those games?

excuse me, you asked a question, I was only answering. If you give a complete explanation then there willbe no confusion.
By the way....what does naif mean?

Hei! Yesterday I haved 1960! Don´t be naif with me! Fencer look to your Database and see what happened ! tks!

looks to me like the 20 point win took you to 1960, then the 19 point win took you to 1979 :o)
