FYI I do not mind the slowness of play in these tourneys at all. I simply made an observation and let the general public know for future reference. These games are not affecting me at all however I have seen others complaining about slow play lately so I thought I would just bring it to peoples attention.

Right. Stop it. Now.

题目: Stirring stuff, eh Bernice?
Would you mind deleting your last post? I'll delete this one right afterwards. Or perhaps you can just leave the first two sentences with the reference to the bed and the peskiness in it and get rid of the rest? That'll be good for me and I'll delete this post. Why he takes his vacations is his business . It also shows that you're spending time scrutinizing his profile, account, and tournaments. You're not ever going to join one of his, are you? So why care what he does, or ask publicly? The tone of your query doesn't sound like simple curiosity to me and since he has enabled anyone to write to him (or atleast he took me off his enemy list, did he take you off?) you could just write him a personal message and get the facts without me and the rest of us having to watch it get going again.

题目: Slow players
bad luck LongJohn...as the saying goes ....you made your bed...lie in it. (in regards to your tourneys)

But I must agree with you the waiting is a pesky thing :)

But may I enquire (without getting into a slanging match) why it has been that your holidays have extended from mid february up until (at the moment) June????

you did say it was because of the kid, but it is way past and nearly out of napkins hahahahaha...why do you have such long holidays LOL :) :) and out of curiosity...how the hell do you do that....have months of extended holidays hehehehe...please explain

题目: Re: Slow Players holding up My tournaments
And that's why I forfeited my games in that tournament.

I would rather not have a time limit, but I've found that a good number of players need it to prod them into moving. When something comes up and you can't make it to the computer, I can understand. But some people have the "wait until the last minute every move" strategy and it's very annoying to play this type of player. It might be within the rules of play, but it's certainly not in the spirit of the game.

Instead of a fixed time limit for each move, I'd like an average time limit per move. That way I could play a lot one day, and then skip a few days and not worry about it. The average could be figured by the time after my opponent enters his move until I enter mine. That'd be my average. His would be based on the time after I enter my move until he moves. Seems like it'd work. A 15 move per month game would be the same as a move per day. There could be a buffer time at the start of the game so a timeout wouldn't happen in the first couple of moves, and then it'd be enforced. It might take a wide spread of averages to get the feel of which times I'd like to play, but after awhile I'd know. Both systems could still be offered, and it might even be possible to combine them for a hybred of the two.

题目: Re: Slow Players holding up My tournaments
well u r the 1 that changed the days. So maybe these players r upset over u changing things without tell any1 or letting them have a chance to remove themself from long playing tourneys. So like people tell me " just deal with it now ". Well back to my corner hehehe
:o{P``````

LJ - Which tournaments are those

Is it the ones which you offered a prize with the quote of: "would not start until XX people sign up", plus had it for 5 days per turn ----

And then when you switched it all around and made it a non-prize tournament, changed the description, changed the time to 30 days per move, and then started the tournament before many of the people who joined had a chance to see the new "rules" and have a chance to leave the tournament..... which now did not have a prize, had a very long time limit, and was nothing like what they signed up for?

or is it another of your tournaments you are talking about?

题目: Slow Players holding up My tournaments
If anyone is interested, I just thought I would list a few notoriously SLOW players that are holding up a lot of people in some of my tournaments.
I will say though, I am not suggesting that they are breaking any rules, however, if people wish to finish their tournies in a timely and fun manner, do not allow these people to play.

Goonerg (Not too bad but slower than most)
PUPPETMASTER (8 moves in 40 days)
Eriisa (11 moves in 40 days)
Princess (4 moves in 40 days)
mysticdragon (8 moves in 40 days)

题目: Pedro Martínez wins 50 Brains
Although the tourney is not over yet, Pedro Martínez has already won it so he gets 50 Brains.
Congrats.
A message has already been sent to Fencer to credit you. Well done

23. 四月 2004, 23:08:48
Stevie 
Oh yeah, 600 members x 4 = 2400 divide by a couple and adjust by a tad, 9000+ - result

ummmmmmmm 2000+ then

I was referring to active non-multi ID pawns :)

23. 四月 2004, 23:04:39

Lythande 
The delete option isn't all bad. Sometimes we say things in the heat of anger and immediately regret them (right -after- hitting send). An immediate delete in such cases can be a lifesaver. But, once a post has replies, deleting single posts and leaving replies to the thread is just ill-mannered, IMHO.

If the boards were somehow threaded, it might be easier for Fencer to implement something like that: Allow deletion by creator only up until a reply is made. Hrm...

22. 四月 2004, 03:11:47
LongJohn GZ 
not having autopass is ok, so the delete option must be also :)

题目: No worries BBW
I often talk to myself and your posts make perfect sense. ;)

I don't really like it either and will use the edit feature only. But until Fencer changes it, it must be ok. What other reason for it can there be?

21. 四月 2004, 15:47:52
coan.net 
Well I hate the delete option - now my post look like I'm talking to no one (So now I need to go edit my post to point out that they were in reply to Andersp's post that were deleted) :-(

题目: My view is
there was nothing said that was wrong. Andersp actually brought up a good question. His question is completely on topic (unlike my post now) There was no need to delete anything but no big deal that he did either.

BTW, I wrote a poem on the whole thing and it's in Debate. Go there...it's a bit rough but you can work it. :)

And Bernice, get busy on that game. I think I'm catching on!! :)

21. 四月 2004, 06:47:00

I thought that things sounded a bit gobbledegook....why must people do that...why post and then delete...so childish :(

I think the delete opton should be taken away and just let the moderator delete what he wants :(

How convenient. :/

I think Bumble is going to tell us to move on. :) So, let's go to the debate club. And those that want to follow it, have to join! woo hoo we'll double the size of the group. :)

21. 四月 2004, 06:18:32

I think a disscusion about that too has been at the debate club when the boost a pawn program 1st came up.

(UPDATE: This post is in reply to Andersp post about "everyone can afford to pay since they can afford a computer" post that was deleted by Andersp) -- BBW

Afford to pay vs. able to pay

Almost anyone who visits BK would be able to pay if they had to. BUT can they afford it is a totally different question. They could do without food, or insurance, or shoes, or gas to get to work - and would be ABLE to pay, but possible not actually be able to AFFORD it.

I really can't afford to extend my membership which is why I was waiting until the last minutes before I worried about it. (which until recently, i thought I only had a couple of days... now I found out I have about a month before I worry about it.) I really can't afford it, but since I do enjoy the site so much, I will probable be able to pay.

21. 四月 2004, 06:15:44
Lythande 
Just because you can? Didn't say you couldn't, but that doesn't mean everyone can. The computer could have been donated, or could have been purchased in a time when finacial condition was sunnier. Or even.. *gasp* that pawn might play from a library!

题目: But it's just a minor glitch
I've always understood it to be a pawn winner. That is the point of the tourney (ok, the real point is $ for BK, but the pawn thing is part of the big picture).

题目: Andersp is right about the description
Fund Raiser If you enter this tournament a fee of $5 will be charged once we have enough participants to make it worthwhile. Thank you very much. Prize money will be $50 Each section winner will recieve a 6 months brain knight membership. Enter to win.

Linda: Sorry. I thought I'd seen it in the description. Must have been from one of your early posts somewhere. The point, of course, was that the membership going to pawns was pretty well advertised. :/

题目: on the info page
I have some great news. MORE PRIZES
Each section winner will receive a 6 month brain knight membership. This applies only to pawns.
