Subjekt: Re: How can I delete some games in my tournament?

TC: you mean in a tournament you created ... you have added some game types you dont want ?

i dont think you can remove those .. i think you will have to create a new tournament (and delete the old tournament)

you can only do this when its not running .. and any players who are signed in already wont be signed in into the new tournament

Binabik: Don't play one of those games against someone who lives in Europe or Asia... unless you know him (her) preety well and can aggree on a time to both be online and play your moves...

On the other hand, you can set the time settings so that it allows for roughly a move per day and everyone can be happy about it...

Could someone please explain how one is supposed to finish these games on time when the opponent lives in Europe or Asia? We rarely play at the same time....

BIG BAD WOLF: Okay, I think I understand how it will work, but how will this effect the games with European players? We are rarely on at the same time - how can those games go faster and/or be finished within the required time? Will they be separated by time zone in tourneys like that?

Here is a good chart to compare what the different membership levels get:

It is a little out of date (Like paid members can play in Ponds), but it is mostly up to date.

Subjekt: Re:

Czuch Chuckers: That is what we are talking about.

The "Total game time". The example is 3/1/10 means:

3 days total game time for a person.
1 day added for each move
10 days is the MAX amount of time you can have.

So if it was 3/0/10

That would mean you would get no extra time, a person would have 3 days total to play the game (Meaning if both players use all their time, 6 days max until game is over) (Plus the /10 part would not matter since no time is added)

And there is no vacations or weekends used in these types of games.

7. července 2005, 03:00:20

Sounds right.... but there is also an new one for total game time, so I am guesing that if you want to play a game in one day for example you can now do it, or in one week or something. The advantage being if you want to p[lay a fast game but dont want to ghet trapped by a one day move game, just in case something would happen..

7. července 2005, 02:34:33

Or whatever the bonus is. So basically, if you are concerned about time outs, you should look at what the "bonus" time is, as that will be the minimum amount of time you will ever have between moves ... ????

7. července 2005, 02:33:10

So, if you are a slow mover, you would potentially be down to 1 day per move all the time. Do I have that correct?

7. července 2005, 02:20:47

Subjekt: Re:

rod03801: Yes I think you have it.

For example:

3 days moves
1 day bonus
10 days total.

Your clock starts at 3 days. If it takes you 2 days to make a move, you clock is down to 1 (PLUS the bonus of 1 day) which will then leave you with 2 days for your next move.

But lets say you have the 3 days, but you move in 1 hour - leaving you with 2 days, 23 hours (PLUS the bonus of 1 day) which will then leave you with 3 days, 24 hours.

And since vacations & weekends are not used - the faster you play, the more time you can "bank" up if that tournament includes bonus time.

I think I explained it correctly.

7. července 2005, 02:16:09

So, if I moved quickly all the time in this tournament, I could potentially have a 10 day time limit? (Getting the 1 day bonus each move) Am I interpreting that part correctly?
I'm not quite understanding how it helps play faster games.. I guess I need to see it in action to get it.. Unless someone can make me understand better? :-)

Subjekt: Re: Bonus?

When I recieve an invite to backgammon, it gives me the option to write a message, but then when I do accept and write a "thank you" I get the gane back to my turn saying that I have lost the initial dice roll and then I submit this one, but my opponent will not see my originol thank you and good luck, nor is it archived. Does this make sense?

5. července 2005, 00:31:43

Subjekt: Re:

reza: It's because of site holiday's are still set for holidays. Fencer actually meant to remove them, but forgot - so the site holiday days for a few days are still set.

Fencer said that for now on, the only site holiday may be around Christmas and the rest will be removed.

4. července 2005, 23:43:34

It could be two reasons, reza. Its American Independance day, so the site has a holiday - and you have automatic vacation set. I'm not sure how that looks when its used because I haven't run out of time on any games to see, but that could be the cause.
If you want to change this, its in your settings. Just untick 'automatic vacation'.
