tarcellius: ah yes, sorry, were you alread in a tournament before you became a Knight?

mybirthdaysoon: That's the confusing part. I am already in two pente tournaments right now, both of which are running and partially completed. Which seems to contradict the "one tournament" rule right there. For all I know I can play the upcoming pente tournament with no trouble, too.

tarcellius: The other thing you can do, is if neither tournaments have started yet, just remove yourself from the one you dont want to be in.

tarcellius: I believe the tournament will just boot you out since you already have a Pente tournament. If you really wanted to play, I guess you could resign your Pente tournament game, and since you would lose the section if you did, you could ask Fencer to allow you to play in the other.

Question for Brainking tournament experts: is there a definitive way to tell whether I will be accepted into a tournament when it starts?

My concern is membership-wise. Knight membership says I can only be in one tournament of a game type at a time. But I appear to be in two pente tournaments right now, so I'm not sure I understood that correctly.

The important thing is that I be eligible for aaru's pente tournament when it starts in a few days. Is there a button to "check eligibility now" or the like? What happens if I'm ineligible (do I get booted the day of the start with no option to deal with it)?

Thanks very much, tarcellius

hexkid: I already had to recreate the tournament once when I couldn't count and added 8 games instead of 7.

I was thinking about waiting since I think some new games Fencer might add will turn into my new "favorite" games - but O'well - I'll just add more tournaments for those games when they come.

BIG BAD WOLF: If you recreate the 7 tournament in a few days (weeks?) you might manage to make it tournament #21777 :)

Along with some of the "fast start" tournament (http://brainking.com/en/Tournaments?trnst=0&u=2560), I have 2 special tournaments to sign up for.

#3000 - This is my #3,000 tournament on the site - starts in about 11 days or sooner (Number of players is LIMITED - so first sign up, first start) - ☺►►►►►►►►►► # 3,000 ◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄☺
