Emne: Re: games with fixed openings
rabbitoid: Of course. A graphic game editor will do it.

Emne: games with fixed openings
Fencer: if you are implementing games or tournaments with prefixed first moves, would it be possible for a player to devise such games?

It would be great tool to analyze a position with some other player.

As interface to define such games, either as a text input with the BK notation for the game, or a graphic game editor.

To know what game they were looking at before this action....

What would that matter? Just curious here.

Emne: How about "Last Game Viewed"?
I notice many people have "logging off" or "viewing main page" as their last action. How about we see the last game they were looking at before this action?

The people who saw/experienced it may remember how it worked, and might be able to offer their perspective on the merits of the implementation.

Is that another suggested feature?

Did anyone here every play on Playsite.com? They use to have realtime elimination tournaments that were scheduled in advance on the site, it would be quite a large draw at times.

Emne: Re: Tournaments
grenv: Good idea, except that normally 1 plays 4, 2 plays 3.

It depends. In the US Chess Federation, out of a pool of 100, 1 would play 51, 2 would play 52, 3 would play 53.... and 50 would play 100.

The rational is that the relative "rating difference" among the participants would be more or less constant.

I didn't read all the conversation (i will....) but i think you speak about adding new ways/systems of playing tournaments. I would like to see a ladder system but most of all i would love to see a knock-out system alone or mixed with groups, something like CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.......
It will bring new life to Brainking tournaments.....!

grenv & Walter Montego: Yes and Yes.

One of the best features of this site is that users can create their own tournaments - so to have options of more different types of tournaments would be a great addition.

Emne: Re: Tournaments
BIG BAD WOLF: You could have a seeded single elimination type tournament as tennis is done. If the number of people at the start isn't a power of two it's no problem. The seeding could be based on the rating of each player. Say you had 13 people sign up. The top three seeds would get a bye round, 4 vs. 13, 5 vs. 12, 6 vs. 11, 7 vs. 10, and 8 vs. 9. The second round could be reseeded as hockey does, or the brackets could be kept the same as basketball and tennis do. 1 vs. winner of 8-9, 2 vs. winner of 7-10, 3 vs. winner 6-11, winner of 4-13 vs. winner of 5-12. I would think a double elimination tournament could also be set up along similiar lines.

Emne: Tournaments
... and speaking of Ladders, i would love to see other tournament options.

For example, a ladder system.

I would also love to see "bracket" type tournaments as an option, in addition to our round-robin type of tournaments. (For example a 4 person bracket - player 1 plays player 3, and player 2 plays player 4 - the winners of those 2 games then go on and play each other. (4,8,16,32, or 64 player tournaments - or with a little work, make it with "odd" amount of players, but give random people passes into the next round.)

By the way, are "ladders" that are mentioned in the feature request competition ladders or is it a game of some sort?

Emne: Re: Thanks for little tweaks
Fencer: I have noticed some little adjustments to options, such as sending messages to all members of a fellowship at the same time, checking progress over months' time in a particular kind of gameplay (chess progress, for example, over a year's time in a graph), direct messaging, length, and some others I may have overlooked for the purpose for this message. Liquid and Fencer, for all that you have done, and all you continue to do, I thank you from the great state of Georgia. I just renewed my membership again, and I have been well pleased with your work.

What if player A copies the moves of player B?

7. April 2005, 16:48:02
grenv 
ON the subject of final rounds, I would like to be able to choose the method. For instance 3 wins is unfair to black in some games, so here 2 or 4 games may be fairer, or play consecutive games with a split leading to another round (much quicker to play the games concurrently).

7. April 2005, 16:41:33

I think any BKR relevant action should count here, i.e. any move from the 3rd on in a rated game

7. April 2005, 16:27:57

Yes.

Tilpasset af Grim Reaper (7. April 2005, 16:27:50)
I would just like to add something to the equation here. I get pulled into a great many "3 wins" matches in the finals sections of tournaments. If you look at my profile, it looks like I have only 1 completed game of Gothic Chess for the whole year, when in fact I have some games wrapped up in the envelope of 3-wins matches that have not "counted" yet.

I would like to think that any such completed game, even though not yet "known" to the outside world, should be able to reset such a timer countdown.

I mention this because some of these 3-wins matches are very, very long.

Hrqls: 3 months for pawns, 6 months for paying members. Or something like that. It's written in my TODO list somewhere ...

Emne: not playing for bkr
fencer plans to implement it that way. he posted something this a little time ago .. i think he wanted to make it 6 months (or even 3?)

A year is a bit long is it not? Maybe not? Just seems weird to get yourself so high and then not want to:

a) improve your position
b) defend your position

Emne: Re:
Aragon: Player, who didn't played a rated game for a year, should be removed from the rating list. If he/she plays again, the old rating is used and the player appears on the rating list again. This is how FIDE does for ELO chess ratings.

7. April 2005, 12:17:27
Badinage 
Maybe this has been apprached before but I cant remember: Is there any plan to start a BKR Penalty for players that refuse invites?

An example being the current leadr on Battle Boats Plus has not played that game since September last year i think, and has had an open invitation for a few days now to play me, with no success. Are there people that just play a few games, get a high BKR and then just sit back and never play again for fear of loosing?

I think when a person that is in the top 20 refuses to play a rated game they should loose some BKR........any views???

Highlight what you want to print.

Go to File, Print (not the printer icon in the toolbard)

There you should see something about a "Print Range" - where you will have choices like "All", Pages X or X, or "Selection".

Selection will only print what you have highlighted.

(of course this is me writing if for a PC user using any major web browser - IE, Firefox, etc..)

Emne: Re: Printed Version?
BIG BAD WOLF:

Hmmm, have never done such a thing.
I've never seen the option to do just a highlighted area. If I just hit my print button it always prints the whole page..

Emne: Re: Printed Version?
Arctic Warrior: You could just highlight the area you want to print, then choose to print only the "selection" of what you selected, and not the default of "all"

I wanna be able to add myself to my friends list.....
I dont often know what I am doing, so it would be nice to stalk myself and see what I am up to LOL

Emne: Re: Multi-game tournaments.
grenv: And mine. Even though I'm wondering if it would be made available for pawns (with game slot limitations and all - I guess it could happen for 2 or 3 game type tournaments).
Anyway, if not, one more incentive for some pawns to become paying members

Emne: Multi-game tournaments.
The current multi-game tournaments are nothing more than a bit of syntactic sugar to create multiple tournaments with the same settings. For instance, if one were to create a "backgammon variations" tournament, it will give 6 different winners, not a "backgammon variations champion".

I think it would be nice to be able to create tournaments where people played their opponents in all of the selected games.
