Babe68:He's probably sleeping or just getting up. I'm guessing but your tourney will start at the deadline you set unless you clicked the box to start right away if the tourney gets full. I think that's probably it.
Tuesday: some of the posts could have contained several tourney results instead of using single posts. Also, none contained the winners name which essentially makes the posts look like multiple posts of the same info.
I do agree that this board is the place to announce tourney winners. Personally I enjoy seeing who the winners are.
rod03801: one of the expectations when 0ne posts here is to format them properly. When thats not done, people have a right to complain. Its reasonable to expect anyone posting here to follow some level of etiquette. Posting winners is fine. But all info should be included. The tourney name and link, the winners name, and then a congrats. Otherwise it looks like spam. Yes people have the right to post winners here. But if they dont (or wont) do it properly, they ought to be held accountable. Yes hide works. So does posting it right in the first place. ;)
DeaD man WalkiN: It's limited so a lot of people can't join. Plus many pawns might be maxed out on their games so can't fit in the tourney. I think you need to make the sections smaller so that pawns will play fewer people. And I'd open it up to rooks. ;) If you do that, you will fill it up quick!
Gerry and Martes: Here's how I roll with this one. If you don't like the decision of a mod on this board, go to the mod. Discuss it on the board again and you'll be given a 24 hour hide. Do it after that and it will be longer. Continue and you will be banned from posting on this board.
Fonts: I personally don't like sloppy posts. This board is here for a reason. Huge fonts are obnoxious and if everybody used them, people certainly would complain. However, an occasional large font is fine if not over used. General announcements should be done in respectable formats and respectable fonts. Everybody else does it this way.
When a person is warned privately, and they bring that discussion public, it isn't a very wise thing to do. Read the user agreement again and you will discover why this is a bad strategy on your part.
As for Frans large font posts: His formatting is good. And his tourney is a special one. It was decided to allow it for that reason. However, if that becomes an issue, I will modify all future large font announcements.
It's simple really: See what others are doing, and do what they do.
