Teema: first (as usual) there are a lot of gothic apologies pending
bet they won't be even half way excuses ...
so merely again start to misuse a public board.
We are not interested to see your porcupine jokes here. Please, finally
consider keepin your inessentials out. You gothic Mr. are definitely
beyond the last who should swell as reference for behaviour, here.
So better keep those mental masturbations privat ~*~
I could just offer a naughty joke in The Cave to cheer you up :")
the chess boards are my domain here
- as I stated repeatedly without success.
I know too well how it is when every now and then,
- there's of sudden noise around and you're told it's
about you, not only then I prefer to be left alone anyway - darn ...
I cannot please all folks either - not with every post after all.
good morning, chief :D
thanks for you have spoken ;)
guess Mr. Trice will not be pleased to hear that
you have made VERY clear that he cannot command
you around, here. He's really a bit hard on grasping. ~*~
<I complained about a deliberately canceled tournament
- I had already won my group and an announced prize thus ...
onto that I made a bit fun at a poll consisting of only 3 votes ... :P
big deal.
c'mon this is the tournament board we aren't in kindergarden are we ?? >8(
he could have left it by that one growling comment, my *promises promises*
and end of my debate. no not so mister obsessive nerd. he started
an endless chain of uncreative and illiterate provocations like
he did also - out of the blue - last weekend at the bk.com board
(violating any intelligence, remember guys ? I was supposed to have
taken illigitimate advantage by uhhhm double vacancy days .... :O huh ??
so because I had official vacancy days while the server was down anyway,
I gained advantage ?? no way to play so why should I waste vacancy ...)
I succeeded in lightmindedly dodging that ridicoulous assaults beyond
any niveau and intelligent observation - not without help of course
- from the Holy Lotos and ... :D ... Auntie Margarete ... :P ... ~*~
you should better try that with the notorious goatic cheater !
who's always off topic when behaving like a wildboar to
waste the boards and, who rabies-like attacks erraneously
when screwing up periodicly as many here have had to suffer.
(do you want me forwarding the complete board of yesterday
before he started his uhhmm selective deleting to blur traces ?
insulted me continuously, hours ! while I dodged like a boarero.)
about two dozens complaints about his bullying, to his domain here at your server, have also been deleted silently - ah blah !!
**************************************************
He offered 'unlimited' cheater support to all my opponents and,
you dare to warn me for documenting where the money stinks ?
Careful, deadend of culture, I sadly have to warn you. :(
but would be a bad idea next time when it comes to losing a gothic game
against a Janus expert, instead of again exposing the same strange amnesia
you suffered last time - dunno whether you have green teeth, but that's no
bluetooth yet - anyway when server-crashes should continue to have direct
impact, on your own memory too, you probably should stay disconnected
- i.e. sheer technically - oh yes, from sportsmanship you cAn,
easily of course, since long, as we know. good job for a start ... :P ... ~*~
what has poor Auntie Margarete done to you ? 0:)
ah blah, you have been a rude rowdy anyway - all the time
that's not auntie's fault - now Uncle Theodor is solely your problem ... ~*~
I know only one person who would have also economic interests in
a server-crash to blur the verbal traces left by weeks of his execrable
notoriousness, awww and what a nice co-incidence, probably the only
one too, who's granted to upload scripts to brainking, because the
gothic homepage is hosted there ... now that is a speculation ...
documented then that I already had won my tourney-group,
but easy speculation again who was not pleased by right that ... blah ~*~
Teema: New Battleboats Prize Tournament - *Swimmers On Your Marks !* ~*~
Framed by the KillingMachine's 'Adopt A Pawn Program' you now
have got the chance to win half a year Knight Level Membership ...
Only stipulation for a signup: today, you must have been on brainking
one full month already - to minimize creation of redundant accounts yano ... 8)
please make sure you have four game-slots free - YAY !! only four
- that's like so consumerfriendly - great !! my modest and humble
consideration is worldfamous indeed ... 0:) ~*~
PS sign here for a frolic splish-splash,
in warm waters - that is if the heat-backup works ... :D
I have two valid addresses myself, in the same
house but different households - the effort seems
fuzzy as IP tracking is undermined by local network
and all the fancy stuff from my treasure chest of
sophisticated programs making an apple a prune.
Let's say it stiff ... superficial nonsense !
Robert J. Fisher made it although the Russians
evidently cheated by making easy draws against
each other while focussing against capitalism ... :D
Kasparov made it although Karpov cheated by occupying
the mental capacities of thirteen grandmasters and their ideas
which to use they were not allowed without first offering to him,
in the time of a desired lasting soviet chess dynasty ...
Sportsmen have always had only two secundants throughout history,
of course only for the daily game-aftermath ... ~*~
No !
especially the spirit of those so called rules makes no sense altogether.
As previously ignored, CaoZ' siblings are strong enough
to play any tourney here on their own strength ...
and who could stop anyone from cheating anway ...
ever've heard of telephone ?? ( basic technics in Europe )
it cAn deprive you from the need of living
in the same household with any imaginable helper ...
Again I second the idea to exclude pawns from the Championship,
3000$ should be luring enough to afford 10$ for a Knight-Strike ...
or - as peacepickle said - revealing sensible personal data
prematurely should (if anyway) be obligatory only for pawns ... ~*~
Teema: Janus and Fortress, Prize Tourneys terminated.
My apologies to all who had patience for quite a while ...
But after almost a month without the required 15 players
signing up, I sadly had to close them now ... :/
The Janus Tourney will be re-opened around end of october ...
To attract a higher number of occasional players I'll create
a Crowded Backgammon Prize Tourney (Pawns only) ...
if Fencer knows bwildman's addy and name he just cannot use
the same name and addy for other IDs, and if I'd invoke friends
any control-sense should volatilize at the latest ... ~*~
I forsee the Pente ratings in a frolic flipping when all
our Maharadscha's siblings would take bk under siege ... :D
and actually they could do it without consulting, by their own strength ...
advisory during a game violates the rules of online-tourneys ...
- but, happens regardless of people living together or not ...
e.g. I have a spooky feeling when my online-opponents list
shows two people watching a game of one of them versus me ...
nonetheless I hope for an appropriate sportsmanship,
that no control cAn entirely ensure ... ~*~
I use this opportunity to summon a strong *Hurray*
in praise of Erika and shaggath who made it as first
to win their 50th tournament at brainking ! good job, guys ~*~ :)
Teema: but there are yet two prize tourneys waiting to start ...
sponsored by nobody but me without any merchandising ... :D
maybe I was a bit blonde-squared to set the minimum players to 15 for
kinda exclusive variants - it was to avoid the impression it's just for a few ... :/
I shall wait some days yet - else I'd sadly have to close them
and re-orgagnize it as lucky game prize tourney gammon and bb,
to safely attract a higher amount of pawns ... hope to see you :") ... ~*~
I believe to remember that the 'minimum players' restriction
counts only for the total amount of players in a tourney ...
i.e. not for the subgroups required to be generated now ... ~*~
as it appears in chinese and japanese mythology
- even treated with such a respect that it was
avoided entirely as aim ... the imagination of
perfection is stronger than any manifestation.
take eight time eight squares, voila - you have
the xianxi board the 'yellow river' not counted in.
played is it at the nine times TEN crosspoints.
the fortress three times three crosspoints ... :)
go/pente/keryo board contains four quarters
of nine times nine squares - again played on
the 'lines'- happens to be a running pattern in
asiatic games to CLOSELY avoid perfection ...
actually sense of the game, as a go-master said,
goal is not, to win but to snapshot a momentary
cosmic divergence of the tiniest possible kind.
real masters try to win by just ONE stone plus :)
~*~
Teema: keryo - maybe just a definition problem ? :D
a protected name therefore a leading
'c' for 'children' is missing or 'b'
for beginner ?
I'm enjoyed trying it out, but at the latest
when I met CaoZ I knew it makes almost no
sense to be player 2, on such a small board, on
top without move restriction - my opening book
for C-Keryo basicly is the complete collection
of the games he lost at iyt. ;) not too many ...
regarding chess ... I bet the Chinese would
claim Xianxi as the only RIGHT one, as Shogi
would be worshipped equally in Japan ... :)
same roots - but continental drift to say so :P
not to mention that the original inventor India
almost lost it, because as 'Schaturanga' kind of
oracle and banned by religion for some centuries.
the persians saved it and deprived it from dice.
I don't know why D'mitri is growing annoyed with
the variations, as one also could declare all those
games obsolete, for being not the original 'Go' ...
I'd enjoy that we have
the choice and, made mine:
NO B-Keryo furthermore YAY ! ~*~ ;)
I did not target any players
- just that certain 'tourncontol'
and I admit until summer 2002 I had no
objections about quick and proper responses.
btw - no lists please I'm sure everywhere
folks going for an easy score happen to exist :P
Savage was very co-operative ... we really
did everything in private initiative to avoid
additional work for IYT farest possibly ...
we delayed our moves up to the limit, suggested
to just add Grandpatzer to our group as simple
solution - nothing happened ... as we figured
the sweat spilled, when a server for a million
goes down, no pushing, we were patient, idle. ~*~
how often the real Keryo was suggested as
improvement, (we offered Keryo-Pro as name)
not even a single answer - guess I've not reached
12 tries yet or a diffuse other restriction ... :p
in a particulary remarkable case, during the
Durham power outage (which understandably casted
a lot of messed up results 1st) and, re-instating
and catching up with 'orphane-rounds' promised,
I found myself in a chess final - as deserved :D
but a game of the previous round, supposed to be
drawn was timed out by my opponent, I re-instated
even before official intervention - but the final
ran ... :O - my main competitor in the semifinal,
grandpatzer, should have tied up - but my win was
falsely counted ... got to meet 'savage' alone ...
we protested via game-diagram-link, via email more
than a dozen times - peakhold of the bluntness
I encountered was, they nagged me for bothering
*what the heck I was up to as *I* was qualified
and playing* ... I don't even mind - grandpatzer
owed to be there ALSO, THAT was my point !
I won the tourney but, with him in the final group
it would have been much tougher and more valuable.
