Subject: I think PAWNS should really think what tourneys to sign up for
cause I looked at 2 backgammon tourneys and see pawns in them. With those tourneys they r going to take a long time to play. I don't know if management can make a note for the pawns, that they might want to play in Fast Start - First 5 to sign - by BIG BAD WOLF. So that way they would not be locked in a tourney that may take 6 months to a year to play. Is just a thought I had. Well I said my thing so back to my couch in the corner I go.
:o{P``````
Finally made landfall near Stuart, Backoff and Floosie....but, it's still creeping along.
I've been getting High Wind Advisories on the radio ever since it made landfall. They are expecting gusts of close to 80mph up in my neck of the woods.....the southern half of the county is supposed to be getting worst end of it.
Even worse, by 8am, it's expected to still be in the southern part of Central Florida and not expected to clear out of the peninsula area until 8pm.
This storm has certainly worn out its welcome......as if it didn't wear it out before coming here.
I'm ok. The power is starting to go off around here. The winds and the rain is picking up. It's been a very long day, and probably another 20 or 24 hours before I'm out of it.
it's ugly down here right now. 100 mph winds aren't too bad for short periods of time. This storm is moving so slow that's we are looking at this kinda weather for 12-16 hours.
we are only 9 blocks from the beach here. we were supposed to be out of here by 2pm thursday. We never planned on leaving though. Our place is less than a year old. We have shutter-proof glass, hurricane shutters, and 10" thick concrete walls. I think we are just fine.
thank you all for your kind words.
we got to my sons last night, and i'm glad we left, it took us almost 3 days, and most of the cars on 1-95 from florida to n.y had florida plates. there's no gas or ice to be had, the stores are boarded up and there is no power in st. cloud, and it hasn't hit osceola county yet. the winds are 50 mph now. i hope everyone that stayed will be safe.
You could cut down the win number from that if you cancel out the frogs earlier that cant be jumped any more, but suppose this is wrong board for this now :o(
Thank you that is good to know,It takes a long time to play the game and if you do not have to think after 128 points it will be great to just move anywhere without thinking
In one of my tournament games I had a draw because at the end of the game we both had 110 for points....Does that meen in other games the first person to reach 111 points will win and don't have to think when they play the rest of the game of Froglet?
I just thought it was pretty amazing if it's random placement that they could be identical, that's all.. therefore was more concerned that maybe there was a problem with the random thingummijig ?? :)
I've had games which look very similar - but i know that it does not really matter so i never really compared square by square..... but really close if not the same
OK, I've looked again, had both games side by side in 2 different windows. They ARE exactly the same !!! Making me doubt myself indeed.. :-D Maybe you weren't looking at the right games ? ;)
Am I correct in thinking that the pieces are placed randomly in froglet ? It's just that I've noticed 2 of my games in the same tournament have what appears to be the same layout.. games 447881 and 447884
Thanks. That's a wonderful resource, I'm thinking of timing out if the bug isn't corrcted in time but if such a possibility is available I wouldn't like to seem churlish.

The tournament starting process has been acting very strange the past day or so.
Take for example my "Fast Start Froglet" tournament. Currenlty as I write this, #1-6 has started, #7 & #8 are in the waiting stage, and #9 has started (passing up #7 & #8)
& a couple of others are "stuck" in the waiting games section - will add this to Bug Tracker.
I disagree. I think the paid users here can expect to know what is done when someone not only opens an additional account but accepts a membership for that account. Like it or not, Long John played in a pawn tourney with his QWERTY account and won a membership. I think this IS a matter for all of us to know what is being done. It violates more than the user agreement. Or is there no teeth there?
