Universal Eyes: Is this the same kind of "Prize" tournament you initially set up here .... http://brainking.com/game/Pond?g=145 ...???

Then changed it from a Prize Pond?

Please can we have an explanation?

I understand that the tourny itself will give you some good brainking experience, but until then, isnt there an "unrated" board you could hang out on?

Billmo8: That tournament is currently in the "waiting" stage - which basicly means it should start in the next hour.

It looks like you are signed up so in an hour or so, games from this tournament should show up for you. Good Luck!

just to further that thought, what I meant for myself is that, as a Glob, I feel there are a few boards that its as important for me to keep up with, as it is to keep up with the games. You'll notice that I rarely play 1, 2 or 3 day games, because I know its difficult for me to keep up.

Stevie: Not all the time, by the time I read the 4 or 5 boards I try to keep up with... well, that can take a hour or so when you got 100 flame posts to wade through (per board, that is)

It must be nice to be able to play as long as you want per day. Maybe I should not even play any games since I work long days at 2 jobs and then because I like to have a clean house, spend another couple of hours trying to wash, cook & clean. I guess I am very selfish to want to play in a tournament that was set up for 1 week moves and then actually think I should take a week between moves.

and then Godforbid I get sick as I was for the last month. *shakes head in dismay*

http://brainking.com/game/Tournaments?trg=7518&trnst=0

This tournament is for players who are currently playing less than 60 games, and who PROMISE to make at least one move per day!!!

Subject: Re: People who sign up and don't play
MidnightMcMedic: I have already run three "invitation only" tournaments in three weeks - all of which have finished within a few days. It's a very satisfying way of playing a tournament. It would just be nice to be able to play other people, and when the tournament is advertisesd as "1-day per move", not have players with 500 or so open games join the tournament and use the "automatic vacation" feature when they don't, won't, or can't move once a day like everybody else!

Subject: Re: People who sign up and don't play
pgt: Maybe create a tournament and just invite people you know are not going on vacation or who are faster movers. It is just a thought since the other option is not available at this time.

Subject: People who sign up and don't play
There was a discussion some time ago about having a tournament option with no vacation days and no automatic vacations. Has there been any progress on making this an option? It would certainly eliminate a lot of the gripes here, and those of us who like to play a few fast games would not be frustrated with long tedious boring dull tournaments (especially hyperbackgammn!) which go on for weeks and weeks, when 90% of the games are finished in a couple of days.

Subject: Re: tounaments
MidnightMcMedic: What the problem is is that paid memebers enter too many tournaments, play as many games as they want, but DON'T play as many games as they have signed up for, thus frustrating both paid AND unpaid members!
