I was looking through the team tournaments, and I seen 3 tournaments which will not have enough teams to start.
Those tournaments of less-popular games are:
Gothic Chess
Cylinder Chess
Parachute Checkers
If you are able to play in team tournaments, and any of those games look interesting to you - Check with your fellowships to teams to join, or join a new fellowship looking for team members.
Here are a few fellowships that I know of that are looking for players for these tournaments:
HOME Fellowship - I know looking for both Cylinder Chess & Gothic Chess
The Zoo - Also looking for players for all 3 games.
If other fellowship are looking, please let us know. If you are a player, feel free to join. Hopefully we can get enough teams to start these tournaments!
Come on Ug....RU flurting with me again? :)
I miss our debates. No, really...
Sorry you had to agree with me.
I must have been bored, to be so repetative.
I doubt "most" people are "tired of listening to steve whine"... You always do that. You feel a certain way, and try to make it sound like a majority feels the same, even though you have no idea, LJ... There is NO reason for Stevie to be banned! (not this time anyways.. LOL!) :-P
Well, if you are using auto-vacation and you end up not having to go, none of your games should "time out", and therefore no vacation days should be used.
I modified it to add flaming LMAO
I couldnt give two hoots if you are getting tired of me whinging. The only problem i have is I say what others think and dont say. So looks like its just me. But it isnt. Whereas the likes of you, you say what you think the boss man wants you to say. cant get much lower can you
Once more LJ shows his true self. nose covered in the brown stuff etc. Whats wrong?? you want rid of someone who shows you for what you are???
I see you signed on with both accounts LJ you should shut up and play both sets of games. ooopps sorry, you said its your wife momentarily didnt you before deleting the commenet LOL I guess your post below wont stay long either.
It is just not a right attitude. Once there is a feature which people do find useful from time to time, it should not be abolished just because some others abuse it. Such an attitude would lead, then, to a "tyranny of the abusers", because BK would be further developed with respect to preventing these from acting abusively and not with respect to helping us all to have a good gameplay.
I dont think it is that tough to see... If you are away from the site, automatic vacation days to prevent time out is fine. there should be no limit to it, except for the amount of vacation time you have left. If you have logged into the site within 24 hours (or some specific amount of time) of a game being timed out, the Automatic vacation should not be turned on for you.
I think we all agree, it should not be used to add time to a game when a person is available to make a move.
I agree that auto vacation should not be allowed to be used on games if a person has signed into the account at any period , and even if it does kick in a maximum limit of 2 or 3 days should be allowed .
Thanks Loup :o)
The diference is BBW to set it manually means they have to go out of their way to do it.
Whereas its easy to sit back and let an auto thing kick in
Most of the time Stevie and I don't see things the same way. But on this auto vacation crap. I do have to say Stevie is saying most everything I think is right on it.
So on the 1 or 2 day tourney, if a person has not takin 1 vacation day all year they could hold a tourney to make it last for 1 turn over a month. Yes as it is now that the way the rules have it but is it really being a true sport about the game? ok puff back to my corner I pop.
:o{P
especially annoying when its against a pawn :( It would only need 1 player to do this and hold up a tournament we are in for ex. Or 20 players to do it and we have no games to play
One point not yet mentioned (I think) is that these people are not away with an emergency, they are here...
I like auto vacations too, for emergency use. But maybe it could be set to only work if a player is not on the site? If they are here and purposly not playing games that are due to time out, the auto vacation should not be kicked in. Personally, I dont think any vacation days should be valid if the person is on site. If you can accept a 5 day limit game, and you are able to get on site, you should have to play your games at that limit, period.
I've never said I have a great memory! Feature requests is just that. People suggest things, Fencer & Liquid add what they like. I don't remember many objections if this was mentioned at features? I could be wrong though so don't jump on me for that one! I think most people would be glad of this if they ever needed to fall back on auto-vation. As was said earlier, for the majority its a great addition. Of course there are always a few who will abuse it, as with anything. But overall, it will benefit most people.
Because, Stevie, even people who want to abuse the auto-vaction can only do it 30 times! And then they lose all their vacation days, and they can't avoid timing out, and if they want to go away they won't be able to set any more days.
(hide) If you click on a person's name and then click Finished games you will have a list of games that have been completed, then click on the name of the game to get a summary of all of these games, then click on the name of the game again and you will have a game to view and analyze.
