Subject: HELP!!!!!!
I've just signed up to my first tournament. Being somewhat slow on the uptake, I assumed that I had signed up for Chess....imagine my surprise when confronted with 12 boards, complete with different coloured frogs!! I've no idea what to do!!!!! Should I bulk resign? Your comments and suggestions are welcomed.....but please don't be too hard on me!!!

i vote for starting options as well

lets suppose you start with 10 points for everyone .. then more than 1 player will bet 1 .. which causes a tied bet .. even a tied lowest bet .. which causes more than 1 player to fall into the pond

of course 10 points is a bit extreme, but the same can happen when you start (for example) with 100 points .. especially after a few rounds the lwoer players dont have much choices anymore and there will be some tied lowest bets causing more people to drop in 1 round

I'd like to see the starting number and the bonus both be selectable at the start of the run.

10. January 2005, 21:19:46
grenv 
that's the bit i don't understand. I guess less granularity would mean more likelyhood of tied bets.

10. January 2005, 20:07:48
Hrqls 
and people would be more likely to bet lower .. so more than 1 player can fall in the pond per round

what's the difference between 20000 and 1000 starting number in poinds? There is no strategic difference, just fewer numbers to choose from. The 500 bonus i guess would be more important?

Make sure you bring your trunks. We'll start when we hit 100 people. It should be a great time. Who's bringing the beer?

p.s. thanks for the cheque. It'll be banked as soon as received....

yes, one move so far. someone didnt post at all, so fell in, Rose posted 333 and fell in (even after a reminder message!!) - although she did apologise and she got what she deserved...

Will be intersting now, as most people have quite a lot less than 1000 points remaining.....

I've asked Fencer if we could have an option of a starting number of points when we create which would be useful to tailor it however you want without having to rely on everyone remembering to post 19,000+.

MM sorry to u and every1 on this site. Guess I'm wrong again but what else is knew. It had to do with a tournament so I thought this was the right board to put it on. And know it was not an attack on u. All I was tring to say was it is not a TRUE top 16 tourney. Doris and I have already talked and she thought I was mad at her about this, I told her no. And if I remember right told her sorry too. Now that the tourney has started it's over for me talking about it. TYVM all for letting me say my pease.

mrloupcity: I dont feel like repeating our PM discussion on a public board, so I suggest you...
1. cool down.
2. read tournament description. It says both
a) ratings are considered at the time of the beginning of the tournament
b) if you are invited and want to play, you have to sign immediately or your place is taken by a sub
3. check BKR history for Doris
4. reread your posts (both private and on this board)
5. stop attacking me and consider deleting your post

Subject: Re: how players get placed in groups ?
eagle eye: The smallest section that will be created is 3. The biggest I think is 8.

So if the max per section is 5, and 15 sign up - 3 sections of 5 will be created. If 16 would sign up, then 4 sections of 4 players would be created.

You can kind-of figure out who will be in your section.

Highest rank player will be in section #1.
2nd highest rank: section #2
3rd highest rank: section #3
4th highest rank: section #3
5th highest rank: section #2
6th highest rank: section #1
7th highest rank: section #1
8th highest rank: section #2
.. and so on. (At least that is how I think it works!)

Is not a true top 16 race without #11 in it. So guess every1 have fun. Cause as Jelly has told me in PM that will not remove any1 signed up for it. But doris with a 1475 rating get to play. I know Jelly that u sent me an invite but it was way before tourney to start and y I did not join then cause wanted to make sure I was still in top 16 before it starts.

Subject: how players get placed in groups ?
if Maximum number of players per section is 5 and total players signed is 15, how players get placed in the groups? Is there any rule?
Is there way to know who will be in your group?

SORRY - I messed up the last tournament, did not set the correct settings, so I had to remove that one and start up this new one. So if you are one of the few that signed up for the previous tournament, PLEASE go and sign up again. Sorry for the trouble.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Starting Feb 2nd (Groundhog Day!), is the popular "All games for dummies" tournament!
  • All games are here!
  • All games for players rated UNDER 1500
  • Unrated also can join (but don't join if you are an expert at the game)
  • GREAT way to learn a new game
  • GREAT way to play a game without being "killed" by high ranked experts
  • NOTE #1: Since ratings do change before the tournament starts, I will remove anyone who is way over the 1500 limit
  • NOTE #2: Pawns & Knights need 5 free game slots for each game
  • S I G N - U P - H E R E !
  • ... and as always, have fun!

Subject: Answers to queries
Remove a fellowship? OK, I guess that would explain that. Why they'd do that must be a story in itself.

A bug in the switch over, eh? Perhaps the year 2K+5 virus has popped up? If that's the case, I'm sure that it's being worked on.

Thank you for the updates Skyking and MidnightMcMedic.
