Subject: Can someone please get me outta this tournament!
It is a backgammon championship tournament with a 21 day limit.
It started in July 2nd. almost 20 days ago.
I have one game with Stinger who has not made one move yet, and still has 26 days 10 hours before a time out!
How does a 21 day tournament turn into a 48 day tournament?
At this pace it will take 8 years for a 30 move game!!!!!
How realistic is it to play a tournament where one game can last 8 years?
I guess if you are young, and you make it to the third round, you can count on your competition to die for your win. Plus look at the potential for Fencer to gaurantee no one ever leaves :)
I know it doesnt matter to many, the slow pace, and I should simply not worry about it, and play when my turn comes around.
But this is silly to the extreme... What would a 30 day tournament be like?
please fencer, for my sanity, remove me from this tournament. Thank you very much!
