How does one set up a link to a tournament, please?

joshi tm: I agree; get rid of these old tournaments! No. 2 on the list has actually ended!

Pioneer54: Quite often, playing in tournaments, one meets players rated 400 points or more below your own raying. You may get 1 point for winning, with sometimes a loss of over 100 points for a loss!!
Swiss tournaments would, to a large extent, stop this happening. They combine the best of knock-outs and all-play-all tournaments.

Pioneer54: You've said it!! Mind you, I imagine it would be horribly difficult to program; fencer would be really stretched on this one!

Cubed Cloning how about trying the Cubed version of this new game?

Why is tyhis tournament showing on the list of Open tournaments, when both games have been finished?

and why is A dalšíííííí * still showing on Tournaments to sign up, when it has finished???????

Why is the Brain tournament, at the top of the list, still there? It should have been deleted on 8th April 2006.

All sections have their minimum number of players signed up; well done and thank you.
We'll just wait until 30 June to see if any more want to sign up.

Modified by tonyh (12. November 2005, 16:45:09)
If you reckon that a chess player is cheating (ie using a computer program), is there any way of avoiding that player in tournaments?

Sorry, typing error - but the percentages are still generally what I find! Another game where you can think for hours and come up with the wrong move; tablut.

Subject: Re: 141 games
I reckon that 80% of the time, you can play moves without thinking and another 17% neds a bit of thought (about 10 seconds worth). Gothic Chess is the killer; you can think for half-an-hour and still make the wrong move.

Artful - like $2 a month!! 50c a week! A pint of bitter costs £1.90 (or around $3.00 in USA currency). How pawns can live with the tournament restrictions is beyond me.

Zucan - The Mercenaries are on red alert!

Subject: Re: Well...
Zucan - you mean, run 4 separate tournaments for the 4 team members? Like you have all the first boards in one tourn, all the 2nd boards in another and so on?

Totally agree with dream; there is a Keryo Pente Discussion Board, where these missives will find a welcome home.

Would you be happier if IYT called their game Keryo13?

Subject: Re: Keryo Pente player 1 advantage
Vacation times, even during tournaments, are essential! This is one of the worst features at IYT, that they don't allow vacations for tournaments. Hence, the large number of 'forfeits'.

How about putting WINNER in red alongside the tournament and, say, FINALS in red? then we can gloat a bit.
Also, how avbout telling us all when someone has won a tournament (again, might boost your Brain Knight + membership).

Please do remember that a vital objective for Fencer is to make this site pay for itself.

I do wonder whether any of us are so mad keen to win a tournament. For me, it is a good way of getting more games started, without the hassle of sending out invites.

Subject: Re: Levels
If you remove Pawns who have paid to become Knights, then this might persuade them not to become knights!! But I guess this affects so few players that it hardly makes any difference which way you decide.

Shouldn't some tourneys have started by now, like Manicotti's Reversi 6x6 (entries finished 1st Feb)?
