Marshmud: Go for it. Backgammon, 9point cube, 3 days per move, no days off. I will sponsor a 1 year Brainrook membership to the winner. 
Also, 20 players per section (or whatever the max is) so the tournament moves along quickly.

My thoughts are a tournament Separate from the tournaments that Ian just created. 
9 point doubling cube, 5 man team tournament. 3 days per move, with no days off.
My question would be more about if Fencer would be willing and able to divide the prizes for the winning team. 

I posted this to the BK chat board,  but more appropriate to discuss here.

_Road Runner___:i’ll play, for as long as I’m alive or this site exists! I believe I hold the record for the longest playing tournament win, taking over 13 years to complete. The winner of this tournament might very well beat my BK record. 
We only need about 15 more to launch this tourney. Who thinks they have the stamina to win!

IDamian: you can set your filter to just look for specific tournaments. IE, set filter to show all “chess tournaments” and then all tournaments that have chess as an option will be shown.

MadMonkey: funny how we learn of these things. I’ve been here since the starting year of BK and never knew about this loophole. I too heard about brains being scammed but never knew how (or even why). Like Carpe, I’m signed up and playing in one of those tournaments and also don’t have any “Brains”. 
I feel like there should be a scarecrow reference from the Wizard of OZ on that last sentence.

Aganju: but the tourney won’t start until there are 128 players. I don’t know if there are still 128 active players here, everyone will need to sign up to get this one going.

Marshmud: because by the time you get to the end everyone else will have quit or died.  JK
If this tourney play out (which is a huge accomplishment if it does) it will likely only take about 5 years to compete. I won a 13 month brainrook membership in a tournament that lasted just over 13 years. I still think that’s got to be some kind of record.

Hello BK players, I have not had any response from Fencer to pay for the prize tournaments I created or the prize tournaments that Marshmud and I were going to create. I have deleted the pawn tournament as there was no interest. I kept the Prize tournament for members as I’m hoping that Fencer will get back to me before Christmas. If not, I will also have to delete that tournament as it will not be able to start until the money is paid.  
Sorry folks

Likely in a couple days. But if You've been around BK then you know I’ve done quite a few of these prize tourneys and have always paid up the prizes. 
And we’re actually working on one more ;)

Frog Finder (ouna vs. Clandestine 1)



I’m not sure if I’m missing something here, but I’m up on my opponent 20-14 with each of us having one frog left. He guesses and scores 7 points for the win? I thought it was only 5 points per frog. Am I missing something or is this a little buggy?

Subject: Team tournaments
Just a suggestion here, but I’m thinking all team tournaments should be made with the parameters of 4 persons per team. As it stands now, we’re having a hard time finding 5 players per team. So until things pick up (if they pick up), I would suggest keeping the limit set to 4 people per team.

Tournament creation based on membership status but a sensible limit as to how many tournaments one can create. Active tournaments should not count in the total tho as I can foresee some slow pokes tying everything up.

Subject: Cloning backgammon team tournament
I think that if further team tournaments are created, then we need to reduce the number of players required. 8 players per team for Cloning Gammon will never happen. 6 would be difficult, 5 is more doable for Fellowships.

We need a player to play for the Untouchables in the upcoming team tournament for Logic. If someone wants to join our fellowship and play, we can get the tournament started.

I think I too should live long enough to see the end of these tournaments, if this site still exists.

Subject: Team Tournament




With Fencer's generosity of giving out free memberships, I have decided to try something different.... So, I bought another year's membership and this time the free memberships are going to go towards a team tournament.

With Fencer's help we have created the first prize Team Tournament

Gammon Random Games

All are welcome to join (as long as you belong to a fellowship). The 6 lucky participants will battle for a 3 month Brain Rook membership. I chose gammon games as it should even the odds a little and balance the playing fields.
