BerniceC: That's easy because Evásek announced that she is leaving BK, so he could deduct she won't play ponds anymore.

Temo: Re: NOT at all

Walter Montego: Every game is "flawed" in some way. You cannot find a perfect one. Btw, I don't think there is a significant flaw. Every aspect can be considered as a part of the strategy.

Temo: Re:

Pedro Martínez: Not legalized. But you cannot banish people only because it "looks like" cheating.

18. Majo 2005, 20:12:37

What bug?

Temo: Re: question

Nothingness: Sorry! My bad. Ponds are counted, of course.

Temo: Re: Dark Ponds

Mike UK: Only names and BKRs of running players are hidden. Points left and bids are visible, so are all information about fallen players.

BIG BAD WOLF: Yes.

9. Majo 2005, 15:15:08

I call you a pesimist.

The names of fallen players show up.

9. Majo 2005, 15:06:17

Temo: Re: Dark

rod03801: The names will be replaced by question marks even in the discussion.

2. Majo 2005, 21:36:22

I'll have a look at it.

tonyh: I see nothing "whacky". What do you mean?

2. Majo 2005, 09:03:55

Temo: Re: Re:

Hrqls: It's calculated only when the pond is finished :-)
Statistics - not yet.

2. Majo 2005, 08:55:28

Temo: Re: Re:

Hrqls: You cannot count it as "win" or "loss". The formula has some input parameters - your current BKR, average BKR of all opponents, current BKR of each opponent, number of "wins" [players with lower final order], number of "draws" [players on the same level as you], number of "losses" [players with higher final order]. It takes all of this, makes some creepy things with them and spits out the result as your new BKR :-)

1. Majo 2005, 19:13:42

Temo: Re:

rod03801: This one. Yes, the same is applied on normal games but in a simplified way.

1. Majo 2005, 17:54:59

Temo: Re: Re:

Cathy1: 16 players might be a little better because what really matters is the average BKR of all your opponents. But not only this, of course.

1. Majo 2005, 17:47:02

Temo: Re:

BIG BAD WOLF: You are guessing right.

1. Majo 2005, 17:24:08

Temo: Re: Re:

Czuch Chuckers: Not always, it depends on your opponents' BKR. Falling in the pond with low rated players is worse.

1. Majo 2005, 17:17:29

Not exactly. The formula is more complex in this case but the basic idea is the same.

1. Majo 2005, 08:03:05

Well, the ratings are based on final positions of the particular pond players. When you have the last round of a finished pond, consider players behind you as your wins, players on the same position as draws and the rest as your losses. And, of course, their current BKR is significant for the BKR result.

Temo: Re: winners

Hrqls: Me neither :-)

22. Aprilo 2005, 06:40:45

I will add it to Profiles as well.

21. Aprilo 2005, 21:01:09

Who wanted the winners?

Shortly, what is your request?

27. Marto 2005, 18:15:36

Temo: Re: Fencer

Czuch Chuckers: 6 players, not 3. Carry on.

Temo: Re: BKR

Mely: Nothing, as you can see.

27. Marto 2005, 17:04:56

Temo: Re: Fencer

Czuch Chuckers: Yes if you give me pond ID and player ID.

16. Marto 2005, 16:27:26

And the result is?

Complaining is useless. New server is needed.

15. Marto 2005, 20:45:20

Temo: Re: question

rabbitoid: Because the server was down for two hours, maybe more.

6. Februaro 2005, 23:30:03

What's the point of this endless discussion? I already have a rating system for pond games, it's just not activated yet. The goal is to keep the things easy and simple, which is the fact certain people still refuse to accept.

4. Februaro 2005, 19:55:39

I disagree.

Bry: I won't.

2. Februaro 2005, 15:32:08

Yes, Londo came with this proposal, I am aware of it. However, the only list of forbidden things can be found on the User Agreement page.

2. Februaro 2005, 15:09:31

Temo: Re:

Pedro Martínez: Not forbidden, only non-recommended. But there are situations which don't allow to leave some posts on boards, even if somebody already responded to them.
