Pedro Martínez: And you point is......??? I never claim to be fast and I try join tournament with long limits. But I'm glad you felt like taking the time to research this fact..... even though for anyone smart, I mention right in my profile that I'm not a quick mover so what you are saying is nothing new... but I hope you feel beter for pointing out what is already in my profile...... Something that I already admit openly in my profile for the whole site to read. I'm sure you have helped every single person on this site without a mouse who is unable to click on my name and read my profile on their own. I'm sure they will thank you.

Modificado por coan.net (2. Septiembre 2005, 00:13:19)

I have 2 tournaments that is set to start later this month.

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

►►►►► Happy 3rd Birthday BrainKing ◄◄◄◄◄ - This is set to start on September 26 - which just happens to be pretty close to BrainKing's 3rd Birthday. All Games. Would be cool if we could get enough players to play in each game type! (That would be at least 4 for each game type)

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

►ALL games for dummies (under 1500 & unrated) #11◄ - Set to start on September 30th, this is the 11th "Dummies" tournament.

This tournament is for players rated BELOW 1500, or unrated - so it give a good chance for players to try new games.... without being "killed" by expert players.

Asunto: Tournaments that are "Waiting"

I have a question: there is this tourney where the move-limit is one hour and is in the "waiting" status. can anybody help me in telling me when it is going to start? (coz I'd hate to go away from the pc for over an hour and thus miss it!) - thanks for the help, it is the tourney created by qusar in backgammon variations!

28. Agosto 2005, 18:47:01

we need only one more!!

28. Agosto 2005, 17:41:04

The Sunshine Club needs 2 players yet for the Backgammon team tournament. If youre already on a team and wont be playing, we'd be happy to have you. I just like to play, I dont need to play to win, because this game has a strong luck factor, and even the lowest ranked team can win!!

so, even if you have a low BKR and your 'team' isnt using you, and you want to play, I have room for you!! lets have fun!

Are there any fellowships that needs another backgammon player in the tournament. I belong to 2 and one only took the top players (which I have a high rating - just not the top 8) and the other one has so many you don't get a chance to play in it. I would love to play in this tournament, so if anyone needs somebody that is definatley playing in it, let me know and I will join your fellowship. My rating is 2073. Thanks

furbster & Rose I thought at 62 years of age I was pretty wise. "NOT" I have learned sooooo much being a member of BK in dealing with people when you have multiple goals.

Treating people as you would want to be treated is something I have had pounded into me since I was a teenager.hmmmmmmmmmm It still holds water and I am sticking with it, even if we only finish second in this tourney.

27. Agosto 2005, 14:51:06

I think it's important to decide fast, for the other players know where they are and are able to find another team, what is unlikely if these are last-minute changes.

27. Agosto 2005, 14:49:14

Rose

Asunto: Re:

ClayNashvilleTn: What I have done is ask all players in the team either in a message or in the FS who really wants to play and are there some who dont mind stepping down to higher rated players. It is only fair to ask them all. Most folks want to play for the fun of it not the high ratings and they should be allowed to stay in if they want to be in it. I have had my feelings hurt by being 'dumped' off a tourney for a higher rated player only because no one approached me about it first. If someone has said hey do you mind stepping aside to let so an so who is 400 pts higher than you then I would have gladly said sure if it gives the team a better chance.
