Asunto: Re: how players get placed in groups ?

eagle eye: The smallest section that will be created is 3. The biggest I think is 8.

So if the max per section is 5, and 15 sign up - 3 sections of 5 will be created. If 16 would sign up, then 4 sections of 4 players would be created.

You can kind-of figure out who will be in your section.

Highest rank player will be in section #1.
2nd highest rank: section #2
3rd highest rank: section #3
4th highest rank: section #3
5th highest rank: section #2
6th highest rank: section #1
7th highest rank: section #1
8th highest rank: section #2
.. and so on. (At least that is how I think it works!)

Asunto: TOP 16 Race

Is not a true top 16 race without #11 in it. So guess every1 have fun. Cause as Jelly has told me in PM that will not remove any1 signed up for it. But doris with a 1475 rating get to play. I know Jelly that u sent me an invite but it was way before tourney to start and y I did not join then cause wanted to make sure I was still in top 16 before it starts.

Asunto: how players get placed in groups ?

if Maximum number of players per section is 5 and total players signed is 15, how players get placed in the groups? Is there any rule?
Is there way to know who will be in your group?

Asunto: Groundhog Day Dummies #7

SORRY - I messed up the last tournament, did not set the correct settings, so I had to remove that one and start up this new one. So if you are one of the few that signed up for the previous tournament, PLEASE go and sign up again. Sorry for the trouble.

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

Starting Feb 2nd (Groundhog Day!), is the popular "All games for dummies" tournament!

All games are here!
All games for players rated UNDER 1500
Unrated also can join (but don't join if you are an expert at the game)
GREAT way to learn a new game
GREAT way to play a game without being "killed" by high ranked experts
NOTE #1: Since ratings do change before the tournament starts, I will remove anyone who is way over the 1500 limit
NOTE #2: Pawns & Knights need 5 free game slots for each game
S I G N - U P - H E R E !
... and as always, have fun!

Asunto: Answers to queries

Remove a fellowship? OK, I guess that would explain that. Why they'd do that must be a story in itself.

A bug in the switch over, eh? Perhaps the year 2K+5 virus has popped up? If that's the case, I'm sure that it's being worked on.

Thank you for the updates Skyking and MidnightMcMedic.

Team7 I think was the Red Squarrel Team which the Fellowship was removed from site by Big Boss and Fencer

I have a couple of questions concerning this tournament.
1) What happened to team #7?
2) What happened to the statistics page of individual players?

It's your tourny, do what you would like, if you are worried about their feelings, you could pm them and explain

31. Diciembre 2004, 02:04:01

Jason

if you stated at the time that you created the tourney that there was a limit of 2000 bkr then you have the right to remove any players over the limit .

Don't bother, Bernice. OldDear has been booted.

Im going to ask another question that will upset OldDear again but then who cares

If someone has surpassed the 2000max that I stipulate for a tourney may i remove that person or ask that they remove themselves. I know it isnt their fault that they have won the last 5 games they have played therefore greatly improving their score, but there was a reason for the 2000...can anyone advise me what would be the correct thing to do? I dont want to upset this person unduly :(
