Since I am new here I have questions. I am reading there will be limits on numbers of fellowships. Since I already have several offers to join, then I would like to know if 2 is going to be the number, & are you limited to playing say chess to only 1 fellowship in either tournmt's to 1 club or both (which means possible clashes/confliction of interests when clubs play against eachother & a member belongs to both). Thanks.

I know that as a knight member, you will be limited on the number of tournaments you are allowed to play in. You can play chess in as many fellowship tournies as you have room for. I think thats how it goes anyways :)

Yes, and you can join as many fellowships as you want. (The limit on fellowships, is that Fencer doesn't want anyone to have more than a couple fellowships that they run).
And to clarify, you can only be on one team of any specific game. If you are on the chess team of fellowship "A", you can't join the chess team of fellowship "B". but you can certainly join the Gothic Chess team of fellowship "B".

Rooks would be limited to being Big boss of a maximum of 2 fellowships, so you have no worries, join as many as you like and play as much as you like upto your knight limits :o)

Sir! Sir! Mr Fencer sir! Someone's hacked into Stevie's account and they're being helpful. They're ruining Stevie's reputation. Tell them off, sir! Go on, sir! Make them go away! They're frightening me.

LMAO@goldie ;o)

rofl!
Wasn't Goldie the Blue Peter dog? Hmmm....

ummmm yep it was LOL

ok...I'll ask.
Who is "Blue Peter"?

its a kiddies programme in UK, dunno if its still going, but I used to watch as littl'en and so did my son :o)

LOL:) ok

... But the limitation of 2 fellowships for the rooks is not currently in place, correct? Just something talked about.

Stevie number of fellowships 9. September 2004, 12:01:59
This was going to be limited for each member wasnt it?
Is that still going to happen?
We were told to amalgamate fellowships because by BK2, you didnt want to see lots of members with fellowships for single or two games etc.

This is not the case, especially as the team tournies have started now, I amalgamated a few fellowships to make one that covers a number of games, and others are opening new ones up

Maybe it needs clarifying wether you want it limited still or not Fencer?

It's not in place yet but will be. Some day.

I have a fellowship of 80 members and still can't get any teams up :( Please anyone interested in playing in the team tournaments for backgammon race and froglet feel free to join Crissie's Clubhouse and sign up! :o)

is now open to our czech speaking friends:) Stop in,relax,say"Ahoj!!!"

Um, if they're Czech-speaking only, bwild, they won't have a clue what you're talking about!
Wouldn't it be better on the Czech language DB? :)

good point red :o)))

Maybe the fellowships should start posted how many players each need to enter the next round of team tournament - since lets say 2 different fellowships have 1/2 a team, and we can not find anyone else to join - they could join one of the fellowships as 1 team so everyone gets to play.

While reading messages through the fellowships, I seen that there were a few that needed players. Here are a couple I'm in that I know need players:

Pente - Polygonal alien killers Fellowship - Need at least 3 more players

Reversi 8x8 - Stevies Checkered Reversed Lines(SCRL) Fellowship - Needs at least 2 more players

Other fellowships - please post what you still need and maybe we can find players without teams, or combine a couple of teams so everyone who wants to play can play!

Brains of Space need 2 more Froglet players :-)

HOME needs players for froglet, pente and reversi 8x8.

I'll play Backgammon Race in the tournament if anybody needs another player

same goes for froglet.

I wanna play reversi 8x8...

The HOME froglet team still needs one more player. Who would like to fill that spot?

Me! Me! Me!

Okay, I lied.

I'd hold him to that, Backoff! NOT a floosie, delete the bit where he says he lied?! LOL! I'll make it worth your while! :oD

lol. grab him by the feet, we'll make him play!!!

I just see you are in the quick players club..
What the hell are you doing in there?? LMAO

is that something like an oxymoron? ;)

nah, me just a moron LOL

No, I meant Kevin in a fast players club. :) That's an OxyMoron!

New Fellowship ~ I started it yesterday, anyone who wants to join will be welcome, and we are looking for people who want to sign up in our teams:
Checkers, Froglet, Line 4, Pente, Backgammon Race, and Chess.

Nice one, Nirvana!
It's coming to the time where teams are being picked and people that wanted to play are being left out - often players that were the first to sign for the team or unrated players.

Good for you!

Pawns : I know of at least 2 who would like to be able to play in the tournaments, one expert at checkers, can pawns play in tournaments, and can they join fellowships?

Re pawns: No and no. They have to be members.

"you are a member" ;oÞ LMAO

On the subject of unrated players or those with low ratings ~ I recently picked up an open game with another player and lost, but don't mind doing that as fun comes first with me. When I offerd a return game I was declined because my ratings aren't high enough!! I think that stinks. It isn't the first time I have come across this, and it probably won't be the last. When playing these games cease to be fun I will stop playing them.
As far as tournaments on Nooks and Crannies go ~ ratings/rankings are irrelevant. FUN comes first. So anyone who wants to sign up, please feel free to do so.

I have just started a fellowship this morning & to all who may want to join, feel free. Only 2 things that I request is always to have FUN & absolutely NO fighting (unless it is cyber food throwing then that's ok)

That has happened to me sometimes as well. I too decline a return game only after I have played them at least 4 times

I have been on a couple of teams now, neither which has or had enough players for the team tourney. Maybe we could combine a couple of teams or something? I am currently in the scrl/ team, anyone out here that wants in the reversi tournament, lets get together and make sure we all can get in....

I just left that team because my best player got poached and no-one was joining it :o(

Now there's a thought...transfer fees!

I noticed a team that had 3 or 4 Big Bosses on it. I think all BBs should have to play on their own fellowship teams or post a team from their fellowship before they can join another team.

I agree with that

to make that link

<a" href=/game/ShowFellowship?fid=255>Here ya go</"a>
just remove the "

I don't get the problem with a big boss being on another fellowship's team... I am playing on power house's reversi 6x6 team because we could never get 10 players from Club WebTV. (I have to beg and plead to get half that number, LOL!)

I don't see what would be wrong with that...

It would be easier alll around if tournies were kept down to 4 or 5 members per team anyways Rod LOL
