Steve

Congratulations to all you water people. And, congratulations to cariad for winning her bout with our BB.

oh yeah, i knew there had to be a reason, but it is for a good cause. Even with them, nothing can really change the outcome in that section of the tournament.

Only because you lent your magic dice to Dolittle!

ROFL@cariad, hey you just beat me at Backgammon :o)

I bet you even managed to throw doubles in that MM.

Well done to beach, IMupChucKing & MadMonkey (oh, thats me lol) on creating a 3-way draw/win in the Madmonkeys 'Boat Battle' (4) (Battleboats Plus) Tournament.

I will sort out a new Boat tourny today as the other 2 are alomost finished :o)

I noticed that when playing a team tournament game, there is no "Move and go to the tournament" selection at the bottom of the drop-down list. Is there a reason for this?

Also, the team tournament games in the member drop-down-list (the one that contains all of our games) are not marked with the *s like the regular tournament games. I think they should at least be marked somehow even if different from the regular tournament games.

That was rather a short answer LMAO ummm keeping on topic...ummmm There is a link to the left for tournaments, sign up to play them LOL

yeah, Kevins on same team though, so that will negate Fencers fast games LOL

Should I join a Quick Player Club? :-D

You don't hang about do you Fencer? Two results already!

Thanks. The backgammon tourney is looking very close and hard-fought!

bumble: In such case both teams continue to the next round.

Fencer: In the event of teams being level on points and games won/lost, do both teams progress to the next round or does some other determining factor come into play?

Ohhhhhhh! Taking corners I see.

Win? I think not! ;)

Yeah, we need some of those on Power House as well, and we could use some help on Reversi 10 X 10, and Checkers. Any takers? Free pizza on request for membership. *a good bribe works from time to time*

The Sunshine club need a member for atomic chess team.

B-b-b-but if we all have our own fellowships, there won't be any teams.

the great thing is...if you UPGRADE to a brain rook...you can form your own fellowship,and start your own team! ;)

Yeah, that's rule number one. Then, you have to be a member of a fellowship, and a member of a team within that fellowship.

you must be paid member to join a team as they are integrated into fellowships.

Fencers undying reinforcement of his faith in our Stevie LOLOL

Please send me a message and let me know. Thank you.

I've always found 3 day limits to be good - which is why almost all of the "Fast Start" tournament (which I need to start some again), always have 3 day limit.

Plus as I can tell we may need 40 days to get together enough 10 player 6x6 teams, 40 days seems like a long time to wait. 20-30 days would probable be enough in my opinion.

Team Tournament names:

Crowded Gammon: "Don't stand so close to me!" Tournament

Gammon Race: "zoom zoom - wanna race gammon?"

Nackgammon: "Nammon Gammon"

Battleboats Plus: "Plus size Battle at sea."

All the above would have very good turn out - could easly make 6-8 player teams.

thats OK Redsales.. we've got our tank battle team!!! thanks anyway!

*editing to add Redsales IS on our team!

thanks :)

But at least its 3 day moves LOL

Because I was looking forward to a 6x6 tournie which had the likely hood of being a quick one LOL
Then the bombshell hits, not a lot of chance of getting that many players to join so may aswell give up on the idea of being in it with a team

BINGO! Stevie is the first one. Why did I KNOW that? :-D

come on Fencer.......10 players for the 6x6 tourny???? thats getting silly now

LMAO

2 days is fine, i was just bartering.

i like 2 days too, grenv, for the same reason! Internet can be spooty at times here in Korea. I've had a tech over at my crib thrice in 2 months.

Temo, Antje: sorry, harley and bobes got to me first. I *could* leave the tank battle team, but I onlly would if the Sunshine Club tank battle team had enough members and the other team didn't. I'm not good at tank anyway, i'd just be a body!

Problem with one day, even for us faster players, is time outs. I had a freak day last week and didnt access the web for over a day, and got timed out of 5 games in a 1 day tournament.

I mean, you can play 25 moves pergame per day, but if you miss one day, you are out.

How about 2 days then?

It would be nice to have some sort of overall game limit, or sometging of the like.....hopefully someday :)

I vote for 1 day. :)

I alreadyy mentioned 3 days would be better, so I agree

The first team tournament went off at 3 days per move. The new ones are all at 5 days per move. Why the change? It seemed like the participation in the first one was high. I havent heard anyone talking about a massive amount of time outs from any games. # days seems like a good middle of the road time limit that should work for everyone. Or maybe 5 days and deactivate the weekends? As it is, a 5 day tournament game can last 420 days for a 30 move game, plus vacation time, and holidays.

I think that team tournaments should be under 1 year in length, for the whole tournament, not 1.15 years+ just for one game. Our memberships are only good for a year, we should be able to play a team tournament, and have it finish within a year.

I vote for 3 days team tournaments, that is plenty of time....

Redsales, you can join our team Brains of space....we need a member for tank battles for sure.And maybe you should become a "Loop team" member later...

redsales-- we can use you over at the Sunshine Club :)

anyone fancy joining my team so i can join the amazons team tourny ,i just need one player . jasonsgamesroom

Hi, I'm looking to get on some teams for the team tourneys. Anyone need a player?

LOL...you go Kevin!....aren't you and KevJon neck and neck??? Can't wait to see who will win. :ř)

We're moving, we're moving... :-)

The end is in sight for the end of the first part...down to 2 players and their last moves...Come on Kevin and KevJon...you can do it....gooooooo team!!! Rah-Rah sis boom bah....
Is there going to be another prize like in the first heap when the winners of their section got a knight membership??

Plus this tournament is a GREAT way to practice for the 2 new team tournament that will start in about a month.
