O čem je toďten plk: The tournament between the sites
Hello. I propose to arrange a chess tournament in the dark chess between the sites, if there is a desire to write to me can discuss this issue, just leave the site address - http://chess.com.ua - register see play chess in the dark chess .... personally appeal to players: Create a team site from 20 or 30 people and spend a grand tournament - http://brainking.kom against http://chess.com.ua ..... waiting for your answers, suggestions ....

Resher: No, zetes is not the problem. Harassed (a.k.a. WakeUpPeople) simply decided not to move in that tournament, very shortly after it had started. The prize from the tourney even had to be moved to another one because of him and his mental anomaly.

Pedro Martínez: I think it's zetes that's the problem - last move in any game was back in February, so it looks like they've left the site. So the others players might have decided there's no point continuing (wouldn't be my logic though).

Stingette: yes i don't think tournaments should be allowed to have no time limits it's stupid especially when you get idiots which are ruining it for everyone else
We are so excited to have such a great Dice Chess Team Good luck my friends
We would like to start a few other game teams so please feel free to join any games that may interest you. As we receive enough members for a team, each team will be entered in challenges.
Clandestine 1: Apparently I joined two (unfinished) tournaments (when I had Brain Rook status), and they both started more than three years ago. I think I made the last move in the Goodfoods one about three months ago. Ok, I know the rules. I am happy to buy a Brain Rook membership again when there is a sensible autopass system introduced for backgammon. If that had been the case for these stalled tournaments, maybe they would have finished already. Never mind, I can find other backgammon sites, It's just a shame that tournaments can run for five years withn no apparent progress. I can't think who actually enjoys them.
pgt: Actually the tournament in question is approaching its 5 yr anniversary due to handful of players who like to play at a snail's pace. After 5 yrs of play, we're still in the first round! - check it out LUCKY THIRTEEN Wait until the second round, most of the games will be won by default due to the amount of players that advanced by winning their round and now they do not play here anymore. The tournament started out exciting, but lost its mojo around 2006 sometime.
pgt: I think you will have to wait for the next round to start since you are going to win your section. then you can resign your games and ask fencer to release you
I signed up for a tournament in February 2006 (when I was a Brain Rook) and it is still running - though my section finished about two years ago - I have not made a move in this tournament for two years!
Is there some way to default and remove myself from this tournament so I can sign up for some monthly fast-paced tournaments? (I am getting older, and at the pace this tournament is running, I'm quite likely not to be alive when it ends.)
coan.net: That is the reason i posted it here, to try and get more people involved. In fact i may have a think about posting Team Tournaments (maybe the next 1 or 2) in the section above. That can't hurt and may help.
Hopefully Fencer will build in BK 3.0 the possibility of a Fellowship entering more than one Team in future, that would create some great fun and rivalry even within a Fellowship
MadMonkey: I wasn't trying to presume anything - you had asked where all the players were, and since that game is not a very popular game - I was just pointing out where 6 more players are at.
Hopefully there will be enough teams (4) to start the team tournament - always hate to see when not enough teams sign up for a team tournament.
coan.net: You are presuming these players wish to play for another Fellowship of course ??
I for one do not, but i have always said that those who do not get in a Team are free to play for anyone they wish, it is there choice. In fact 2 of the players left the Turkish Fellowship Team to play in the Madhouse one.
The Fellowships you mention have ample players in them to form Teams.
It seems crazy we need 6 players to play in a Turkish Checkers Tournament, yet only 5 to play in the Plakoto one
MadMonkey: There are 4 more players in the Madhouse team not playing in the tournament - should see about getting them over in another fellowship's team to help complete some other teams.
A few fellowships close to having 6 players:
Open teams to join: Republic of Uganda (5), The Untouchables (5), ۞ CħεcҜεrs' Aғίcίaηadøs ۞ (4)
... There are also 2 others on the Společenství přátel team which did not make it into the other signed up team, maybe see if they wanted to play for another team would be good also?
I love Team Tournaments, and i take pride in some great Teams we have in the Madhouse and we enter virtually EVERY Team Tournament, whether we stand a chance or not. We did not even have a Turkish Checkers Team until the Tournament was released. I had never taken an interest in the game until then, so with Tutagil's help i tried to learn it.
I am in lots of Fellowships and play in there Tournaments, BUT myself, i rarely play for any other Fellowships in Teams.
MadMonkey: I did bother to look. I find it funny for someone wondering “where are all the Checkers players” not to play in the tournament himself. Or are you a member of only one fellowship?
I created a free entry tourney to win brains, but how do I submit the prize? It says something like: tournament won't start as prize isn't provided yet?
Pedro Martínez: yeah, there are rather a few on the Tournaments page (got to by clicking "Tournaments" in the sidebar, of course) in which the first prize is equal to or less than the buy-in.
