Need more participants for the Beginners Tablut #3, due to start on Monday! My BKR has risen above 1500, although I registered when it was much lower. As the system will not automatically kick me I think it only fair that I remove myself - I will do this if more than the minimum people are registered.
O čem je toďten plk: What's A Raingutter Regatta???
I'm glad you asked A Raingutter Regatta is a boat race using small hand-built boats with sails. The boats are placed in a raingutter and the competitors act as the wind source by blowing the boat from one end of the gutter to the other Here are some real life pictures of a Raingutter Regatta event.
The Campfire, a brand new fellowship, is holding it's first tournament, Raingutter Regatta #1. Since it's difficult to get us all together on such short notice (much less taking time to build all those little boats), we are simply including all BrainKing naval tactics games in our tournament. So if you like playing Battleboats, Dark Battle Boats, or Battle Boats Plus, please stop by The Campfire and sign up!
ClayNashvilleTn: not impossible when you are a new player at the game on here .. i somehow won my first 4 games of swap five in line .. placing me at #1 ... i could have joined a low level tournament .. then play my first 4 games .. and be way out of limit
(dont worry i am down to earth again i lost my other 2 games :))
i think the hitmans main point was that unrated people maybe signing up and then before the tournaments starts they might have won all four games and have a very high rating ...because the system will not then boot them out for being over the limit
yes it does .. but i was around 2100 at that time ... so as soon as i was above 2100 i signed up ... i would finish some more games before the tournament started .. and drop below 2100
so i would be below the minimum when the tournament started
hi all. me also i signed up for a game with max-bkr. the problem were that during the tournament i got 200 points over the BKR-maximum. so........ :-))))
THE HIT MAN: the tournaments starting time arent checcked every minute, so it can show minus a couple of minutes before it starts .. i think this wont be longer than 10 minutes though (i think the starting times are checked every 10 minutes)
Sorry.But in my Tournaments if you don;t enter in 10 games or more you are going to be removed.Because they are most games WON TOURNAMENTS with prizes.Hopefully this is going to resolve the problems.Due to all BKR ratings
Sence I have had tournaments, I:ve been watching them.I"ve seen ppl sigh in when there is minus time showing left on them.That is going to be very hard for me to control my next tournament.
furbster: I agree, the system should not let you sign up if you are over 1500 (or whatever the limit is) and it should check again when it starts. This should be done automatically.
BIG BAD WOLF: I like that way of handling it. If a player is normally just under 1500 and happens to win three games in a row right before the tournament, an automatic system would knock him out even though he may be back under 1500 after three more games.
I know for any of my "tournament for dummies" for players rated 1500 or below, about a day or so before the tournament starts, I actually go through manually and kick out anyone who is way above 1500. (If someone now has 1525 or something close I usually let them stay - but if it's like 1700, then they are gone.)
But even then, some are unrated and even within hours of it starting they can shot from unrated to 2100.
THE HIT MAN: If a tournament is set at say 1500BKR and below to sign up, a player can only sign up who is 1500 and below. However if that tournament starts weeks later, and that player has moved to 2000, they will still be included. It's up to the creator of the tournament to remove anyone from the tournament before it starts if they are over 1500.
In addition, if you let unrated players sign up, after 4 completed games they may also be over 1500 BKR.
If the rounds at IYT go for a bit, and someone asks the owner there to end the tournament instead of starting new rounds, it is done. Otherwise, the computer there will continue to make new rounds forever.
Is it just me, or in the hyper team tourney currently running, do the games in which the two fellowships that have been deleted, seem to not be continuing?
