BrainKing - Klobe na mloveni (Tournaments)

By definition (must play at least ten different games), pawns are excluded. Pawns are only allowed one tournament game at a time (can't play in two tournaments or even two different games within the same tournament). If you want to have an all rooks tourney, that's fine. Getting DQ'd by a rule that was added after I had successfully entered is pretty bush league, though.

Well - She did it. She won at least one of my tournaments. Awesome job Partica on winning the tourny and only losing one game total in the final round.

Check it out BK - Congrats to Partica for winning...

that's what I ment. pawns can only enter one tournament at a time and only play one kind of game.

O čem je toďten plk: Re:

Backoff: I thought Knights were allowed one tournament per game type and that Pawns were allowed only one single tournament at a time.

Backoff

pawns were allowed. but you can only play in one tournament game type (i.e. chess, backgammon).

O čem je toďten plk: Beginners Tablut

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.

Best of luck!

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 :))

28. dobna 2005, 13:58:13

Jason

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

O čem je toďten plk: Re:

Hrqls: I kept reading all the post and couldn't figure out what all the beef was about.

28. dobna 2005, 13:46:52

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

i think thats what the hitman talks about ?

28. dobna 2005, 13:40:02

O čem je toďten plk: Re: bkr minimum

O čem je toďten plk: Re:

furbster: i thought tournaments already kicked players out who are too high ?

i couldnt join some tournaments because my bkr was either too high or too low

i am not sure though if thats just at the moment when i sign up .. or also when the tournament actually starts

what happens if a players raises above (or drops below) the set bkr limits during the tournament ? should the player be removed as well ? ;)

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)

O čem je toďten plk: Re:

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.

O čem je toďten plk: Re:

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.

yeh i dont know if it'd be possible, but what about autokicking people out of tourneys who are to high at sign ups? obviosuly not teh unrated players

27. dobna 2005, 23:30:36

Bry

O čem je toďten plk: Re: 1

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.

I think that explains it.
