I've created a few of the "Fast Start - First 5" of the Massacre Chess game - so want to start some games quickly - go and sign up. Once 5 sign up for each tournament, they will start.
Gerry and Martes: Here's how I roll with this one. If you don't like the decision of a mod on this board, go to the mod. Discuss it on the board again and you'll be given a 24 hour hide. Do it after that and it will be longer. Continue and you will be banned from posting on this board.
Fonts: I personally don't like sloppy posts. This board is here for a reason. Huge fonts are obnoxious and if everybody used them, people certainly would complain. However, an occasional large font is fine if not over used. General announcements should be done in respectable formats and respectable fonts. Everybody else does it this way.
When a person is warned privately, and they bring that discussion public, it isn't a very wise thing to do. Read the user agreement again and you will discover why this is a bad strategy on your part.
As for Frans large font posts: His formatting is good. And his tourney is a special one. It was decided to allow it for that reason. However, if that becomes an issue, I will modify all future large font announcements.
It's simple really: See what others are doing, and do what they do.
I've just created a tournament with some of my favourite games randomly chosen. Winner of the tournament will get 6 months rook membership. Feel free to join and good luck in the tournament :)

I know i can create tourneys myself, and i did create one actually.... but i just ended up deleting it because only myself and one other person joined. For some reason not a lot of people join spider line 4/spiderlinetris games. I guess its just not a popular game to play here *shrug*
If there is anyone interested in joining a tourney for either game let me know and i will create another and see how it goes!
Does anyone know why the latest games (eg Cam, Racing Kings, Dice Chess 10x10) are missing from the list when I try to create a Fellowship Tourny, please?
I have created an EXTRA TOURNEY (for all pawns that are stucked in tourneis wich i have searched and thanks to Fencer they all will be released so can play THIS tourney and for all the new members or pawns created this year )
