BrainKing - Fóruns de discussão (Tournaments)

IMupChucKing: I assume you enter the maximum amount of players you want (20) then start the tournament when 20 have signed up.
Set the start date, say, amout a month from now then if 20 people sign up tomorrow you can bring the start date forward by editing.

ou need to be a paid member to be eligable to get brains. Once a member, you can earn brains by refering people to pay for membership. Those earned brains can then be used to upgrade your membership or get a new one when it runs out.

Derek....it is like anything else in this world...you must pay for it....MONEY..real money.
Then you get all your friends to sign up and pay for a membership and tell them to tell Fencer that you sent them and you get 25, 50 etc brains depending on their level of membership accredited to you.....then if you have enuff friends that sign up, you might get a free renewal depending on the number of brains you have.

hehehe now i have read that even im confused LOLOLOL

18. Julho 2004, 03:06:58

Assunto: A couple of questions about creating a tournament..

I want to make one for 20 players. But the minimum number of players is 16. Why is it so low? What I did was make 20 the maximum, will the tournament automatically start when that number is hit? or do I have to change the start time? Thanks :)

Derek.... GO READ THE BRAINS LINK , IT HAS ALL THE INFO THERE!

18. Julho 2004, 02:54:02

so I pay with brains not real money

18. Julho 2004, 02:50:32

bwildman

in a way yes.you pay for an upgraded membership,and certain levels recieve brains.I know this sounds silly,bt when I became a paid member...I gave my brains to the person who recommended the site to me.

18. Julho 2004, 02:45:41

does it mean I have to pay for them

18. Julho 2004, 02:42:17

bwildman

Assunto: Re:

how many slots did you need

18. Julho 2004, 02:05:23

Apologies to those who signed for my anti-checkers tourney. I started it when 4 people had signed, as promised, but one person didn't have enough empty slots so it was deleted.

How do I get a picture on

17. Julho 2004, 20:06:33

NOT a floosie

Go back to the tournament page where it lists the players. Just above the list click "remove me from this tournament".

17. Julho 2004, 20:05:44

sandra...

You're a busy man there Fencer, I see phpMyAdmin, Apache, and Java programs all open and being worked on. Jeez lol

16. Julho 2004, 18:11:57

Well once they see the other team's with pictures, I would bet most of them will try to add some pictures soon.

16. Julho 2004, 18:02:41

Unfortunatelly not all signed teams have pictures.

16. Julho 2004, 16:40:06

Cool - you even have the team pictures there! Can't wait!

16. Julho 2004, 13:55:59

Preview.

Assunto: Team Tournament

Errrm ... I will have to postpone it once more. I've been too busy in my work and couldn't implement last details.
It's a matter of day or two, nothing complicated :-)

15. Julho 2004, 13:19:45

Of course it's not the final solution but I had no time to improve it :-)

15. Julho 2004, 13:11:02

Right! Thanks :o)

15. Julho 2004, 13:00:07

For "1 game for 2 players", a player will ALWAYS need 5 game slots open (Even if they only start 4 games, or even if they start 7 games) - the computer just checks for 5 free slots.

For the 2 games per 2 players, players will need 10 slots open. Even if a player starts 6 or 8 games, they will still need 10 games slots open.

15. Julho 2004, 12:53:40

No, they still need 10 slots.

15. Julho 2004, 12:15:16

Eek, it shouldn't say 4 players! It hasn't been THAT long since I ran a tourney, I'm sure!

How about if I make it 4 players per section? Would they only need 6 slots then? Now MM has joined I can do that. (Thanks MM)

15. Julho 2004, 12:03:02

harley: I have entered your Maharajah Chess tourny, but it says only 4 players and you have 7 (well 8 now lol).
If there are too many just remove me :o)

Assunto: Re:

OK. I understand. Thanks.

15. Julho 2004, 11:59:18

Yes. One or two slots over limit don't matter in this case.

15. Julho 2004, 11:56:52

Mike UK

Assunto: Re:

OK. So you allow them to go over their limit?

15. Julho 2004, 11:53:27

No, it's always 10 required empty slots.

15. Julho 2004, 11:52:16

Assunto: Re:

Correct - 12 slots for 7 players - 14 slots for 8 players

15. Julho 2004, 11:50:47

Modificado por harley (15. Julho 2004, 11:51:33)

Oh, but how can it be 10 slots in all cases? I have 7 people signed - maximum section number is 8, so it would only create one section with all 7 players.

Each player would play 2 games with each other person, making 12 slots needed?

15. Julho 2004, 11:48:48

Thanks :o)

15. Julho 2004, 11:45:23

And you need at least the number of player which is defined as "minimum players" for the tournament.

15. Julho 2004, 11:44:34

10 is all cases.

15. Julho 2004, 11:29:09

Assunto: Quick question....

In a tourney of switched colours, 8 players per section, how many slots would a person need to participate?

And what if I changed it to a maximum of 4 players per section?

And last one - if I change it to 4 players per section, does that mean I need at least 8 players?

Assunto: Re: First team tournament

Can't you just wait for Friday? It would be hard to explain without showing real examples.

14. Julho 2004, 23:52:54

Assunto: Re: First team tournament

How will it work anyway?
Who does play who?
How many games per player?

14. Julho 2004, 19:43:21

Assunto: First team tournament

But then each person will only get 2 games.

14. Julho 2004, 19:37:04

Assunto: Re: First team tournament

ow about 6 sections with 3 teams each.... make for a lot more in the final round, and more fun and games for most?

14. Julho 2004, 17:56:52

Assunto: First team tournament

Wow - 18 teams are now set up - so 3 sections with 6 teams each!

Then the top team from each section will go and face each other. This is going to be cool - even if say I do really bad and lose all my games, if my teammates do really good, we can still go and win a section!

14. Julho 2004, 15:44:07

Assunto: First team tournament

I have postponed the tournament deadline to Friday, 16th July 2004. The reason is that I had no time to perform all required tests and without tests it would be too risky to start it.
