A new Battleboat Plus prize tournament has been created and is open to everyone.

It is a 128 player elimination tournament, so only the first 128 players to sign will be able to play. (So you will only get 1 game at a time) 4 days per move, plus if you win you get a 6 month knight membership.

SIGN UP HERE!

rod03801: How do you add games to stairs that are already set up?

there are some Ponds games in the Sunshine Club waiting for a few more players if anyone is interested!!

Well, you can only define stairs for games you already have as part of your fellowship. So, if Halma is the only game you have set up as a team in your fellowship, for example, you will have to add teams for the games you want to add to your stairs.

You don't have to create new stairs for the new games. You can add the games to the stairs you already have set up.

I would like to add more stairs to my fellowship but at the top of the page it already has halma 8x8 to be defined...I already have that game,I would like to add more...can I change the one at the top of the page or will it just ignore that one since I have it already? Also,when I go to set up a tourney...chess was there already but I didn't want chess but I was unable to remove it from the top of the page.thanks!!

Few more tourneys that need just 1 or two more players to start

Thank you Fencer!

There is no point to continue in this discussion because I am not going to do any changes anyway.

I don't agree with both your commends.. Bumble is a beloved friend of many here and this tourny was set up for him in the first place! He cannot be "just" removed..... Thank you for your understanding! Blessings!!!

alanback... on your win: Backgammon & Hyper 2100+ First 8 (Backgammon)

wellywales on your win: Backgammon & Hyper 2100+ First 8 (Backgammon)

I never really got to know him, But from what I've read here on this board, tells me he had many friends that loved him and he will be dearly missed.. My condolences goes out to his family.

cariad: nothing to apologize for..you did nothing wrong..thanks for your post

Sorry Meddy- I will say no more on this

Thank you chuck, let the tournament go on as normal, let each person do what they feel is right, let this board get back to normal...well for it anyways...

Eriisa: My point is that this "second place person" will only be someone who is "lucky" enough to not be in the same section with Bumble until the last round..... anyway, if it hurts people to much to discuss this, then I will stop, I was only trying to help understand what we are doing here.

a side note: Anyone that is bothered by BKR,, remember if you resign your games with Bumble at the start.. then your bkr will not be affected :o)

Czuch Chuckers: That should be each person's choice.



Cariad has already posted what she will do if bum wins. Is there really a need to keep questioning it?

MsDelete: If everyone in this section resigns, then Bumble will go to the next round, then if everyone in that round resigns, he wins again and so on, is this how we want this to go?

I'm so sorry for the confusion. It's my fault. I've been doolally and zonked and hormonal and sad and happy and angry.
I'm so very sorry.

If my Papa 'wins' the tournament the prize will go to the second place player.

MidnightMcMedic: Thanks, MMM, but last time I posted there I got banned. Let's just say that due to the head mod there, the board is not worth reading, IMO, and leave it at that. I see now, that if I change the selection, I can see info (or the price at least) for a lifetime membership. Perhaps the Paid membership page could use an update to make that membership level a little more visible. ;-)

And more questions like this can be found in features requests :D

Thad: On the paid membership page, you can choose the "life time" price. You can also get a black knight for the cost of 10 years of a knight. (At least I'm guessing there is a black knight, have not seen one yet.)

Thad: pay for 10 yrs or make deal with Fencer :)

First, I realize this isn't quite the right board, but...

I was wandering atround BK and I noticed that Tanein's rook is black. A click on her profile revealed that she is a rook forever! How cool!! How does one become a lifetime rook member?

Thanks,
Thad

hey guys if you scroll way down..Floosie sent a message with a link that Cariad had set up a tourney In Honor of her dad. I had not noticed that until tonight..but when I did...I stopped dodging the games I had with that tourney. I'm like all of you..if I had been in his section and had a game with him..I would have resigned it and I think that is a great thing to do..but otherwise I really think the tourney needs to go on in his honor..just my opinion..scroll down and read Floosie's message and decide for yourself though. : )

night owl: i only resigned my games with phil, everyone else is going to have to earn the win!

night owl: I could be mistaken but I think everyone is just resigning if they were scheduled with Bumble. All other games are still on!

emmett: 2 points, 1. Fencer has enough to deal with right now.
2. this is a personal decision for each player, i've made mine the way i feel good about. others will undoubtably make a different one.

ok not sure what to do..if i should play or not..yes that would help so every one know what to do..i know what you mean can not be nice for he's family and friends..sure is painful point.. thanks.

night owl: It seems like Fencer should step in with a decision here, if only to end the interminable debate that prolongs this painful point.

night owl: i'm not sure about what others are doing, but i resigned my games to help him go out on a winning streak. it felt right for a man who's done so much on and off of BK.

is everyone resigning for the section with Bumble? am playing in that one..if you all are then i will do the same 2 i not played him befor i know a lot of you know him sorry to hear he has passed away.

red dragon: Ah, that makes sense. ;-)

Czuch Chuckers: I'll try to explain. This is hard for me.
cariad created the tournament because she was overjoyed at her father's return from hospital. bumble joined the tournament in good faith. He was happy to be able to use the computer again and see his friends on brainking again. Look at his final posts. They're all happy. He loved brainking.
But his illness took a sudden turn for the worse and he died on February 14th in his sleep.
The tournament had another title but when her father died cariad asked Fencer to change it.

If bumble had won the tournament he would have given his prize to the runner-up.

cariad attended her father's funeral today. If she'd been here and seen this board she would have removed his name.

I like that idea too, Czuch

Czuch Chuckers: Exactly!!!

I agree with Chuck.

On another related note... I would like to see his BKR's reinstated to the level before any games that were timed out. Seeing him with a 1500 backgammon bkr just doesnt seem right.

Ah... so I am confused! The tournament set up for Bumbnle by Cariad was done apon his return and he had signed up? I didnt hear about it untli later and when I signed up there were already over a hundred people and I thought that was why, I didnt realize he was in that one, I thought there was one he was not in, sorry!

Am I the only one confused?
There is a tournament for Bumble with a 6 month membership, and a tournament with Bumble in it?
It is only the tournament with Bumble in it that people in his section are resigning, obviously? Its true at some point Bumble will win this tournament if everyone resigns all their games with him. I a sure if this happens, fencer will do something good with this money, perhaps another tournament in his honor? But it is also likely that some will not resign their games with him, and it is likeley that someone other than Bumble will end up winning this tournament. Anyway it works out, no big deal, those who resigned should not really care if they lose...

Thad: I'm sure it will not get that far. I'm sure there are some users in the tournament who do not read this board to get that idea, plus I think everyone needs to show respect and do what is right for them so they may not choose to resign - but respect and remember him in a different way. Everyone should do what they feel is right for them. I'm sure bumble's family is touched by the actions of some to resign, and it is a very nice thing to do.

One thing I would like to ask is that no one go negative towards anyone who does not resign, or even think negativly towards them - that would be the last thing bumble would want. Everyone should mourn the way they need to, and not be forced or felt pressured to do so.

Um, it's really sweet that you are all resigning your games, but is everyone going to do that? He'll win the tournament and the 6-month membership. With all respect, does that make sense? Or else you'll have one clod who does not resign and takes the section (or tournament) win in a most unsportsmanlike way. Please don't flame me. I'm just looking at the bigger picture.

i've resigned too
Bumble lives in our hearts!

Stevie: I am, I've already resigned both games

Dolittle: I see its now started.. alas, Im not in Bumble's section.

Stevie:Thanks Stevie, I totally agree and would do the same. He may be gone but is certainly still in the hearts of many on here that do show respect!

Stevie: i would do the same in any game that i had with him! i think everyone should!
