Walter, the Linda J tourny is in a completely different league to the other one you are on about. I dont think you will be dissapointed by rejoining :o)

Maybe help isnt wanted from certain players.


Good Its one of a few things that need changing about the tournys setup Fencer

ummm Harley, read what I put, I know its a final duh.

Rather than me having to look through all my many running tournys, someone has a pm telling them it needs doing

Has someone got a final that needs starting?

I have this on my main page ..Total number of your started games: 138 + 1 (?)

1 is not enough for a new tourny

I think Jason means resign them not delete

Like yours??
Probably cos he got noone sign up for it, he may off if it wasnt so close to Linda s one being up

Gothics was for money to go to Brainking :o)

So what was your 10000 dollar tourny all about LJ?
I cant ask PM cos you stuck me on enemy LOL is it cos I can see through you and your schemes??

I aint got space for you to show them Ughaibu, mines too full up with fellowship tournies :oS
managed to keep post on topic look LOL

$10,000 First Prize Backgammon

I would wet myself if this happened and you had to fork that amount out.
But hey, I am sure the tourny wont stay there long anyways

LJ grow up will you please

It will highlight the tourny title in the tourny list to show it offers a prize.
You should then say in the description for the tourny what the prize you offer will be.
(You can also offer money as a prize, it could be paid direct to the winner, as long as both you and the winner has a paypal account etc.)

You can remove players before it starts, you have to start new rounds when first ones complete (you are informed when this happens). no rulings except the ones you state for entrance to tourny and about the prize in the tourny description.
normally prize is a membership, and the way it is done can be discussed with Fencer.

If you start a prize Tourny Walter, its up to you to supply the prize and explain what it is :o)
Have fun running your tournies :o)

Well it got filled up so started early
Stevie's" Dollar donation per player Reversi
Unfortunately, one player was removed due to lack of space. Incase this was due to me starting it early I will still pay the dollar for that player and sorry to vlckova25

Have fun and enjoy the games :o)
Steve

Sounds good to me :o)

What to you class as official, or non official Fencer?

Does that mean you will be doing your own BK ones?

Nothing special nor fancy, no prizes nor donations, just plain old reversi 6x6.

upchuck maybe..maybe not, only he knows

Jason also numbers look better in Dollars than pounds LOL

Jason: Fencer has always worked in USD hasnt he. Once he changes to Euro, then we will talk Euro's I guess LOL

BBW has been moving well recently upchuck, so its no surprise to me :o)

Thats fine Harley :o) Thanks

Is there anyone who would like to join me in sponsoring this tourny? Stevie's Dollar donation per player Reversi

Maybe match the amount I put in, or even offer a prize for the winner etc.
Anything is better than nothing even 40 cents per player is $12 at the present amount of players. There is a limit of 50 players, so only need 19 more.

Have fun and enjoy your games :o)
Steve

Jack, you were close, you removed the @ but forgot the a to replace them :o)

Its on everyones main page, so all have seen it that visit the site. 9000 players have been here in the past, but not that many use the site now. I would also presume that most pawns who will not pay for membership, will not pay to join a tourny. So I get the feeling you will not get many more join :o(

I am sure its on enough boards etc for everyone to know about it LOL
I guess Lythande meant a link direct to the tourny

A tourney for the non expert Checkers players to have a chance to win :o)
Steveie's quick Checkers under 1600 BKR

Helping Brainking Tourney
Stevie's Dollar Donation per player Reversi

Hi all, for every player who enters this tourney ,I will donate 1 dollar to Brainking. So more pawns and Knights can join in, I have set 1 game each and max 5 slots needed (means 2 games each colour too). If less than 15 players, I will donate 2 Dollars per player. Have fun and enjoy the games :o)

Would be nice if I could find 1 or more players who are willing to donate the same amount, to double or treble the money etc :o)

I was thinking about setting up a simple ladder for the BK reversi players similar to the GT ones, one ladder per variation.
If you are interested, please let me know in one way or another.
It would be set up on my website and accesable from BK. But the games would have to started manually etc.

Steve

So there is Niki LOL I see Egzot only has 1 now. Maybe Longjohn needs to delete one, but then it may delete both. So I reckon LJ needs to get in touch with Fencer :o)

How will you accept fee? Ithought it had to be over certain amount due to admin fees etc on paypal and so on. Or am I getting confused with something else Fencer was on about?

BTW I am not whinging, I have signed up :o)
and ideas only come from talking about it

Have you asked this in the last couple of days BBW?

It must be an echo in here LOL

Only one entry per player MM LMAO

Fencer, If I remove someone from a Tournament using the "remove link" Does it let them know they have been removed by pm etc? or will they only find out if they look at the tourny again?

you setting yourself up for some ribbing in the cave Bwild LMAO

Best bit is that they are online LOL

Revenge is sweet, the worst player on this site for what we just talked about, has just timed out in 2 tourny games with me for the first time. Must have left it a little to long LMAO Be nice if it happened with the other 10's or so that they have with me LOL

I would like to see that start happening in tournaments too Kitti :o)

I was pointing out no insults thrown on here for a while Ughaibu LOL

The asking to resign business is fine Harley, but I have come across at least one of these "slow" players that wont even acknowledge a pm from you or a gl or gg etc, let alone resign if requested to :o(

You would get more complaints if pawns could post, and there are many members who wont post too. For now, I will be removing slow players before the tournys start, its not malicious etc , just trying to make the tournaments happier for all, if the slow players dont like it, its my tournaments :o)

Hey Ughaibu, you noticed the tournaments board is a more polite debate board LOL

Also, learning can be done outside of tournaments

Just like fellowships can be run how the big boss wants, surely a tournament can be run how the creater wants, thus they can do something as long as they have said it in the tournament description BEFORE hand and looks into it properly and doesnt just dive in like bull in china shop.

I personally would only look into it if asked by one of the players like you say Ughaibu, or a majority vote of the other players in the tourny (including the game players).

I think it would be a good idea Fencer, preferably used when a game is obvious who will win.
It gives more control, considering its the tournament creators right to control as they would like it to be. I would suggest though, that if finished like that, the game should not affect bkr's otherwise it could cause problems with players etc and could be used as a cheat etc.

I see it as a joke Bernice LOL

I am against the slow play but will stand up for Ugh because I know he is also a fast player also. The problems arise with those that are like it permanently

If I set a tourny at 1 day, not many will join because of if there are problems. So I set a little longer so as to allow for this and get more to join.
A speed limit of 50mph does not mean you have to go at 50 mph, it means anywhere from 0 - 50 mph, I think the problem we are getting at is the players who constantly go at 49.8 mph just because they can. you can watch them on here doing it no matter what anyone says about they are aloud to.
I agree they can if they want, but I dont mind it on the odd ocasions, but not every move. Most of us move sensibly, but these players ruin it for us. I often end up with the first god knows how many "other player move" games all as a few players. When players say its because too many games on their list ( i understand the crash caused probs), I have said before if you cant moved all your "your move" games once in one day ( added 1 hr later so I am not misunderstood a day when they are online, not every day), then you have more than you can handle and should cut down. You have no one to blame except yourself, So dont hold everyone else up.
Lecture over LOL

I have turned to removing those type of players from my Tournies now before they start, I find it very annoying

Heres a Tourny to aid me to learn Turkish checkers :o) Games are still rated hence the hard way LOL

Stevies way to learn Turkisheckers the hard way ;)

Have fun and enjoy the games :o)
