Subiectul: Hyper 21 +
Hyper Backgammon is a pretty quick game, so a 21 point cube match is Perfect for this game:

Hyper 21 - Starts November 5th

= = = = = =

Plus since some do not know how to play with the cube, some practice tournaments have been set up where NO BKR Ratings will be effected - great way to jump right in and learn.

  • Oct 20 - 5 Point Cube Backgammon #1
  • Oct 30 - 5 Point Cube Backgammon #2

    ScarletRose: A record chess game between Nikolic - Arsovic (Belgrade 1989), with 269 moves.

    Chess is infinite: There are 400 different positions after each player makes one move apiece. There are 72,084 positions after two moves apiece. There are 9+ million positions after three moves apiece. There are 288+ billion different possible positions after four moves apiece. There are more 40-move games on Level-1 than the number of electrons in our universe. There are more game-trees of Chess than the number of galaxies (100+ billion), and more openings, defences, gambits, etc. than the number of quarks in our universe!

    The longest Chess game theoretically possible is 5,949 moves.

    for more, see the fs ;)

    It's unlikely that a chess game would go over 100 or even 75 for that matter. But I've played many games that neared the 75 mark.

    Andre Faria: And the winner has already been determined! Fencer is unwise for not upgrading the system so that in tournaments like this winners are declared as soon as they are mathematically assured, even if all games are not finished. Even ****** IYT has that.

    lovelysharon: Yep, I know. I stated that in the general chat. Almost 3 moves/day.

    In this kind of games there´s a big risk of someone being stucked for more than a year...

    Pioneer54: I'm still playing in a tourney that started:

    24. November 2004, 06:05:17

    I was a knight when I renewed but found I couldn't play in any tourneys. When I looked at all of the running tourneys I was no longer playing in but they were still running, I realised it would be months before I could even join any new ones. So I went to the rook membership.

    You really have to plan carefully if you join a tourney. Even the 7 day tourneys can take a long long time. ;)

    Subiectul: I like the "fast" time limits
    Re: on Time

    I sympathize with BG's earlier comments. I've entered quite a few tournaments with longer time limits, thinking that would not matter, and MAN, DID I EVER GET BURNED!!? Now I'm stuck in events, including some in which I finished my games many weeks ago, due to the fact that one player or another--who has way too many games going--is moving almost constantly at the "11th hour".

    Nothing to do but wait.... and wait.... and wait.... and wait.... However, when browsing the tournament list, I no longer even consider those listings that have time limits greater than 5 days, and I'm even a bit hesitant at that level.

    It has been argued that an access problem or emergency could cause some timeouts. I thought that is what the "autovac" policy was for. Even so, I would rather deal with that than the slow play alternative; after all, there will be other tournaments, other times.

    Bry: My guess is that your 21 day tourneys finish in about the same time a 7 day move tourney would. Generally speaking. There's always acceptions.

    I just played in a backgammon tourney, can't remember the time controls, but I went to bed with no moves in any games, and woke up to having timed out in three of my games! whoah.

    BG: Mine was a general comment not a reply to you.

    Why do some people seem to take great delight in holding tournaments up? I don't know. Perhaps they want to see the other's results first. Perhaps they have too many games.
    I don't know a way of avoiding them other than restricting oneself to the fast tournaments, but even then...

    Go back and read what I said. I am not complaining about Bry's tournament, which I have not joined.

    9. Octombrie 2005, 14:07:08

    I think the bottom line is, Bry's backgammon tournaments remain among the most popular on BK.
    And of course anyone is entitled to promote their tournament here. And of course anyone is entitled to express their opinion. This is the Tournaments discussion board.

    As Bry says, though, you know the set up of the tournament before it starts. If you accept that, sign up. If you don't accept it, then don't sign up. There are plenty of other tournaments, or create your own with your preferences as to
    game time etc.
