Subiectul: Re:

Universal Eyes: When a question mark (?) appears at the end of a sentence it is commonly known as a question. That means that you can answer yes or no. You appeared to be saying he wouldn't let you give away a membership.

Judging from your response you don't know the meaning of slander (or hearsay for that matter).

24. Februarie 2005, 22:51:23

Maybe i should just stop giving gifts away,i know people earn them,but at the same time somebody paid for them,like 7 of them.

24. Februarie 2005, 22:48:03

Grenv are you speaking for Fencer and stating he wont give me a membership,or do you usually tell hearsay and slander as well.

24. Februarie 2005, 21:35:48

Hrqls

of course ue can buy a membership and give it away to the winner of the pond .. although it wont be done the same way as an ordinary prize tournament .. it can still be done (i guess ;))

as bbw said the exact prize was never mentioned

i also remember seeing a description like that

Subiectul: Re:

Universal Eyes: So Fencer won't let you buy a membership and do whatever you want with it? That's not good business sense.

I signed up for that too, with the understanding it was a prize pond.

Prizes for tournaments should be paid for (if the prize is a membership) BEFORE its created.
Any other prizes offered by members can't be guaranteed by BrainKing.

It does matter (IMO). People have signed up for a prize tournament.

You know it really does not matter since it never said what the prize was - maybe the prize was "The pleasure of playing in his pond".

Now if it said something like "Prize for 6 month rook", or some other object - then I would agree that it is wrong to change it. But it never said what the prize was so it really does not matter.

Subiectul: Re:

Universal Eyes: the part where it was advertised as being a Prize Pond(as per post below), up until you changed it then it started.

I'm sure some of the players in it perhaps signed up with it being a Prize Pond mwho otherwise may not have signed up.

What part of this do you not understand?

24. Februarie 2005, 20:16:59

Stevie

I can confirm..I joined a pond offering a prize. It was described as Brys post below...but has changed AGTER the pond started

24. Februarie 2005, 20:10:10

There is no prizes for ponds.What part do you not understand.

Subiectul: Re:

Universal Eyes: That makes no sense. If you buy the membership you can give it to whoever you want, including someone who wins your pond.

Universal Eyes: see below - before you changed it. I even PM'd you about the title.

Subiectul: Re:

Universal Eyes: It did before you changed it - just before it started. It also had a different description too from the one that is currently there.

Why can you not give prizes out for ponds? There is usually a winner?

Modificat de Universal Eyes (24. Februarie 2005, 19:45:22)

You can not give prizes out for ponds and no where does it stat there is a prize,it says the winners will be anounced upon winning.Bry you should read again i'm sure everyone else will.

Universal Eyes: Is this the same kind of "Prize" tournament you initially set up here .... http://brainking.com/game/Pond?g=145 ...???

Then changed it from a Prize Pond?

Please can we have an explanation?

It looks like you are signed up so in an hour or so, games from this tournament should show up for you. Good Luck!
