BrainKing - Panouri de discuţii (Checkers)

Subiectul: NOMAD

Isn't Nomad co-moderator, anymore? I hope is everything allright with him!
Anyway... I'm still available to be co-mod in this board. As it looks that a lot of people agrees with that...

Subiectul: Re: Top 10 players from then to now.

B L I T Z M E: Unfortunatelly, I only know Moseyev. And some portuguese players, but they play Portuguese (Spanish? Classic?) Checkers. Anyway, I believe that, in general, it's difficult to compare players from different centuries / decades. And, usually, youngsters are better than the eldest, because they have all the background that was builded for the others!

Subiectul: Moderator

Hey, this is not about checkers, but it's about this board. Can any of our moderators explain me how can someone be moderator of this board? I think it would be nice if we could vote for our moderators... Of course, Purple is a very active moderator, but I think Ustica or nomad aren't so useful, like moderators. Maybe we could vote for another checker player to moderate this board. What do you think about it?

Subiectul: Re:

Andre Faria: Indeed! I've seen a few games of some of the best checkers players here (purple, ustica, pinchitos...) and they used that technic in their games! I still don't know exactly how it works, besides I've readen carefully undertaker's article!

Does anybody needs me to translate it? It would be a pleasure! ;)

Subiectul: Re: Draws

"Have Fun": Eheh... I remember that. It needs pacience, but it's possible! Gothik checkers have much more possibilities than any other variants, so it's always hard to say it is a draw. I think it is only a draw in a 1-1 situation.Well, there are another possibility, in a 2-2 situation, but it's not fair to tell you wich, since the game is not finished yet. ;)

Subiectul: Re: Draws

Purple: That's right... in IYT, they had the rule (a fair rule, indeed) of the same board for the 3rd move, gives a draw. We could suggest it to Fencer!

6. Octombrie 2006, 15:34:12

Subiectul: Re: Draws

Andre Faria: It happenned to me too, and Fencer have done the same. I think it depends on the knowledge of Fencer about the game. For players who really know, for example, anti-checkers game, it's easy to know when it is a draw. To people who doesn't know so much the game, they might think it is not a draw. I'm thinking in a 4-2 situation, that it's clearly a draw, if the 2 pieces are together (and the defender s a good player)...

Andre Faria: We both know 3 of them... I don't know if you can recognize them, Andre! You haven't been so many years in IYT as I've been, but I'm sure you've already played against them!

!Undertaker!: It is great! Congrats, Undertaker! I believe Fencer will accept it, I see no reasons to forget this variant.

Purple: May I make some advertisement to my fellowship too? Or it's a privilege of the moderator, only?

Subiectul: Re:

Bruno Jesus: Take care with your considerations... they use to ban people that makes questions/considerations or other types of thaughts... as I said before, Mr. Purple is not an European, and we must forgive him... USA has less than 300 years, europe more than 3000 years of civilization...

6. Iunie 2006, 11:05:49

Does anyone knows if Moiseyev plays here? I would really like to play a game with him!

Another question, does anyone knows the history of Gothik Checkers? It looks to me a more evoluted game, but the name suggests it should be an older game.

Subiectul: Re: Checkers

Purple: If those stories are true, it will be a plaisure to be banned... I don't want to belong to something like it...

22. Mai 2006, 18:41:39

Did someone get hurted with my "erased words"?
I'm just looking for some answers!
I want to know if some "stories" I've been heard are true or false. It looks like they are true!
