Universal Eyes

I have had numerous "POND" prizes, that I have paid for myself...for example T-shirts, (and when people didnt want T-shirts, I supplied, a Table Runner and fancy Note paper etc, which Texas Toest won) I ran an Easter Hamper pond....I gave a consolation prise to the person that was knocked out first...namely Arctic Warrior...he has since received his prize. I have posted to Fencer a lovely embroidered T-shirt for Sinay. I have sent a Blue(requested color)T-shirt to Mike UK for his win....UMMMMMMM i could go on....OH Maxxine won the easter hamper...that has been sent.

I have honoured all my promises of a prize...Im just waiting for confirmation of receipt of prizes.

Any prize offered by myself has been honoured at great cost and UE...i also saw your "PRIZE" for ponds but knowing your past decided not to come into it.

I was the first to offer prizes in ponds and it hasnt at this stage been vetoed by Fencer.

Bry....hehehehe....now im confused LOLOL on your description so what chance UE????

Universal Eyes: OK. You clearly cannot grasp what we are saying.

Here's a solution you may be able to understand.

Cancel the Hyper Backgammon Prize Pond you have created, and apologise to anyone who has signed up.

Change the Pond description (Again) back to a Prize Pond and tell Fencer that the Membership/Prize you were offering for the Hyper BG tournament is in fact to be used for the Pond game you originally advertised as a Prize Pond.

Does this make sense to you?

dang...it wasnt me...it was the programme i was using. but its ok cos I told the site owner i was using it ;o)

Now you're just making stuff up! lol

its Lime that is in motion and can not hear LOL

First you have to flimate the character, which has something to do with altering the font size. After that you can deflimate it. Hence deflimation.

grenv: give up Grenv LOL

grenv:????????????????Then what is deflimation of character then

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).

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.

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

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

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.

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?

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

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

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.

Ask Fencer it states no prizes for ponds,i'll talk to Fencer about it.

This was what was originally created...

A Wham Bams first PRIZE TOURNAMENT!#1 takes It. Creator: No Quarter

Welcome to all,thanks for joining let's get toughter and fight against this CF ********

I know of at least 5 people who would confirm this was the case.

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?

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?

I've posted a prize tournament for HyperBackgammon,that will start on the 17th of March.All are welcome,pawns will need 10 open game slots as of that date to enter.Good luck to all and have fun! Your friend Mike:

MidnightMcMedic: my apologies m'lady! as you wish!

MidnightMcMedic: all in good fun - thanks for the reality check....

Counter offers and sibling rivalry that way please

shagglbrox: Do you have a better counter offer? LOL

redfrog: Ouch! Gimme a sec, some of just got here...

Partica: hey Q - maybe we should be careful - you should hear the noises when he stubs a toe....

shagglbrox: Yes Yes - my whole life spent in your shadow...

I understand that the tourny itself will give you some good brainking experience, but until then, isnt there an "unrated" board you could hang out on?

redfrog: Finally gave up on beating me yourself, eh frog? Poor guy. Everybody, take it easy on the frog, he's had a tough run lately. (oh, and don't think I don't see you taking sides, Partica!)

ceridwen: a bounty if you will.....

redfrog: You've put a contract out on your brother? Now there's a thought...

redfrog: LOL WooHoo! Good Luck all fellow pente addicts! Lets whip up on the brother for the extra prize! LOL

Billmo8: I've received several *automated* messages from the computer posing as fencer that stated the tourney was created and should start within an hour, and then that it had started... :) Good Luck to all who joined.... (except shagglbrox my brother - I'm thinking about offering an extra prize to the player with the most wins against him and if they cause his elimination..)

Fencer: of course not - silly me ......

redfrog: It is automatically generated. I wouldn't bother to send so many messages personally :-)

Billmo8: I just got an message from fencer stating that it has been created and should begin within an hour... ummmmm..... just like BBW said..... :)

Billmo8: That tournament is currently in the "waiting" stage - which basicly means it should start in the next hour.

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

redfrog: Is this still happening? I don't see it listed anymore, and being new to this site, I don't know what happens next after you sign up for a tournament. Thanks. - Billmo

harley: thanks Harley I don't know how to do that
