A new set of Team Tournaments that are set to start in January are now up!
3 of the 5 never had a team tournament before, and the other 2 had only 1 before.... but both have been completed.
Hopefully I got a nice mix of small team size, and faster times including a couple with no vacations allowed.
As always - I take suggestions (which is where a few of those team tournaments came from)..... and if you could, PLEASE send me a quick message. (I then can easily save all the messages in one place so when I get ready to make new ones, I can see all the suggestions & ideas in one place - posting them here.... well is nice, but I might forget about it when the time comes.)
I've temporarily taken over the Ponds Plus fellowship and will be setting up ponds on a regular basis shortly after Thanksgiving, so if you like to play ponds, please feel free to ask for an invite PONDS PLUS
For someone like me who runs lots of Tournaments, i get lots of messages telling me who has won what, so every day i put these messages in a folder, then every couple of weeks go through them all and post them on the Madhouse DB to Congratulate them all as one, rather than lots & lots of posts every day.
Jim Dandy: I did put a Feature request in ALONG time ago, either have a way to turn those messages off OR filter them straight to Trash (or separate Folder if you wish)
tinksbell: Other than feeling a little uncomfortable saying no,my initial reaction is to feel flattered when invited to a fellowship.My only spam issue here is having to delete all the "you won,you lost" messeges.
Marshmud: What bothers me the most is the repeated SPAMMING I get from other fellowship owners. I think that if I decline once, that should be enough, I should not have to decline every month if not more often, it takes the enjoyment out of playing here. I should also not have to turn off the fellowship invites.
tinksbell: Again I'm sorry I disturbed you. I only gave you the offer to win free memberships and brains, and since you have played hundreds of boat and gammon games, thought you'd be interested in those games. I did not check your fellowship team play. Gosh tinksbell its only a game site, and I've never been attacked for offering a prize.
tinksbell: This is what you requested on your profile: Please do not invite me to fellowships that are not focused on the games that I play.....Each of the 5 tournaments I have are the games you play. So where is it I misread? Sorry I disturbed you.

FIRST: The Turkish Checkers Team Tournaments needs 1 more team to start. I like to mix it up with different game types, so I would love to see some get together to get one more team signed up so this can start.
There is a team with 4 players, a team with 3 players, and a few teams with 2 players. Lets see one of you try to recruit from these players to see if you can get a team of 5 to join this tournament!
SECOND: A suggestion was made to spread out the tournaments a little - instead of having them all start on 1 day - so for September's group, I have them starting about a week apart from each other.
FEEDBACK WANTED: How do you like that? Do you like them spread out like that, or all starting at the same time? Hopefully being spread out a little will help get more to join since they know they won't be bombarded with a lot of new games all at once.
As always, I'm always open to suggestions & ideas. (In private message the best since I can organize it and look at them when I start to make new site team tournaments..... but in here to discuss them with others would probable be OK also.)
I private messaged you, Fencer about this. I see no notations saying "hidden users" either here or in fellowships I am in with this player so not sure what to do next.
on fellowship boards. I have a player in my friends list but when I am in fellowships with this player, I can see where people have replied to this player but not their posts. Apparently, this user's posts are being hidden from me but not necessarily from others and I am wondering how to get this user's posts so that they will be visible to me.
If you like teamtournaments, and you don't have a fellowship where you play them, or you want to play with some other dedicated gamers , please join the The Teamplayers fellowship. Here in this fellowship, we only play teamtournaments, nothing else. For other games you have plenty of fellowships where you can join.
There are some places free for the upcoming tournaments.
I've created 6 new team tournaments for fellowships to compete in. Fencer has allowed the "time per game" time control, and also allowed for us to make them with hours in the standard time (since 2/3 days seemed too short for some, 4 days seemed too long - a good 3 day, 12 hour is nice)
Anyway, I have heard 2 main complaints/suggestions. (1) team size for the popular games is too high for smaller fellowships to get teams and (2) Team Tournaments last too long.
Well I've tried to mix things up to hopefully help those 2 things. There are 2 backgammon TT's that have a small team size - plus 3 of the 6 use the Fischer Clock time control which have NO DAYS OFF - no vacations - no weekends. (SO CAPTAINS - Make sure your team understand how these time controls work - have them check out this article if needed: http://brainrook.com/archives/54-Time-limit-for-games-on-BrainKing.html )
The other 3 TT's use standard vacations, two with 3 days, 12 hours - and one with a little quicker 2 days, 12 hours time limit.
2 of the games (Open pente & Fevga) never had a TT before 2 of the games (Turkish Checkers & Logik) have not had a TT for awhile - both pretty popular (31st and 21st most popular according to current games)
So hopefully this was a good mix. As always, suggestions and ideas are always welcomed.
