CONGRATULATIONS to everyone involved,

Sadly, the Spider Line 4 tournament had to be deleted

We have 3 tournaments coming up, and have the same 3 teams in each one, which means none of them will start.... is brainking really down to only 3 active Fellowships

October 2023 - Chess 1 is meant to start in 2 days, can we get ONE more team

MadMonkey: Have tried asking for a chess team but folk don't seem interested

Mousetrap: Not a problem Mouse, i can only try different games. I just cant beleive with all the fellowships here that we cant get teams of 4 (which is the lowest i can create) for some of the most popular games. We will soon just end up with a few different tournaments i can create with the same few teams in......such a shame

MadMonkey:  there are very few fellowships that even run tournaments I know when I run mine its now difficult to get even 4 to start the games and other then your tournaments in your fellowship I don't know of any others that even have them anymore

MadMonkey: It is a shame but what can you do? I would love to be in a spider team for tournaments but l am stuck in a spiders web of a deleted fellowship team. So l can't join another. And l have asked to be removed from it somehow but no response

Mousetrap: you can always 'leave' a team and then join another in another fellowship.
Check here: The International Friendship Club and use the "leave" button: should be
https://brainking.com/en/DoFellowMember?a=212&fid=403&tp=255

Aganju: Mouse is stuck on a spider team in a deleted fellowship. The team and game you selected is not the game. Fencer must manually remove mousetrap from the deleted fellowship then the mouse can join any team. Until fencer addresses the issue mouse cant play.

Marshmud: ok - what about trying to 'leave' that team by creating the respective link manually?
You would need to know the deleted fellowship's ID, but maybe there is a way to find it, and then insert the ID for the ### and the game ID for ***:
https://brainking.com/en/DoFellowMember?a=212&fid=###&tp=***

If the fellowship ID cannot be found, you could use Excel or something to generate a whole list of links with "...fid=1..." to "...fid=999..", and open them all.
I did something similar a while ago, and it worked perfectly - I saved the list of links in a file, loaded them as bookmarks into my browser, and then right-click 'open all'. it opens a gazillion windows, and one of them works as it should. just wait a bit and then close all.

...aside from the fact that all team members should be auto-released anyway when a fellowship is deleted... but no software is bug free.

Aganju: Exactly. I am about to delete a fellowship and will removed members manually before doing so aside from checking they are not in any teams before deleting.
I am clueless in doing that procedure with links
It would be easier to ask me to build a rocket to the moon
Although l know the Fellowship was the Good The Bad and The Ugly.
I have deleted ages ago any correspondence in messages l received from the fellowship which probably would have helped

beach: Yes, I agree...... I have just been looking through the Fellowships...the last one created was No.1009 though looking at the list only about 275 are still on the list

I just picked a few random ones, and some are just full of players no longer here, or pawns, basically dead fellowships etc…etc…

When I took over the team tournaments, I did ask Fencer if we could somehow tidy fellowships up, by removing Pawns & greyed out players etc.... and even remove the 'dead' Fellowships. He said it was a good idea, but for when he had time to do it.

Obviously, this would just tidy up things, and not actually get us any more active players & fellowships

Mousetrap: Yes, thats crazy, we must be able to sort that

MadMonkey:   I agree would be nice if he could at least do that it would clean things up allow team tournaments for those that stuck in dead fellowships and maybe help with other games.

Mousetrap: Finally, you're like a fly stuck in a spider's web. The parallel with the game you are stuck on is terrible !

I'd like to know what are the teams I am on, in order to remove myself from those which don't play anymore, so as not to get the same problem as Mouse.
Can you tell me how to know that ? Thank you.

beach: I'm currently thinking about leaving fellowships that no longer create tournaments. I deleted my own fellowship for this reason. There has never been a team tournament in my f/s but I hope I didn't blocked anyone, but I admit I didn't check anything before deleting it.
If all active players did this, it would clean up. It’s just an idea.

Mélusine: To find out which Teams you are on, goto Your Profile ----> Fellowships tab

that will show you the active ones you are on

If (like Mouse) you are on any deleted Fellowships teams, that is harder

Mélusine: nope your not allowed lol

MadMonkey:

Mélusine: That's true!

Well, it does not look like we will get another team for October 2023 - Chess 1

I will leave it until Friday just in case, and keep fingers crosses, you never know

Later today, or maybe tomorrow I will post a few more Team tournaments for the end of year and into 2024

If anyone had any requests for different tournaments, just post here or message me, otherwise I will go back to the ones that seem to gain enough interest.

We still need at least ONE more team in both November 2023 - Frog Finder 3 & November 2023 - Assimilation 1

MadMonkey: Thanks for the information. There's nothing so I guess I'm not in a team.
I admit that I no longer join team tournaments because the disadvantage is that we have no control over our participation in a tournament. So, I already had this situation : too many games in progress and being overwhelmed, so playing very slowly, which I hate.
