John Baker: I have never played a live topurney, but I would imagine these days they could play them on touch screen computers or even online but face to face in the same room.
Wil: Yes that makes sense that a win for both sides cannot be gauranteed! Kitti is correct, it is black that has a gauranteed win formula, but both colors cannot have a gauranteed win, my bad, thanks!
I think , in 8x8, there is more advantage for white in a non diagnal start.... the common courtesy , to make it a more fair game, is to use diagnal start
Steve...why cant pawns get into the ladder web site and play too? hy must the be required to be in the fellowship? It doesn't seem to me like that should really make a difference.
I am sorry Rose...but as you can clearly see, it was Harley who started the off topic discussion... merley was responding to her posted comments. same as I am now responding to your post, even though it is off topic for this board.
I am offended that you have singled me out to be banned for being off topic, and have, for some unknown reason, decided to not warn Harley, who mad more off topic comments than I had...
I find that the random reversi players I play against on Gold Token are the best overall, it does seem that IYT does have the generally weakest players.
Maybe you could do a ladder by personal invite?
I would help if you want. You take the top 50 players, and I will take the next fifty, or something like that, and send them personal invites.
LOL.. about the gammon players. That does seem to be the most popular game, as their tournaments get 100 or more players easily. How many ctive reversi players do you suppose we have here?
Count me in steve... I wonder why your response has been so low? Try posting on the debate boards about it...they seem to have lots of active players around, maybe we can drum up some support for manual ladder games
It was started here...I just posted on the un censored debate about it though, so as to keep this board only about reversi..
Steve, what do you think of a reversi ladder system?
BTW..where is the 'moves' list? Can i see how many moves people make, or myself, for thet matter? I have never been able to find that info... Thanks :)
Its true LJ..... I have begun playing in the reversi ladder over there. This site does seem to be becoming more and more a chat site... currently on my game page there are only 22 games waiting to be played, and none of them are games I even play! It has taken almost 3 weeks for my 9 reversi games to be accepted. It is sad, but this so called 'game site' has more people chating than actually playing games...hence the long game times some people, who chat more than play, have.
