Top 10% Faster Backgammoners for 2006-05

SafariGal: I think Fencer was already thinking about doing this. Just don't think it is high on his list right now.

BIG BAD WOLF: in that case, if pawns are not eligible to create, maybe all his should be deleted? It seems the only tournaments advertised on the main page are his

SafariGal: yea, the person created A LOT of tournaments before their membership ran out - but they were all created when they were a rook before their membership ran out.

BIG BAD WOLF: there are a lot of them, 3 pages I think still not started

SafariGal: Pawns can not create tournaments.

Those tournaments were made by a rook, who had since let their membership drop down to a pawn.

This link here shows a pawn has created so many tournaments I keep seeing them on the main page

http://brainking.com/en/Tournaments?trnst=0&u=15186

How do pawns create?

Marfitalu: ok i play,paco ordoñez

Harrold: First thing you need to do is become a brain rook. (see paid memberships). Then you can create a tourney.

How do I start a tournament

To Miro007 on winning A WHAM BAMS #6 Battle boats tournament.

last minute xeribolus birthday tournament

Fencer: Thats such a good idea, it also irritates me a bit that i only ever see certain players tournements advertised all the time.

Fencer:

tiv noi: Good idea, maybe I'll add a special rule to the tournament creation system.

tiv noi: I removed the tourament tips because all that was ever coming up were her tournies as well. I hope they are all deleted. Are there still over a years worth that she set up?

as MysticRiver's membership will expire tomorrow, will the over 200 tournaments created by her be deleted? it would really enhance the tournament tip which now says Race For The Gold Backgammon 2100+ 8 Players (Backgammon) most of the time.

Must be or you'd sign up for Amazing Grace #4 (by UGO) Dark Battleboats

All games, 5 players, fast, fun

Los Alamos Chess - 1 player needed
Pahtum, Reversi 8x8, Dark Chess, Pente, Czech Checkers - 2 players needed

BIG BAD WOLF: true. thank you Wolf.

ustica tnp: Looks like a bug with that saying that it is still running - But that is not stopping you from joining anything else.

Pawns are limited to 1 tournament total, and you are still in many others which are still running.

why this says run "http://brainking.com/en/Tournaments?trg=2060&tri=6803"
and i don t have games.and becose this i can t join any tourn..?

small ambiguous
3 spots left

Hrqls: It shouldn't be a problem with random games. Wouldn't reseeding the players for the next round be easy enough to do? Or just leave it seeded as it was in the first round and continue the pairings based on the first round seeding?

Way to to go sarok on an awesome final to win the reversi 8x8 in the q107 club members tournanament.

Mike.:o)

Dark Battleboats name of tourney GB 3 or G8 3 Everyone welcome

MidnightMcMedic:

BossLady: It will automatically start in just a little bit.

New tourneys to sign up for at The Sunshine Club!

I must have gotten lost in the thread. I thought you guys were asking for a feature to the tournaments. Sorry, carry on with the friendly discussion

MidnightMcMedic: I was under the impression that feature requests or discussions about something that has its own board IE 'tournaments' or 'backgammon' should be brought to that board and not to the 'general' feature requests?

MidnightMcMedic: nah .. its not a feature request .. just a discussion about how the tournaments are done

we can take it to another board though if you want, 'brainking' or 'general chat' or any fellowships board :)

Marfitalu: but how is are the players seeded when they are norated ?

Maybe this should be taken to the Feature Requests board?

Marfitalu: is there used 'no average' at the moment ? or is there used the rating at which everyone starts ? (which is 1300 ? or 1500 ? or .. ?)

gambler104: *nod* i prefer that type of seeding as well

the problem with random game types though is that you dont know the ranking of the player, so you cant base the seeding on the ranking

(thanks for posting the way of seeding though, i forgot i asked about that :) i didnt know it was different per game type)

gambler104: The system of seeding a tournament based on the rankings for a single elimination tournament is based on the premise that the final match should be against the number 1 and number 2 rated players. The groupings are done in such a way that this will happen if the higher rated (lower numbered seed) will always win their match in the early rounds. If the lower rated player upsets the higher seed, then they get to carry on in that person's place. They earned it, right?
