Emne: Re: New Tournament - Spider Line4

Thanks Debi and Molly..It has been on a 2 min refresh. Today it is a little better. Must be the weather. lol 37F this morning in Florida. For us thats cold..
I do get the white showing up quite a bit. Especially at G/T. I have called Msn for many things, but this they haven't been able to correct. I have used the webtv reload and it comes back, usually.

26. Januar 2003, 00:03:01

Emne: thank you molly....

for having more moves than me now your name is stuck on the main page haha....i was a close second haha

26. Januar 2003, 00:08:41

Emne: Fencer...

If there is a tournament with a rating restriction, and you are currently above the lower limit, but by the time it starts your rating is below the lower limit. Will you still be able to play? (same applies for upper limit)
Thanks!

~MOLLY~

you are very welcome eddie, and if you wouldn't have kept sending your games back to me, I wouldn't have made it there :)

26. Januar 2003, 08:02:31

Kevin: The restriction is currently applied only when you want to sign up [the sign up link will appear for you or not]. Once you are in, it is not considered.
Should I improve it?

Emne: First tourney

Fencer...I just won my first round in the First Brain King Tourney in Anti Reversi...well waiting for my opponent from the other game...thought I should check something out...do I have to have a certain number of spaces free to play in the next round???Or am I still able to play if I have 20 games going??? Just want to make sure:)

26. Januar 2003, 17:30:59

Emne: Re: First tourney

Emma: The restriction is applied for the first round only. You will be able to play the second round :-)

Emne: Re: First tourney

thank you very much...was worrying about that:)

26. Januar 2003, 21:15:04

Emne: Re:

No, i think it is good this way. Just checking :-)

Emne: Backgammon Race Tourny

Hi everyone. I have set up a backgammon Race tournament, sign up and have some fun! :-)

Bry

Emne: tourneys

Fencer, Can you arrange something where as well as being able to start a tourney, we can adjust the settings within it, for example, - you can set the group stages so the top two players qualify from each group, meaning more of a chance for players who are unfortunate and are drawn with a top player in their group?. It would make it more interesting for the players in the group stages, even if they lose their first two games against the aforementioned opponent knowing they could still qualify.
Cheers,
Bry.

27. Januar 2003, 19:16:24

Bry

Emne: 5 in a line

There is a tourney for players with 1600 and above ratings - the "Premier" 5 in a line tourney. If you are good enough, please can you sign up, so it is a great tourney.
Cheers,

Bry.

Bry: This and more improvements are in a development process :-)

fantastic..... ;-)

Why can't I start my 6x6 Tourney? I'm stuck!

28. Januar 2003, 02:55:50

Emne: Re:

speedy 6 by 6? one

28. Januar 2003, 03:04:28

Emne: Re:

Yep!

28. Januar 2003, 03:08:42

Emne: Re:

I see it ended the 24th...did ya close it?

28. Januar 2003, 03:09:43

once ya close it goonerg it should have gone to the tourney waiting to be started list...then ya start it from there..

28. Januar 2003, 03:10:49

Emne: Re:

I have tried closing it, but it just stays there! Darn it!

28. Januar 2003, 03:14:55

Emne: Re:

maybe its a bug.....squash it...haha

28. Januar 2003, 03:16:14

Emne: Re:

:) I will have to wait for Fencer! I hope I'm not missing something simple!

28. Januar 2003, 06:26:22

Emne: tournaments

how about the option to have a personalised message to send to all players in your tournament when it starts?

28. Januar 2003, 06:33:43

And what about having the ability to select exactly what levels may join a tournament, instead of just a minimum (similar to the way you can do when sending out an open invite). That way for the prize tournaments, for example, it can be restricted to just pawns.

28. Januar 2003, 07:52:02

Goonerg: Oops! There is some minor error. Please wait, I'll fix it :-)
Kevin: Yes, similar to new game definitions. I'll do it.

28. Januar 2003, 07:54:50

Goonerg: I've found it! Before the fix is active, please remove the quote mark (') from your tournament name :-)

28. Januar 2003, 15:46:35

Emne: Re:

Does that mean there should be no quotes in any of the tournament names?

28. Januar 2003, 19:08:47

Kevin: Of course the quotes are allowed. This little bug will be fixed within several hours.

28. Januar 2003, 19:32:25

Emne: Re:

Cheers Fencer, will do!

29. Januar 2003, 21:16:08

Emne: Spider Line4

Just a reminder, your time is running out to sign up for my first tournament! It will start on February 1st.

How do I find out the tourney I signed up for, I thought I signed up for a tourney, but it has allready started and my name is not on it

30. Januar 2003, 18:31:09

Rose

Emne: Re:

Imacarrot either you have too many games going and dont hve the room for the tourney or you are already in a tourney of the same game type. Upgrade and join in all the tournies you want with no limits!!

30. Januar 2003, 18:44:46

Imacarrot

OK that makes sense, I think I went down to 4 at some point b4 it started

31. Januar 2003, 23:37:55

Uil

Emne: tournament entry

as a brain knight i can not enter a tournament because i am already playing in an other tournemant of the same kind. so far i understand, but if i have completed all my games in that other tournament i still can not enter an other tournament. So i am the victim of the slow play of other players. Is that right? I have completed that tournament!

1. Februar 2003, 12:21:14

Uil: Which tournament is it?

4. Februar 2003, 00:40:03

Emne: help

I just started another tournament, and set the date as the 7th for start, when i created it, it said signups close on the 8th, i checked it and also tried to change the signup to the 8th, then when saved it said signups closed on the 9th....any ideas??

4. Februar 2003, 05:35:22

Emne: Re: help

i had the same problem...all i could come up with was that the time you enter is GMT, and it converts that to your local time.

4. Februar 2003, 06:52:05

Emne: Re: help

yes I wondered at that, but my first couple of tournys were fine, perhaps its part of the bug

4. Februar 2003, 08:49:29

Emne: Start-ups

Shouldn't some tourneys have started by now, like Manicotti's Reversi 6x6 (entries finished 1st Feb)?

4. Februar 2003, 14:53:29

Rose

Emne: Re: Start-ups

Manicotti would love to have started that tourney FEB1 however she hasnt been able to access this site at all since Jan 28!! Neither has her co partner in the tourney Eddie Spaghetti.
They are more frusterated then we are.. One is on a PC other is on WebTv Wish I knew how to get them access back in here!!!
They arent the only paying members who cant gain access back in to the site either....

4. Februar 2003, 16:12:15

If you want to, I can start that tournament myself. It is really strange that only they cannot access this site. I will make more tests.

4. Februar 2003, 17:08:45

Rose

Emne: Re:

I will ask Molly if she wants you to start it. Likely she does

4. Februar 2003, 17:14:20

Rose

Emne: Re:

Fencer do you want me to get Eddie who is on a PC to do a traceroute for brainking? would it help if he did that?

4. Februar 2003, 17:17:15

Rose: Yes, why not, we can try everything.

4. Februar 2003, 17:20:09

harley

Fencer, you'd only be creating more work for yourself if you started the tournaments, everyone is timing out and will no doubt ask for the game to be started again once the problems are sorted. I'm having a lot of problems myself, yesterday I spent hours trying to get in and for my efforts managed to move in only 8 games! But I'm just keeping from a timeout in my games. Other people aren't so lucky! We know you're trying your best but starting tournaments will only add to everyones load at this point.

4. Februar 2003, 18:47:17

hrlqns: I've already set "holidays" for monday-wednesday of this week and I will probably extend them. Nobody will time out.
