April 2005, 12:07:27 Subject: bkr-maximum hi all. me also i signed up for a game with max-bkr. the problem were that during the tournament i got 200 points over the BKR-maximum. so........ :-)))) 28. April 2005, 08:28:38 Subject: Re: furbster: i thought tournaments already kicked players out who are too high ?
i couldnt join some tournaments because my bkr was either too high or too low i am not sure though if thats just at the moment when i sign up .. or also when the tournament actually starts what happens if a players raises above (or drops below) the set bkr limits during the tournament ? should the player be removed as well ? ;) 28. April 2005, 08:26:57 Subject: Re: 1 THE HIT MAN: the tournaments starting time arent checcked every minute, so it can show minus a couple of minutes before it starts .. i think this wont be longer than 10 minutes though (i think the starting times are checked every 10 minutes) 28. April 2005, 03:52:39 Subject: MY TOURNAMENTS Sorry.But in my Tournaments if you don;t enter in 10 games or more you are going to be removed.Because they are most games WON TOURNAMENTS with prizes.Hopefully this is going to resolve the problems.Due to all BKR ratings 28.

April 2005, 00:05:31 Subject: Re: 1 harley: Yes The jobs yours.send out 100 invites,and kick out the ones that are over BKR at start of tournament ok 28. April 2005, 00:00:25  yeh but that would take him ages, especially if he has all games, + players could still go above the suggested rating 27. April 2005, 23:58:39 Subject: Re: 1 Modified by harley (27. April 2005, 23:59:03)  THE HIT MAN: You could make it invitation only, so only people you invite can join. 27. April 2005, 23:54:22  but if they are over your maximum limit then they cant join the tournament 27. April 2005, 23:52:52 Subject: 1 Sence I have had tournaments, I:ve been watching them.I"ve seen ppl sigh in when there is minus time showing left on them.That is going to be very hard for me to control my next tournament. 27. April 2005, 23:52:28 Subject: Re: furbster: I agree, the system should not let you sign up if you are over 1500 (or whatever the limit is) and it should check again when it starts. This should be done automatically. 27. April 2005, 23:42:35 Subject: Re: furbster: yes I"ve seen that to ,but I can"t sigh up 27. April 2005, 23:38:41 Subject: Re: BIG BAD WOLF: I like that way of handling it. If a player is normally just under 1500 and happens to win three games in a row right before the tournament, an automatic system would knock him out even though he may be back under 1500 after three more games. 27. April 2005, 23:35:51  I know for any of my "tournament for dummies" for players rated 1500 or below, about a day or so before the tournament starts, I actually go through manually and kick out anyone who is way above 1500. (If someone now has 1525 or something close I usually let them stay - but if it's like 1700, then they are gone.)
But even then, some are unrated and even within hours of it starting they can shot from unrated to 2100. 27. April 2005, 23:34:17 Subject: Re: 1 Bry: Dang..............all this time I thought they just kept you around for your quick finger! You be too smart!  27. April 2005, 23:32:07 yeh i dont know if it'd be possible, but what about autokicking people out of tourneys who are to high at sign ups? obviosuly not teh unrated players 27. April 2005, 23:30:36 Subject: Re: 1 THE HIT MAN: If a tournament is set at say 1500BKR and below to sign up, a player can only sign up who is 1500 and below. However if that tournament starts weeks later, and that player has moved to 2000, they will still be included. It's up to the creator of the tournament to remove anyone from the tournament before it starts if they are over 1500.
In addition, if you let unrated players sign up, after 4 completed games they may also be over 1500 BKR. I think that explains it. 27. April 2005, 23:12:40 Subject: 1 Fencer? What is this over rated players,playing in tournaments that have a specifed BKR rating? 26. April 2005, 16:44:46 Subject: Pro Five in Line congratulations to Berusik for winning the Producing Five Lines tournament 26. April 2005, 02:03:49 Subject: Invitation to:  Another Rock Pool Shuffle

Pente and more Pente - and then some more (Pente) 24. April 2005, 20:46:23 Subject: Re: IYT... I just gave you the answer below about IYT:
If the rounds at IYT go for a bit, and someone asks the owner there to end the tournament instead of starting new rounds, it is done. Otherwise, the computer there will continue to make new rounds forever. 24. April 2005, 20:13:02 Subject: Re: IYT... Thad: Nobody accused anybody of anything Thad, chill.
http://www.itsyourturn.com/pp?tourngametype&id=348&type=2 And maybe we all can agree we don't have the answer?  24. April 2005, 18:44:35 Subject: Re: hyper team tourney  Bry: Yes because names of deleted fellowships are not stored elsewhere. 24. April 2005, 18:38:09 Subject: Re: hyper team tourney Fencer: but still under *deleted fellowship* next to their team? 24. April 2005, 18:36:49 Subject: Re: hyper team tourney Bry: The team (the group of users) will play in the next round. 24. April 2005, 18:30:50 Subject: Re: hyper team tourney Fencer: what would happen if team who's fellowship has been deleted won the group and went through to the next round? 24. April 2005, 15:53:23 ah ok, thanks... just wondered as some dont seem to be going very fast lol 24. April 2005, 15:51:45 Subject: Re: hyper team tourney furbster: Even if some fellowships are deleted, all games still continue. 24. April 2005, 15:38:15 Subject: hyper team tourney Is it just me, or in the hyper team tourney currently running, do the games in which the two fellowships that have been deleted, seem to not be continuing? 24. April 2005, 14:47:59 Subject: Re: Bry: i hope so \o go team backgammon o/
reversi 6x6 would be cool to 24. April 2005, 13:41:37 Subject: Beginners Tablut (event 2) The second Beginners Tablut tournament starts tomorrow, those who have never tried it, read the rules and sign up! 24. April 2005, 09:37:38 Fencer: Can you create a new Team Tournament for Backgammon to start signing up to please- 10 players per team?? 24. April 2005, 07:14:45 Subject: Re: IYT... SunFire: If the rounds at IYT go for a bit, and someone asks the owner there to end the tournament instead of starting new rounds, it is done. Otherwise, the computer there will continue to make new rounds forever.
Your welcome. 24. April 2005, 07:11:04 Subject: Re: IYT... Modified by Thad (24. April 2005, 07:12:02) SunFire: BeaverBoy brought it up, then he and shagglbrox accused me of being wrong. Obviously my last post proved that I was right. But perhaps we can close the book on IYT now.
The bottom line is that ties are ok, if a game, match, or tournament is played to a tie, but not when the tying players never face each other. Also, if a tournament is co-won, there should be something indicating so. 24. April 2005, 07:05:37 Subject: Re: IYT... Thad: Who cares about the tournaments in Its Your Turn.
 24. April 2005, 07:01:48 Subject: Re: IYT... Modified by Thad (24. April 2005, 07:02:27) You are all wrong. There have been ties there in the past as I have said. Look at Ilurath's profile:
>http://itsyourturn.com/iyt.dll?userprofile?userid=15200000661830 He "won" the August 2002 Main #1 Tournament in pente. Now look at Dmitri King's profile: >http://itsyourturn.com/iyt.dll?userprofile?userid=15200000385955 He also "won" the same tournament! The standings at the end of the 'final' round are here: >http://itsyourturn.com/iyt.dll?tourn_showplayers?id=265&gmtypeid=42&r=9&type=2&st=1&range=10 I don't care what the rules at IYT say, they are obviously not correct. 24. April 2005, 06:56:18 Subject: Re: Tournaments BIG BAD WOLF: Thank you, now I know how it works.  24. April 2005, 06:53:30 Subject: Re: Tournaments SunFire: All 3 of you were awarded a win since you all tied.
http://brainking.com/en/Tournaments?trg=8241&tri=37773 24. April 2005, 06:49:30 Subject: Re: Tournaments Thad: It was Quickie HyperBack 1
and we all had 1.0 for S-B points. 24. April 2005, 06:37:35 Subject: Re: IYT... Modified by shagglbrox (24. April 2005, 06:39:58) Thad: No offense Thad, but the rules at IYT state there can be ties for sections, but:
"When all games in all sections are completed, the players who scored highest in their sections advance to the next round, where they are placed in new sections. The process repeats until there is a single champion for each game type within a tournament." There was a Keryo tourney I saw there went 10 rounds, the last 6 or 7 or which were between just 3 guys, but a winner finally emerged. Ask "Steve (who sometimes waits until round 10 to lose)" Anyway, who cares, that's IYT - I agree with your point though, ties suck - maybe Fencer could allow an option (like time limit options) to set whether a tourney can end in a tie or not? 24. April 2005, 06:29:22 Subject: Re: Tournaments SunFire: I doubt you won because your BKR was lowest. You probably were awarded the win because your S-B score was highest. Which tournament was it? 24. April 2005, 04:45:39 Subject: Tournaments Some tournaments end in a tie but I think there is always a winner.
I was in one that just ended and it was a three way tie but because I had the lowest BKR of all of us it gave me the win of the tournament :o)  << < 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 182 183 > >> |
