October 2005, 01:35:54 Subject: Re: Antje: I've had a quick look at your recent games and I don't think you did time out. 9. October 2005, 14:19:08 Subject: Re: BG: Mine was a general comment not a reply to you.
Why do some people seem to take great delight in holding tournaments up? I don't know. Perhaps they want to see the other's results first. Perhaps they have too many games. I don't know a way of avoiding them other than restricting oneself to the fast tournaments, but even then... 9. October 2005, 14:07:08 I think the bottom line is, Bry's backgammon tournaments remain among the most popular on BK.
And of course anyone is entitled to promote their tournament here. And of course anyone is entitled to express their opinion. This is the Tournaments discussion board. As Bry says, though, you know the set up of the tournament before it starts. If you accept that, sign up. If you don't accept it, then don't sign up. There are plenty of other tournaments, or create your own with your preferences as to game time etc. 5. August 2005, 17:23:09 Subject: Re: Backoff: She cannae take no more captain.
Oh man, I'm going to have to moderate myself for being off topic. 5. August 2005, 15:22:47 Subject: Re: baddessi: But it could affect the space-time continuum.  21. July 2005, 11:12:29 Subject: Re: Timeout question Hrqls: 
Take it to General Chat or personal message please. 13. July 2005, 10:21:08 Subject: Re: Taking forever mrloupcity: Yes, back to your corner you go. Your last post was back in March. What are you thinking? This is tantamount to spamming!  29. May 2005, 22:11:45 Subject: Re: Opinions wanted Jules: I believe game messages are immediately blocked. 22. April 2005, 16:41:57 Nothing at all to be afraid of. The one thing pawns should be aware of though is that they are tied to that tournament until it's completion, unless they've completed all their games and are taking no further part in the tourney and they talk very nicely to Fencer who might release them. 22. April 2005, 01:20:41 Subject: Re: Re: pauloaguia: I did a search and found a previous post by BBW:
"For the 2 games per 2 players, players will need 10 slots open. Even if a player starts 6 or 8 games, they will still need 10 games slots open." 22. April 2005, 01:05:37 10. Please don't ask me why! BBW can explain but it is 10. 19. April 2005, 03:14:51 Subject: Re: volant: You'd do it as well, just to make Clay cough up! 18. April 2005, 13:40:38 Subject: Re: ClayNashvilleTn: If you held a tournament to catch the first moth that emerged from your wallet - THAT'S big! 18. April 2005, 13:32:18 It might be considered spamming, Clay. If it was a BIG tourney the mods there would probably allow it. On BK.com board too.
Generally though, the everyday sort of tourney is best kept here. 18. April 2005, 13:09:11 More like his Chinese cousin. 
No, NOBODY say it on a public board! 1. April 2005, 03:55:03 Congrats, Goonerg! At least the trophy cabinet isn't entirely bare this season! 17. January 2005, 01:04:18 Subject: Re: HELP!!!!!! Logistics Man: If it's a tournament then, being a pawn, you can't join another until that tournament is over. Being froglets it could take a while. I hope you're a young man. It's recommended that no-one over 30 starts a tournament involving froglets or anti-backgammon.
If you do want to join another tourney then resign your froglet games and ask Fencer (nicely) to remove you from that tourney. 24. December 2004, 10:16:35 Roll up, guys - Skyking has backgammon among the games in his Game Closet party! 3. December 2004, 12:55:25 MM: We had a problem in 'Wombats' recently. We wanted to enter a team but the big boss, cariad, was in hospital and the deadline was fast approaching. rhiannon started her own fellowship and invited all the members of 'Wombats' so that we could get a team together.
As it turned out cariad was able to enter a 'Wombats' team and rhiannon another team, so in effect 'Wombats' had two teams. Of course, that isn't practical for a large fellowship but the option of someone creating a new fellowship just to enter a tourney is there. 30. November 2004, 14:35:29 Subject: Re: Prize Tournaments Probably best to send the money now.
Fencer won't start the tournament until the prize has been paid for anyway. 14. November 2004, 19:48:18 I don't know about you, Steve, but I think BBW is a god in wolf's clothing. He has the wisdom of Solomon. We are soooo lucky to have him here. :D 14. November 2004, 05:25:24 Subject: Re: Extra! Extra! Sorry, ugh. I swooned after the second post - I was sooo excited! 14. November 2004, 04:15:38 Fast Start - First 5 to sign - Backgammon #562 -318 days 4 hours 3 BIG BAD WOLF
-318 days? Is this a record? :) 11. November 2004, 10:14:32 UE: bwild has nothing to apologise for. He was just commenting on a topic raised by your post.
To clarify matters for pawns buying a membership. If you were brought to the site by another player (a member) you can add their ref no. in the box provided on the purchase page. These 'brains' can be collected and used to buy memberships (maybe items from the gift shop). DON'T be bullied or coerced into donating these 'brains' to just anyone - whatever they purport to be offering. They are essentially a 'reward' for introducing a paying member to the site. Steve: Have you tried giving Fencer a nudge about your brains? I mean, he's getting on a bit now and the old memory isn't what it was. :D 6. November 2004, 23:42:43 Stevie, I've put you on 'hide' for a while.
LongJohn, I've put you on 'hide' and banned you for a while. 6. November 2004, 19:23:13 At the moment two people are grateful for the auto-vacation - panda and cariad.
Both were admitted to hospital recently - one in Greece, one in Wales. Neither knew they were going to be away for quite so long so didn't set vacation days. I don't know their passwords so I can't go into their accounts and set vacation days instead. BUT - both will be back playing next week. 6. November 2004, 11:19:04 ...and 12 pints of Boddingtons followed by a curry. :D 5. November 2004, 18:37:19 I think bwild meant 4oz = a quarter pound (lb), Scarlet. 4. November 2004, 00:39:29 Fencer might reconsider now that the methods of payment have changed a bit. 4. November 2004, 00:05:23 I believe something similar was suggested months ago but I think Fencer stated it was not economically viable at that time due to PayPal's charges. 27. October 2004, 01:51:52 No harm done, UE. I was just pulling BBW's leg.
I'm not that strict as not to allow a few posts of good-humoured banter occcassionally - heck, I'm one of the culprits! 26. October 2004, 10:00:05 Sorry, BBW, I'm leaving that post by UE, although off-topic. The embarrassment content alone is priceless!
Now enough of the love-in and back to tournaments. :) 14. October 2004, 13:23:52 Subject: Team Tournaments Subtle, Fencer, subtle... :Þ 9. October 2004, 18:07:02 LongJohn: 'Prize' tournaments without a prize will not be started. (see Fencer's post about 40 posts down the page.) 9. October 2004, 09:20:53 Congrats mrloup!
The 5 player tournaments that BBW creates are legitimate and valid tournaments and a lot of fun. To win one isn't easy as they attract the top players. Long may they continue. 20. September 2004, 10:51:14 Subject: LongJohn When I moderate a post of yours, you do NOT go back and restore it to virtually it's original state.
I've now removed the post completely and have banned you from posting for a couple of days. 20. September 2004, 02:12:08 Absolutely painless, thanks Steve. Sorry...were you offering to kiss it better? I warned you about that before! :D 20. September 2004, 01:37:41 Subject: LongJohn LJ: I have moderated your post as I believe it contained 'an implicit attack that might lead to verbal sparring'. 10. August 2004, 10:07:34 Thanks. The backgammon tourney is looking very close and hard-fought! 10. August 2004, 10:01:48 Subject: Team tournies Fencer: In the event of teams being level on points and games won/lost, do both teams progress to the next round or does some other determining factor come into play? 30. July 2004, 11:00:47 Subject: Re: knights No, you haven't been conned rebelyell, that's still the rule. Knights can join ONE team tournament at a time.
Knights can only join one tournament of a game type at a time. But knights can play in a team tournament (backgammon for example) and also play in a normal backgammon tournament at the same time so it is possible to play in two tournaments of the same type that way. << < 1 2 > >> |
