Atila won the Turkish Checkers section of Checkers Aficionados Inaugural Tournament in dominating fashion.

Hats off, job well done.

Why doesn't a tournament page show the current score of the match instead of a useless dash?

coan.net:  Ahhh.  That's good to know.  I just checked by setting up a test tourney and it did give me the option of making all the positions the same random configuration or making each game different.  So I can assume that either selection will result in the same kind of tourney:  a different random position for each game.

Papa: Actually now that I think about it, I'm 100% sure that it is fixed - since I remember when Fencer introduced the game, the first tournament had all the same boards - and I quickly had Fencer delete that tournament & games - he fixed it so it would not even pay attention to that setting, and every one since that is random for each game - ignoring that setting.

trohat:  I hadn't even thought of that.  I just went with the default settings except for the time and vacations.  But BBW is probably right that the positions will all be different random configurations.

trohat: Even though that setting says that, for certain games (Like Frog Finder), it is NOT the same board - no matter what that setting says.

That setting is mostly for the random-placed chess games, the volcanoes on the espionage games - and black spaces on pah-tuh and such.

The Frog Finder should always be random from board to board.

Subject: Team Tournaments
A set of team tournaments is set to start in about a week.

After they start, I will make a set of new ones (to start around the 1st of the year.)

I have a few in mind, but if you have any ideas or suggestions on what kind of site team tournaments you would like to see - PLEASE send me a private message and let me know - any suggestions - games, time frames, team sizes, even tournament names. If you could send it in a private message, then if I don't use it this time - I can archive the suggestions and hopefully use them at some point.

aNiMaL.: I like Frog Finder

Plus after 12,000+ games, it is very even for player 1 and player 2

Red - won 6118 games (49.93% of games)
Blue - won 6109 games (49.85% of games)

You can't get much closer to an evenly matched game.

When running a tourney, which games offer more even chances for the most people? For example, if one were to run a prize tourney, chess would eliminate a lot of people (as would games like Pente etc) because of its highly skilled aspects. Games like Dice chess offer a bit more equality but perhaps are too much on the chance end of it. What do others think?

joshi tm: Co-op variant information: http://coan.net/sweeper2.html (Variant #2)

I would love to see that too. It would be the same game, but the strategy on how to play would be completely different - forcing players to take more chances and such.

HEY FENCER - Frog Finder is one of the top 10 games on the site (active games going) - The Co-op variant would make a VERY nice addition to the site.....

Subject: Fast Start - First 5 Tournaments are BACK!
OK, after a break of creating my "Fast Start - First 5" tournaments - you can stop asking me if I'm going to make them again - because I am: These are small tournaments - limit of 5 people. Once 5 sign up, they start. Simple enough.

Check out list here: coan.net's Open Tournament List


ALSO, I've created a special Birthday Tournament for myself:

coan.net BIRTHDAY FROG FINDER

Signup for that only only until October 19th - so sign up quick! Should be fun!
