Can someone tell me if bbw deleted his battleboats3 tournament?

It seems that Brainking had to be restored from an old backup, and now the tournament is back in the "tournament list" waiting for people to sign up!

I'm going to wait until Fencer is on to make sure this is how it is going to stay - and I will start the tournament again I guess?????

(So you may want to go and make sure you are still signed up for the tournament - hopefully I'll start it within 24 hours)

babken: As you can read from some of the other messages, tournaments that started yesterday have been "rolled" back.

You are still signed up for the tournament, and once the creator of the tournament is back on-line, the tournament will probable be restarted.

(What do you have to do: just wait!) :-)

Subject: The return of the Tournament for Dummies!
I've created (again) the second tournament for players rated BELOW 1500 and for unrated players (as long as you are not too good at a game.)

Who is this tournament for?

1. Is there a game you would like to learn - and don't want to get "killed" by the expert game players - this tournament is for you!

2. Is there a another game you like, but again do not want to get beat really bad by the great players - this tournament is for you!

If you are interested - SIGN UP HERE!

Tournament will start at the end of the month (August 2003)

I did not sign up for the #7 battleboat tourny. I tried to sign up for a backgammon tourney and it won't let me..

Subject: re: no sign up
The games from the Battleboats #7 - you have already played all the games from that tournament - and currently there is 1 game left in that section (both players looking for last boat) - and once that last game is done in the section, you are allowed to enter a new tournament.

If you do not want to wait for that last battleboat game to be complete, you can send a nice message to Fencer and ask him to allow you to enter your next tournament since you have finished all the games in the Battleboat #7 tournament.

Hope this helps!

I reported that the KM Backgammon Open would be closed on the 17th (that was yesterday), then went to close it and discovered what I've always suspected: I'd lose my nose if it wasn't attached!!! The tournament is STILL open for seating and closes on Aug 27. So far we have 40 signed up which means it's gonna be exciting. Please join us if Backgammon is your game or if you are impulsive. lol.

I have the following limits in a invite only tournament.
Minimum number of players: 4
Maximum number of players: unlimited
Maximum number of players per section: 5

Currently there are 6 people signed.
What happens to the odd number if the minimum of 4 is not met for two sections?
Also how does the tourney-bot sort who plays in what section? Is it by rating or some other form of black magic??? LOL

Here is the tourney addy:

unacanta: Minimum numbers of players is how many you need to start the tournament, which you have 6.
You have not got a maximum for the tounament only for each section.
The way is stands as the moment it should create 2 sections of 3 players :)

Subject: Under 1500 & unrated players Tournament
There is about a week left to sign up for the second "All games for dummies" - which is for players rated under 1500, and unrated players.... as long as the unrated players are not "too good".

This is the perfect tournament to try new & different games. You can play without too much worry about being "killed" right away by an expert player.

Tournament: SIGN UP HERE

Before the Gothic Chess Prize Tournament (the $250 one) it was completely random. Now, i think it does someting like this:

The highest rated player is put into section 1.
The next highest rated player into section 2.
etc, etc (as many sections as there are)

I'm not sure if it keeps going like that to fill all the spots, or if it's random at some point, but if you look at some recent tournaments, you'll notice the highest rated players are generally at the top of the section, and the lower rated players are at the bottom.

Subject: General rules for all tournaments
1) The tournament creator is the tournament ruler. He/she can apply any additional rules on the particular tournament. Whoever does not like it, can easily sign up for another tournament.
2) The site owner [myself] will never solve any problems or arguments among tournament creators and their players.

Subject: Re: General rules for all tournaments
I am curious as to what #1 means??? What are some possible additional rules that could be added? I only ask, because this sounds like it could add some interesting aspects to some tourneys..

Though, it seems in all fairness, these additional rules should be known right up front, from the beginning. It doesn't seem like it would be fair to add additional rules in the middle of a tourney..
Just curious..

24. August 2003, 20:24:31
Fencer 
Subject: Re: General rules for all tournaments
For example, the creator can decide that each chess game must start with accepted king's gambit or the tourmament is open for hungarian residents only :-) Of course, it should be specified at the tournament description section.

Grim Reaper 
Subject: New Gothic Chess Tournament
There was a great deal of cleanup that was performed on the DB recently. Any comments that were personal attacks, or items not particular to the spirit of this DB were removed.

To answer some of the speculation that certain players are avoiding others in the Gothic Chess arena, I created an invitational tournament where ALL top 10 players can participate. All players who are undefeated have been invited as well.

So, if you want to fight it out, come to the tournament you were all invited to. Fighting will take place over the board, and not in the discussion board.

maybe I was a bit blonde-squared to set the minimum players to 15 for
kinda exclusive variants - it was to avoid the impression it's just for a few ... :/

I shall wait some days yet - else I'd sadly have to close them

I had 1 loss in a tourney to a guy with 2043 in BKR..the winner of the section had 1 loss to, to a guy with 1720 in rating.
Strange that the winner had more points than me..my loss came against a higher rated player.
Not that i care...but would be fun to know the reason.

Gubbe: Which tournament? A persons rating does not really have anything to do with the points or the S/B in a tournament. (If I know the tournament, I can try to explain it a little better if you want.)
