All 5 gammon games starting again, Just Click Here

on winning the ArtfulDodger Backgammon tourney!

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. TNP

Tomorrow is the last day to sign up for this Super Bowl of checker tournaments. It's your chance to play the finest players on Brain King. Anyone can win but at the very least you stand to learn something about this great game.

Thank you for the information. I'm new here and didn't know you could only enter one tournie at a time..Thanks again..

Starts in 2 days and we have 2 openings. Strap on your helmets for we have the best checker players on the site ready to go. There is no restriction on who can play but there are 7 players entered rated above 2000. Message me for an invite.

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

Deadline is August 17, just two days away! We have 38 participants so far which already makes a whopping good tournament but late-comers are welcome so please sign up if you get the urge. TNP

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)

Thanks again Fencer

I've just started the second round.

The Spring 2003 open Pente-Keryo Pente championship (Pente),its finished in all sections, but Gary Barnes didnt login since 2aug, Fencer can you help to continue teh tournament??

Please read Server News.

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!) :-)

ok thx...im still signed up

I'm playing on open bg championship No.5,unfortunately I can't see them on the main page,please let me know,what I must do.

Yea, Currently #38 of my "Fast start Backgammon" tournament is up now - and I know I was at least at 40... if not #41 yesterday... :-) Plus all my posts are gone, etc.... :-(

I re-started the KM Battleboat tournament because it was put back too.

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)

BBW (BIG BAD WOLF)

Can someone tell me if bbw deleted his battleboats3 tournament?

HURRY!!!! Have FUN in the SPIDERS WEB TOURNY!!! Starts Tues 12th August..all welcome!! :)

One week away from the Big Bash! 35 have already signed up and this promises to be a Killer of a Backgammon tournament. Get a seat while you can. And remember to Take No Prisoners!

Also the game time limit was suspended for a while. If the 4 weeks he took to move occured during this time it would explain how it happened. Along with vacation days :o)

There wouldn't have been any "behind the scenes deals" going on. The person probably used his/her vacation days. All levels get some, the higher your membership though, the more you can use.

Damian: Done. Try to sign up.

My understanding Damian is that if you are technically OUT of this tournament then you can send a message to Fencer and he will enable you to join another one!

I could be mistaken, but it is worth a shot. i seem to remember reading it on a previous posting!!

My part in a K-P Tourney has been over for 5 weeks. Two players are left, and moving slowly. I am at the mercy of these players and can not join a tourney that is giving away a free 6 month membership open only to pawns without memberships.
AT the rate that single last game is going, I will miss the signup date of this new tourney, since I am prevented from joining it until the old tourney is over. Additionally, one -player was allowed for reasons beyond my understanding since no one explained it, to delay his move for 4 weeks despite the time to move being 6 days! So with all these behind the scenes deals going on, I will miss the signup deadline/time for this new tourey for Pawns only! How is this right?

are we done?????

drgnrdr for winning the ArtfulDodger's Backgammon Tourney U1800:) !!!

I don't like limiting ratings... I think everyone should play! :)

I'd go for that, Zucan. I've not played for ages. My rating is pretty low though, so I couldn't join if you set the rating too high!

Would there be any interest for a really fast atomic chess tournament? Or is pretty much everyone favor the slower paced tourneys?

Sign UP for the VERY FAST "Small Pente", everybody who loves the fast games this is the tourney :)

Thanks and regards to all

Have FUN in the SPIDERS WEB TOURNY!!! :)

Its starts on Monday 11 August & its open to everyone of all abilities..the more the merrier!

Sorry for the tardiness on getting the tournament going; but, the KM Parachute Checkers Tournament is now officially underway.

Just one day left to sign up for the Anti checker tournament of tournaments! It promises to be a Killer! :)

Thanks Dano, that makes sense. I hadn't considered that.

I believe to remember that the 'minimum players' restriction
counts only for the total amount of players in a tourney ...
i.e. not for the subgroups required to be generated now ... ~*~

I am running a Loop chess tournament (Let's Get Loopy AD's Loop Chess #2) with a limit of 6. There are 7 joined now. I am assuming that with the limit of six that once I start the tourney it will divide into sections of no more than six. I have it set up this way:
Minimum number of players: 4
Maximum number of players: unlimited
Maximum number of players per section: 6

Does this mean I need at least 8 (or 12 ) so that sections meet the no less than 4 criteria?

This is shaping up to be a fine tournament indeed. 30 have signed up so far and seats are available. Deadline is Aug 27. Join us as we discover who really IS the Backgammon champ. TNP

we need 2 player for five in line under 1600bkr at jasons games room hope this will help me and jason
