MadMonkey: funny how we learn of these things. I’ve been here since the starting year of BK and never knew about this loophole. I too heard about brains being scammed but never knew how (or even why). Like Carpe, I’m signed up and playing in one of those tournaments and also don’t have any “Brains”. 

Carpe Diem: I agree, i had heard people talk about the Brains issues, but never thought about it much

Thanks for the responses MM & earl, that's very helpful. I would've asked in the tourney chat, but I've rarely seen much chat going on in any tourney, and there wasn't in that one. But I think I have all the answers I need, and I got a bonus one about the "Brains scam" that I've heard a little about but never understood until now. :)

MadMonkey: Yep. I don't think Brains can be used for anything any more, unless there is a way to tell which ones are "legal" and which aren't.

earldrake1: Is that for real...??
I wonder why Fencer hasn't stopped that, unless Brains can not be used for anything any more, then it wouldn't matter I guess...

Oh, yes.... I just looked and the one I signed up for earlier has given me 100 Brains as I left again.....

Carpe Diem: and now quit the tourney, and BK "refunds" the 1000 Brains back into your account. That is how everyone has been getting additional Brains into their accounts.

Carpe Diem: hmmmm a very good question.... I have just tried to join Brains tourney (whilst i have no brainking Brains) and it allowed me as well. I am sure it never used to. It must be a bug in the system i guess.

As for what happens in your tourney, I am guessing that the 1st prize will still be 100% of what players paid to enter (if they did of course).
It does say Current status of prizes: 1: 5000 Brains, 2: 0 Brains, 3: 0 Brains , so it would suggest it thinks you have paid.....

Can you not mention it in the tournament chat and see…? Or ask LEGENDA as it is there tourney

Somehow I've been able to join a tournament with a 1,000 brain entry fee, and I have no brains. Well, I like to think I do, but not Brainking brains - unless I acquired some without realizing it. I wasn't even aware it had an entry fee. So, I guess I'm wondering what happens next.

beach: Oh really ... i guess i must be blocked as well .... most odd

MadMonkey:  he has had me blocked for months on signing up for any of his tournaments

_Road Runner___: I get the same with your Tournament

'The creator does not allow you to sign up for this tournament.'

beach: Im not
'The creator does not allow you to sign up for this tournament.'

Tournaments with 1000 brain entrance fees? Players with over 50,000 brains? The cheating is insane here.

everyone welcome to play  the end of 2020

_Road Runner___: Your going to have to depend on the pawns to get this to play.

Marshmud:
Yeah sorry its 7 games

Almost a third of the way there
128 Player Backgammon

Aganju: but the tourney won’t start until there are 128 players. I don’t know if there are still 128 active players here, everyone will need to sign up to get this one going.

Marshmud: because by the time you get to the end everyone else will have quit or died.  JK

Marshmud: there are only 40 players.

To all Brainking players and their families Merry xmas and hopefully a better New year for all !

Clandestine 1:my apologies, I thought you meant it was a 4 win match. I just read the parameters. 

_Road Runner___: single elimination? This tournament could very well last 20 years.

If you are a pawn it is recommend you wait a couple months until you join as it will tie you to this game for a long time.

jodeldiplom:

Hello BK players, I have not had any response from Fencer to pay for the prize tournaments I created or the prize tournaments that Marshmud and I were going to create. I have deleted the pawn tournament as there was no interest. I kept the Prize tournament for members as I’m hoping that Fencer will get back to me before Christmas. If not, I will also have to delete that tournament as it will not be able to start until the money is paid.  

jodeldiplom: Back after 2 years and the tournament board is still full of spam.

Wakey Wakey Everyone Well, to all the Big (and little) Bosses & Team Captains really...
