ChEmIsT:
I agree, there should be a limit as to how many games one member can post so others have a chance too

New Tournament to sign up for

Oct 2018 Crowns of Checkers X

get the team and sign pleaseeee :)

Please sign up  Beach's games

A lot of the team tourneys only need 1 or 2 more teams to start, sign up to your teams, and let's get them rolling. :)

We need 2 more teams to join the Connect 6 site team tournament.  I have noticed that there are several teams in fellowships that only need 1 more player in order to enter.  Please check out the Team Tournaments and if you are able, join one of the teams in a fellowship that needs your help 

coan.net: I have the same problem as I did a year ago. I only have 4 players on 90% of my teams. So with 4 players I can sign near any team up. gammons and dice may have a better turnout however but the player pool is down to the lowest then its been for a decade

coan.net: 4 players per team will get things moving. 

I would like to see the idiots that start dozens of tournaments pull their horns in, or someone to do something about that.

SITE TEAM TOURNAMENTS - There are some out there that have not gotten enough teams - what is everyones thoughts - Just delete them?

I'll be back on-line soon, and I'll either delete or change the start date on them - and I'll create a new batch of site team tournaments - for at least the most popular games (so please share any suggestions for what you would like to see!)

Please sign up  Winter Games

1 year brainrook membership 

We now have FIVE Team Tournaments that are late starting due to insufficient teams
Very surprising considering Checkers, Five in Line & Battleboats Plus are among some of the more played games here on BrainKing
Please take a look and see if you can help out in anyway, there are plenty of Fellowships that could hopefully raise a team or two with a bit of help

happy birthday Fencer :)

We are down to my last 3 tournaments, :o( It's been great fun setting them up for the past 15 years...

Please stop spamming the tournament page. There are too many tournaments long overdue with not many players assigned.
Please only post tournaments that people want to play.

Come on Big and Small Bosses :) One more team :)

Just a suggestion here, but I’m thinking all team tournaments should be made with the parameters of 4 persons per team. As it stands now, we’re having a hard time finding 5 players per team. So until things pick up (if they pick up), I would suggest keeping the limit set to 4 people per team. 

rabbitoid: ok lol

Good Luck :)FLR: You are the one of the few exceptions I know of. You have close to 2000 games but you manage to play them at a good speed. I don't know how you do it but you manage. Impressive!

rabbitoid: Only paying members with Brain Rook or higher membership level can create any number of tournaments with various parameters to set - one or more game types (including a random game selection), time control, accessibility (public or private), tournament type (round robin, single elimination, ...), optional prize for the winner, etc.

Not sure where is the limit .... ;)

heavenrose: What's the point of joining anything now? all you find is a zillion tournaments proposing "all games", none of which will have more than 4 players. And you have a 99% chance playing against the same turtles who enter all games, have 3000 games and move in none. Not fun!

people if you dont want manny games then dont join that simple but sometimes people make to manny tournaments so i kinda agree on that part.

Clandestine 1: creation is already limited to rooks, so apparently that's no help. I'd prefer a fixed limit (small) of open, that is not yet started tournaments.

Always, supposing that Filip is willing to take up programming again.

Tournament creation based on membership status but a sensible limit as to how many tournaments one can create. Active tournaments should not count in the total tho as I can foresee some slow pokes tying everything up. 

I agree with Beach.l

My suggestion is one tournament per game per week. Maximum 30 days before tournament starts and 30 days after. And tournament must have unique name

I agreed with the fact about too many tournaments are created that not even me that i play so much here cant catch up... I like the idea about who can create tournaments based on membership status (lets say we black rooks can create truly as many as we want ! so is good incentive to have more want to get to that level ... i believe goldtoken does that even if they dont have black rook level but they have platinum which is very similar ) . Then use the vacations days as parameters : 35 days = 35 tournaments a year x each game i would also limit ! So a normal black rook can just create only 35 tournaments of battle boats for all year and no more ( of course that if he/she has all days of vacations still available so if someone has just 30 days left then can create just 30 tournaments of each one )
Create something for this in terms of $$$ so if someone wants to create more tournaments must give you some greens :)
limitation of course about when you can create a new tournament if that is even possible there are 2444 tournaments listed for now few are suppose to start in 6 months .. non sense ....and one of the creator of so many tournaments made barely 70 moves in one day ..all this is illogical ... why i want to create a tournament and then not even join it ???

Fencer: Hi Fencer,

I think the number of tournaments you can start should reflect your membership status. You could reach out to the site for possible ideas on this. I think some of the ideas Beach mentioned would be very helpful.

I’m going to take a closer look at the parameters you have set up for tournaments and see if I can come with additional suggestions.

Thank you!
Terry

Fencer:  for my 2 cents worth I think you should only be allowed to schedule new tournaments to start within say a 14 day waiting time,  also the 30 days to stay on tournament board after the start date is excessive, perhaps a maximum time it can stay on the board is perhaps 5 days after start date.  It drives me nuts to see tournaments posted for the next  2 years  and then see started tournaments stuck on page 1 of the board for an additional 30 days after start date.  

TerryS: Good idea. What limit do you suggest?
