Right now only Fencer can - basicly because it is still being "tested" and "programmed"

Once things are working, Team Captains/BIG BOSSES should be able to create their own team tournaments.

In a tournament the ultimate goal is to win. It is not to have fun. Fun is mostly a side effect, and for many competitions there is very little fun involved.

There are many ways to have fun on this site. Tournaments are generally not one of them. Unless the description states that it is a tournament for fun only.

Also, I dont think most people realize what they are getting into when they play a 7 day or 30 day tournament, as far as time commitement goes. Especially newer members and pawns. Maybe an overall time guestimate could be included with the move time limit. ie, Backgammon tournament 30 day limit (4.9 years/game) or somwething like that. If I can only play in one backgammon game at a time, I may reconsider this tournament, when I see it spelled out that way.

LongJohn: Pawns will be allowed to post here until it gets to the way it got on BK 1.0 months ago. As of yet no one has said anything wrong, it is a discussion.

If anyone wants to discuss about any subject other than Tournaments, then take it to the General Board please.

LJ - So a pawn post a different opinion then yours and you want to ban pawns from posting here?

Nice, but the option of not letting pawns post here should probable only be used when a pawn(s) and abusing the system, not just posting things that you/anyone disagrees with.

What difference does it make if someone has played the game before to how long they should have for each move? Members of customer service follow the same time limits as everyone else, and why should it be otherwise?

Competition is not the opposite of fun.

Subjekt: Re:
Some people cannot access the internet on weekends, very true.

But neither will they time out on a weekend as long as it is a 3 day or more limit. From my experience the people who access the internet from work are the ones who play the most, and generally dont ever hold things up.


I agree with Stevie again.... A tournament is for competition, and fun too, but mostly for competition, to find out the best of the best. Someone playing in a tournament, when they have never even played the game before, and then hold up that tournament because the rules allow them to move at the last minute every time, is simply not right, and especially so when they are a member of customer service. They should first and foremost be concerned with the paying customers whom they supposedly serve, and for their enjoyment over their own.

Why not start a tournament that is just for fun, and not for competition, if thats what they want???

tournaments are tournaments, if they want to play fun games, play normal ones :o)

I disagree. Lots of people cannot access internet during weekends.

3. července 2004, 20:08:14

I think all tournaments should forget about weekends etc

IMupChucKing: There was no conspiracy, secret plans or whatsoever. The tournament (with all its parameters) was created by Linda, I've just added a payment form to the tournament page top. Everybody who signed up for the tournament knew exactly how the tournaments work, there was no hidden information.
I agree that 30 day tournaments are a problem for some users (I don't say "all users" because I know many people who don't care about days per move and play just for fun, even tournament games). I plan to add a support for fast tournaments where no weekend or vacation days can be used.

Wouldn't you be allowed to finish those tournaments as a pawn?

Subjekt: Just browsing...
The tournaments.
There are two tournaments listed, both by a member of customer service, which are for 30 days each move. For Backgammon. at 30 moves per game, that is 4.93 years just to complete one game, and that doesnt include weekends and suspended game times. I know it is every individuals choice to play or not to play, but I think some people simply dont realize what they may be getting into. You will have to renew your membership 4 times just to get through the first round. Maybe there is a conspiracy by cusomer service to keep memberships up?

Just be forewarned that even a 3 day tournament with 30 moves for a game is going to last a half year, not including weekends and suspended times, just for the first round!
Even a 1 day tournament will take 8 weeks with weekends to finish one round....


IMO...There really needs to be a way to have a tournament setting for total time per round, or something.

Linda's donation for a server tournament will still be going long after all the money has been spent on 'miscellanious repairs' and most peoples membership has expired!

Ahhh.... OK, that is good. So right now, it would be 5/6 games per person (2 sections total)

OK, now I just got to hurry and wait until july 15th!

30. června 2004, 21:59:48
Fencer 
With 11 teams, two sections would be created - 6 and 5 teams. It means 5 or 4 games per player [10 or 8 if it's two-game type].

30. června 2004, 21:58:14

Stevie is right.

30. června 2004, 21:53:42

nope, it says max 8 teams per section doesnt it?

OK, that makes some since.

So as of right now with 11 teams, each person will have 11 games. (1 game with 1 person from each team)

BBW: The first player of each signed team will play with all other first players, the second one with all other second ones etc. And win/draw points will be summarized as the final score of the team in each particular match.
Let me finish the "table view", it will be more understandable then :-)

OK, how will the site Team tournaments actually work?

So far there are 11 teams (55 players), and I was wondering how things would work.

Does each player play everyone from 1 other team? Play everyone from all the other teams? Or possible just 1 player from another team?

I guess I'm just wondering how it is going to work. (And how many games we should expect)
