Emne: Re:
I for one am all for being able to set up a tournament which features invites only. There are times you want to play certain people or perhaps from a club or something. It would be very helpful.

The problem i can see with the creator being able to kick players out is as follows...

My brother plays the game StarCraft (if anyone is familiar with it). Anyways, quite often, people will create a game, and ban anyone who joins for no reason at all. The game sits there forever, never starts, and takes up space both on the server and the list of games screen.
I can see this happening here too...someone will create a tournament, kick everyone out who joins, and it will never start - just remain on the list forever.

Although, i still think its a good idea, because that likely would not happen very often.
And I agree with the private tournaments as well - good idea :-)

Emne: Another Idea
How about the being able to make "private" tournaments where the creator has to invite players to play in the tournament.

Right now to do that, you would have to create a fellowship, create a fellowship tournament, the invite the players you want to play.

Why? Lets take example some of the Backgammon Tournaments I have created. Maybe once I get the first 7 winners, I will want to invite them to an "overall" championship match. Or possible you have a group of friends that would like to get together for a friendly tournament.

Just an idea. :-)

Emne: Re:
BBW: I 100% agree, whoever starts a tournament should be able to make sure it runs correctly, in fellowships mainly.
My only concern i about rated ones, what if your rating is good enough (or bad - depending) at the time of entering, but then changes ??

Anyway, I've just created a prize tournament [actually, four prize tournaments in one group] open for everyone :-)

25. Juni 2003, 08:11:44
coan.net 
I do like the idea of letting the person who creates the tournaments to be able to kick certain people out of the tournament.

This could come in handy when:

1. A pawn or Knight enters and does not have enough spots (like when the max players are set to 4 or 5 - it could mean the tournament will not start unless they are removed)

2. Also when someone somehow gets into a tournament and their rating is outside of the "scope".

...........
But on the other hand, I can see this being abused and causing some people to get mad when they are removed from a tournament. Something to think about though.

25. Juni 2003, 08:07:47
Kevin 
It has never happened to me, but i have seen a few cases where people were allowed to join when they shouldn't have (especially when unrated is set to no, it seems unrated players can still join sometimes).

For me, it always gave me the message something like "You cannot join this tournament because your [insert game here] rating (####) is out of the defined range".

That's intersting, I have tested this feature and it seemed to be working correctly. I will look at it.

Emne: Illegitimate tournament entries
Just for kicks, I tried entering some tournaments that I was rated either too high or too low for, and I was able to do it!? I was expecting to see some note saying I didn't qualify, but instead my name was placed on the list, which I immediately removed.

Then, I wondered if someone deliberately or by accident made such an entry, how would it be handled? Do the organizers delete anybody who should not be there when they start the tournament?

Emne: Chess and variants for dummies :)
I have just created Chess and variants for dummies :) (under 1500 BKR) tournament.

Everyone that enjoys chess but not getting trashed by superior opponents is welcome to join. This is also a great opportunity to try out all the variants you always wanted to but didn't for a reason or another.

Tournament will be starting July 1st.

Emne: Re:
I guess I did understand the TD needed to start the tournament. I was concerned about starting it before the assigned sign up date.

Since the required number for the minium players is met and it looks as if all players can participate, I assumed I could start the tourament with out it being canceled for some silly reason on the tourey bot.

Thanks again.

There is still plenty of room to join the BIG BAD WOLF presents: ALL 6 Pente Games! (#7)

It includes all 6 versions of Pente and will start in about 24 hours.

The tournaments are not started automatically - that is the job of the tournament creator :-)

When you want to start it, click the button that says "Close for Signups" on the tournament page. That will take you to another page in which you will be allowed to start the tournament. Remember you have to click two buttons (one to close sign-ups and another to start the tournament) before it will start.

And also when the first round completes, if there is to be a 2nd round, that is your job to start as well. It will not start automatically ;-)

Emne: Re:
Thanks for your help Kevin. Just to make sure I have things clear here.
The tournament now has 4 people, 3 are unrated. Of the three one has 11 games started, once the tourney starts he will have a total 19 games stared. If I close the tournament early will all the games start? Currently none will exceed the 20 game max allowed to pawns.
I would think the tourney bot would recognize the minum number of players required to start and would start the tournament.
Strange indeed.

Two more 10x10 players desesperatly needed to start fast Halma tournament !

It would just be a good idea to not start the tourney until you have either at least 4 rooks signed up, or more than 4 other players - the more the safer you are! :-)

(or, if you wanted to, you could check all the pawn and knight profiles to see how many games they had, and see which ones will not have room for it) :-)

You have to start over unfortunately.

Emne: Re:
So what do you do if the tourney doesn't start because of someone not qualifying? Can you just get another player, or do you have to start over with a new tournament?

21. Juni 2003, 08:06:21
coan.net 
If you click to close a tournament, it has to have at least the minimum number of people signed up or the tournament will be deleted. (So if the minimum is set to 4, at least 4 need to be signed up)

What makes it tricky is if a pawn or Knight sign up and they don't have enough room, then they are "kicked" out of the tournament which might send the total number back below the minimum number - meaning the tournament will not start.

I hope this helps!

Emne: A question?
I read the following:
Please don't forget that you cannot close the tournament for sign-ups before the date and time specified at the Last term to sign up field passes. After this action is performed, all tournaments with less than defined minimum number of players will be deleted.

Does this mean if a tournament has a minimum of 4 people, only 3 sign up, then the tournament is deleted? The statement "After this action is performed, all tournaments with less than defined minimum number of players will be
deleted." leads me to believe all tournaments with a minimum amount of players will be deleted? A more clear explanation of the statements would helpl

Thanks

Emne: New Tournament
Hello everyone.
I've posted a tournament for those that play Anti-Checkers.

Time limit is 5 days per move with 2 games aside. It is created for those rated 1700 and under (including Provisionals and unrated players).

So, if you fall into this category, sign on up. Signups end June 28.

Thank you.

grant: Considering it is 2 games against each player, and you will probably be in an 8-person section (based on the # of sign-ups) you could have as many as 14 games in that tournament.

Icon, it also depends if you want to play for fun or not! There are a lot of serious players here, I play more for fun, but some of my teams have very serious players... I guess fellowship captains will soon get to know which are the 'serious' ones, and play more often against those, if thats their choice.
