Only me.

Emne: Re:

BerniceC: That's easy because Evásek announced that she is leaving BK, so he could deduct she won't play ponds anymore.

Emne: Re: NOT at all

Walter Montego: Every game is "flawed" in some way. You cannot find a perfect one. Btw, I don't think there is a significant flaw. Every aspect can be considered as a part of the strategy.

1. Juli 2005, 07:03:06

Emne: Re:

Pedro Martínez: Not legalized. But you cannot banish people only because it "looks like" cheating.

Emne: Re: what if....

Nothingness: You must finish it with default moves.

13. Juni 2005, 13:42:38

Emne: Re:

Eriisa: Of course it didn't, it needs 16 players.

Emne: Re: this rain is weird

Mike UK: Absolutely.

13. Juni 2005, 12:43:03

Emne: Re: this rain is weird

rabbitoid: More than 2 players can fall in a round.

Andre Faria: Why don't you click on show rules?

Emne: Re: This is weird

Pedro Martínez: Can you give me the pond ID?

18. Maj 2005, 20:12:37

What bug?

17. Maj 2005, 07:26:15

Emne: Re: question

Nothingness: Sorry! My bad. Ponds are counted, of course.

10. Maj 2005, 12:55:53

Emne: Re: Dark Ponds

Mike UK: Only names and BKRs of running players are hidden. Points left and bids are visible, so are all information about fallen players.

9. Maj 2005, 16:23:24

Emne: Re: Dark Ponds

BIG BAD WOLF: Yes.

9. Maj 2005, 15:18:01

Emne: Re:

rod03801: Add a wolf smiley after every comment and nobody can recognize you.

9. Maj 2005, 15:15:08

I call you a pesimist.

The names of fallen players show up.

9. Maj 2005, 15:06:17

Emne: Re: Dark

rod03801: The names will be replaced by question marks even in the discussion.

9. Maj 2005, 14:22:28

Emne: Re: Fencer....

Czuch Chuckers: Yes.

2. Maj 2005, 21:36:22

I'll have a look at it.

2. Maj 2005, 21:20:01

Emne: Re: Pond 352

tonyh: I see nothing "whacky". What do you mean?

2. Maj 2005, 09:03:55

Emne: Re: Re:

Hrqls: It's calculated only when the pond is finished :-)
Statistics - not yet.

2. Maj 2005, 08:55:28

Emne: Re: Re:

Hrqls: You cannot count it as "win" or "loss". The formula has some input parameters - your current BKR, average BKR of all opponents, current BKR of each opponent, number of "wins" [players with lower final order], number of "draws" [players on the same level as you], number of "losses" [players with higher final order]. It takes all of this, makes some creepy things with them and spits out the result as your new BKR :-)

1. Maj 2005, 19:13:42

Emne: Re:

rod03801: This one. Yes, the same is applied on normal games but in a simplified way.

1. Maj 2005, 17:54:59

Emne: Re: Re:

Cathy1: 16 players might be a little better because what really matters is the average BKR of all your opponents. But not only this, of course.

1. Maj 2005, 17:47:02

Emne: Re:

BIG BAD WOLF: You are guessing right.

1. Maj 2005, 17:24:08

Emne: Re: Re:

Czuch Chuckers: Not always, it depends on your opponents' BKR. Falling in the pond with low rated players is worse.

1. Maj 2005, 17:17:29

Not exactly. The formula is more complex in this case but the basic idea is the same.

1. Maj 2005, 08:03:05

Well, the ratings are based on final positions of the particular pond players. When you have the last round of a finished pond, consider players behind you as your wins, players on the same position as draws and the rest as your losses. And, of course, their current BKR is significant for the BKR result.

22. April 2005, 09:40:04

Emne: Re: winners

Hrqls: Me neither :-)

22. April 2005, 06:40:45

I will add it to Profiles as well.

21. April 2005, 21:01:09

Who wanted the winners?

21. April 2005, 18:13:20

Emne: Re: Re:

BIG BAD WOLF: Is it better now?

15. April 2005, 10:03:07

Shortly, what is your request?

27. Marts 2005, 18:15:36

Emne: Re: Fencer

Czuch Chuckers: 6 players, not 3. Carry on.

27. Marts 2005, 17:14:34

Emne: Re: BKR

Mely: Nothing, as you can see.

27. Marts 2005, 17:04:56

Emne: Re: Fencer

Czuch Chuckers: Yes if you give me pond ID and player ID.

16. Marts 2005, 16:27:26

And the result is?

Complaining is useless. New server is needed.

15. Marts 2005, 20:45:20

Emne: Re: question

rabbitoid: Because the server was down for two hours, maybe more.

19. Februar 2005, 12:38:38

Emne: Re: Fencer

redsales: It's worth thinking about.

10. Februar 2005, 08:36:24

Emne: Re:

Maxxina: Sounds like a goat.

6. Februar 2005, 23:30:03

What's the point of this endless discussion? I already have a rating system for pond games, it's just not activated yet. The goal is to keep the things easy and simple, which is the fact certain people still refuse to accept.

4. Februar 2005, 19:55:39

I disagree.

4. Februar 2005, 18:45:28

Emne: Re:

Bry: I won't.

2. Februar 2005, 15:32:08

Yes, Londo came with this proposal, I am aware of it. However, the only list of forbidden things can be found on the User Agreement page.

2. Februar 2005, 15:09:31

Emne: Re:

Pedro Martínez: Not forbidden, only non-recommended. But there are situations which don't allow to leave some posts on boards, even if somebody already responded to them.
