Herlock Sholmes: No, a 10 games match lasts 10 games. If you want a match where the first player to reach 6 points wins, you should play a 6 points match (aka 'best of 11').

AbigailII: thanks Abigaill ... I think this current system is a little bit confusing ... lets say 10 games match would make sense if players would earn different scores in every game ... 10 game match would make sense if we added points for each game of Dice Poker for each player ...for example, 190 points for player A and 217 for player B in the first game, 202 for player A and 224 for the second player in the second game, and so on, till the last, 10th game (each time totaling these scores) ... otherwise it doesn't make sense to me ... we should introduce the system 2 out of 3, 3 out of 5, 4 out of 7 and so on ...

Herlock Sholmes: "2 out of 3" would be simply a "2 win match", 4 out of 7 would be "4 win match" they are the same just not called the same as to what you are accustomed to.
As far as the 10 game match, it shouldn't be confusing, it is simply a "10 GAME match", you either win by wining more than 5 games, lose by losing more than 5 games or tie by winning 5 games, if it were the way you suggested it would have to be called a "most points in x games match"

Vikings: Even game matches can all result in a draw where the odd game matches there is only one winner,either way we all have the choice to choose.

Universal Eyes: Odd game matches can result in draws as well for most games. Odd game matches only guarantees a winner if a single game cannot end in a draw. Most games on BK can end in a draw.

Pedro Martínez: Interesting. How would a game of Battleboats, for example, end in a draw? There is no situation where a draw can arise in this game. One could use the "Offer a draw" link, but pointless in this game as there is always a winner!

SL-Mark: No matter how pointless it is, it still is possible to accept an offered draw in battleboats.

Vikings: well, it is confusing according to what Abigail says: you have to play 10 straight games regardles if you won 6 already or not ...

Subject: Re: 10 games match question
Herlock Sholmes: Sometimes people just play for the sake of playing. If you don't like the concept of "X game" matches, don't participate in them! There are enough alternatives that come close enough to what you want.
