playBunny: Hope you can accept my apology for not noticing what you've been up to...sorry .


Have to say this too:  I wasnt thinking about you at all when i asked Alan about sophisticated, but all of the sudden you popped up.

playBunny: Well...I didnt notice that you are on strike until today, sorry if i make you feel ignored :)...any success?


Has "the Man" changed the system or does he spoil your fun?

playBunny: Sorry, my bad...but you agree that you are sophisticated? :)

8. February 2008, 23:31:31
Andersp 
Subject: Re: High and low
playBunny: Wrong..i just suggested that we should have one rating for us brave players and one for the sophisticated....cant be so fun to know that you keep your rating because you dont play any player, is it?

gogul: LOL...yes..i just checked his profile...but he also consider himself being a top player in backgammon :)

playBunny: at least one who is happy with the Fencer's system :)

8. February 2008, 23:07:11
Andersp 
Subject: Re: High and low
playBunny:  Do you think it would be a good idea to have one rating for you sophisticated players and one for us who play any player?

8. February 2008, 19:57:55
Andersp 
Subject: Re: sophisticated backgammon players
alanback: I dont think that i am so sophisticated, but i think the BKR system should be more fair if all players played low rated players too

Subject: Re: sophisticated backgammon players
alanback: Thanks for the "links" :)...are you a sophisticated backgammon player?

Subject: sophisticated backgammon players
alanback: ..a new expression for me...exactly what does it mean?

pgt: A "normal" site owner should treat us "second-class citizens" more carefully, wondering if he ever takes a look at this?

At least he gave us the option to chose opponents and create autopass tourneys but that only works in no cube cames as we know :(


The terrible speed is another story i wont mention,  i have been called "moaner" too many times already :)

My aplology to all peple who are offended because i tried to resign this discussion

8. October 2007, 22:22:30

Subject: Re:
Czuch Czuckers: I think thats a good conclusion (and hopefully ending) of this silly discussion  LOL

8. October 2007, 21:32:12
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Anders, your point is...?
playBunny: LOL...yes Bunny you are right, i didnt misunderstand, i (and most players here) know the real reason why you dont accept even a friendly invitation.....but to me its still more rude than to resign a finished game  :)

8. October 2007, 20:56:34
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Anders, your point is...?
playBunny: Oh im sorry i misunderstood...so you accept a friendly invitation for backgammon?  think you should add that to your profile

8. October 2007, 19:07:13
Andersp 
Subject: Anders, your point is...?

playBunny:  Well...if you want a "point"


To me its more rude to not accept a friendly invitation on a gamesite than to say "congrats good game" and resign a finished game.


8. October 2007, 19:01:13
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Is this rude?

playBunny: ....Anders, your point is...?:


No point..i just asked you if you think its rude to not accept a friendly game invitation since the invitor obviously has a wish to play a game against you.

Andersp 
Subject: Re: Would your opponent think it rude?
playBunny: There is only one (1) person on BK i know who wants to continue playing and she is sitting behind me LOL

8. October 2007, 18:25:52
Andersp 
Subject: Is this rude?
playBunny: "Even with a friendly greeting, I am very unlikely to accept Backgammon invitations."

8. October 2007, 18:19:50
Andersp 
am i the only one who thinks that Play Bunny is joking? :)

8. October 2007, 18:17:38
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Would your opponent think it rude?

playBunny: So..do you think its a good idea that we ask Fencer if he can give us an option to add a "dont resign mark" to our nickname?....i've rsigned many games and no one has complained so why should i think that they are offended?


Pogo has a fun pop-balloon game for people who loves to click!


8. October 2007, 18:09:09
Andersp 
Subject: Would your opponent think it rude?
playBunny: Dont think so

8. October 2007, 17:35:02
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Etiquette
playBunny: Even if i knew that my opponent prefers to click til the board is empty i would say "Congrats good game" asnd resign...is that an answer to your question?.   And i dont consider it rude...the game is over so why go on clicking?

8. October 2007, 05:43:11
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Etiquette

playBunny: ..."go against the wishes of your opponent"


so..if i play against a player who doesnt want autopass which is my wish...is he/she rude to me then? :)


7. October 2007, 21:03:15
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Etiquette
Czuch Czuckers: To me its more bad etiquette to continue a lost game than to say "congrats" and then resign it.

Czuch Czuckers: LOL...try to do that at your kitchentable with real dice :)

playBunny: I must have sacrified a lot to the dice Gods...3  random double ones in a row so far, wondering what the record is? LOL

Subject: Re:

Family Man: Fencer's autopass is nothing but a big joke.


 You cant use it in cube games and you can not use it if your opponent doesnt use it.  He and i had a deal, i bought 2 black rooks and he should implement autopass.  This autopassjoke is his way to keep his part of the deal

22. August 2007, 19:14:22

Subject: Re: Cheat?

coan.net:  Lets hope that Fencer uses "your sign" then noone needs to read "cheater" and "nazi" again.


Luckily i hadnt my daughter on my lap this time, its not so fun/easy to explain what those words mean.


22. August 2007, 18:58:04

coan.net: Well...i guess BKR is more important to you than it is to me then  LOL

Marfitalu:  Well...even if coan often speaks for Fencer i prefer to wait for Fencers answer :)


Noone deserves to be called cheater or nazi, there are enough people here without those bad losers.

coan.net: I won the first part/game...then i resigned the rest, dont play players who call me cheater and nazi...ive sent the game to Fencer

Subject: Re: The other problem with rated Triple
Hrqls:   So if i win agains someone who has 2200+  thats luck...and if he wins its skill? right?

4. June 2007, 20:30:19
Andersp 
Subject: Re: The other problem with rated Triple
alanback: I might be stupid but im not sure i understand your talk about unfair rating.  If you lose 12 points to a lower rated player its because he was lucky, but you have reached your BKR because of your skill, not luck?   am i correct?

4. June 2007, 19:58:13
Andersp 
Subject: Re: The other problem with rated Triple
alanback: But if we didnt have any rating then you and other "very good players" could play in all tourneys without any worries and not be forced to only play each other, wouldnt that be nice? :)

4. June 2007, 19:43:37
Andersp 
Subject: Re: The other problem with rated Triple
alanback: shouldnt be any ratings at all in the dice games

Subject: Re: Unrated Triple Gammon

alanback: I think you are right..i only read the first lines


 


<span>everyone plays 1 match against everyone in the tournament


1. June 2007, 20:51:06
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Unrated Triple Gammon
coan.net:  Do you think that "very good players" (2300+) who never play lower rated players have a correct BKR? 

1. June 2007, 20:43:05
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Unrated Triple Gammon
alanback:  But this tournament will probably have 64 players so a very good player like you shouldnt have bad luck in 63 games?

1. June 2007, 20:33:26
Andersp 
Subject: Re: Unrated Triple Gammon
alanback:   Still dont get it..how can rating in a luck game be so important?...if its a skill game you shouldnt be worried to play us "not good players"?
