: ) 27. April 2003, 13:05:45 Subject: Kudos  Congrats to Pioneer54 who won Keryo Pente in Eriisa's Free For All!
Congrats to lovelysharon who won Section 3 of Backgammon in Eriisa's Free For All! The rest of the games are still running. 26. April 2003, 21:55:12  Howling Wolf, if you time-out on a game during a time when the site is having problems I'm sure Fencer would re-instate the game for you if you message him. Especially a tournament game. 26. April 2003, 20:36:27 Subject: MY thoughts on the problems Running a website costs mney. Making a site run faster and better cosst money.
Tep roblem right now? Too many free riders!! There are too many people who play close to 20 games and are not paying members. This slows the site down and then the paying members suffer. HOwling Wolf, please don't takew this the wrong way, but, you are not PAYING anything, so I don't think you have much to complain about. Granted, people are ALLOWED to play up to 20 games for free, so it isn't really their fault. so, i think Fencer should lower the amount of games people can play for free. If that upsets soem of them and they leave, oh well, that is an income loss of ZER since thye re not paying anything! 26. April 2003, 17:06:11 Subject: TROUBLE ACCESSING GAMES INC. TOURNAMENT GAMES!!! I've been having a LOT of trouble accessing this site lately! Some other people here tell me they've had trouble too! I keep getting a pop-up message telling me the site is "too busy to use right now". As a result of not being able to access my account, I have timed out on FOUR of my tournament games with only ONE move having been made by my opponent. Since I was unable to get in here to play, I lost the game without ever having been able to make a single move! What is causing this access problem? How is it being addressed? And what happens now to those of us who keep getting shut out of our tournament games????

Howling Wolf 22. April 2003, 14:21:37 Subject: Re: Harley I dont have any tourneys to sign up for right now! maybe I should start a few, it HAS been a while. Any suggestions? 22. April 2003, 02:58:43 Subject: Re: Harley But Art, that's the way you learn. You should have seen me in the first 3 games of Atomic Chess. LOL 22. April 2003, 00:39:43 Subject: Harley Well, maybe it's time I joined one of yours. :) I need to branch out. But I stink at most other games as I've never played them. 21. April 2003, 11:09:01 :( Well put it this way, Art, I dont think I'll be going in for any more chess tourneys anytime soon!!
Ian... nudge nudge, I DID sign for your tourney so I know its not properly started yet! :P You closed for sign up, now you have to press another button to start the tourney :D 21. April 2003, 06:00:04 BLUE STEEL: Even when the date passes, the tournament won't start until the creator starts it. They don't start automatically. 21. April 2003, 02:07:11 Subject: ArtfulDodger's U2000 Chess Tourney #3 We've got 4 so far signed up. It's =2000 so should leave lots of room for great competition. Check it out in the tournament area.
How are the games harley??!! :) 21. April 2003, 00:46:19 *frown* at Ian!! LOL, is it you thats causing confusion with BlueSteel?! I dunno, memory like a sieve... forget to breathe if someone wasnt there to poke you when you stopped... leave your head on the bus if it wasn't screwed loosely to your head... [walks away muttering about Ians memory]!!! :oD 20. April 2003, 23:49:38 Subject: Sorry. Can i say Sorry to all who signed up for my Beginners Chess tournament for such a late start.!
This was due to me totally forgetting that i had set this tournament up.! Sorry again & good luck to all. Ian. 20. April 2003, 19:38:53 Hi there, Blue Steel. I had a look and the tournament you're in is due to start on April 27th. It has the date on the page where your name is. Good luck! :) 20. April 2003, 19:05:42 Subject: tournament start I'm new to this site. I have signed up for a beginners tournament. It says last term to sign is April 10, 03. confused,when would this start? thank you, BLUE STEEL 20. April 2003, 01:17:37 Subject: FREDS MEGA FAST TOUNEY #3 .....is now open for signing up.
1 or 2 game formats, all welcome, have fun! :o) 19. April 2003, 19:07:44 Subject: Re: Weekend Player You're welcome. :) Welcome aboard! 18. April 2003, 21:45:24 Subject: Re: ArtfulDodger tournament Hi Weekend Player, I've changed it to seven days per move. :) 18. April 2003, 11:04:13 Subject: ArtfulDodger tournament i would join but you have set the games to 3 days and as i work away from home 4 days a week :( just a thought 18. April 2003, 06:47:29 Subject: Chess tournament!!! join it!! :) I need two more players in the ArtfulDodger tournament to start it and prefer 4 more. Any chess players out there?? :) Hope so! Oh yeah, it's U1800 so if your rating is 1800 or above, sorry. 16. April 2003, 00:52:36 Subject: Backgammon and Chess Tournament openings Need one more for the ArtfulDodger Backgammon tournament and just opened another Chess tournament .. U1800 :) Join if you've an interest! 15. April 2003, 13:43:32 Subject: Re: Sorting the games Thanks Fencer, everytime I thought I had it figured I realized I didnt. LOL. 15. April 2003, 13:29:13 Subject: Re: Sorting the games  Eriisa: The games in this combobox are sorted by the last move date and time of your opponents. I will add more sorting options later because they can be too CPU-resources consuming and I would like to upgrade to a faster server first. 15. April 2003, 13:20:41 Subject: Sorting the games I've been trying to figure something out.... When you are on a games's page, there is the buttone for next game with the drop down box. Is there a way to control the sort of games in that box? What order are they listed in there? 15. April 2003, 08:50:20 Subject: Re: Game #s are 53302 and 72472. Thanks, Fencer, you're a peach! :) 15. April 2003, 08:43:45 Give me the game IDs, I will restore them. 15. April 2003, 08:41:31 Subject: Timing Out I timed out on 2 games today, both with a 24-hour time limit. For 11 hours, I was not able to get into the site. Obviously, I could have played them well within the time limit if I could have gotten here. I seriously doubt that I'm the only person who timed out today because all we could get was a white screen. What are the chances of getting these games restored? 14. April 2003, 01:31:07 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments  Well...i just watched The Masters (golf) and they could have a playoff so why not here? 14. April 2003, 00:04:29 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments at present there is no provision to create a tournament for certain members only. It would be much better for the original tournaments to play to a final outcome. 13. April 2003, 14:26:35 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments Just create a new tournament "Playoff Open Fast Backgammon" only open for the 3 winners. 13. April 2003, 07:09:31 Subject: Re: bring on the single elimination tournys ...least that way you get a clear winner 13. April 2003, 06:41:38 Right now, there will not be a new round if the previous round had only one section. Like in that example, round 2 had only one section, so there will be no round 3, ties or not. 13. April 2003, 06:41:13 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments I setup this tourny, but alas it gives me no provision to go to another round, but yes I agree it should go to round 3, guess its up to Fencer now. 13. April 2003, 05:31:48  as one of the three.... I vote for another round.... :) 13. April 2003, 05:07:45 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments  Yes, I see now. I was mis-interpreting what I was seeing. At a quick glance, I thought those were 4 other sections, not the results from round 1.
You are right, the 3 of you should have played another round until there was a final winner. I know IYT does it that way. 13. April 2003, 05:02:37 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments  On the "Winners" page (new option on the left hand side) - it list all 3 of us from Round 2 as winners of that tournament.
The four sections in round 1 were already played, with the 4 winners each going to "Round 2, Section1" - which has ended with a 3 way tie. - which looks like the end of the tournament to me. 13. April 2003, 04:54:55 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments It seems to me, all 3 of you from your section, as well as the winners of the other sections are about to start round 3. Or are you saying that somewhere it is stating you are the final winner of the entire tournament???? 13. April 2003, 04:32:54 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments That tournament is counting as a tournament win for me in the "Winners" list - so I don't think a round 3 is going to start. 13. April 2003, 03:53:04 Subject: Re: Ties in Tournaments I think it should definitely be extended until there is a final winner.
ADDITION AFTER SENDING: I just looked at that tournament. Aren't you just waiting for round 3 to start??? 13. April 2003, 03:07:46 Subject: Ties in Tournaments I know how it is currently set up - if there is a tie in the last round of a tournament, it just ends as a tie. (for example the Open Fast Backgammon (3) tournament)
I guess my question is if there are any plans to extend a tournament for more rounds to find one winner, or if it will always stay like this. My vote is to extend it - what do others think? 13. April 2003, 02:24:46 Subject: Winner's page. I too like the winner's page Fencer. Maybe sometime I'll find myself on it! :-D .. would it be possible to also put "Won tournaments" on peoples' profiles? 13. April 2003, 01:54:35 Subject: Tank War wooo hoo! Thanks Paul, I'm really beginning to like this game! :) 13. April 2003, 01:29:36 Subject: Re: Hey Harley Good to have you with us. :) Hopefully we can get enough interested. I may have a Backgammon tourney too, or join one. I'm rather a new player at it but am learning fast. Have a great Saturday! 13. April 2003, 00:19:31 Subject: Re: Hey Harley Aww, thanks, AD!! I'll go sign up now! I shouldn't really, I have too many games going already but I think I need some practice for chess! LOL! Cheers! :o) << < 253 254 255 256 257 258 259 260 261 262 > >> |
