I confirm that I've just received money for these prizes. When winners are known, their memberships will be activated.

bwildman: How should it filter them? Remove players with BKR out of range in time of tournament start?

9. July 2004, 17:26:31
Fencer 
Yes, I should implement Team Tournaments at last :-D

9. July 2004, 17:14:50
Fencer 
Well, it should not happen anymore when our overloaded hardware is upgraded.
Hint Hint Hint :-)

I will probably make the "negative time" tournaments hidden.

8. July 2004, 19:26:01

I can be done later.

I disagree. Lots of people cannot access internet during weekends.

IMupChucKing: There was no conspiracy, secret plans or whatsoever. The tournament (with all its parameters) was created by Linda, I've just added a payment form to the tournament page top. Everybody who signed up for the tournament knew exactly how the tournaments work, there was no hidden information.
I agree that 30 day tournaments are a problem for some users (I don't say "all users" because I know many people who don't care about days per move and play just for fun, even tournament games). I plan to add a support for fast tournaments where no weekend or vacation days can be used.

With 11 teams, two sections would be created - 6 and 5 teams. It means 5 or 4 games per player [10 or 8 if it's two-game type].

30. June 2004, 21:58:14

Stevie is right.

BBW: The first player of each signed team will play with all other first players, the second one with all other second ones etc. And win/draw points will be summarized as the final score of the team in each particular match.
Let me finish the "table view", it will be more understandable then :-)

28. June 2004, 12:53:06
Fencer 
Ah-ha. Yes, when I implement it :-)

28. June 2004, 12:37:14

Once an hour.

Stevie: All tournaments are handled automatically when a deadline is crossed.

I've started the second round. Thanks for notifying me.

NEVER use the refresh button when creating tournament sections or games! :-))
However, it will be solved by BK 2.0 tournament system soon.

23. May 2004, 08:19:26
Fencer 
BBW: You had clicked on the "create" button more than once, huh? :-)
That's why there will be no such button in BK 2.0 and all tournaments will be controlled automatically by a script.

18. May 2004, 08:52:25
Fencer 
ughaibu: There is a set number of slots required [5 for one-game tourneys, 10 for two-game ones] because there is no way how to determine exact number of required slots before the sections are created [because some players can be removed during this process].

27. April 2004, 11:03:39
Fencer 
Right. Stop it. Now.

26. April 2004, 17:12:32
Fencer 
Ha, I won a membership! :-)) Any idea who could use it?

14. April 2004, 18:58:49

It takes seconds on BK 2.0.

14. April 2004, 14:04:17
Fencer 
Not yet.

I plan to add tournaments where no vacation days can be used and no timeouted games will be restored.

Currenly you can get this information only from me looking at the database. Better invitation process will be used soon.

The point is that a tournament has sections. If only one section is created, the tournament has only one round. Otherwise, winners of each section will create new sections in the next round. The whole tournament is finished after completing the section which is the only one in the last round.

29. March 2004, 12:17:27
Fencer 
I still don't see a reason why not to start the second round, Bernice.
Lythande: No, tournaments can have more than one winner.

Creator will be allowed to edit a tournament but no changes will be applied until they are approved by an administrator.

17. March 2004, 21:11:13
Fencer 
It seems that the rules need to be changed.

7. March 2004, 23:05:28
Fencer 
Of course.

7. March 2004, 22:33:49
Fencer 
Be careful with the deadline parameter. When BK 2.0 is done and released, the "start tournament" button will be removed and all tournaments will be started automatically, according to their set deadline. And this process won't be reversable.

7. March 2004, 09:38:08
Fencer 
All section winners will be promoted, of course.

Walter: Describe your prize at the tournament description and mark it as "prize tournament" [by a checkbox at the Define Tournament page].

6. March 2004, 10:51:51
Fencer 
Steve: Yes, there was only one "official" tournament [the very first one], I would like to bring this idea back. Winners of official tournaments will become something like BrainKing champions etc. Maybe a small golden cup will appear next to their names :-D

bumble: I think that BBW refers to my previous post about his tournaments :-) I've just said that I prefer one tournament group with more game types than many tournament groups with just one game type [because it occupies bigger space on Tournaments page]. However, many people like it in this way, so I don't object anymore. Non-official tournaments will be moved to another page anyway, in the next version of BK.

lovelysharon: I will fix it.

23. February 2004, 08:19:39

BBW: Why don't you create just one tournament with more game types? I don't like the way you make Tournaments page too long.

17. February 2004, 16:13:34
Fencer 
BBW: Yes, exactly.

16. February 2004, 12:17:34

Subject: Re: I think I asked before but forgot the answer DOH!!
There will be a nice form in BK 2.0.

13. February 2004, 23:21:49

Fixed.

IMupChucKing: Pay full price and the rest of your current membership will be used to extend the new membership.

9. February 2004, 18:14:36
Fencer 
IMupChucKing: You can also create a private tournament and send invitations only to "really fast" players of your choice. Of course, after you upgrade to Brain Rook :-)

8. February 2004, 12:03:56

As a "two-phase commit" [database term], of course. Such action would have to be confirmed by me.

8. February 2004, 12:03:05
Fencer 
Okay, should I add a feature for the tournament director to finish slow games when necessary?

12. January 2004, 14:26:43

Whisperz: Good joke :-D

1. January 2004, 21:21:05

It can be a long-time not discovered bug because it seems that almost nobody uses this combobox ;-) I will look at the code.

1. January 2004, 21:17:42
Fencer 
I will look at it.

27. December 2003, 19:39:57
Fencer 
I have fixed it.

17. December 2003, 08:01:53
Fencer 
I've just started the second round.
However, I don't understand why do you complain? You pay nothing, you can use a free service on this site as you can. If you don't like it and want to take advantage of more features, upgrade your membership. That's what everybody does.
