Asunto: The backgammon race team tourny

Can this not be changed to 1 game each pair?
two games isnt necesary in backgammon due to the die deciding who goes firts.
And 8 teams per section means 16 games each, this is reducing the amount of players who can join cos of limits on knights who are paying members/ contributors. And rooks who already have many games due to large team members numbers needed on the other tournies

Congrats to Arpa for winning my 3 pack Backgammon tournament... Again, out of my bracket, so thats good :) it was a 2 day tournament and still it takes 2 months to finish...

I have just started a new Backgammon championship for people with a winning overall game record. 3 days per move for fast players, first 20 people to sign up, and it will be started.

Go to the Team Tournament link. Find the Reversi 6x6 tournament, and when you get there, it should give you the opportunity to sign your team up for the tournament.

12. Septiembre 2004, 01:05:51

To sign up for the Team Tournament, Do that HERE

It starts in about 3 days.

I'm team Captain for Zoo.s Reversi 6X6 and have been told to put our team up against another team. How do I do this?

11. Septiembre 2004, 23:23:56

That did it Harley (kinda weird that there is no link on the tournament page?)....Thanks! :)

11. Septiembre 2004, 23:08:52

Click on 'back to list of game types' then look next to the tournament name. There should be a clickable link saying (edit).

11. Septiembre 2004, 22:17:20

How do you edit a finished tournament tha you created to add the name of the winner? Its probably something simple I have overlooked, but I cant seem to find out how to do this. Thanks :)

11. Septiembre 2004, 22:12:58

Since the first team tournament is in the second round, and my team is not in it anymore, shouldnt I now be able to leave the team I am on? Or do we have to wait until the whole tournament is finished? Is this a bug? Thanks :)

The train has left the station and there is little appetite anymore for racket busting crusaders in search of a cause. If private messages to Fencer won't do the job then you have to assume it's a dry hole.

I just talked to people in PM and I see what your talking about now AD, but we got to remember we are playing games and if you can not win the tournament LIKE ME then we all try again and next time we might win.... I thought this was all just for fun, I have never won anything and I'm just happy to see my name at the top of the ratings at two different games :o)

11. Septiembre 2004, 08:58:40

Asunto: Re:

What I'm trying to say is if there is people out there with phoney accounts That meens thay are not as good as their rating shows and I would love to play against them all the time so when I kick their but my rating get higher :o)

Ad: You have to stop and think if any pawns that you are playing against are phoney they must not be that good at that game so you should be able to beet them....... The way I look at it is, If I don't win the first round then I will get in the next tournament and try to win that one

Asunto: speculation = A hypothesis that has been formed by speculating or conjecturing (usually with little hard evidence)

I'd say that when someone tells you in a private fellowship that they ARE the QWERTY account, and then they send you a PM from the QWERTY, that is hardly speculation but is all the proof one needs. Unless of course you're not interested in getting at the truth.

11. Septiembre 2004, 08:30:58

I told you it's not a speculation. LJ told me and showed me he was using the QWERTY account. It's not my fault Fencer that you're too stubborn to believe the truth. Take it as friendly help

11. Septiembre 2004, 08:12:45

Fencer

AD: I don't want to see these speculations on Tournaments board. Take is as a friendly warning.

11. Septiembre 2004, 07:59:15

Asunto: Nice that you are sponsoring a tournement LJq

I wonder if any of those winning pawn accounts are just like your phoney QWERTY account? My money is on you being at least one of those accounts.

I realize that is how it works now, I am suggesting we change it so as not to hold up the tournaments unnecessarily.

Asunto: Re:

Correct, 5 teams go through. Just waiting on one game. That game in theory could last another 8 turns each. Since it's a 3 day tournament that could be 48 days. Of course a nice long vacation could lengthen that.

How about just starting round 2 before the game finishes?

5. Septiembre 2004, 22:15:33

I can see 5 teams going through on the backgammon one

Same goes for the backgammon tournament. We already know the teams that have won, let's go on to the next round, since the remaining matches have no bearing on the result.

Now tell me this will not ruin the fun of the tourny

Asunto: Team Tournament Question

Modificado por coan.net (3. Septiembre 2004, 21:28:11)

It is a 2 way tie.

First, the team with the most points is the winner.

If there is a tie between point, then it moves to which has the most game wins.

It's probable not "yellowed" yet for the winners because Fencer not programed it to determin the winners yet - but that is just my guess since this is something new.

The other 2 sections still have games (even though we already know 2 teams from section 1, 2 teams from section 2, and 1 team from section 3 will move on.)

Those teams are:

Modificado por rod03801 (3. Septiembre 2004, 21:23:14)

I am curious about the First Team Tournament.
Section 2 appears to be a 4 way tie. Will all 4 teams move on to round 2? (Nothing has been "yellowed" like in regular tournaments, to indicate the winner of the section) Or is there another method to decide ties? (Like S-B in regular tournaments)
