Otsikko: Re: P.S. / suggestion to webmaster
You can remove yourself from a tournament before it is started. After that it is not possible, of course, because the sections would have to be recreated again and it would be too complicated.

Otsikko: Re: an addition
You have probably clicked on "My tournaments" link. This page shows only tournaments that you have created (which is nothing because only Brain Rooks can create tournaments).

Otsikko: Re: trying to get out
Yes, you have to wait. But there are two other possiblities:
1) Let me know that you've finished all your games. Then I will mark you as "eliminated" and you'll be able to sign up for another tournament.
2) Upgrade your membership. Then you'll be able to play more tournaments at once.

It used to be random but since the $250 gothic chess tournament it is not. Please read more on http://gothicchess.org.

Pioneer: "Eliminated" in only an internal database term and has nothing to do with some real eliminating. It only tells the system that the particular player is free for other tournaments.

Otsikko: Re: Clarification Please
Better system will be implemented in the future.
Meanwhile, if it is absolutely clear that the pawn won't advance to the second round and his section is not finished yet, he can contact me and I will mark him as "eliminated" of the tournament, so he'll be able so sign up for another one.

Otsikko: Re: Ongoing Tournament
I will start the second round ASAP. Zetes is probably on vacation or something.
Next time, you can immediately send a request directly to me, of course.

I've created one more prize tournament - here :-)

Otsikko: Re: Gothic Chess World Championship
Ed: I am currently developing "private tournaments" - the tournament creator can invite specific players to sign up and nobody else can participate. This could solve your problem - you will allow only people who paid $50 to you to sign up for the World Championship. What do you think?
Btw, I will also not play in this tournament because I have no chance to win it. I am still a beginner in this game :-)

Otsikko: Re: Gothic Chess World Championship
Management feels that non-paying members have really many advantages [compared to other game sites] and does not want to give them anything else for free. Please don't forget that this horde of pawns create a significant CPU load of our machines and giving them more privileges would only increase this load.
There is more about it on http://BrainKing.info tech page.

Otsikko: Re: fencer's 4 variant chess tourneys
rabbitoid: Heh ;-) If I win, the prize will be given to the player on the second place.

25. Kesäkuu 2003, 08:16:57
Fencer 
Anyway, I've just created a prize tournament [actually, four prize tournaments in one group] open for everyone :-)

25. Kesäkuu 2003, 07:39:00

That's intersting, I have tested this feature and it seemed to be working correctly. I will look at it.

4. Kesäkuu 2003, 11:47:44
Fencer 
I will improve it. Later :-)

19. Toukokuu 2003, 16:50:10

Yes. Your Settings / Calendar values are applied on all games.

9. Toukokuu 2003, 07:53:49

Done.

9. Toukokuu 2003, 07:09:33

Sure, give me the game IDs.

5. Toukokuu 2003, 07:19:57

Otsikko: 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. Huhtikuu 2003, 08:43:45

Give me the game IDs, I will restore them.

10 or more.

Otsikko: Re: I'm having trouble joining a tournament
You were right, there was a dead record in the database. Please try to sign up again, it should work now.

Otsikko: Re: I'm having trouble joining a tournament
Walter: What "cannot sign up" message does it show for you?

Kevin: Thanks for testing this new feature, looks like it works :-)

20. Maaliskuu 2003, 08:30:15

I've restored the game.

sundance: I will fix it.
rabbitoid: Yes, it is planned. Later.

4. Maaliskuu 2003, 15:20:13

1) Sure. I will improve the messages.
2) Your Spider Line4 tournament contains only one section. The second round is available only if two or more sections were created.

25. Helmikuu 2003, 08:20:56

ellieoop: It will be added soon.

16. Helmikuu 2003, 19:32:19

I will think it over.

Actually, S-B is only used when two or more players finish a tournament with the same "normal" points. See The first official BK tourney, Reversi 6x6. There are three winning players from the same section because they have the same both "normal" and "S-B" points.

15. Helmikuu 2003, 19:08:39

macoan: You must wait only for your section to be finished. There is only one game left, it won't take too long. This is the free membership limitation.
rabbitoid: It means Sonne-Born points. It is a total sum of points of your opponents who lost a game with you and a half of points of your opponents who drawn a game with you.
alexlee: See your message box.
mcinturff: Only your section counts, until you are a winner and go to the next round. Once the section is finished, you are free for another tourney of the same game type.

15. Helmikuu 2003, 11:42:18

You are lucky, I've just wanted to disconnect but I've seen the "new posts" sign in the last second ;-)

15. Helmikuu 2003, 11:35:14

You know, when I created the code for the very first tournament, it was designed mostly for myself only because I had to test it. So that's why I perfectly know where to find everything and it can be confusing to normal users :-) I will add some hints to the tournament pages.

15. Helmikuu 2003, 11:31:26
Fencer 
dream: Okay, and when you are there, click on "back to the list of game types" and there is the button. I know that it is not very intuitive to find it, I will improve it later.

15. Helmikuu 2003, 11:24:02
Fencer 
dream: You have only prepared the tournament. When I look at the database, the current status is WAITING. You must go up one level [from your tournament page] to the "list of all tournament" and click on "Start this tournament".

14. Helmikuu 2003, 10:34:46
Fencer 
I read all suggestions and I make notes almost daily :-) But I have to put them to a task queue and postpone most of them. It is impossible to work on everything at once. Moreover, if I want to change some feature, it requires lots of tests and it simply cannot be released immediately.

13. Helmikuu 2003, 12:40:29

The creator of a prize tournament gives all prizes. It means that if you create a tournament and promise one-year Brain Rook membership for the winner, you have to purchase it and then let me know which user I should activate. That's all :-)

10. Helmikuu 2003, 08:01:10

Otsikko: Re: Question
dream: Anything that you want to give to a winner. Just describe it at the tournament description, e.g. 6-months Brain Rook memebership etc. And you can limit players signing up, just select the correct checkboxes at the tournament definition page.

9. Helmikuu 2003, 21:22:43

Otsikko: For Brain Rooks
I've just improved the tournament definitions, try them.

9. Helmikuu 2003, 09:38:24

Otsikko: Theme tournaments
One more thing - do you think that I should add a support for "theme tournaments"? For example, a chess tournament where all players must play King's gambit. Would it be interesting or only a waste of (my) time?

9. Helmikuu 2003, 09:38:09
Fencer 
Otsikko: Levels
Hello,
please help me to solve this problem - if one defines a tournament for e.g. Brain Pawns only, a player with this level signs up and after two days [still before the deadline] he upgrades to Brain Knight, should the player be automatically removed from the tournament because he is not a Brain Pawn anymore?

7. Helmikuu 2003, 10:22:12
Fencer 
Uil: You have to wait until the section is completed. It is not clear who is the winner at the current status.
Kevin: No, once all sections of one game type are completed, the new round can be generated. Since this feature was never used before, it is currently available for me only. When I test in on some tournament will completed sections, I will make it available for the corresponding tournament creators as well.

4. Helmikuu 2003, 18:47:17

hrlqns: I've already set "holidays" for monday-wednesday of this week and I will probably extend them. Nobody will time out.

Rose: Yes, why not, we can try everything.
