I want to thank all the paying members of BK who joined the Tournament Talk fellowship and made it a fun place to be for a short while. The concensus seems to be that the fellowship is obsolete at this point, as we have a fine public Tournaments DB right here to post on, with the best moderator anyone can ask for. Also this is a place where pawns can participate, which adds to its value. I agree with this assessment and am therefore closing the TT fellowship with this post as an explanation to the members who may not have read the most recent postings in the club. Thanks one and all for your participation & support in making the club a success...and remember, we're on the best gamesite on the net so let's have some fun. :o)

This is shaping up to be a doozy folks. We have 13 entrants so far and the list is mounting. I urge you to jump aboard if you haven't already. This will be true championship checkers as its best. And a lot of fun to boot. TNP

The sign up date ends Christmas Eve...so if your not currently in a tournament at that time...SURE :)
I will post another prize tourny after the 1st of the year:)

I am afraid that you are already playing another tournament.

MAY I PLAY IN THIS TOURNAMENT

It depends on final score of section players. If more than one player has the same points and S-B, all these players continue to the second round.
See also the bottom of FAQ page.

Duh.... Thanks Fencer :)

Calling all Linetris players,past present and future. KM Linetris Tourney slated to begin Jan.2,2004. This tourney is for everyone and anyone. Winner gets..... to gloat! :-)

Does more than one player from each group advance in a tournament which has 13 players in 3 groups?

You can track your tournaments at Profile page.

Is there a way to keep track of my tournaments from the home page? When all my games are finished, but the tournament is still running, I have no way to access this tournament information easily. Any suggestions?

In honor of the KM fellowship's "adopt a pawn" program,the winner recieves a 1 year rook membership to BrainKing.com.If the winner is already a paid member,they may sponser a pawn,to become a member.Have fun,and pawns please remember to leave enough openings for the tournament. :)

I will be starting up Super Fast Tourney #1 in about 16 hours. We need one more chess player.

1 day moves, 5 people per section. Pawn & Knights need to make sure they have 5 available slots

nosovs...i had changed my name temporarily due to personal issues..nothing weird going on.

I have received notification from server that move was done by Satan Seed instead Princess Kam KM. What it does mean Fencer ?

This is an opportunity for everyone to participate and the best to rise to the top. Unrated players and Pawns welcome. Sign up ends December 28. Good luck all.

The deadline has been extended 2 days because we need one more chess player. We have 9 and we need 10. All skill levels are represented.

new tank tourn, panzer attack, i'd be pleased to see you join whether to cut your teeth or enact a slaughter! lol :-)

Thanks I'll take a look.

Necromancer, just click on Tournaments on the left side. then just scroll down tell you find the kind of tourney you want to play in. But as a pawn member you can only play in 1 tourney at a time...

Can I sign up for a tournament? I like backgammon and checkers pretty good but I don't know to get in a tournament.

come one and all and join me in a birthday celenraion!!! In honor of my birthday i have created Princess' Pente Party.

I was once a web tv user.. and was having so many problems as well.. When I bought a new box.. it seemed to go away.. I don't exactly know the techincal term.. but, it has something to do with the users digits!!

:) Go get a new box..

I'm new to this board...but NOT new to the accusations of "winning because I am a member". My hubby's comment (who is also a member) to this is he looses all the time lol! : ) We think it would take a VERY gifted programer to work it out so that only members win! Geez!!!! In gammon games it's always a little luck and the roll of the dice...good luck to all! And stop whining if you lose a game!!

LOL Whisperz! Ohhh yeah!! I knew there must be a reason!

LMAO Bumble *eyes watering* Ouch!

LMAO @ bumble

I would like to congratulate Whisperz to even dare to use the words 'harley' and 'splits' in the same sentence.

Harley ... you and me both are on the "low doubles" and "difficult splits" lists ... didn't you get Fencer's PM (j/k) W:)

zuggie, private messages are really unnecessary thankyou.. especially in order to tell me that as a paid member I am a cheater.

Just curious, Zuggie. What do you suppose happens when two paid members play? That could throw a spanner in the works.
And you've won loads of gammon games, your rating is way higher than mine. I really don't see how you come to that conclusion.

I would like to invite all Pawns to join in my Pawns Only Tourney newly creatd. It is located on the main tournament list...GOOD LUCK!!

That is the silliest thing I've ever heard Zuggie. You have whined about this before on another discussion board.
It's very paranoid of you.
If you truely believe that silliness, WHY bother playing here?

:o{P``````

does anybody that's answered here know where the dice are generated from and who's in control of that part of the site...is it in a vault or locked box so there's no tampering...????....i'll bet it sits right next to some fatass in his recliner along with a bowl of popcorn and he gets a big giggle and a jerk out of what he gives for dice to non-payers and then all you people stick up for him....maybe we should give bin laden a medal for his bravery in causing the towers to collaspe too....or maybe that was my imagination too...maybe all those people just went for a big joyride into the towers..if the dice generators not in a locked vault of some kind where nobody can get to it then it's near busy hands that have favorites they like to win.....or maybe just unfavorites they like to see lose..

IF not more right harl? lol

Thats not true at all, zuggie. I play backgammon and the variants a lot and I lose just as much as I win.

Zug i dont play the game much, dont care about the dice and I gotta tell you if you honestly believe paying members get better dice well then you are , er , ah... sadly mistaken for a nicer way of putting it

Zuggie I'm on webtv and they don't do to well for me.I'm a paying member.

i'm on webtv so all that crap is moot to me...i know the dice change and i know paying players get better dice. i guess when your the one getting the good dice it blinds you to what your opponets getting....or maybe you know but don't want the secret to get out....the dice are fixed here for paying players!

I sent zuggie a personal message, but I'll share in here also.

When I first joined this site, I would have 5-6 different windows up, each with a different type of game (Backgammon, nackgammon, etc...) - And I seen where the dice images loaded wrong all the time. (Since all the game games looked at the same parameter or something - Fencer could explain). The solution I found that works is to only have 1 gammon game up at a time - and since then I have not see the dice "change" on me at all.

I know at one time Fencer said he could fix the problem, but I'm not sure if he ever did....
