2. Septembre 2009, 02:46:21 Sujet: Ponds  There has been a idea of starting the next round in ponds immediately after all players submit their bids. In this way, it would be possible to finish a pond within hours or even minutes. Of course, the maximum time per move would still apply, however the creator would have the option to set as low time limits as one minute. I have already informed Fencer about this idea, but I would like to know how popular such ponds would be. So if anyone would post their comments, it would be mostly appreciated. 2. Septembre 2009, 02:58:19 Sujet: Re: Ponds Pedro Martínez: That sounds like a great idea, so it would be like a "live" pond and you stay and play or go for a swim lol 2. Septembre 2009, 03:05:20 Sujet: Re: Ponds alexlee: I should also mention that this idea is not to be interpreted as an effort to change the ponds as we know them. There would be two types of ponds available: the regular ones and these new "live" ponds. 2. Septembre 2009, 03:13:09 Sujet: Re: Ponds  Pedro Martínez: I like it too. Of course there are going to be those who are confused, (LOL) and don't understand the implications of the difference. I wonder what a good name for these ponds would be? People could post suggestions for that too. 2. Septembre 2009, 11:02:46 Sujet: Re: Ponds  Pedro Martínez: as long as the automatic scripts that determine timeouts keep being executed only every few minutes, having a time setting of 1 minute is probably not viable... Other than that, I like the idea. Though timeouts will be much more easy to spot... and so may rise the number of complaints against people "dragging" the pond by moving at the very last minute just like we have now in tournaments... 2. Septembre 2009, 11:29:40 Sujet: Re: Ponds pauloaguia: But what was suggested is that the pond round is ended as soon as everyone has placed the bet, or until the regular time (whatever it is) elapses. so no one-minute timeouts. I like it too. 2. Septembre 2009, 11:52:28 Sujet: Re: Ponds rabbitoid: I was commenting on this sentence: however the creator would have the option to set as low time limits as one minute 2. Septembre 2009, 11:55:05 Sujet: Re: Ponds pauloaguia: Didn't see that. No, that would work only if all are from the same time zone or night owls :) 2. Septembre 2009, 12:04:32 Sujet: Re: Ponds  rabbitoid: A live solution, similar to poker tables, should be the preferred attitude. My opinion.  2. Septembre 2009, 12:15:27 Sujet: Re: Ponds Fencer: Theoretically yes, but I don't think it would work in practice: The average pond now has enough trouble collecting 16 reluctant players from all over the planet. for a live game, they'd all need to be present at start. With poker, it doesn't matter much if someone drops out of the table, but in ponds you need to stay until the end. Difficult too. 2. Septembre 2009, 12:38:29 Sujet: Re: Ponds rabbitoid: Actually I think live Ponds could attract more players. Nowadays there are many that won't play because the Pond always lasts for at least a couple of weeks and they may not control their availability to play during that period... For instance, whenever I go on vacation, I have to stop signing up for ponds over 1 month in advance! Live Ponds might not suffer from this syndrome... Or they may, it all depends on the time limit for each move and of how people decide to (ab)use it... 2. Septembre 2009, 13:07:39 Sujet: Re: Ponds pauloaguia: I don't think so. I have stopped even trying to start one day ponds, they take longer to fill than 2 day ones. 2. Septembre 2009, 15:01:48 Sujet: Re: Ponds rabbitoid: The average pond now has enough trouble collecting 16 reluctant players from all over the planet. for a live game, they'd all need to be present at start. That is exactly the reason why I brought it up here. My guess is that live ponds would stir the interest and it would not be too difficult to get 16 players for a game. But it's only my "guess" and I wanted to know what other people think of it. Anyhow, I like grenv's idea of allowing Pawns to play live ponds. 2. Septembre 2009, 15:36:09 Sujet: Re: Ponds Pedro Martínez: Agree, bringing pawns in would change everything. But that's contrary to the policy of limiting pawns. After all, the site needs to show a profit. I and others had proposed long ago to allow pawns to participate in one pond at a time. Another possibility is to reduce the holy number of 16, make it a variable. Maybe the 20000 and 500 too, while we're at it. We've always been following the rules defined by, eh, I forgot his name, but... |
