Cassius, I think he said yesterday that if the server is close to overload etc, the script that starts the tournies, will not start until a suitable time

I have found that the tournaments auto-starter runs about every 1-2 hours, which will start any tournament which is past it's start time.

BUT - what you probable notice is my "Fast Start" tournament, which when they have enough people to start, what I do is just change the start date of the tournament ahead 1 day so they start faster - so they will start the next time the "Auto-Start" runs, and not have to sit there full waiting for the time to run out.

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

That would be nice Fencer - but then again, the problem I see with that is that probable once a month you will get the question "Hey, I had a tournament in the list which is now gone, and not started yet!" - which of course would be the case until the tournament auto-start is ran.

Well, it should not happen anymore when our overloaded hardware is upgraded.

if the tourny has a rating limit,will the new system filter players when it automaticly starts the tourny?

10. Luglio 2004, 14:51:05

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

if you have won a round of the tournament then you can either choose a pawn yourself and tell either linda or fencer.. or if you don't know of anyone, then ask a few people if they do :) there is always someone who knows a pawn who would like a membership :)

I've changed my maharajah tournament so it now offers a 6 month knight membership for the winner! I need ONE more person to sign up and I'll start it!

14. Luglio 2004, 08:52:33

(When I say I'll start it, I mean I'll reset the start date so the system starts it today!)

Llawer o Baben! T-SHIRT Tournament

The prize is a brainking.com T-shirt to the winner of the size and colour of his/her choice (as available).
I've fluttered my eyelashes at Fencer and he's going to flutter his eyelashes at Mrs Fencer to handpaint the words 'Tournament Winner' or 'Tourney Winner' as an addition to the current wording.

If the tourney is won by a pawn then a prize of a 6 month brain rook membership will be offered as an alternative.

Argomento: Re: Backgammon Prize Tourney
Heh, I've just signed up as well :-) So if I am the winner [which is VERY unlikely], the second one can get the prize.

Argomento: First team tournament
I have postponed the tournament deadline to Friday, 16th July 2004. The reason is that I had no time to perform all required tests and without tests it would be too risky to start it.

Wow - 18 teams are now set up - so 3 sections with 6 teams each!

Then the top team from each section will go and face each other. This is going to be cool - even if say I do really bad and lose all my games, if my teammates do really good, we can still go and win a section!

ow about 6 sections with 3 teams each.... make for a lot more in the final round, and more fun and games for most?

But then each person will only get 2 games.

How will it work anyway?
Who does play who?
How many games per player?

Can't you just wait for Friday? It would be hard to explain without showing real examples.

Argomento: Quick question....
In a tourney of switched colours, 8 players per section, how many slots would a person need to participate?

And what if I changed it to a maximum of 4 players per section?

And last one - if I change it to 4 players per section, does that mean I need at least 8 players?

15. Luglio 2004, 11:44:34
Fencer 
10 is all cases.

15. Luglio 2004, 11:45:23
Fencer 
And you need at least the number of player which is defined as "minimum players" for the tournament.

Thanks :o)

Oh, but how can it be 10 slots in all cases? I have 7 people signed - maximum section number is 8, so it would only create one section with all 7 players.

Each player would play 2 games with each other person, making 12 slots needed?

15. Luglio 2004, 11:52:16

Argomento: Re:
Correct - 12 slots for 7 players - 14 slots for 8 players

15. Luglio 2004, 11:53:27
Fencer 
No, it's always 10 required empty slots.

15. Luglio 2004, 11:56:52

Argomento: Re:
OK. So you allow them to go over their limit?

15. Luglio 2004, 11:59:18
Fencer 
Yes. One or two slots over limit don't matter in this case.

harley: I have entered your Maharajah Chess tourny, but it says only 4 players and you have 7 (well 8 now lol).
If there are too many just remove me :o)

15. Luglio 2004, 12:15:16
harley 
Eek, it shouldn't say 4 players! It hasn't been THAT long since I ran a tourney, I'm sure!

How about if I make it 4 players per section? Would they only need 6 slots then? Now MM has joined I can do that. (Thanks MM)

15. Luglio 2004, 12:53:40
Fencer 
No, they still need 10 slots.

15. Luglio 2004, 13:00:07
coan.net 
For "1 game for 2 players", a player will ALWAYS need 5 game slots open (Even if they only start 4 games, or even if they start 7 games) - the computer just checks for 5 free slots.

For the 2 games per 2 players, players will need 10 slots open. Even if a player starts 6 or 8 games, they will still need 10 games slots open.

15. Luglio 2004, 13:11:02
harley 
Right! Thanks :o)

15. Luglio 2004, 13:19:45

Of course it's not the final solution but I had no time to improve it :-)
