MadMonkey: It seems to me this isn't the first time this sort of problem has arisen after the annual archiving. I think last year or the year before there were problems, too. Maybe not specifically the same exact problem, but pretty similar, I think. I don't remember it clearly now, though.

Pioneer54: You mean the results grids for Tournaments ? If so i posted about it on the brainking board

Ever since the "update", they've been all sorts of messed up! Just wondering why no one has posted on this.

World championship BRK 08 in Random Games

All players regardless their membership can enter this tournament

Starting in a few days:

ALL games for dummies(under 1500&unrated) #20

This tournament is for players rated 1500 or under --AND-- unrated players.

This is a GREAT way to learn new games - or play games without being killed by the expert players.

In the next couple of days, I will go through and remove players who are WAY over 1500 to keep it fair for everyone... so don't worry if you see someone rated 2000+, they should be removed here soon.

Good luck to all:

coan.net: Yup, that's right. I abandonned my Anti-Backgammon team for a while because of the big amount of members until the team tournament starts, then I return.

TarantinoFan: Yes, once a team tournament starts - all games will continue until the end (all next rounds will start also) - even if the person leave the fellowship team.

I believe they have to stay on the team until it starts - but once it starts, it will let them leave to join any other fellowship team they want.

So they can leave your team as soon as the tourney starts and go back to their old team to be able to paricipate in f/s challenge matches but their games for your team still continue? I thought that once you were in a game for a f/s you had to stay until the tournament/challenge ended?

If that is the case I will let my team know about it so that any that miss out can participate with another team in the team tourney but still come back to us if they wish to play with us in our f/s challenges.

I do understand your point about multiple teams though. When you think about it it might mean your own f/s playing your own f/s in the last section. And keeping it to one team allows more f/s a chance to participate.
