Espionage would be nice. For that game we need a good time control.

Even without reading the book, I managed to win my latest Championship game against Mark.
Is Mark on the downgrade?
And more importantly: who received the book?

Open Espionage League Brain prize Tourney

You mentioned in your post of the 2 Jan 2012 a second prize of a book by David Sirlin, which would go to dAGGER.

However, I think Sandoz is much more in need of this book "Playing to Win", unless he is just going through a generous streak of gifting games

A Black Rook account too! You could gift it / lend it out for your period of absence. On your return you would the be able to admire the improved stats of your account :)

Joking aside, all the best for 2013 and your New Years resolution!

Emne: FYI..
As of 2013 I will have to announce that I will be giving up gaming for the foreseeable future. I need to focus more on my marriage and family than I do gaming. Gaming had been a huge part of my life for the last 20 years and its about time to set it aside to work on other more important things. My gaming focus the past few years has been very poor, i do not like doing things half way, its 100% or nothing. once I finish up my current games I will be leaving here till further notice. I will not be starting any new games. thanks for the fun times.

Emne: tournament
I think you can save some time, perhaps a lot of time, by not setting it up as a single tournament.

If you set each section (and round) separately than you can start, for example, round 2 once the round 1 sections are decided instead of having to wait for every game to complete.

Emne: Re: new league tournament
Chaos: No vacation. Fischer clock is defined by three parameters:

Time - specifies a time for all game moves in days and hours which is set for each player when the game starts. When a player makes a move, the elapsed time from the last move of the opponent is subtracted from this value. If the time drops to a zero, the player loses by a timeout.

Bonus - the number of days and hours which is added to the player's time left value each time he makes a move.

Limit - the maximum time left value for this game which cannot be exceeded using the Bonus feature.

so 36hr / 24hr/ 3days means
- you have 36 hours to move.
- every time you move, 24 hours is added to your current clock time
- a maximum of 3 days can be built up on you clock, which gives you 3 days to move.

Emne: Re: new league tournament
Just today the (hopefully) final round of Open Espionage League Brain prize Tourney (start april 2010) has started. I don't know if I feel like starting a new tournament, I don't believe in 'fast' anymore. Fisher's clock stil allows for vacations, right?

i currently have a faulty saved position where im missing bomb...i kept it b/c it was a glitch i could use as a distraction... but i never used it. probably never will

Emne: Re: System looses my position continously!?
Aganju: Yes, I am a fan of random placement, and just keep clicking it until I get one that makes me happy, then make a few "tweaks" to it. I'm almost positive there are no problems with modifications when using that method.

Emne: Re: System looses my position continously!?
rod03801: understood. I might actually go for the solution proposed below by 'cookie monster' (I thought it is 'vegetable monster' now??), because I'm afraid someone is willing to put the effort in to find my starting position from last game and track my moves and gain a significant advantage.
(not that it would be needed at my current level of play - you can still win easily against me if you know a bit what you do)

23. november 2012, 17:33:22
rod03801 
Emne: Re: System looses my position continously!?
Aganju: Yes, it SHOULD. (I would think so anyway). But I haven't used the editors in several years. I was just proposing a possible "work around", that would be easier than starting from scratch.

Emne: saved start-up positions
I have no idea on the technical issues encountered here, but I will put in a plug for random start positions. I play by setting my base and bombs and, usually one or two spies in the front row and one or two sappers in the back row and then 'randomly place remaining pieces'. It takes less than 10 seconds to get going.

I doubt it's visible any more a IYT, but there was a game played there between pcron and Ruth that highlighted the dangers of saved positions. pcron apparently used a saved start position and Ruth apparently knew which one. :)

23. november 2012, 15:58:14
Aganju 
Emne: Re: System looses my position continously!?
rod03801: yes that works, but I would have to overwrite or save the changed position every time. It should work without that, right? And the really strange thing isthat it seems to work, but the game comes back to me blank after several hours only.

23. november 2012, 15:57:03
Aganju 
Emne: Re: System looses my position continously!?
Chaos: I mean that I move two or three pieces around, for example take two out and place them switched. I typically do that, so opponents cannot check earlier games to see whee my headquarters is.

Chaos: I imagine it means he moved one of his preplaced pieces.

Aganju, how about if you handle it slightly differently. Go into the Editor, and change it (your "slight modification", and save THAT, and then try to use THAT as your placement? A little of a pain, but it MIGHT work.

23. november 2012, 11:23:59
Chaos 
Emne: Re: System looses my position continously!?
Aganju: What do you do in step 2 'I modify it slightly'. I do not understand what you mean with that.

21. november 2012, 21:32:50
Aganju 
Emne: System looses my position continously!?
Anyone aware of this problem?
1. I load an existing saved position
2. I modify it slightly
3. I submit my move
Everything looks good, the game is shown as it is my opponents turn.
But - some hours later - the game is back in my list, with no position, and I have to do it all over again! I have tried five times for one game, I cannot get it to work. It always comes back to me after some hours with no position.

You can make your own club there and it looks easier to have more tournies going at the same time

Eric Hanson is in-there's a new face .Rip Washington has been invited-he did accept my friend request earlier.I think he was one of the ones on the old yahoo/msn photo group.He hasn't played on IYT in a year--come on fellow sab/esp players, lets get a massive tourny rumbling

took a notion and created a FB group for Sabotage/Espionage players .Saw that Rip Washington aka Saboteur had a FB link in his profile as I was perusing an opponents setups.Have sent him a friend request.Playing some decent games on IYT at the min so will invite all opponents.It's a good platform for posting pics and possibly links to business websites and the like.Anyway,not everyones cup of tea but you can create a FB profile specifically for the group if you're concerned about privacy issues.Could be some fun http://www.facebook.com/groups/272272279545343/

I'll get around to cover pic etc in next day or 2

SL-Mark:  "you had a beginners one a while ago. Who won?"

Resher and TheBlackKnight won The Espionage Beginner's Tournament

I was checking out if Resher and TheBlackKnight still played espionage (that was the main idea of my tournament, to get new talent into the League), and found out I'm still in a tournament dating 2010, waiting for the next round. Completely forgotten about it! Strange you cannot find it anywhere, should be nice to have it mentioned on your main page. Hmmm, I haven't played espionage for some while, can't seem to focuss on the game and play lousy, have to get back on track before the next round starts! Well, maybe that will not be untill 2013 ;)
