Tulip: If the tournament creator sets the game type to "1 win match", a draw leads to a rematch. The advantage of the lower rated player only occurs if it is a "normal game".

basplund: Even a prize tournament ? I admit that it should be a very rare case, but taking the BKR at the start at the game, or even at the start of the tournament (in which case it can be a compensation for having had the harder pairings), seems better. But perhaps not better that selecting the winner at random :-)

Subiectul: Re: Single elimination
nabla: I suppose it must be the BKR at the finish of the game, which counts as always.
In theory you're right, but I doubt that anyone would do that much effort to win a tournament.

Subiectul: Re: Single elimination
basplund: Makes me wonder, are we talking about the lower BKR at the time the game is started, or at the time it is finished ? In case of the latter, one player could sacrifice BKR points in order to win a tournament when he has a drawish position in the final.

WellyWales:  Thanks Welly!  I didn't find those rules on my own. In some games, like Logic, a draw is fairly common. I first thought my opponent had higher BKR, but now I see it was in fact lower, so that explains the outcome

If a draw occurs due to the game rules or an agreement of the players, the player with lower BKR advances to the next round (in case of equal BKRs, the player who did not start the game - black player in most games)

Subiectul: Question
Hi there, I have a general question: on the game pages below the board, it says how many games of this type the two opponents have played and how they ended. Like

7 : 8 (= 2)
12 : 4 (= 0)
12 : 6 (= 0)

What do those numbers in parentheses mean? I wonder that since I saw them for the first time

If you hover the smiley, some browsers show it's code. Or at least you can right click the image, and check it's properties - the name of the image is the code of the simley.

TexasToest: I have not seen anything strange on this (or any) site. On the http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=52 discussion board, there are a couple of links on the top about checking for spyware and such which is always good to run those every once and awhile. (Which reminds me it's about time for me to do the same.)

Does anyone here know anything about ContactLink?  Suddenly, tonight, on this site, I started getting unsolicited ads off of user created text.  It bypasses my popup blocker.  I'll let you know if I get it on other sites online.  But, if you know how to get rid of it, and/or where I might have gotten it, please let me know.  Thanks!

Do those results include Fellowship challenge matches or just Tournaments?


A thought (good for a Sunday morning don't you think lol)
As Team Tournaments take so long (well some of them anyway) how about we have more of them starting regularly.
Say maybe start 5 one month, 5 different the following month and so on throughout the year

Fencer: Could you explain how the BKR/Rankings lists on the Fellowship page are worked out please.
Lots of Teams are not even on the list, does it only include results in Team Tournaments you have done well in ?
Also lots of Teams have a BKR, but dont have a ranking, why ?

Thanks

p.s. morning by the way

I know some places play a small strait at 1-2-3-4-5, and a large strait as 2-3-4-5-6. So for players who are use to playing with those rules, it can be a little confusing.

On this site - small strait is 4 dice in a row (1-2-3-4, 2-3-4-5, 3-4-5-6), and large strait is 5 dice in a row (1-2-3-4-5, 2-3-4-5-6)

a small straight is one using 4 die.. 1-2-3-4 or 2-3-4-5 or 3-4-5-6 a large straight is one using all 5 die.. 1-2-3-4-5 or 2-3-4-5-6
