Subiectul: Re: ok,one more question

anastasia: except for the team tournaments, which are organized by Fencer, you would have to keep track like you've been doing in your fellowship

Anyone who knows better than me - feel free to correct me here

Subiectul: ok,one more question

At least till I think of more,lol....if I get a team together..how do I play other fellowships???

Subiectul: Re: can we pair people up?

anastasia: No, you cannot pair people up yourself using the brainking tournament system. You have to do all that with regular games and call it a tournament (as you seem to be doing)

And your opponent timing out doesn't help your BKR if they time out in the first 2 moves...

Subiectul: can we pair people up?

As some of you knw that post here,in my fellowship I have a guys V gals tourney going but the guys had to send an invite out to the girls.Is it possible when I set up tourneys to pair the people up myself or not? I don't seem to think I can do it but thought I would ask anyways. btw...when a certain person times out agianst me,it just helps my rating,lol

MidnightMcMedic: He timed out on all my games too....but it doesn't bother me. There is probably a good explanation and couldn't be helped. I think most of us have had times like that before.

Subiectul: Just something for everyone to think about

I really think that CameronsDad should be removed from every tourney they enter. If they only going to make 2 move then time out just so they don't lose any BKR then why let them play.

Subiectul: Re:

furbster: I think you should be able to have a random tournament for all lines games, for example, and exclude anyone with over a 2000bkr, for example....

12. Februarie 2006, 22:26:37

Perhaps we eventually get BKR's for randomness?

12. Februarie 2006, 22:25:37

I'm not really sure how that works, with the BKR. I guess you'd have to ask Fencer on that one.

12. Februarie 2006, 22:25:13

I am actually thinking that there is probably no need to give the creator any option to control the BKR level in random tournaments. (At least in it's present incarnation.)

12. Februarie 2006, 22:22:48

Subiectul: Re:

furbster: So when you do a random tournament with several different games and a BKR limit, then the bkr limit would be required for all the games included, I guess?

For example if I am over 2000 bkr in one line game and under in all other line games and I want a random tournament for all lines games for under 2000 bkr, then I would not be eligaBLE TO PLAY IN ANY OF THE GAMES?

12. Februarie 2006, 22:22:27

Also, since you made it a Random tourney, I believe there is no way for your BKR constraints to be automatically checked by the system.

12. Februarie 2006, 22:21:16

Right, the creator decides the "pool" of games that the random games are generated from.

12. Februarie 2006, 22:12:16

Subiectul: Re:

Czuch Chuckers: it is for spider line 4, yes, it'll still work.. but theres nothing random about it thats all, because whatever happens you'll get spider line 4. However if you'd of put spider linetris in there too, you could of got either spider line 4 OR spider linetris.

12. Februarie 2006, 22:10:39

Subiectul: Re:

Mr. Shumway: So the tournament I set up is not even for spider line 4?

Subiectul: Re:

Czuch Chuckers: Yes, the game type is randomly defined for each match).

12. Februarie 2006, 22:02:29

Does random mean you dont know what game you are going to play?

12. Februarie 2006, 21:57:04

Subiectul: Re:

furbster: My bad... I hadnt really thought it out, and my first reaction was that random meant that the draw for who you are going to play is a random draw, I guess i was wrong!

Subiectul: Re:

rod03801: lol, your not missing nothing, at least i don't think you are. Bit strange reall;y, although i've seen somebody do it with extinction chess too. Maybe we're both missing the obvious?

12. Februarie 2006, 21:38:04

Subiectul: Re:

Czuch Chuckers: Ok.. this is probably a dumb question, but how can it be a random tournament with only 1 game (Spider Line 4)? I am sure I am missing something.. lol..

What would happen if an elimination tournament was deleted but some events in it had already started? Would everything disappear as if it had never been created, or would just those games not yet begun be deleted?

Subiectul: Re: Deleting Tournaments

wellywales: There is an "Edit" next to the tournament name which will let you change the tournament name & description - and start date and other little things like that.

Once you submit it, it has to be approve by Fencer before the change happens - which is usually pretty quick.

Another question: Where are wins of Random game tourneys mentioned? Wins of "normal" tournaments: -->finished games -->column "WT"

10. Februarie 2006, 03:01:14

I was just looking at a brain tournament...

150 brains to enter, and you have to get 2nd place to win your 150 brains back.

Plus 30% of the brains entry fee doesnt go back into the prize pool?????

Can someone tell me what sense these brain tournaments make? Am I missing something here? I mean especially in non luck games where anyone is free to use a program, that makes them even less sense to me?
