Kookaburra: What I meant is GT has a active owner, and a paid full time programmer. This site just needs a new owner with passion to move it forward. This sites code is wrote that way, far brilliant to any out there, just his passion went from his game site to his family. I understand your frustration, but Im one that has teams in all the team tournaments so Im trying to keep them going and asked coan a year ago to lower the minimum players, in which he did. Ive been trying to get a checker team together for many moons. Just not many play checkers, sadly.
Kookaburra: This is a very good site to play games in. Perhaps you could set up some tournaments and you will see that players will sign up. It seems a shame to have full membership and only play a few games.
Crosseyed Mary: I am involved mainly with the checkers and chess fraternity there and we seem to be doing ok. It has a very good turn based implementation of checkers there. The best I’ve seen. Especially with the Restriction and 11 man ballot. Also have a couple of other clubs as a sideline.
Kookaburra: I am already a member in Goldtoken and have been for many years. To be honest I do not like the layout there. So I just play regular games.
Crosseyed Mary: If you join Goldtoken let me know. I am kookaburra there and own a number of very active clubs. And also some clubs I assist with in chess com. I can help you. It is a bit tricky when you first join a site. We also have a system in Goldtoken where when new people join we arrange some games for them from some friendly people.
Kookaburra: You could do it but I think you will find that you are flogging a dead horse at times. The apathy is from the players in this site. I cannot navigate around Goldtoken peculiar way of joining team games or signing up for games.
Crosseyed Mary: I didn’t mean to criticise. But I am in the Checkers and Russian checkers and both haven’t taken off. I don’t really like backgammon much and so far it has taken off. I am doing ok in them. Maybe people just play individual games here and clubs are not so important. That’s ok. People play what they like.
moistfinger: I agree when you can’t get 4 teams of 4 players for a game. It isn’t very active. In Goldtoken I have a number of clubs and can get 40 checker players in a tournament. It is a good site here. Just not very active. And the clubs here don’t seem to do much.
moistfinger: It is an active site but perhaps not in the areas you would like. What may have caused some decline was when the owner made it clear he had lost interest in this site.
Kookaburra: Yes they can but only join one team per tournament game. So if they are in several fellowships it makes difficult to get enough teams to sign up.
I was looking forward to the Russian Checker Team challenge and it didn’t start. It would appear at this site clubs do almost nothing and team challenges almost non existent. Is there any hope for this to improve????? I am looking to leave currently as this doesn’t seem like a very active site. I am new here.
DeaD man WalkiN: some people simply don't know the rules. Don't get angry; refer them to read the rules, and to stop playing if they don't like them.
Aside from that, I can understand that the doubling cube can be an extremely annoying thing, especially if you don't understand it - your opponent roles a lucky 6-6 and turns the game around, and then has the audacity to double... but that is Backgammon. [this is an explanation, not an excuse!] He needs to learn to use the cube. And if he cannot lose, he should go play with dolls instead.
DeaD man WalkiN: So its a game using the beating cube? A multi game match? Well you can start by offering a double before you roll your first set of dice.. Still not sure why he is angry?
Carnie: His BKR is higher than yours so he should have won outright; the fact he didn't beat you and asked for a draw means points for you and points taken away from him.
Gabriel Almeida: Since Jan 2018 after fencer announced the site would not be maintained as it was in the past and no guarantees, all I can say is I've had no down time.
Crosseyed Mary: Not since about june 2014. Originally it was a problem with paypal and treating the sale of brains like gambling. I remember him talking about but dont quote me. I just know you cant manually buy them and since all the cheating with brains all brains for membership is done manually by fencer now.
ughaibu: i don't think 'Handicap' is implemented - you could only have players agree to voluntary make a poor move or move sequence as another way of 'Handicap' for them. There is no way to start with a piece removed.
