ClayNashvilleTn: Fencer. He has always insisted that any prize tournament is guaranteed and paid in full upfront before it starts. It's nothing to do with GM's.

Who approves tourneys and the Prizes? Is Fencer the only one or are the GM's?

bumble:

Bry: I have been in contact with Fencer concerning the details! I have submitted a plan where by the winnings would be guarenteed!!!!!
He may not approve it but I am hoping he does!!!!

ClayNashvilleTn: If you held a tournament to catch the first moth that emerged from your wallet - THAT'S big!

bumble: I would consider it spamming. The reality is that it's not going to start anyway is it?

4 million dollars! Thats big!

It might be considered spamming, Clay. If it was a BIG tourney the mods there would probably allow it. On BK.com board too.
Generally though, the everyday sort of tourney is best kept here.

bumble:If one was to want to promote a tourney.........wouldn't you get more people to participate by posting them on General chat. Isn't that where all newbies go?

You missed it, Clay. Probably as well.

bumble:You are Don Kings Chinese cousin? DANG that finally explains why you look like that!

More like his Chinese cousin.

No, NOBODY say it on a public board!

BerniceC: I should have been a special events promoter! The Don King of BK!

sLaMdAnCe: hahahaha it is Clay's latest SPAM....it is everywhere you go at the moment lOLOL

I suspect everyone is still in shock at my generosity in offering 4 Million dollars to the winners of our 4 games.

I will not expect an immediate answer to this question knowing you guys are still in "SHOCK"


But..........how do I get the four games to show up under Fellowship tournaments to sign up for???

Congratulations to Hanis for winning this tournament!!

All other players: thank you for playing

One more day before the start of the following tournaments:

Madmonkeys 'Gammon' Stakes (5)
All 5 Gammon variations

Madmonkeys 'Boat Battle' (6)
A fast 2 day per move tourny with 5 players per section with all 3 boats games

im not sure if our section of the tournament will finish. one of the felowships got delted and since then no games have been finished for ages in our section with that team.http://brainking.com/en/TeamTournaments?tri=
41

or mini reversi cos im starting to like that lol

I was just looking through the team tournaments, found it interesting that the top 3 teams from the first Backgammon team tournament will be back in the 2nd team tournament (along with 1 new team) Will be nice for the previous 3rd place team to get some "revenge" and take the top spot.

But in case Fencer is looking for some more team tournaments:

Spys & Bombs - Fast and/or Small Espionage Team Tournament (Never had these games yet)

The Revenge of the Dark pirates - Dark Battleboats (First tournament is almost over)

Splish Splash II - Battleboats Plus (First tournament is almost over)

Yet again, the race is on - Backgammon Race (First tournament is almost over)

whoo hoo ;)

And to Jason's Games Room for winning the amazons team tournament :-)

Congrats to The Mercenaries for winning the tablut team tournament :-)

Origami: Good luck to you.

I didn't come to this world to have fun. I came with my sword to do the right things ... sounds familiar ?
Regards,
Origami.

Origami: Never claimed to have rhythm or be the missing link. Just put up some fun games I hope. LOL.

nice try ... still not convinced. Playing in 20 different tournaments doesn't change my picture that there is something missing ...
Regards,
Origami.

Jules: Thanks and thanks for a good Pond.

BBW: Make that 3 out of 6.

http://brainking.com/game/Tournaments?trg=8304&tri=367&tmst=0

Thanks, but it doesn't change my opinion. Tournaments should be more dynamic since there are many people involved in this event. It's fine with individual games, but tournament should have it's own rhytm ...
Regards,
Origami.

Origami: When you click on the tourney details it does tell you how many days per move in each tourney. That way you know if it's going to be 3 days per move of more and you can decide if you want a slower tourney or faster one!

it should be changed to Days per Tournament. This is really frustrating to wait and wait and wait for someones's move and than wait and wait again.
It should state let's say 12 days for tournament
or 3 days or whatever. If I like it I join it, if I have no time to play I can choose 30 days tournament.
Please change it. It doesn't make sense.
Origami.

Go to the tournaments page, check the name of the tourney you signed up for an check the date it is supposed to start.

when will the tournament that I signed up for start.

I have set up a tourney to start in about a month, all battleboats games, come and join the fun:)

J/K BBW ;o)

ONLY 5 DAYS LEFT TO SIGN UP!

ALL games for dummies #8

Well you don't have to be a dummy to enter this tournament, but is a GREAT tournament for us that like to play games.... but maybe just not as good in a certain game - OR, a GREAT way to learn a new game!

For players rated 1500 or under

For unrated players (but don't enter if you are an expert)

All Games!

Start date: April 10

... and yes, I will be removing players from the tournament about a day before the tournament starts that is WAY over the 1500 limit to keep it fair for everyone.

Good luck to all!

Oh, yea - maybe a link to the tournament would be good:

Which one?

You left off one of the tournaments with 103 gothic chess players. It is still going on now.

I have been watching the games on and off, and I have been interested in many of the ideas I have seen. I want each of you to look at how much GC (Gothic Chess) is being played – and some of the good ideas that are being used in the games.

--on Apr 03-2005, we have these currently running tournaments…

Committee Gothic—Rex Nihilo, 4 players--Committee Gothic CrossTable




Ides of March—Ed T., 4 players.-- CrossTable

GC Xmas Giveaway—Ed T., 18 players--Crosstable

Middle Gothic—Tony H, 7 players--Crosstable

Under 1700 Ratings (Intermediates)—GC—Tony H, --CrossTable

GC $500.00 Ist prize, Free to Enter—Ed T., 57 players--CrossTable

GC Tournament under 1900 BKR—PawnMe, 8 players--Crosstable

Remembering Jestone—Bwildman, 15 players--CrossTable

2004 third quarter Open #1 GC—Walter Montego, 14 players--CrossTable

Shooting Fish in a Barrel GC—Bwildman, 16 players--CrossTable

Greenknight’s first GC Tourney—Greenknight, 9 players--CrossTable

March Medley—Nirvana—4 players-- CrossTable

That’s a lot of games, folks. That means that there are a lot of stories to tell. I would like to hear some of them. If you are playing in one of the games, post your side of the story—tell us about your favorite win, loss, or struggle. Any thoughts?
