Groeneveld: Ik had ook wat problemen met je Engels, is dit de bedoeling:
Groenevelds Alquerque Tournament
Als je iets aangepast wil moet je het maar even zeggen. Promotie kan je het beste ook op het Alquerque forum doen. Vr.gr. Fwiffo

Thad:

offcourse i'm not,
but some people think I speak Spanish....

Groeneveld: Please don't be sore at me! I said what you said. Your English was difficult to understand.

I am only a knight, so I cannot create tournaments.

and then the top players with no standard rating

Yes,how many the better,but not a tournament
with 16 unranked players,that was not my idea

Thad:

is it that difficult,can't imagine

I only "want" that when the top ALQUERQUE players
have finished their tournaments,
they will enter a new tournaments with 64 players
for instance(like i told before)

that wasn't to much to ask??

MsDelete, Mary Jo, TC are together the Number "1", among 19 players of the tournament 'Top 10% Faster Backgammoners for 2006-03 (Hyper Gammon)'

Top 10% Faster Backgammoners for 2006-03

Thanks to all other players!

Top 10% Faster Backgammoners for 2006-03

Congratulations Vikings!

Thanks to all other players!

MidnightMcMedic: He would like a tournament set up when all the present Alquerque tournaments are over with. So any pawn now playing in one can enter this one. With the top 28 established players and the top 36 provisional players in it if people are intereasted.

*scratches head* not sure about that but maybe....

MidnightMcMedic: I think he was asking to have an Alquerque tourney set up.

If you get no answer here groeneveld, you might try to post this on the feature requests board :)

When the running tournaments are over
I find it nice idea,when a tournament will be hold,where all or allmost all of the ranked players will appear,
the 28 players with a rating an let's say 36 with a provisional rating

do you find this a good idea,
and are you free,just
drop a note,to say you will enter

and top 28 players,do specially....

how more of you will enter,how greater the tournament



Groeneveld

Eriisa: lol :) nice :)
too fast for me though ... i prefer fixing bombs :)

YERA WYDDFA

Ok, you've crossed eyed from working the room and the bomb. Take a quick break and break out the backgammon!

5 player sections, one day moves,

Relief from the bomb!

(note: this will make sense if you read the Gen Chat board)

this live tournament starts in less then 30 minutes if 2 more players join
Live tournament some random

Hi one more day to enter for Red
Dragons prize tournament,for a 1 year rook.

Congratulations to sarok on winning Universal Eyes #1 Tournament for all games for 6x6.
Universal eyes all games # 2 will be created now,all are welcome.

Mr. Shumway: heh didnt notice that one :)

BIG BAD WOLF: ok

Mr. Shumway: Someone might be "retired", which means they are still "in the stairs", but are currently not shown on a step and can not challenge or challenge anyone else.

Hrqls: That is a bit strange, because on the list of all game types of that stairs it says 11...

Hrqls:Thank you for the clear consise answer.

fismoluni: so far as i can there are only 10 players on that stairs

maybe the stairs or the game type itself needs some more advertising :)

yoyudax: you can resign your games in the tournament, but the tournament wont be finished before all games of all players in the tournament are finished

so you can resign your games, but will still have to wait for the others to finish

but: when your games in a tournament are finished, and you have no chance to continue to the next round, then you can ask fencer, nicely, if he can remove you from the tournament so you can join a new one. he is the only one who can do it .. so be gentle :)

Hrqls: thx again for the answer, also Vikings, but maybe I am just to stupid, but if I do that all I see is this: http://brainking.com/de/Stairs?tri=103 which is not a lot (if you can see the same link as I)

what do I do wrong?
thx for helping,
fismoluni

Is it possible to resign from an active tournament?

fismoluni: do you mean something like this http://brainking.com/en/Stairs?tri=775
all you have to do is click on the stair that you want to see

fismoluni: you can go to all the public stairs in the left menu, in which you can click on a specific stairs in which you can click on a specific game to see all the participants in the game in that stairs

but there are also stairs inside the fellowships, there is no global list for all those stairs combined i think

when you want to see all the participants in a specific stairs you are in, you can click on the stairs and see their names though

There are still 3 spots left at the happy birthday tiv noi tournament (Anti Line4, 8 players, single elimination), starting on sunday! I'd be glad if it started in time, because it's a birthday tournament ;)
TIA 4 joining :)

Hrqls: thx for the answer, but what I would like to see is a list of all the participants in the stairs and on what stair they are, is that possible? and if not someone knows why?

friendly greetings
fismoluni

Like I had said before, the player who is now under the 1800 limit was over 1800 just a short bit ago, and was probable signed up before his rating dropped. (You can click on the "chart" of the player to see how his rating had just went down).

I've seen strange settings all the time, that's what makes the tournaments interesting - always something different to choose from.

Backgammon and Checkers Assortment

Dolittle: That player was probably unrated when (s)he signed up, but has since become rated.

Nirvana: Beats me but I am thinking it has nothing to do with the rating. Don't know how he could set that up!

Dolittle:

Nor do I see the logic in setting a limit like that and then including unrated players!

I got the same message Nirvana did with a 1746 rating but a player with 1742 rating is signed up. I see no logic in that!!

BIG BAD WOLF: I forgot to add that part
