OverClocked ReMix Chess League

Best Total Score

Best Wins minus Losses

Most Wins

100% score for a week/month

Okay, no no no, bad, bad Kamoh!

Please understand that you just ennumerated 4 awards for the same stat - wins. Which means on any given week, one person wins the first three (*coughchokeJDcoughgag) and then on special weeks, one person wins all four. This is dumb.

Award #1: Most wins for the week (with an added bonus if that player went 100% that week, and played all scheduled games).

Award #2: Most improved player has the highest differential of wins this week minus wins last week, divided by total games played.

Award #3: Dark Horse winner is the lowest ranked player that week to have at least 1 win against a player in the top 5 (3?) (2?) of that week.

Award #4: The anti-award is given to the person with the lowest differential (presumably large negative number) using the same stat as Award #2, or Biggest Fall Award.

There. Now that I went to all that trouble, Kamoh won't use 'em.

Oh, uh, the All-Star idea seems pretty shiny to me, though.

Basically what I want to do here is have the three players with the most awards be in that playoff week I was talking about. Each award is the same value - for now.

Top Score:

-Best Score in One Week

-Best Score in Four Weeks

100%:

-6 wins/1 week

-12 wins/2 weeks

-18 wins/3 weeks

-24 wins/4 weeks

Most Improved:

-White Knight: Greatest Positional Gain in one week.

-Black Knight: Highest (points earned)*(their score - your score).

Other Ideas:

-King's Toilet: Outstanding exploitation of the rules.

-Swiss Trap: 6 draws/1 week.

comments?

we still have time.

When I get home I need some help. I have an over the board tourny friday saterday sunday. and im on a big losing streak. So I need your help to play many games. So put your game faces on cuz I'm going to ask you to play if you are on. I need to get all my losing out now before it attacks my wallet. Thank you. Good luck have fun. Advanced 7 for games. wo0t

[KeeganTheFox]

I'm definitly down for awards. And the team idea sounds awesome!

[kamoh]

The addition of player colors is here.

Each player may choose two banner colors to represent them. Some of you already have...some I've just guessed up to this point.

IM me to fix/change/request your colors.

[Rainman DX]

...some I've just guessed up to this point.

Let's see... that would be... ks_sox_fan? Amirite?

Hmm... Gosh, this is tricky. Do I choose Georgia Tech's White & Gold? Or my alma mater's White & Blue? Or my sig's Red & Blue? So hard...

Got it. Yellow Jackets' Gold & Black, or closest equivalent. Thank you.

EDIT #1: By the way, I think it's no coincidence that Margoute has a dead-even score with moi, but in half the games played. She's really upped her performance from back when she joined OCR, and I'm sure she'd agree. Keep it up, Margo! The Clef's the limit!

EDIT #2: Here's a badge idea. I can crank out the others no problem when I have some time, if you like it.

EDIT #3: Oh, and KAMOH! (is that like, "SHAFT!" or something?) don't forget to change the subject on the thread...

[LongeBane]

Ok, I didn't play ks_sox_fan, and I don't want that half-half win/lose shit. Kthnx

[damathacus]

Yeah, ks_sox_fan hasn't been around for me either.

[margoute]

Oh, right, thank you Rainman I think everyone is improving.

About colours: may I have purple and grey?

Hey guys, I've been using a bad transparency tool for a while now. Can anyone point me in the direction of making good transparencies?

(do .png's have transparency? For some reason my computer won't save .png's in MS Paint)

[dPaladin]

PNGs have transparency. Try saving them in PS or even Irfanview. It's worth noting that in IE the PNG transparency won't work unless you have a workaround. My workaround is using Firefox.

[JohnDriLLL]

i dident know people still used IE. whos up for a game im or pm me

[LongeBane]

wat' IE?

[Rainman DX]

Okay, amidst Yahoo! struggles galore (I swear we should just mozey on over to playchess.com full time), I managed to squeak out a win and a draw with Snerrak. He plays a mean game, no doubt - had me playing my absolute best against him.

Rainman DX vs. Snerrak, 1 1/2-1/2.

Just one more game with Margoute to go, and I'll be done this week.

[Nemitor_Atimen]
