Bahamut Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 So, I lost two vs. Keegan, but in the second game, for some reason Yahoo gave him the win when I had 11 seconds left. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Yahoo felt your lack of time would catch up to you eventually and cut you off right then and there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamoh Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 Kholdstare ended up giving up points in the dangerous direction, but I'm very pleased that Grayfox and Keegan ended up with those victories. Just gotta try and beat the Rusty Buckets though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamoh Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 gNomes lead on more wins! Great job you guys, we may overtake that 4-point hole yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damathacus Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 It's an unfair disadvantage to give us zero points on our byes. Our byes should be neutral. I.e., take our points for three rounds, multiply by 4/3 to give us the equivalent value for four rounds. Don't give everyone else four ronds to win points and only three rounds for us.

kamoh Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 It's an unfair disadvantage to give us zero points on our byes. Our byes should be neutral. I.e., take our points for three rounds, multiply by 4/3 to give us the equivalent value for four rounds. Don't give everyone else four ronds to win points and only three rounds for us.it's actually 10/8.Here's the deal. I can mull around with giving you guys 4, 6, or 8 bye points. Here's the deal though - I'm not going to give you guys 2 points/game for byes unless everyone else plays every game. The reason why I gave only 4 points was twofold: 1) there's no guarantee that the other teams will play every game. 2) you guys didn't have to draft from the bottom of the barrel. So let's say we do a plus/minus setup, where you get a point for winning but lose a point for losing. Well, we're tied with +2, and we have more wins. Yes it's unfair because you have less matches and less opportunity to win, but the likelihood is that you WILL win more matches. Anyways, we'll see what happens...this uneven setup is quite disappointing, and if we had team vs. team battle, it'd be less conspicuous.

kamoh Posted February 3, 2007 Author Share Posted February 3, 2007 I made a mistake on the standings and forgot Uranus' wins vs. amazgr8 - I was actually puzzled about this because the numbers weren't coming out even, but now they are - RB's are a +4, GN a +2, and MK's a -6. I may change the RB's bye advantage to 6 points instead of 4, since that's about the average score anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I keep waiting?You need to keep trying. That's the only way I'll authorize a report - if you're actually trying to play them.EDIT: Reports need to be something else - like max or average points vs., which in this case would be 3, since dPaladin has one win vs. Falchion.

kamoh Posted February 4, 2007 Author Share Posted February 4, 2007 We have interest from two more players - a guy named DolittleSmash, and SoveriegnLegend. This brings our number up to 16 if we add everyone we've got right now. Do the math, that could be four teams of four, and I think it will be. We'll play out the rest of this little tourney - the MetaKnights are fighting for second place, but the gNomes are running for top spot with a LOT of wins necessary.

margoute Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I decided to take a break from chess, coz i dont feel like I am playing good chess anymore. I will not play, I will not watch. I will not even go to the local chess club. At least next week. So... Bahamut will be the Captain of MetaKnights. And... Good Luck to Everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamoh Posted February 5, 2007 Author Share Posted February 5, 2007 if you have people or you want to join but don't want to affect the balance of the tournament, don't worry - I have a plan for uneven teams. I said this about a week and a half ago. I'd just like to let all of you know that I was lying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soveriegn_Legend Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I'm new to all this but I guess I'll be joining now *shrug*. I guess I'll just let Kamoh sort all that out. I'm still not very well informed and will be pretty busy this week since I not only have 2 college classes I need to attend but also some investments I need to keep an eye on as well. All that said, I'm still looking forward to playing chess in some of my free time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
