Hi folks,

The May tournies are open for signup in the usual place!

There was an error with the February, March, and April "no cube" backgammon match tournies, where they were set up that you played each side (e.g., two games per opponent) rather than just one. With match games, there's no reason for the "each side" thing, we just do that in single-game tournies. So the May "no cube" backgammon match tournies are just one game against each opponent instead of two.

Enjoy your (tourney) games!

Can't you create an "everybody against everybody"? With everybody in the same group? let's say, if we have 20 players, we have 19 games simultaneously?

Hi,

We could, sure, that's called a round-robin tournament and the site already has the ability to do them (I'd just make the target section size the same size as the number of players). Is there general interest, everyone? I'm worried about having too many tournies, but...

Oh, well, you can create and see how many people join. I will, at least for chess and reversi.

If and when we get the time to do it, there will be an announcement.

Is there a way we could go down the list of tournaments and click each one we want to join then sign up rather than having to do every one individually?

That's the "message of the day" area, we don't leave the tourney announcement there for long. To sign up for tournies, click the "Tournaments" link on the Games tab (just to the left of your games list).
