Skaarjj, it finally came through. Stan didn't want to give it to me at first, but it did come through. I didn't the usual e-mail notification, either.

Well, in light of the last two posts, maybe I should just ask...

Adrock,
Have you moved yet, after I moved Qe2?
It's been all weekend, and I'm just gettin' a little anxious.
Take your time...I don't mean to rush you.

mobrul

hhmmmm...It's my turn, but no email form stan to tell me so, I had to go check. IU'd been thinking for the past day adn a half thar WJ hadn't moved yet.

Not sure what to tell y'all about the email problems. I don't bother with the email notification because I check the site at least once a day anyways. Is it possible you have the option turned off? If the problem persists, email Stan himself about it. He is very good about helping folks out.

Hey maninacan, if you want I have some time to burn today, we can get a few moves out of the way.

Hmm, for me email notification has been working well, even though I do go check once a day or so, just in case! I'm a pretty happy camper, mainly because I am KICKING ASS, heh. -> http://www.stansco.com/cgi-bin/nc_game.cgi?112452

Your pal, -doc-

Since I am the tournament organizer, I declare WebShaman disqualified from the games!! (Well, not really, but since he is kicking my butt, I wish I could kick him out ...)

I think doc must really be kicking arse...he doesn't seem to have any active games assigned to him...did you win doc?

Skaarjj, doc is still playing.
His active games don't show up under "Active Games where it is your turn" right now. You have to click on "All Active Games" or just go here directly.

Heh, BeeKay, I'm comin' for ya!!!

Hey, my game with benev is going slowly, 4 days now, and no response to my last Check! If anyone else wants to challenge, or be challenged, let me know, I'm getting bored with too much waiting. :/

Your pal, -doc-

You can get to the game through my Player Page at:
(me!)-> http://www.stansco.com/cgi-bin/nc_ppp.cgi?9790

or go directly to the game page at:

ok, my game is over
i've lost!

Hey Doc, you have been challenged so bring the noise !!!!

Laser Chess!!
I haven't played that since my Amiga 2000 days. I've been looking for it for PC for months, but always ended up with some bunk knock-off. I'm so happy that I finally found it as I remember having played it.

Waiting for you to move, BeeKay....

You won WebShaman. I had resigned the game. No more moves to be made Well played ... you really caught me with my pants down!

OH great, I'm in two games now, with the only winners so far in the tourney. WebShaman, maybe we should call our game a draw and let you play someone else, to keep with the whole tourney deal? Optionally, I can simply kick your butt now, just to get it out of the way, heh heh. Benev, where are you?

Your pal, -doc-

Doc, don't forget about me. I won first.

Sasha »

Finished beating Skaarjj a few minutes ago.

Who is my next opponent?

Yes...I've been distracted latley...as I was teling WJ. I was about to forfeit when WJ up and beat me.

Oh. Really? Sorry that I posted that here, then...hmmm...Doc has a point. Ok, BeeKay, you got this thing rolling, how do we handle it? Do I play Doc further, or....well, who is the next opponent on the list?

Dammit! Now I feel really stupid....

OK, Doc, I am prepared to let you off the hook...we could call it a draw...is that allowed? How does one do that?

I think one would ofer a draw (as their move) and the other would accept. I wouldn't feel stupid, a bunch of chaotic chess playing back & forth, we should still be able to work things out, no? At worst case, all the other games outside the system would be just games, for fun.

Your pal, -doc-

Ok, in the interest of the tourney, I will do that...Doc, since it is your move, you have to put up the 'request draw'. Sorry about the confusion Doc...guess I sorta 'jumped the gun' so to speak...*sigh*

Who's next on the list for me to play against? Anybody know?

Oh yeah...Air Force rules!!!

[This message has been edited by WebShaman (edited 05-14-2002).]

Is this going to be the new page? http://www.sashadesign.com/chess/ - (needs updating btw)

or do we have something else in the works?

If you want to watch me and Doc, we are over here http://www.stansco.com/cgi-bin/nc_game.cgi?116538

Ok, Doc and I have decided on a 'draw'. Who's next? I'm rearin' to go...ya got lucky, Doc!

Hah! My rating (such as it is, after this one "completed" game) just went up to 2474, woo! I'm kicking ass now, heh heh.


Your pal, -doc-

A tournament like the one we have set up here can take a while to move along. We have to wait for all the games in round one to be completed before making the round two pairings. So you are more than welcome to get some other games going on the side if you wish. No big deal at all.

If you wish to stop a game you should use the "request cancel" option rather than the "request draw" option. There is no reason to stop any extra games you have, though. Play all you want.

Later this week I will update my tournament page so that all can see 'at a glance' what is going on so far.

Just relax and enjoy ...

Updates on me vs Doc, lol I lost but not by much

Almost had a checkmate on him a couple times, but he was just to good to be traped.

I knew I had been beaten so i resigned, great match Doc I look forward to a rematch sometime

Yah, no doubt, Synthetic had me sweating more than a few times, from the beginning I felt he had me running all over the place, too many sacrifices! But I got stubborn, pulled my head in and survived. (My Queen went on a shopping spree, which didn't hurt! :-) Really, a great game, I'm looking forward to playing you again, maybe this time I can get white, and force my favorite Queens pawn opening? ;-) We'll see.

Another update, I heard from benev, game http://www.stansco.com/cgi-bin/nc_game.cgi?112452 - and he's going to forfiet the game - he's swamped under too many things to do, and I have him on the run currently. The forfeit time should come up by May 17th, assmuning he doesn't get the chance to get over their and resign. If he bows out of the tournament, where does this leave us?

BTW, I am currently "gameless". I'm a bit swamped now, so a fats-paced game like my game with Synthetic would probably kill me, but I'm open for a slower paced game, say a few moves a day? Let me know, or maybe we could start matching the players who have already finished.

Your pal, -doc-

Doc, feel free to challenge me. A move a day or so.

Open for challenges.

Turn pace is up to you. I Prefer 2-3 moves a day.

Dark

Just sent you a challenge, Dark. Are you up to it? The loser gets scalped...except for BeeKay, because he's running the thing...how's your hair, btw?

Coolness, WJ, you have a challenge in the mail! You can choose white or black, I'll try and twist it into my favorite opening either way, heh heh.

Your pal, -doc-

Just drawed my game with Synthetic

open for challenges

I don't mean to rush you...but it's been 10 days since I last moved. Come on man, I'm getting, well, bored over here. Thought we were here to play a chess game, not stare at some multi-colored squares...Looks like everyone else is moving along quite nicely, let's try to catch up, huh?

mobrul

One question...is someone updating the Java viewer for matches to show the new games? Is there a way to do this? Or to watch the other games in progress?

I was wondering the samething actually.
