Charlie Reams I can add other tournament formats when the time comes. | |
Dave Robjohns Reminder - this is taking place tonight at 8pm, with signups from 7:30 in aptochat | |
Scott Babb Hi guys, am I not in this tournament or am I still to be assigned a match? | |
Adam Dexter Is it down? | |
Fiona T tis for me | |
Sam Cappleman-Lynes Why have I lost my game against Anthony? It's still in progress! | |
M S R I think the game is down again. | |
Dave Robjohns Sorry Scott if I didn't make it clear - people had to confirm their signups in the chat from 7:30. I'll try to sort something out for you when apto's up and running again | |
Dave Robjohns Haha, I was wondering that Sam!! | |
Scott Babb Ok noted, cheers Dave | |
Simeon Murray Sorry all
| |
Anthony Endsor Sam, I apologise. I appear to have won rather unjustly against you. I presume you got that last numbers game before the crash? | |
Dave Robjohns Server has died for all of us for the moment I think :( We'll give it a bit longer but looking likely this will turn into a tourney over several days :(
| |
Sam Cappleman-Lynes Anthony, you can see from the recap that we both solved the final numbers game (that was the last one I saw before the crash) and our scores are tied. Obiviously no idea what happened to make the game end :) | |
Anthony Endsor All we can hope for is the game will somehow reset itself when apterous comes back up. | |
Dave Robjohns Indeed, otherwise for that game I'd suggest a rematch which I can add to the tourney :) Very odd bug | |
Anthony Endsor Yeah that'll be the answer if it doesn't reset Dave. | |
Sam Cappleman-Lynes At least for Sudden Death, a rematch is essentially equivalent to resuming the game! The only difference could be Player 1 / Player 2 status. | |
Sam Cappleman-Lynes Chat logs actually says our game was a draw: https://www.apterous.org/chat.php?base=1587842400&dir=earlier | |
Anthony Endsor Very true Sam. | |
Anthony Endsor Oh? Well as far as we're concerned it's still ongoing so we'll take Dave's suggestion I think. | |
Fiona T Sounds very similar to my top dog bug the other day https://www.apterous.org/ticket_view.php?ticket=5453
| |
Anthony Endsor Thanks for that Fiona. Yes it looks like something similar. I'll add a comment to it to report this. | |
Dave Robjohns I suppose neither of your ratings changed either so maybe the colours are completely arbitrary!
| |
Sam Cappleman-Lynes I have an ongoing Sudden Death against Soap which is currently on round 73 or something, so it's not a limitation of the format | |
Dave Robjohns Looking at the logs, the server is currently being reset. Hopefully we will therefore be able to resume after that. When it happened earlier today downtime was around 20 minutes, so I hope to be able to continue the tournament around 9pm. | |
Anthony Endsor Apparently we should be back up in 20-30 minutes. Charlie has commented on the forum. :) | |
Anthony Endsor Looks like our comments have crossed in the post Dave lol. | |
Steve H Which forum is Charlie's comment in Anthony? | |
M S R Here Steve-http://c4countdown.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=12&p=187001&sid=dfefd3787985a3a9645133b67fef6d6f#p187001 | |
Steve H Found it, thanks, Matthew | |
Dave Robjohns In the wait, here are the tables:
| |
Steve H It's baaaack | |
Show all comments | |
Anthony Endsor Yay :) | |
Steve H Dave, I hope u run more of these. I look forward to it | |
Dave Robjohns Yeah I'm definitely planning on doing more :) Got uni exams this month but should be a fair few of these during summer! | |
Steve H Good luck with the exams | |
Anthony Endsor Yeah, good luck with your exams Dave, and we look forward to more of these in the future :) |
Notes from the organizer: Not sure why I've come up with such a morbid name, but I will be running a Sudden Death Numbers tournament on Saturday!
The idea of the comp is that literally *anyone* can win this tournament - even the best numbers players slip up from time to time, and on tough rounds, being 1 closer than your opponent is enough.
The tournament should begin at 8pm with signups in apto chat from 7:30, but feel free to sign-up here so I can see rough numbers and ping everyone a notification via a comment on the day.
Will most likely work as a group stage followed by knockouts (depending on numbers).
I say 'Saturdays' as if this runs decently I will look to host more of these, bringing in other formats and letters games - things like Aegilops, Junior & Omelette lend themselves well to this format. Apto doesn't have these as a built in tournament format but it's easy enough to set up (simply 1 round games)
Hope this sounds appealing - see you there if so!
