In others news, the EC table will automatically update once a game is played. Thanks to Dave Robjohns for helping to set it up.

Johnny Canuck My money's on Rex so far!

Andy SC

Andy SC Games on this page was just a tester to see if the automatic spreadsheet would work.

Philip Aston

Philip Aston “Automatic spreadsheet” - Does that mean each result individually will update the spreadsheet automatically?

Andy SC

Andy SC @Philip - that is what will happen baring a disaster but the test carried out went well.

Dave Robjohns

Dave Robjohns *Should* be infallible barring apto name changes, although I’m investigating a fix for that. Updates instantly unless a few games are played close together (so might be a bit laggy at times here with the thousands of games)

Dan Spinks

Dan Spinks I love the bit just after midnight when the site goes crazy as all the games are populated, should be a good test for the spreadsheet

Andy SC @Dan - Who doesnt love that bit of Everything Counts? When I copy the web link for it into the spreadsheet, it will probably confuse it to begin with so much data.

Andres S.

Andres S. I'm just glad that the amount of players is staying at 69

Fi Thorne

Fi Thorne Sorry to ruin the number 69, but I'm going to withdraw from this as I usually only get a chance to play on Apterous first thing in the morning and I think it will be too difficult to pin everyone down. I can see someone is pending though, so you should get your 69 back! ;-) Good luck everyone!

Andy SC

Andy SC That is no problem, Fiona.

Tourney round: Everything Counts IX: Sign-up page

Round Robin >>

Notes from the organizer: Everything Counts is back for its 9th edition. If the 8th edition is anything to go by, this edition is going to extremely competitive.

The format will remain the same but here is the format for those that are not familiar. The tournament will start with a massive round robin tournament where everybody plays everybody in a 9-round game. Once the round robin stage is complete, so many players will advance to the knockout stages (this depends entirely on how many players sign-up. Players will somewhere between 6-8 weeks to play the games (Again, depends how many players sign-up).

The points scoring system for the knockout stage is as follows:
4 Points for a win
2 Points for a draw
1 Bonus Point for scoring 70+ points
1 Bonus Point for losing by less than 10 points .

In the knockout stage of the tournament all ties will be Best-of-3 9-rounders up to and including the semi final. The final will be a best-of-5 15-rounder match to decide the overall champion.

The Round Robin stage will start on the 25th September.

Looking forward to everybody signing-up and some excellent competition taking place. If you have any question please do ask.
