RPS Ladder Tournament!

[srn347]

I challenged wayne and won by forfeit(which makes it 3-3, mutual game point). I don't want to double forfeit win, so I'll wait a little while to challenge him again, but if my online chess keeps lagging, I may change my mind...

Welcome, seekers

Welcome back Martin. I hope you had a happy & fruitful holiday.

hey Franklint. I am back home again. Did you receive / respond to game number 142605 yet?
Still no further emails from rpsgame at my end yet.

Max

Hey Max,

Good to see you again. I hope your time away proved useful and fun.

I haven't got any e-mails from rpsgame since you went away, so let's just manually restart the game.

As far as I can remember, I thought I threw Scissors to trick the Paper out of you. You're the one who got the e-mail, so I guess you'd know. I'm not sure what I was thinking if I threw something different . I threw Scissors, was it? I guess that means we're tied.

rpsgame says I have no unfinished games, so why don't you just send me over a throw when you can?

Cheers,
Franklint

Hi Franklint,

yes had a great fun time. joined family holiday in France for a spot of sunshine therapy.

Tied it is. first 142507 was your P v my P
response 142605 would have been my S v your S

Will try resending response with new throw choice & see if RPSGame is working again.

Cheers
Max

Franklint,
i sent a throw yesterday but have no email confirmation yet.

have you recieved anything from rpsgame?

Max

[Franklint]

Nope, I've got nothing on this end.

I'll PM you my e-mail address. There might be a problem with the nicknames.

I'm sure we'll finish the game eventually .

Cheers,
Franklint

[Maxamillion]

hi franklint,

I tried to throw it again.

It came up with "you alread got game 152963 in progress with this player"

Have messaged rpsgamemaster to check it out.

I suspect everyone is waiting for master roshambolah to finish his summer vacation eh!

Max

[Franklint]

Well, Max and I had our game. It was a great match, with some excellent play on Max's part!

It took me far too long to pick up on his Scissors-exclusive, and by then it was too late, with a perfectly-timed change of strategy. Here's a throw record:

Tie
Tie
Franklint P vs P Max
Franklint S vs R Max
Franklint P vs R Max
Franklint R vs P Max
Franklint S vs R Max
Franklint S vs P Max
Franklint P vs S Max

The first two throws got lost in the ether (unless Max has them?), but I know that they were stalemates. Check out Max's daring and killer strategy. You are gaining skill at an alarming rate, Max. Very well done.

Looks like I'm dropping down the ladder every minute. Ah well. I think my next plan of action will be to challenge someone who isn't likely to respond, and get a forfeit win after a week.

Cheers,
Franklint

Thanks Franklint,
It was a great game, it flowed smoothly. I thought you were reading my game & expected you to grab last two hands. I was pleasantly suprised to get the last one.

I found the no response games frustrating. then waited to long for another game.

Last one was against Scisor Sista.

I have not got a clue where the ladder positions are now though.

Thanks again for responding to my plea for a game.

Martin when is the next update scheduled?

Cheers Max.

Ps I just had a game with Sioen. i have not seen his name on the BB but he seemed to have a good rpsgame record.

[martinburley]

Ladder update on Saturday for sure.

[Maxamillion]

cheers martin,

I guess you are all still busy with the real life tournies & world championships.

Max

[Maxamillion]

Hi Martin,
 its saturday today I think.

I was wondering if the ladder is broken?

or perhaps every one is still on holiday as this is our main holiday period?

Just in case its still running. I think i took Franklints place so that should mean i can challenge you again Martin.
 so if you are still arround consider this a challenge.

Max

[Neilio]

Yo.

I'm new here, but thought this sounded kinda fun. The name's Neil. So I guess I start at the bottom or whatever. Lemme know if it's okay to join up and I'll start playin'...

[Franklint]

Hi Neil (or Neilio, which would you prefer?),

Welcome to the Board. We're currently having a bit of a down period, but the activity should pick up rapidly soon. I hope you have a good time here.

The first thing you'll need to do to join the tournament is to get an account on rpsgame.com, and PM your username to martinburley, who will probably then send out a list of everyone's names to allow for easy challenging.

I'm not in charge of this tournament, so I won't give you the go-ahead until martinburley lets you in. I'm pretty sure there won't be a problem however.

Throw well!

Cheers,
Franklint

[Maxamillion]

welcome to the BB Ladder Neil.

As Franklint said its been quiet lately posibly because of players being exhausted from the physical tournament scene.

Its posibly also why Martin has not responded to my challenge must check the records.

looking forward to an on line game of RPS with you neil.

Max
