@Luca: NO, not everybody is hating you. We just don't like your strategy for tournament. That's all, it's not a personal dislike against you(in my opinion). But perhaps we all are just envious, because we don't get those scores, you get. Wink

@Stephan: I also really hate this board. I mailed Yariv and told him that this board appeared in all seasons. Btw, he likes this board, but he said, it was only luck that it appeared again.

@all: Yariv also said that there exist only 25 boards for tournament. And only because I made 9 suggestions. So why don't you sit down and think of some boards for tournament. I did it and you could also do it so the following season will be more varied.

Well, i enjoy a lot this board because it is challenging  8), but its constant appearence is annoying. Tongue

I played 3 sessoins and managed:
61s in the first one (15 minutes);
47s in the 2nd (5 minutes);
48s in the 3rd (30 minutes and after Maruda's 43s).

Well...in fact, I was so surprised or shocked, that I forgot to take a screenshot Cry Sorry guys...
I only remember 6 3 on the left side Undecided It was nothing but luck. But I think, that this board is ONLY about luck...and patience...

2Stephan: it was the first board after Hexx's 47,94, so I missed one or two secs in the begining Wink

2Luca: we love You, but hate Your times Wink

@Luca: Maybe, Yariv could wide out a tournament session to two weeks during the summer. Then, if anyone isn't able to play during the whole two weeks, it's bad luck. Usually, most players will find an hour to play then.

Generally, I agree that holidays are a problem for weekly tournaments. But I could live as well with the status quo. For example, last week, I had 2x2 hours for playing...

Hi there.

just like to point out that for some of us who are maybe a little older, holidays are in fact a blessing. When you have a job etc... finding the time for any tournament becomes somewhat tricky.

When you take a break for a couple of weeks, it gives people like me hope that i can claw back a tiny fraction of the distance between us.

I believe that the system of a weekly tournament is the best one, but i may be alone in this thought.

Once again, i look forward to weekly battle with Yariv, who seems to be on a very similar level to me.

I'll be on a few vacations, too, I guess. So 2 weeks is fine by me. But first I have to absolve my first diploma-exam next week. That leaves few time to catch up to you guys...

2 weeks for one tournament: That's boring. I also think that weekly tournys are the best. Otherwise you have to wait sooooooooooooooo long. Ok, perhaps I only say this, because I have time enough currently, but I hope not. Tongue

Sorry Luca, but I have to agree with Foster, Nikolaj and Gero. Two weeks are too long. I think, that most of us play the best times in first two or three days and then only wait...

The new tournaments league, namely drop division, is a big problem to those who have less time to play during summer season. Tongue
So, i vote for 2 weeks tournament on T5, 6, 7 and 8.
Those who summer means more time to play, have now a big opportunity to improve level and rankings scores. Wink

P.S. Luca, surprisingly, or maybe not, you won last tournament!!!!!!!!!!!! Shocked
How many hours did you play? 4, 5, 6 or more?
Mail me the screenshot if you please.

Just a side note: It looks like nonosweeper (particularly the current divisions 1+2) is mostly a European game (13 Europeans, 3 US guys).

But generally speaking, it's quite unfair for guys in Australia or South Africa when we set up a summer break during European summer, but didn't set up a summer break during Australian summer.

So, I vote for weekly tournaments (seems as 2-week-tournaments won't find a majority) without summer break. Maybe, this will cause a very challenging season 4 Cheesy
