8minute boards are horribly slow,,, 6minute x 3 per round works well

#687 Pairs. BOOM BOOM BOOM - 2008 ends

Can we agree on liberal system regulations so we can get more BBF'ers interested?
("Anything goes" is probably fine with everyone and is also very easy to police by the TD... Forcing passers or HUMers or BSCers are encouraged to start a thread now so we can discuss a defense.)

Hi,

4 days ago posted th tournament. Accepted "all sys on". Registration and partnership table still empty. Moreover your offer yet not responded.

Possible reasons :

The community here might not find time suitable
They might like argumentative positions rather than playing with other forum members
They might dislike pairs, they like individuals
They might like to say we play artificial or highly unusual methods but we do not need to post it's defense
They might only like to say we dislike natural methods and we dislike to play against them
They might even think about no need to post anymore bcos we showed our disinterest in some ways
They might not try to find partners to play there
My "consensus" offer for that specific tournament might ignored

All fine, anyway why I do not see them there in action ?

Okay, no big deal. I can cancel it when the time comes

[mtvesuvius]

Hamdi, I tried signing up, but it said the it was restricted to a private club/friends... Can you please add "mtvesuvius" and "jakob_r"...

Thanks

AJK

[H_KARLUK]

You welcome my friend. The first day i listed your partnership names. Now I added you and your partner to friends list. I am still seeking what's wrong in my settings.

In case problem exists please try to contact with me on BBO in tournament day. I normally be there before 3-4 hrs of our tournament.

Please accept my apology for the inconvenience.

Thanks for your kind remind. Best of luck please
Hamdi

No "boom boom" means to f**k
You don't use this in polite company anywhere in Asia. boom boom boom means to have a double, or a sandwich if you like. (Sex with 2 ladies).
 

And so one boom is?

Masturbation. Btw, if a lady is doing it with two gents, would it be half a boom?

Btw my original comment was meant as tongue in cheek, but I suspect that due to a language problem it was taken literally.

And so one boom is?

One boom = A fart?
An old one, perhaps?

I still cannot sign up . It says "Sorry, this is a private tournement, it is not open to the public, please contact tourney host to register". I'm sorry for the trouble Hamdi, but I'd like to play .

[vuroth]

I can't either, though I admit, due to company, I'm only 50/50 to be able to make it tomorrow.

[jillybean]

I cant sign up but I cant play tomorrow anyway - another time and I would love to play.

[CSGibson]

I was able to sign up with my partner, Hamdi, so something is working.

It's not a trouble mtvesuvius. It's your politeness. I am happy to serve. Really confused. Here are my settings :
Include friends of host
Include players from a file on your PC [C:\documents and settings\admin\desktop\boomboom.txt]
I added those players to friend list. I tried to ensure they can sign up. I picked these screen names whoever replied my earlier posts and was on forum member list and I got some emails.

If I can find my humble friend Georgi of BG yellow he can help me. I trust him. Because he also believes like me that good favors come back with good things. For now I see chris and dimitar registered. ochinko and p_marlowe registered partnership desk.

I hope this list also helps to other hosts who may decide similar tournaments for BBF in future.

Regards
Hamdi

Destiny is not in a fickle mood today. This morning I saw my fiancee in webcam. Heard her voice. Wireless worked perfect. USA>TURKEY . 7 hours difference time zones. I respect technology. I believe all will go well. It won't be a fiasco. I know I did my best.

And tournament settings working. Small things makes me happy

All the best.

Hamdi

Thanks Hamdi ... Now I just have to wait for my partner to get online

♥Anytime. I m glad you will play with your partner.♥

Maybe you can forgive this curious player. Dare i ask pls? You meant "mount vesivius" in Italy I think. Etna disaster in history books we educated in middle school.

I hope you do not misunderstand my words. I respect the nick you pick.

Hamdi

I'm not sure how I came up with my nickname... I was going to change it, but I decided that I really liked it... (I also created mtetna, which I use somewhat less frequently, but I still use ) See you later today (online ofc)...
