sceptic Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Hi Fred, Uday Is it possible (for you) to allow us to create a Tourney with a director that is not linked to a group of tables and having all aceess to the Tourney facilities. Perhaps a button or option to call the director, not one of the people controlling disconnects and various other tasks involved in running Tourneys. I am only asking this as, if someone wants to make decisions, rulings etc etc, they are free to do so in an unpressuirsed environment and any SUB Directors can controll the disconnects etc etc. possibly even allow more than one director (then this facility can be used to train directors) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Dodgy Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I think the request is for the ability to designate 'restricted' directors - who are able to address issues such as substituting stuck or diconnected players, but unable to take actions such as score adjustments (this being handled solely by 'power directors(s)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwingo Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 The way I understand sceptic, is that when there are more than 1 director listed, then the work load is shared among them. Director calls are split within the group of directors. Sceptic wants one of the directors to be there not going to tables and booting players, but attending to the important stuff which requires knowledge of Laws, etc. Try this loophole. I am not certain of this , but you can test it out. The host who creates the tourney does not put his name in the Director box. List other names who will help you will the TD calls. Whenever the TD is not able to handle complicated directing issues, he calls the host to the table for help. The host takes over from there on and relieves the Director , so that he can go on with this mundane task of finding subs, etc. Godwin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceptic Posted October 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 sorry if I did not explain myself uday (usual problem for me) what I am suggesting is that when a few TD's run a tourney, one of them is a bridge TD and the others are controlling disconnects etc Two levels of TD i.e. proper TD's for rulings and SUB TD's for connection issues etc now we could have two call buttons on the table one for director calls and the other button for disconnects or red dots An example would be SHEPs teaching tourneys (I am only using SHEP as an example) "SHEP" deals with questions the BIL members have and "GEOFSPA" deals with connection problems and announcements etc people playing will private message "SHEP" for help I was looking at larger tourneys where the same priciple could be in play SHEP = qualified TD and GEOFSPA = Sub director / helper (what ever you want to call him) This would allow the TD (SHEP in this example) to only deal with queries and whatever and means they would not be distracted by calls for connection problems I think this would be advantageous in very large tourneys i.e. over 100 tables Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
