frank0 Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 The event is over. All the information of this tournament is here.https://www.dropbox.com/s/v9ykd7s5ysyg5qe/Event11.xlsx?dl=0 Before the deadline (8~10 days per round), play 4 sets of 16boards MP best hand challenge against the opponent. --------Even more Detail----------Tie breaker (within a group)0. Breaking the higher rank first if there are multiple ties1. Match result vs. each other2. Match result vs. rank#1 (among others), then Match result vs. rank#2,...etc.3. If everything is identical (unlikely), then I'll look at the IMP and follow step 1. 2.4. If still identical (lol), then I'll decide the play-off Fail to finish1. People who fail to finish any match are eliminated (unless with valid excuse), please don't do it.2. I'll assign score to/decide how to deal with the player playing against people who fail to finish. 8th place1. If you are from a group with someone fail to finish (therefore your group is effectively 10 or fewer people), then you have low priority in advancing.2. Otherwise it's base on matchpoint, highest two among four 8th place advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck11 Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 FWIW, I see a checkbox to pay ($0.25) for advanced robots when I go to set up a challenge. Holding off issuing challenges until further direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherdano Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 How about we start by challenging those directly below/above our name in the list (jump to first/last if your names is at the bottom/top)? That should help present someone from getting all 10 challenges at once, without having to draw up a detailed schedule. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gszes Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 just our of curiosity what the heck does "breaking the higher rank first if there are multiple ties" mean? :)))and where do we report results? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtK78 Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 I went ahead and made two challenges, checking the box for advanced bots at $0.25 each. If I am entitled to a refund, great. If not, 50 cents thrown away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holding off issuing challenges until further direction.I went ahead and made two challenges, checking the box for advanced bots at $0.25 each.If I am entitled to a refund, great. If not, 50 cents thrown away.Previously barmar can ask BBO to make exception for people in this event to use adv. bot for free. I'm not sure if it's still available. If not, I think the fair way is for everyone to use basic bot (and free).For the two matches by ArtK78 I'll still count but please don't make further challenge before further instruction. How about we start by challenging those directly below/above our name in the list (jump to first/last if your names is at the bottom/top)? That should help present someone from getting all 10 challenges at once, without having to draw up a detailed schedule.That sounds like a good idea. just our of curiosity what the heck does "breaking the higher rank first if there are multiple ties" mean? :)))and where do we report results?For example if the score in the group is like 60,60,58,55,51,51,50,45,41,40,39. Then we follow the procedure to decide which 60 should be first and which should be second. After that we decide which 51 should be 5th and which 51 should be 6th. You report it by replying to this thread with hand record and score. See the thread of earlier events for examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet when explained in detail it makes perfect sense.ties broken from the top down using the steps below (my lack of linguistic flexibility might explain why the robot dummy is rarely what I anticipate) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barmar Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 I've enabled free advanced challenges for all the participants in this event. And I'll issue refunds shortly to the people who paid before I did it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I've enabled advanced bots, please play each other again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyjef Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 I just issued a couple of challenges and still asked for .25 for advanced. Is that how it works or am I missing something?This shouldn't count, it was played with basic bots instead of advanced bots. Now that I've enabled advanced bots, please play each other again.

barmar Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 When you're creating the challenge, DO NOT check the "Advanced robots" checkbox. You automatically get upgraded to advanced robots because you're in this event, but checking that box still charges you $0.25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
