World Masters 2000 Teams!

LS1: I know a little bit about UBB, and it's possible to set a forum to only allow specific posters in WITHOUT even utilizing a password. Though it might be a good idea for us alternates though

[Mao]

Hey hey hey!

We're missing the real point of this thread; which is to make me mod of this forum

On a side note: Turkey! woohoo!

[Napoleon Bonaparte]

Damn...guess I am an alternate...

Yeah, there should be no need for a password. Just force you to submit your own user name and password, it checks a list to see if it's okay for you to enter, and you're in.

[Gerwald]

So.....Boshko is signing everyone up? What about that FEE I heard about?

[Berzerker]

See! Now you went and made Napolean cry - no alternates, we get enough for 3 teams and if we need a replacement during the tourney we can recruit someone from apolyton.

Snowfire,

I have a couple of suggestions. First of all I agree with you on the "brag board." We should make it a team policy to AVOID this activity all together. I know for a fact that teams tend to gang up on other teams if the are doing very well, very poorly, or shooting their mouths off about anything. Additionally, I think if we are going to discuss games amongst ourselves it should by vial E-mail, ICQ, chat rooms, or some vehicle other that the message threads. Posting results is one thing, but advice and strategy should be removed from such public sites where prying eyes can see them.

[Sahib]

Ruffhaus is absolutely right. We must not post our strategy here in a public forum. It may sound paranoid. But I know of at least three teams last time wich collected information on every (!!) player in the M99 and their respective communities. These guys had even collected individual statistics for everyone, meaning they sought and found the results of the games every player was in the last couple of years (!!) They will definately check out the Apolyton site for info.

[SnowFire]

RUFFHAUS: Yeah, good point. Though I'm afraid I already made the request to MarkG-
http://apolyton.net/forums/Forum20/HTML/000955.html

If he rejects it, then e-mail seems probably the best alternative, though it won't have quite the continuity of a thread.

Hopefully, other teams won't be low enough to try and hack into a private thread/forum.

Nobody can keep track of 14 or even 7 games and give valuable advice. Why not do it differently: if every player keeps track of the moves of one teammate plus the moves of his counterpart in the other team? Like, for example, Boshko in Team 2 looks over my moves plus checks the moves of his rusian couterpart in Team 1. This way its not just that someone CAN look at someone else´s moves, but instead someone MUST look at the moves. This should also help avoid NMRs, as - for example - Boshko would ask for my moves if he didn´t get them in time.

Defiant:
of course lets look at each others moves. We should also check some of the Winners of M99 who played Germany. I would appreciate your advice very much and I am totally willing to give you mine

[Coug 3]

How ironic that people talk about having a private forum for the Apolyton teams....

But if you want it, I can provide it...

[Boshko]

what happened was I posted, went off and did something, came back and saw an errors screen, hit back, and then dped
