    Bubs101, can you make a call on this when you get a chance...?

    Sorry man, I've been kind of snowed under with college. If he's been timed out for a few days then obviously you can kill the match and claim the win. If you're in the middle of the match though don't forget you can send him a PM via Boards. He might have just forgotten the competition itself.

    I'll sort the table and all that out when I get back from College today. Figs says he might have something sorted out for the table which sounds promising

    BroxiBearEire V The Scientist (pulp163)

    Well played mate enjoyed the game:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 610 ✭✭✭figs


    Hi Bubs,

    Yeah, the table I have is excel, so if you PM me your email address, I'll send it on and you can check it out.

    Figs.

    I'm available to start one more game if anyone's interested. Just challenge me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 907 ✭✭✭Rashers


    ZorbaTehZ(ZTZ) v The Scientist(pulp163)

    *The Scientist v RobBurke
    **Monkeyfudge v The Scientist



    *Game binned, Opponent has not moved in 30 days.

    You'd have been justified in claiming a win by time default.
    **Game Binned, MF confirmed by PM that he is no longer playing in the league.

    He'll need to be replaced in the league table by a sub because he's drawn to play in some games yet to be played.

    I'm just going to negate the results of all his games and give him an 0-29 record. It's a little late for subs to catch up now and there hasn't been a plethora of them applying.

    In other news, I finally got to my day off college and have PM'd Figs just there so once I see what he put together I'll copy and paste it up here so hopefully it should be up tonight or tommorow.

    On a side note, once the league is over, how do people feel about a ladder using the final positions of the league as rankings. It would be far more open to new players and means that if you wanted to take a break you could

    Sounds good Bubs101.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,191 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    Sounds like a good idea, Bubs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 907 ✭✭✭Rashers


    All sounds good to me. I'm not one of life's chessmasters(as my opponents can tell you) but I'm really enjoying playing in this league, and look forward to whatever comes next....

    ....... if I'm invited. :o

    I think chatbox said he was having connection problems. He was playing up to a few days ago.



    nummnutts

    I am gutted and stunned.....it was also going so well, then I got chinned out of the blue! A very sweet checkmate on your part. well done.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101


    Sorry for the ridiculous delay, i've just been really busy recently. I have updated half of the backlog of results but I have to study until drinking tonight and then I'm working tommorow so hopefully everything will be sorted by Sunday but.

    PS. Does anybody know how to put an excel file onto boards?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,969 ✭✭✭buck65

    You could try publishing the excel file as a HTML webpage and then uploading to a personal website, like this:

    standings

    :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 610 ✭✭✭figs


    There's a manage attachments option on the "Post Reply" screen. You should be able to upload excel file using that...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,191 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    The advantage of publishing as a HTML file is that anyone with a browser can read it. Not everyone has Excel (me, for instance). I created a cross table in Lotus 123 and then generated the standings from that.

    Good point... the excel file can be saved as a HTML file...

    File > Save As > Web Page creates "filename.htm" which is HTML doc that can be uploaded and viewed...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 610 ✭✭✭figs


    Off Topic... if you ever need to read an excel file, you can use OpenOffice (www.openoffice.org) which is a freeware version of MS Office.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,191 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    Round 20
    Pherekydes 1-0 nummnutts

    Good game, thanks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 63 ✭✭Suder


    Round 11

    Suder (Daiz666) bt ZTZ

    That was risky business but I snook it in the end!

    Good Game

    Thought I would have had a bigger lead than that. Some players racking up the wins that I didn't notice. Think I've played more games than that though.

    Round 21- nummnuts 0-1 DmanDmythDledge
    Round 18- DmanDmythDledge 1-0 falloffgirl
    Round 14- DmanDmythDledge 1-0 studiorat

    I enjoyed that game, well played and thank you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,235 ✭✭✭Dave147


    Skulled my game v BossArky to free up space for another game, I'll challenge you again when I free up another slot. Not taking it as a win.

    Darn, I was just about to make a move there. Sorry for the delay - I was in New Orleans for the weekend.

    Let me know when you are free for the rematch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,063 ✭✭✭BKtje


    Is that table accurate? As far as i can tell i've only played 8 (with a couple in the works) yet it says i've played 10. I'll have a proper look later though.

    Update:
    Round 19:
    B-K-DzR 1 - 0 nummnutts , thanks for the game.
    BossArky: Round 22 challenge incoming

    I've trawled through all 450 posts and found 10 results for you, including nummnutts' one. I did have one result duplicated. I'd be surprised if that's the only mistake I made.

    thanks for the game well won

    Thanks for the game.

    I've space for more games if anyone's available.
