The Quibble With Christians

WHY, whenever on this site or in real life, when I ask a Christian to talk about ANYTHING philosophical, be it anything about God,HOW and IF you can know something, Free Will, How We Should Run A State... ANYTHING... They always, ALWAYS fall back on the dogma, can't leave it aside for two seconds! "God works in mysterious ways"= BIG cop out!

Team Canada (World Cup) organizing

Time to organize final team submissions to represent Canada. Details inside.

Plastic Hussar (1375 )
02 Jan 10 UTC

So 15 players signed up on the earlier thread to play in the World Cup representing Canada. Here are the IDs, the region, and the ghost rankings based:

13 BoG75, Toronto
34 Centurian, Ontario
68 Plastic Hussar, Ontario
72 DerekHarland, Toronto

124 Geofram, Toronto
413 mapleleaf, Toronto
614 SunZi, Alberta
676 guy~~,BC

1300 ILN, Toronto
1475 cujo8400, Ontario
5877 Kyrios, Ontario
8149 superkeiko, BC
10457 Skies, Toronto

Plastic Hussar (1375 )
02 Jan 10 UTC

So we have four players from the top 100 on the site (by current ghost rating), four more from the top 1000, and five others.

I was thinking that the first four players could be one team (the "A" team), and then we could send the second four in as the second Canadian team, or rearrange to have an Ontario team, and a Rest of Canada team from the second and third groups.

Thoughts?

Wish you had used all-time ratings.

I don't mind whichever way it goes. But I'd rather not be some kind of substitute, if I'm participating, it's got to be a game(s) from start to finish, and not some kind of sitter.

And when you say make an Ontario team, you realise that Toronto is the heart of Ontario yes? Meaning only 3 players are not from Ontario.

Plastic Hussar (1375 )

Geofram,

If you want to look up the all time GRs and post, we could see how it affects the team.
As for Toronto, I was pretty sure it was in Ontario :)
I was tracking it separately in case we wanted to do a Toronto team.
As for "ROC," I agree that we are a player short, so probably need someone from Ontario to change sides.

There are both London and England teams.

Centurian (3257 )
03 Jan 10 UTC

I don't know who is running this, but the leagues and GFDT and the like have near constant drop-outs. So we should have two teams at most, with potential alternates. If you want to seperate that into T dot and not T dot, thats fine, although I think "eh" team and "b" team would be a lot better.

Assuming this is an internet tournament I'd be glad to participate. I live in Canada, AB to be more precise.

Plastic Hussar (1375 )

damian: could you post your Ghost rating, please?

damian (675 )
03 Jan 10 UTC

Present or all time? I'll give both so you have them. Jan rating: 309 All time: 295

03 Jan 10 UTC

Toronto Team please. ROC hates us, as we all know.......

Plastic Hussar (1375 )
04 Jan 10 UTC

On the question of alternates, that shouldn't be an issue, since each player just plays one game (except the gunboat player).

How's this for the team breakdown:

Toronto team:
13 BoG75,
72 DerekHarland,
124 Geofram,
413 mapleleaf,

Canada team:
34 Centurian,
68 Plastic Hussar,
309 damian,
614 SunZi,

Yo, I can be on either Toronto team or Canada team if someone backs out....I was born in Toronto and went to university...I'm Torontonian at heart :)

damian (675 )
05 Jan 10 UTC

Sounds fine with me. Though I feel bad for the people who didn't get to make the cut...

Plastic Hussar (1375 )
06 Jan 10 UTC

So if no one objects, I think we should register these two teams. Since I have put myself on the Canada team, I can handle the admin side (which makes me the "captain" in name only). Can the other three players on the team please PM me with their email accounts, and preference for type of game? I will then finalize through email discussion.

For the Toronto team, someone needs to volunteer to look after the registration etc.

Sorry, but we already have more Canadians than can fit on two teams.

DJEcc24 (246 )
06 Jan 10 UTC

we are going to allow more than two teams for this years tourny. we want as many teams as possible. so the more the better!

ik but the midwest told me i gotta find three more people.....

Plastic Hussar (1375 )
06 Jan 10 UTC

Okay, so based on the note above, the other Canadians who expressed interest should also appoint a captain and register. They included:

guy~~,BC
ILN, Toronto
cujo8400, Ontario
Kyrios, Ontario
superkeiko, BC
Skies, Toronto

Just finished a pretty intense live game. Went all the way to the end of 1917, a personal record for me. So many ups and downs. He who was high fell and he who was low came to victory. Pretty fun. Check it out if you're interested.

Game stats question

I know that this is a minor point, but why are defeats listed first in your game stats? I think that it is more natural to go wins, draws, survivals, and then losses. Mind you, I am not asking anyone to go out on their own valuable time and change this. I am just wondering why its done this way.

Gunboat game?

Looking for players to play a fast Gunboat. I'd like to get 7 players together and make the game with a 10 min start time so I don't have to stay up all night. I'd like 5 min phases, WTA, Anom. I'm thinking 25point bet but I'm flexible about this. Please post interest here.
