Just a quick question: will the results (promotions / demotions) of the end of the last session (ended Dec 30th 2013) be reflected when the next league season starts?

n.b. I must declare that I do have a vested interest - I worked really hard to get finally get into the Gold league next season

You and me both!!!

I am hoping to have this updates done this weekend.

Tom

I am very happy to report that the FLG League is now OPEN for matches!

I have not verified all the pages of the site, I just focused on the following:

Player Info: http://flg.fibs.com/player.php

View current matches with the typical link to POST/CONFIRM
http://flg.fibs.com/FLGleague.php?action=showleague&League=GoldA&Session=65

That includes BronzeA through MasterA and MasterB

Please let me know what pages need to be fixed next, I am not sure what other leagues are active.

One thing that might need a quick fix - there are just two players in Silver C (who probably should be in Silver B to make it the same size as Silver A).

Other than that, a cracking job getting things up and running so quickly!

Ok all fixed. There were 14 in SilverA, 12 in SilverB and 2 in SilverC... The SilverC players should have been in SilverB

Kudos to Tom!
This is even better than a great job Tom. I rest in awe.
I plea Tom be awarded the FIBS League Eternal Hero Award. Jol, whaddya think?

I see one more thing, but this is a matter of organisation: Masters 2012 is still open. Those guys should have finished already in 2013, right?

The next thing is the exhibition matches. Those were a great thing introduced by Franck. We shoud try to get them going again. If I could be of any help with these, let me know. The Giants ballot is on its way right now, we'll have a new list during February.

There are problems with the send email page and maybe confirm, I will be checking that tonight.

I am not sure what the deal with the masters is.

I also want to get the FIBS TY TEN pages updated and try to get it finished!

I think the Post and Confirm pages work properly now.

PLEASE PLAY A MATCH AND Report HERE if there are any problems!

The email link is good too

TY TEN is next

Thanks Tom for taking over and keep this league runningand to Franck for his work on this all this years.

I see season 65 just started. Did you take forfeit claims from season 64 into account?

Thank you,

I did not have that information.

Historically I have not found the forfeit claim to give me many points...
Often I have found people will post a loss (forfeit) when requested...

Thanks very much to Franck (Tomawaky) for running this league; and to Tom for its continuation; and again thanks to both for making the transition seem so easy (I know that it must take a lot of time) - I really enjoy the structure of FibsLeaGammon (FLG) – It compensates for many of the minuses within FIBS, and seriously increases my enjoyment playing BackGammon.

Tom · « **Reply #33 on:** January 07, 2014, 05:41:37 PM »

You are all very welcome!

It seems right now I have an issue with the match confirm.

working on it

Hi
the thing with masters is the best 12 of a year (this means 4 league seasons) play a knock out tourney (best of 3 matches goes to next round). All the details are here: http://fibsleagammon.free.fr/Masters.htm ("the twelve top-rated players on a unique League rating list will participate in a Masters tournament and the winner will become the best FIBS League player of the year ."). I see the ranking is gone, however, the 2012 bracket is still in place (http://fibsleagammon.free.fr/standing.php) with most of the quarter finals not played or not confirmed, the 2013 bracket has not begun.
The next thing is the exhibition matches, they're documented here: http://fibsleagammon.free.fr/Exhibition.htm. The best FIBS League player of the year plays a BG Giant.
Cheers!

There are five seasons in a year (currently).
There are many features that Franck hasn't kept up in the last year, notably the history.

vegasvic · « **Reply #37 on:** January 08, 2014, 02:38:45 PM »

Great Job Tom !!!!

Schigolch · « **Reply #38 on:** January 09, 2014, 10:04:20 PM »

dorbel is right, of course. It's 5 seasons a year.

Many thanks for taking this on board, Tom. It's much appreciated.

Although....there does seem to have been a strange promotion from Silver B to Gold A......Gabiblu? No offence.

But, I digress. Any progress on the 'claim forfeit' side of things? There is a player in my Division who, I believe, will not play me under any circumstances. I have requested to play through PM and also via e-mail, but I know it's not going to happen. I don't see why I should be denied at least a point, so would like to claim forfeit.

Contrary to your previous post, Tom, I have found that very few people are willing to voluntarily forfeit.
