Boards.ie Online Tournament II Entry and Discussion

Kingp35

Ok lads it's time to get the second Boards.ie tournament off and running to see if anyone can defeat our first champion AndyP.

The only change to the rules of the tournament is that instead of playing the full ten legs in the group stages the game will be finished once someone wins 6 legs, exactly like the Premier League. The reason being that games took too long to play.

If people can get DartPro to work then they are free to use that to play their games, otherwise it will be ezchalk as usual.

The number of people in groups and how many groups will be depend on how many people enter the tournament.

I hope to have my broadband installed on Tuesday of next week so the Tournament will probably start during next week or weekend of April 11th.

So Anyone interested in playing please post in this thread.

For those of you who don't know what this is, have a look at these threads for information and then sign up!

Sorry about that, updated now.

Basically it is a tournament consisting of a group stage and then a knockout stage. Games are played over the internet using www.ezchalk.com that allows players who are not in the same room to play each other by throwing and entering their score. The website keeps track of the score etc. Obviously trust is a huge thing because you can easily cheat by entering the wrong score but we are an honest bunch and the first tournament was great fun.

Hope you sign up.

I shall return:D

I'll enter again. I'm away from 23rd to 27th of April so I may have to give a walkover or rearrange a fixture over those dates.

I need to get some practice in, for some reason my practice tailed off when the last tournament started and I haven't really got back into it at all. I've got a number 5 ranking to live up to

Thanks Kingp, will probably have to give this one a miss as just moved house and redecorating ongoing. Also still in the middle of delicate negotiations with the other half on where the dart board goes!

Will definitely get on board for the next one though.

Nobody like the idea of a straight knockout tournament??

Yep I do like the idea, it depends on how many players we get for this one. If we get enough players then it will be group stage again but after this one we can have a straight knockout one just to mix it up a bit.

I'm going to leave this thread open until Friday anyway to see how many we can get and I will probably send PM's to everyone that enetered last time and hasn't signed up for this one yet.

mussha

the bettin shop is a great idea i think it gives you an idea of how good your opponent is. just woundering what the standatd of darts in the ppl entered is.
im a 18 dart game mabe less on a good day
and on a bad day the sky the limit.
prob average about 21 dart games

Not playing the full ten anymore, once one person wins 6 then it's over so it won't take that long anymore. If we all could get dartpro to work then we would use that but you know yourself how awkward that is!

I've got dartpro installed and it was simple to set up, no problems at all, so hopefully I'll play my games on it and not ezchalk.
