Apterous Winter Closed Round 1

Andrew Feist · Post by **Andrew Feist** » Sun Nov 28, 2010 12:17 am

Basically, start here: http://sites.google.com/site/apterouswi ... tournament then click on things on the left side -- the names of the tournaments themselves contain details about how the tournaments work, and week 1 matches has, well, the week 1 matches.

Please post your results here, ideally with links to the games themselves.

(EDIT: Oh right: to set up your games, you should either PM your opponent here or send him/her an Aptomail. I'll get all the Speed games up soon, so you can get scheduling ahead if needed.)

That's a new facility to me - Aptomail. Missed the announcement of that one. Looks useful.

Enjoyable games - shame the second one wasn't as close as the first.

Eoin Monaghan - 97 - 102 - Marcus Hares
Eoin Monaghan - 101 - 77 - Marcus Hares
Eoin Monaghan - 105 - 95 - Marcus Hares

Three very close games here, the first was well deserved by Marcus and the second was just as even, which I managed to scrape through. The third was the closest and best of the three with me just winning on the crucial conundrum.

Always a pleasure to play Marcus, thanks for the games!

I didn't deserve a 2-0 win here, it should have gone 1-1 really and into a decider but as Scott said "shit happens".

DOD versus some dude

I played Ollie Garner too but it seems we had a week off so hopefully Feisty can confirm if this in fact a real match. If we played a real match out of order I don't mind carrying the loss, was outplayed so fair's fair.

I read it as Oliver Garner vs David O'Donnell, James Robinson off instead of Oliver Garner, David O'Donnell, James Robinson off. My bad

Howard Somerset · Post by **Howard Somerset** » Mon Nov 29, 2010 5:13 pm

I've tried aptomailing both of my first week's opponents. First time I've tried using aptomail. How do we see replies? I know that one of my opponents has been logged on to apterous a few times since I aptomailed him. Indeed, he was logged in when I was playing earlier today, but had logged out before I'd finished the game I was involoved in.

I missed a game during the summer tournament due to my forum PM never being read, and hope something similar will not happen again.

It's just a web-based front to an e-mail address, Howard - so whatever you send just gets sent to the e-mail address they have registered on apterous, whilst remaining secure as you don't get to see the e-mail address. So them receiving it depends on them checking their e-mail, and has nothing to do with the apterous website itself. The e-mail they receive is addressed as from your registered e-mail address so that they can reply via regular e-mail.

A close game where the lead changed hands and we each got a pencil (CLASH for Ben; OREAD for me). Won on crucial.

Ben pulled ahead with DURIANS, but I weaselled my way back in and WAGGLED to win on a crucial again.
