lomdr - played today a test game with some other members from CarcC.

Please participants of this "Welcome Tournament" - before you play this league - come and play some test games to learn how the software works and come into the chatroom.

participants - you can post here if you like to play a game with your opponents.

Please write down in which group you are.

Group1 or Group2
------------------------
at the moment are in the chatroom:

Group1: lomdr
Group2: Ailurus

but they can't play together a welcome-tournament game, because they are in different groups.

Hello! Thanks to those of you who've been involved in setting up this new members tournament and for making us newbies feel welcome. It's a bit late now tonight, but I'll try and get online tomorrow from about 8pm (UK time), should anyone fancy a game. Happy to count it towards the tournament if you're also in group 2, but a friendly practice game is fine too. I've not played online before, so unfortunately I don't know how to host a game. However, I'm willing to try if someone in the chat room can guide me through my router settings tomorrow night. I'd like to give it a try using JCZ, but I don't mind playing via the Android app if necessary. Hopefully speak to some of you tomorrow. Cheers, Rich.

Thank you Decar for the detailed description! I really look forward to many exciting Carcassonne games in the next couple of weeks.

I could play a game tomorrow (or better today, since it is already after 12 o'clock here) evening. So lomdr, franks, Halfling, Curt or Merlin_89: Feel free to join a game with me that starts at 20:00 CET or later. Just tell me here or via PM.

Looks like we may have our first games this evening. That's great to see competitors organizing their games!

Take your time and enjoy your games

Sorry, that I couldn't write earlier. Had a lot to do today. Nevertheless, my offer is still valid. Starting from now, I could play a tournament game with one of my group mates.

Just come to the Chat room, I'm waiting there.

Should we open two topics for the "Welcome Tournament"
- Welcome Tournament - Group1
- Welcome Tournament - Group2

It would be easier for the participants to make appointments and to post the screenshots.

In our regular leagues we use separate topics.

I guess, that might be a good idea!

Big thanks to Mr Numbers for helping me to configure my router to host - really appreciate your help (merit given).
Cheers for the games tonight guys, I enjoyed playing online and am glad of the practice before playing a tournament game!
Talking of which, should anyone drop out then my eldest would really love to join. So if we need a reserve player, then just let me know.
Right then, I'm off to bed. Maybe catch up with some of you over the w/end.

Given a lot of the players are new to the forum, I think it would be easier for them to find and follow 1 forum post. For now at least let's record the games here.

Sorry I wasn't around to help; +1 Merit to Mr Numbers for helping - glad you had fun!

Hopefully, others will have time this weekend to start organizing games; if not we might have to make space for your Eldest

I will be available this weekend to play (and even now). However I have no experience in Jcloister so I'd prefer to join the game rather than setting one.

kettlefish · « **Reply #58 on:** July 18, 2015, 12:10:24 PM »

Merlin_89 and I are online in the chatroom.
Merlin_89 needs to play a test game to learn how the JCZ software works.

MrNumbers, danisthirty, Decar - or someone else - we need someone who can host a game with JCZ 3.1.1

Hi guys. I'm new to this but happy to host a game if you need me to? I'm not in the new members tournament as I didn't get registered in time. I'm Rich_The_Fish's eldest btw, and hopefully on the reserve list for the tournament! I'll head across to the chat room now.
