You have signed up voluntarily for a tournament with 60 other players. To make this tournament run smoothly, consideration for your fellow players is necessary as are rules which have been in place before you joined.
If being considerate is a problem, no one is stopping you from leaving though I'd rather have you show your team mates - and the rest of us - that you are capable of maturity and respect for others.
Thank you, spasibo and blagodarya

I absolutely agree with you.
Having said that, issuing threats is neither mature nor respectful. Yet you and Bonne chance continue to do so.

Respect is earned, not demanded. You should both think about that!

Bravo, Xapko, very well said!

What respect you, Yinnakos, can be possibly talking about when that "mature and respectful" Bone Chance was making one move in 3 days in his game against me, huh? And he's a co-host of the NTs! As they were saying in our former home country the fish starts to rot from the head.
Peace out.

When you enter life, you respect your parents.
When you enter a classroom you respect the teacher.
When you enter someone's house, you respect the owner.

Nobody has to "earn" your respect. You OWE it to people because of their position.
Ever demand of your sargeant to earn your respect?

You joined a tournament which is hosted by Bonne Chance, Ricetta and myself. We set it up several years ago, organised it since and put in our time and energy. Can you respect that?

You have a choice of apologising for your trolling or being removed from this tournament.

. . .

It is a lot of work to keep track of the score of this tournament.
I had a lot of pleasure in the past year to do it.
This year with blokhin2, xapko87, annamarina, leoton, Esprit and all others's negative comments they made, I do not have to accept that.

The 15-July-2020, I wrote on the forum :

@ all others proposition

This forum is the place for the Nations Tournament 9.

If you want to be the host of a round rubin tournament open your forum for it.
We already had those tournament in the past. Go to see this web site :
https://unofficialzootourneys.wordpress.com/

Everything was going well until a member decide to change the way we were keeping the score. So what happen the host, the Web Master (KumaraKid) and me the scorer we all quit and the tournament stop.

yiannakos is the host and he does a very good job.
Ricetta is the Web Master and she does a very good job.
Me, Bonne chance, I am the scorer.

The Nations Tournament is the 9 years old and we should keep it like it is.

So if you do not like the way the Nations Tournament you just have not to play it.

About people you want to play faster go to play on a other site, this site is built this way and if do like the speed of the game, stop to complain and built your own site at the speed you want. I am feed up to ear you complaining about that.

And I finish with this : if you continue to try to change the way of this tournament and continue to complain about the speed of the game :

I will stop to be the scorer, so you will have to find somebody else to take care of the score.''

Congratulations, you win I retired to be the scorer of any Tournaments. I will try to finish the NT 9.

I am fighting a cancer since 2016 and I do not need all that shit in my life.

You don't respect your parents if they are bad parents and don't look after their kids. You don't respect your teacher if he/she is a bad teacher and is not teaching you anything. You don't respect a host that is threatening to kick you out of his house.

I can be and am respectful of what you've achieved with this tournament. However I can't respect someone who is constantly trying to intimidate and issue threats. That goes for both you and Bonne Chance - every time you both do that I respect you less and less.

As far as the tournament goes, i've always followed the rules and have always shown respect to my opponents,even wishing them good luck at the start of every game. So i don't believe I've ever broken any of the rules.

I don't really have anything else to say to you on that matter.

I'm really sorry to learn that.
Good luck with your fight with cancer. I sincerely hope you will win that fight soon! I'll be rooting for you.

You win, it is my last post for NT 9.
Find somebody else to take care of the score and finish NT 9.

Bonne chance

All I did was ask you to restrain from threatening me.

I don't see how your decision is a win for me or anybody else. You have a head on your shoulders so you are free to make your own decisions and do what you want. Ultimately it's your decision so don't pin it on me, please.

I cannot sleep again and try to find my negative comments... not success. But found this, posted on July 16 by Xapko, : " But I do think this league based format does have some merit. ...... I do think that the two can coexist in piece. So..... we can work out a schedule that won't interfere with NT ....."
So we all tried to stop meaningless discuss...on July yet and play NT games by rules.

Plasmon's posts have provoked again recently, but they have a different focus ... I wonder why this again applies to format, speed, loyalty, etc. on NT and why is this ultimate tone again? Noone likes this, noone needs this.

Sparks ignite from time to time ... and a fire is kindled if the sense of justice, independence, freedom to say (write) what you think is affected.
Let's finish this tournament in the best possible way.

Regards,
