Since TT06 has been paused, I finally had some time to look into some moderating matters.
Seven games have been (incomplete)d. For a discussion on this, you might want to check this thread.
Here's the list of (incomplete)d games:
Windle Poons Vs Mystery Cat;
Magrat vs Pigeon (1);
Ponder vs. Magic-Igel (1. single);
Ponder vs Pigeon (single unlimited);
Erik vs Magrat;
Dearmer vs. Magic-Igel;
Oograh Boike vs erik.

Aine vs. Magic-Igel looks Finished, but I need word from Aine to be sure. I've PM'ed Aine about it.

Happy Thudding!

alas it is true! they have left me! what have i done to deserve this? do i smell? is it my hair?

Magrat vs Pigeon (1);

At some point I think Pigeon changed his/her name to Pidgeon, and there was confusion. Confusion still reigns, but I haven't heard from either of them.

Erik vs Magrat;

Erik pops in and out on about three-month headings. Havent heard from him either.

Ahem....

And no, it's quite alright, you do not need to post apologies. I get it, you didn't mean to, you misread, you didn't see it. Apologies accepted.

Happy Thudding!

sorry, sorry...please forgive me! delete this and my original one if you wish! please! anything!

Hi Y'all,

First time ever since the Big Forum Jump, and I can tell you it took me some getting used to!
A couple of things I think you should know:
--(1): even for moderators, or administrators as they seem to be called in this drupal thing, it is not possible anymore to find out exactly what the date was for last post in any thread (there is actually, but I'm not going into that kind of trouble; too much work, trust me, it is), so any (incomplete)d games have the month and year they have been incompleted, instead of the month and year of last post.;
--(2): the editing text in incompleted games needed to be changed to:

because first: bold and italic type don't work anymore, hence the "--->" to make the edit instantly recognizable; and second: original posters can't edit their posts anymore, they will need help from administrators in doing that. Hmmm, maybe I should have changed the "moderator" to "administrator" as well... Ah well, damage done, will change that in future edits.;
--(3): since there's no exact date feature anymore (see (1)), I will use the weeks since last post to go by. Any unused and not finished topic dated over eight weeks, give or take (give mostly), will be incompleted from now on.;
--(4): besides a couple of other very cool things, this drupal forum has a nice feature the other one hadn't: nodes. I'm not in the mood (nor the place) to tell you the how and the what, but I'm going to use node numbers as well as topic names from now on, to help you find incompleted games. Yeah right, as if anyone is interested in finding incompleted games....

Right, having said that, I'm sorry to add to the list:
node/topic
290 - Godbatman vs Bugs
280 - Godbatman vs Palm
334 - tomo_cjt vs Mr Scrub
258 - Therul vs Ponder
223 - Windle Poons Vs Mystery Cat

Happy Thudding!

Three new games that have been (incomplete)d:

node - topic

416 - Ponder Vs Stone Giant
418 - Karotte v Stone Giant
442 - thunderchild83 vs Fitz85

Happy Thudding!

284: Dwarves are Small vs Palm

Happy Thudding!

Three incompleted games:

435: angua vs peanut
436: Magrat vs Peanut
451: Vlad042 vs thunderchild83

At the request of SANEAlex 316: watt v sane alex kvt will remain open for another two weeks.
221: Erik vs Magrat (resumed) looks finished, but it hasn't been scored. I'll find out.

Happy Thudding!

221: Erik vs Magrat (resumed) has been renamed to Erik vs Magrat (incomplete nov 06).

Hi Y'all,

Well, now it seems that there ARE dates for last post, so I will go back to the previous format of naming the month of last post, instead of month of (incomplete)d. I did not take the trouble of changing the few games that used to have month of (incomplete)d, I'm sure the few posts before this one will help with finding what and where they are.
Also: I have locked this thread so only admins can post in here.

This times list of (incomplete)d games:

node - topic name

397 - Nelly the Marrow vs thunderchild83
597 - Anyone fancy a game?
429 - Tompko vs Dearmer *
337 - Vanceone v. SANEAlex KVT
430 - Tompko vs Vlad042 *
466 - Windle Poons Vs Dearmer
572 - Oneiron V Windle Poons (Double, 30)
576 - Kuda Vs. Windle Poons
269 - Windle Poons Vs Ponder
581 - Mazur - Ponder (single unlimited)

* I must have read somewhere that Tompko has trouble with his connection, so I'm not sure about any of his games. But I can edit the games back to active once he comes back, so there should be no problem.

Happy Thudding!

Hi Y'all,

Ouch!!! Half a year and three days since last post, this is going to look bad on my rep sheet. However, I do have a good excuse, and you can read about it elsewhere.
I've worked my way up with (incomplete)-ing and (Finishing)-ing to eight weeks ago, that's what we agreed upon was it? Here is the list of games I found (incompletes only):

node - topic
657 - 30418478 vs Elerias
652 - 30418478 vs Magrat
644 - Seb V Oneiron
679 - Anybody up for a game?
674 - Elerias vs Stellascura
592 - Palm vs Sweeper
735 - First time Thudder looking for a game!
377 - TotallySlag vs. nelly the marrow
785 - Im New & Want to play
675 - Palm vs Dearmer
605 - Dearmer vs Magrat (Single,U)
695 - Jedd vs. Bugs
677 - Palm vs DerTom
676 - Palm vs Mr C.M Evily
850 - Ook vs Oneiron
933 - Wizzard vs. +++post name here+++
855 - FlorisXIV vs Peanut Doubles

950 - HelpICantFly vs FlorisXIV. doubles, U
962 - pinky vs sgt L. (trad,single,unlimited)
1063 - [ T ] Sgt L vs Pinky (KV,S,U)

If I made any mistakes please let me know and I will correct it. Some games have been bumped up the list because I thought they will be resumed shortly.

Happy Thudding!

sgt L always said, once he is back he will continue his games. i don't know if all of them, but i hope the two we started.

I know, I know.... It took even longer this time. It's just that it's not on my list of favourite things to do because 1: it's games, you always hope they get resumed later on (see node 1220); and 2: it's a boring and tedious job. But someone has to do it, so here we go:

(some of the games below were (incomplete)d in a previous session, nov 7 2007, but it seems I forgot to mention that in here)

That's it, back to ten weeks ago since last post.
A note from me: there are a couple of games in this second list that have feb 07 as incomplete date. It's not been that long since I've checked, I can assure you. For some strange reason some or most of these threads --the feb 07 ones-- have been going on until august 07, but talk only. The last moves in all of them was in feb 07. Weird coincidence.

Happy Thudding!

And to add to that (see above), I stumbled upon a couple of multiplayer games. Since there's no single player on either side in those, there isn't any single person to admit defeat, or claim victory. I (incomplete)d them anyway. If anyone thinks there's still life in those games, resurrect them, or, if not, start a new one. I liked the idea, so please do. It would be a waste of the pages I created on my site if we didn't.
Also, in node 1681 I found a strategy discussion. I did not (incomplete) but instead added a new (Thud strategy discussion).

Happy Thudding!

Just a couple of (incomplete)s this time, four months after the last session. Things have been awfully quiet down here!
But then again, games are now either (Finished) or (incomplete), or only up to ten days old, last post. Are we back from extended holidays, everyone?

node<>title
1563 Dibbler vs. Bill Door (single, trad, U)
977 Palm vs FlorisIV (KVT, Double, new rule)
1720 SANEAlex v Pinky (Trad,Doubles,U)
1808 where can i buy thud in a brick and mortor store in the UK?

That last one had a (no game) added to the title. It's a discussion that should have been moved to Thudding Drum long ago. But it's been in here for so long now, I decided to let it be to avoid confusion.

Happy Thudding!
