Avatar of vickalan

This is the Final-game of the Third Bulldog Candidates Tournament. The Candidates Tournament is used to select who becomes eligible to challenge the bulldog World Champion. This Title is currently held by @Martin0. Martin has yet to fall to any challenge for the crown!😮😮😮

In this #3 Candidates Tournament, @HolographWars won against @JustARandomPatzer in game-1. @captaintugwash won against @evert823 in game-2. Therefore captaintugwash ("Tug") now faces HolographWars ("Holograph") in the Final. Tug was chosen to take White because he faced the stronger opponent in the round-1 game.

The winner of this game (Tug vs. Holograph) becomes eligible to challenge @Martin0 for the Word Champion crown.

Game rules for bulldog with witch can be found (here).

The opening board is here:

Tug plays White. Good luck to both players!😀

To be precise, the winner of this game will be the next challenger for the crown, but I'm currently challenged by @McGoohan. So it's not certain yet who the champion will be that the winner of this game will face.

Good luck to both players! I'll be watching.

I let you know this started :/

Not by pm you didn't, maybe you did in a thread and I didn't notice? I've been super busy the last few days, had a job interview (didn't get the job). I've been pretty distracted so I might have been told.

Very sorry, but this game might need to be put "on-hold" due to a problem I'm having with posting board images. The problem is being discussed at link below.

Since I can't post images, neither player is expected to make a move (until this problem is resolved). Sorry about it.

@vickalan, it bothers me a bit that you don't ask others able to post diagrams like me for help. Your not alone...

Thank you Martin0. I know you already do considerable moding, and I didn't want to add to your efforts. I really appreciate it.

Tug and Holograph are now able to play.happy.png

I hope the issues with posting images is resolved soon. Thank you in the meantime.happy.png

I'm far from overworked right now. happy.png

At one point I moderated around 12 bulldog games. Right now I am moderating 4 (2 which I am playing). If I take over this game and the Dobby-Patzer game, then it is 6.

 

I don't want to say what the limit is to how many game I can manage to moderate, but it really is no problem (as long as my program supports it). I'm not going to moderate chess on an infinite plane games though.
