Backgammon Online

I am participating in the tournament that starts tomorrow. As a non-subscriber, I am limited to 25 games. My question is this: if the number of games I have going on now plus the number of tournament games I am entered into is greater than 25, what happens? Should I try to finish enough games so that I have space for the tournament games or does it not matter?

hey ya,

you'll go over the 25 games for the period of the tourny...a special allowance from ZE...so don't try and finish enough games before hand if you don't want to! There are other posts about this issue but I can't be bothered going through them

here's some info but I couldn't see anything about the tourny...? If I missed it oops but if not maybe it could be added in to the FAQs?

this is a reply from one of my own posts from ZE...I'm adding this if any others had the same question!

Re: too many games...?

Good questions! In general, when a game is finished, you will be able to challenge that player because you did free up a game. However, with tournaments, players are allowed to temporarily exceed their maximum number of active games. So if they are over their limit, they won't be able to start any new games until they are back under their limit.

For the number of active backgammon games for a player, please refer to FAQ #21 -- we wrote a FAQ knowing that people would ask this question  .
