Hi Kyle,
I see one (1) player from Tesla Coil has registered. Is that me? I do want to play, and I may add myself, just for this tourney, to another team who is also a little short on players. I also know, or think I know, that if two established FT teams combined, we would need to use a different name for our team, but just for this tourney.
I know you've probably mentioned this, but when does registration end? I know the dates for play, and the topics, and the hours, but I don't recall a deadline for registration.
I do know which of our teammates who have opted out, but I'm not sure yet who is actually "in," but I'm working on it!
And Gracie? Your avatar is so adorable! Is that the little Clover Fairy? (Sorry, Kyle, but I'm a girl, and girls are spontaneous where "adorable" is concerned!)

Elle, yes, you are the only player currently registered for Tesla Coil (unless there are others among the players who have not yet provided me a username).
Just to be clear, when forming a new team of players for the Invitational, you don't have to change anything on FT. All you have to do is let me know what team name you'll be playing under.
And as for a deadline, there is none officially. The sooner the better, because it gives me time to update my database and prepare for the scoring and so forth. Anyone who registers late may be assigned to Free Agents if it's not immediately obvious to which team they belong. |

Thanks, Kyle! I now feel fully informed, and I do think there will be more of us, but we will probably merge with another team just for this tournament.
I am all over this and will let you know absolutes as soon as I can.

| Will be interesting to see. I'm not seeing much overt activity in that regard, but perhaps it is buzzing behind the scenes. |

I tried to log in using my old account and afterwards the new account "Brooklyn" which I created for the tournament. I keep getting the same "invalid user/password" screen appear after I submit my info. Any ideas why I can't log into just this game?

Please could you tell me who you have registered for Scotland the Brains, and what is the cut off date as I chase up the laggards.
Many thanks

Hi shorthumbz! All private tournaments hosted by funtrivia require a separate registration. You may (and are encouraged to) register with the same username and password as you use on the main site.
Simply click "Create a Free Trivia Account" on the Wit's End page and complete the necessaries. If you were to play in multiple private tournmaents, you'd have to complete the same procedure for each one. But if you signed up with the same username and password for all, the system will autologin to each one when you arrive there. |

Dear Players,
The Team Heroes Open Invitational at Wit's End is just a couple days away now. I am off to celebrate my birthday with my wife this weekend, and will return just before the games get underway. So here are some important reminders and tips.
GAME REGISTRATION:
First of all, if you have checked in with me, you have registered your participation only. But you may still need to register your username in order to actually play.
If you've never played at Wit's End:
1) Make sure you're logged out of any private tournament you may have participated in before.
2) Go to http://www.funtrivia.com/private/main.cfm?tid=37636.
3) Check on "Create a Free Trivia Account" and register your user ID and password there. If you play in multiple private tournaments, it is highly recommended that you use the same ID and password for all of them so that the system automatically signs you in an out of private tournaments as you arrive.
I suggest you test things out before the games begin on Sunday.
GAME DISCUSSION:
If you haven't found our FT Virtual Blog yet, link from the Wit's End page or go to http://www.funtrivia.com/bb.cfm?action=details&qnid=27686&boardid=1111111. This is where we will be chatting during the action. I will also be posting regular updates and results to the blog.
TEAM MERGERS:
Teams that have not recruited enough players to field at least 5 are permitted to merge to form an Invitational team. However, you must also choose a new team name. You may use parts or version of your respective FT team names.
FREE AGENTS:
All players who are not FT members, who are otherwise unaffiliated with an FT team, or whose affiliation cannot be determined will be assigned to Free Agent teams. This includes players who did not provide a username at check in. Also, any players whose team's are under-represented and did not form a new team through a merger may be assigned to Free Agents.
That's all for now. Check our blog for additional updates and clarifications. I may be able to check in before Sunday, but otherwise will be ready to go when the games begin.
Thank you all for your participation. I hope you're looking forward to it as much as I am!
Cheers,
Kyle |
