Hello,

this night (April 18) a battle of sexes

will take place on

http://www.inetplay.de

in “EinStein wurfelt nicht”.

Seven men and seven ladies

will go in combat (8 games

for each cross-pairing). The

team with the better total scores

wins.

Start is around 19:30 German time.

Spectators are welcome.

Ingo Althofer.

PS: In contrast to the situation on LG

the EinStein family on inetplay has

more than 50 % women and girls. And

there is a good chance that the ladies

might win the battle this night.

Yes, unfortunately, there are very few men here at golem.

The battle is over - and to my surprise

the men achieved a convincing team win

by 234-192. However, the best single

score was achieved by a member of the

ladies' team, “Madam”.

Ingo Althofer.

Somewhere I missed something:

7x7=49

49x8=392

239+192=431

392=/=431

:-)

> Somewhere I missed something:

Right, when a match ended 4-4,

each team got 4 points.

However when a match had a winner,

this winner got 1 bonus point.

For instance: 5-3 resulted in 6-3.

This rule was to strengthen the team character:

for instance, to make two wins of 5-3 each more

valuable than one 6-2 win.

Ingo.
