Just a thought Rose, sure that neither of you has accidentally added either as an enemy ? Can't think of any other reason ?

Emne: A glitch?

Have tried a few times to invite a friend Raviloi ruby to a game. it starts to put me thru the invite and I click what game type, then when i click send it pops up to the list of game types.. so i try to invite her from there and click on list of pals ( which she is in ) but her name isnt listed... help! There is no way even if i try to invite her to a game from the message box of an old game can i send one out to her

Emne: gratitude to Fencer !

As a token of gratitude, for all Fencer has done on this site to make it a great place to play & make new pals I thought now is a good time for us to start telling him on here on these boards.
So far a great job & can only get better in time.
Thanks Fencer.

Emne: Re: normal behaviour

Elma, Czechs are not raised to offend people.In the case of this man...I think he doesn't want to neither ignore you nor decline you...he wants to play with you as soon as he finish one of his games and then he can accept your invitation. This is what I think is going on. People do that sometimes to me...they kind of put me into waiting line...well, that's ok with me...if I do not want to wait...I just cancel invitation. Do not put him into your enemies, please...he is a good man...better...write him letter that it upsets you.I think he is not aware of you being offended right now.

Any estimate on how long it takes for acknowledgement of a paid subscription?

20. Januar 2003, 11:32:24

The current status is that white player has bearing off to the right and black to the left. More options will be added soon.

Emne: I thought backgammon board was fixed

sometimes a backgammon board is the correct position, the bearing off is to the right === but other boards are bearing off to the left, which is so confusing. will someone please explain if this is going to be something we have to get used to or if I missed the post, I am sorry, I would hope that all variants of backgammon would have the same set up.

Emne: Re: normal behaviour

I also don't understand. If he don't answer in a few days i resign that other game. I don't wanna play such players and add him to my enemies

19. Januar 2003, 00:58:13

Ian

Emne: Re: normal behaviour

Sorry i meant the Add to friends & Add to enemies options when loading your profile.:) - Looks like he speaks English, so that can't be why.! - I can't see him deliberatly ignoring u.:)

19. Januar 2003, 00:51:07

lullobear

Emne: Re: normal behaviour

Ian, the is no "ignore button" just accept or decline.
Eddie, the player is a Brain Rook but also if he has not enough room for an other game he can decline the invitation!

Emne: Re: normal behaviour

also if they are not a member they might not have room for another game....

19. Januar 2003, 00:45:58

Ian

Emne: Re: normal behaviour

Maybe a daft question but are u sure he understands English.? - Also If he accidentally clicked Ignore instead of add to Friends, would he still see your invite.???

Emne: normal behaviour

I am playing Maharajah chess against one of the prominent players ont this site and invited him to play an other game with changed colours.
"Normal behaviour" according to the way i am brought up is accept or decline the invitation instead of ignore it. This player has played at least 10 moves in the other game, so he must have seen the invitation. Is this the way Czech people are raised?????????

18. Januar 2003, 19:16:07

harley

Goonerg, I just tried it, all the games are included, and the only thing you can do is delete the whole tournament once its created. If you do one watch the BKR, its set quite high, it might need to be made lower so people can sign up!!
Its the same set-up as the tourney thats running now, it will just have your name at the top!

18. Januar 2003, 18:42:55

Goonerg

Emne: FAO Fencer - Define Tournament

Can You define a torney to be of just one game type? or will all games be included? And also, If if set one up and want to change it Can I do that before anyone signs up. Sorry to bother you, But I don't want to start something wrongly!

Emne: Re: Backgammon Board Orientation

If you play on a real board, one player bears off to his bottom right and the other to his bottom left since one player goes clockwise and the other anti-clockwise. This is fairly easy to get used to. The problem here is bearing off from the top of the board which you never do normally.

Emne: SAD NEWS

Rob310's Dad and stepmom were killed in a auto accident in fla. yesterday, and he left all his gamesites, and doesn't know if and when he will be back. I wish him and his famly my deepest sympathy.
his games will all time out. i know he's in the spider tourn., i thought Fencer might need to know this.

15. Januar 2003, 02:58:58

I agree and I also have a problem seeing the dice spots, the color or size is a problem to me

15. Januar 2003, 01:38:13

Rose

Emne: Re: Backgammon Board Orientation

I have to agreee i am very confused playing gammon here.. one turn i veer off to the top left another bottom right.. i think.. anywho if we could have a setting so that we always veer off to the bottom right i think it would be easier to play.. other players have said the same thing to me.. I have no idea if this would be hard to program in to the game or not.. if so then Im sorry for asking for it :-)

Emne: Backgammon Board Orientation

Now that the obvious Back/Nackgammon bugs have been sorted out, can we do something about this. As far as I can make out the boards for backgammon and all the variations are upside down for both players. ie The 2 backmen (4 for Nack) start on your own side of the table instead of your opponents side as they should. The boards shown to each player just need to be swapped over so that White would see what Black sees now and vice versa. This would make life a lot easier. Thanks.

I think this site has come through it's first major test. With the large number of extra games that the tourney's have generated, I have not noticed a sign of the site slowing down! I hope as the number of people playing at this site increases, Which it certainly will, the site reamains as fast.

Well done again Fencer!
