Subject: Re: Server News 4 March
rod03801: Thank you for your prompt reply! My question was not about the tournament creator, but rarher about the site promoting racist policies through Server News! Does the site owner(s) have any principles on the promotion of racist policies within the site?

Subject: Re: Server News 4 March
Im a goodun: Yes, a tournament creator can set up whatever parameters they want for their tournament. So, it would be perfectly acceptable to do that. Why not become a paid member and do just that? :-)

Subject: Server News 4 March
Is it not a bit racist to advertise a prize, available to players from one country only?
Would it also be acceptable to site policy to promote a prize available to everyone EXCEPT Czechs??

Subject: Re:
Niki: Ohhhh thanks! That is hardly $13,000 dollars now is it! Actually it is less than $45 dollars donation per person. I wonder who has given the most money to Brainking for memberships? I am sure there must be many more people who deserve "endless gratitude" if all it takes is a $45 dollar donation?

Dont get me wrong.... it is far more than I will likely ever give, but what about all the other people who have given their hard earned money in donation to Brainking and never recieved any recognition in the server news for 'endless gratitude'? I may be wrong (again) but it seems like there are probably many people who deserve such an honor wo have pledged far more money to Brainking?

for info.. 13000CZK is approx $575 or £300

4. March 2005, 14:28:38
Czuch 
Now I see it says $13,000 not $15,000 and it is "membership value" whatever that means... It still sounds like you got $13,000 though... maybe you will clairify this for me/us?

Subject: Re:
Fencer: Whoops! My bad! I thought the server news said that $15,000 had been given to Brainking in exchange for a membership! That would certainly help buy that new server..... I guess I just misread the news or something, sorry :)

4. March 2005, 14:16:42
Fencer 
What are you talking about?

4. March 2005, 14:13:11
Czuch 
WOW! $15,000! Thats a lot of cash!

Sounds like that new server should not be a problem to obtain now! Woooo Whoooo!

Subject: Re:
Tulip: I dont think anybody disagrees with autovacation to kick in when we are not online here. But Stevies point is ( and many agree) that if you are online here autovacation option should not be kicked in for you. Now if you should have a day set as a vacation day and happen to still get online, then your vacation day should still be used if needed.

I think that normal games should maybe be allowed to take advantage of this rule, but a tournament?? Planned hoildays...YES but not technical issues, or things like that? You would not get conditions like that in a real tournament?

But what the heck, its an added feature now LOL

4. March 2005, 12:48:51
Tulip 
i play on an NTL box through my tv,its well known as a lousy server.
last year i timed out in 24 games as i couldnt get on-line for over 3 days.
i now have auto vacation set in case it happens again.
NTL was off for nearly a week last month and i was glad of the auto feature as it saved my games

4. March 2005, 12:41:38
Badinage 
Thats a good point mate

Stevie 
Subject: Re:
Aragon:some players will be on site but not move a game, hence auto vacation kicks in and delays a game. i feel if a player is on site and times out..it should be just that, a time out

4. March 2005, 12:25:36
Badinage 
I guess a better use of the feature would be that if you had set some vacation days, but were late back it should kick in??

That way if you know you are going away then you set holidays, and if your are delayed for whatever reason it kicks in upto maybe another 7 or so.

But I guess I can see its easy for someone just to disappear for 30 days LOL

How so mate?

Infact it didnt end the game but added 1 day as auto-vacation, I like that feature :)

4. March 2005, 12:13:44
Fencer 
The timeout script is delayed by 5 mins, in order to to improve the overall performance.

4. March 2005, 12:11:22
Badinage 
Ahhh thanks, it went to -5 then ended the game I think :)

Thank you both

Is it not like tourneys where it can go up to an hour?

4. March 2005, 12:10:06
harley 
Aragon, do you know about auto-vacation?
Also, the system updates every hour (or so) so if that game will time out, it will happen in the next hour.
Unless they have auto vacation on.

Aragon: It should not exceed -5 mins.

Has the time out rule on games changed?? I have a game at time to move = -4mins and counting??

Not that im complaining, I dont like to win games by time out! Just curious

Bernice, you are fully aware of why I had to put you on enemies. I'll remove you now, to receive questions only. For the record, you're the only person on my enemies list.

Maybe Fencer could give her another PM box so the ones she has on ENEMIES can at least take part in the fun side of BK......HMMMMM just a thought!!!

Subject: Re: Re:

She collects all the questions, sends them to Eriisa to answer and then posts the completed interview.
I'm working on my list too!

Is something weird going on? A pond game was due to be ready for a new turn 1 hour and 40 minutes ago, and for some reason wont go into the games waiting to be played ?
