ah thanks :)

The script always adds only 24 hours when the automatic vacation is used. If the result is still negative, the next script invocation [each 10 minutes] will add another 24 hours, etc. Of course, only when the user has some vacation days left.

thanks :)

and with automatic vacation days when games have more than 1 day of negative time .. will it use more than 1 vacation day or will they be timed out .. or will they use more than 1 vacation days

23. November 2004, 20:41:29
Fencer 
All games with negative time left will be timeouted when the time is started. With suspended time, automatic vacation is not used.

what happens when game time isnt suspended anymore ?

i mean .. what happens to the games that have negative time left now ..

i guess games which are less than 1 day over time can use an automatic vacation day (when they have it set) .. does this also works for games with more than 1 day negative time left ?

are vacation days still used even though game time is suspended ? :)

If I post a link to a game position at another site, will BrainKing non-members be able to view the game?

And, how I do know Fencer, he will gladly extend your membership before it ends, no matter he has the money yet or not, when he is ensured the money is on its way.

Subject: Suspended time
Currently the game time is suspended. When it is suspended, is the auto-refresh suspended also?

Thats not off topic, mrloupcity.

Try www.xe.com for a conversion. And if you look on www.brainking.info you will find a list of representatives in your country who help out with membership payments.

Subject: To Fencer or any1 that can help
I see my membership runs out on the 5th of Dec. The money order will be in the mail on the first, hope this will not put a glich in my membership. The 1 thing I need to know is 28 EUR/year = what in USA $ ? And the next thing is where do I send it?
But if any1 with paypal or any other way to pay for memberships. I would gladly send the money order to u if u care to help me out with adding a year to my account. So as to not go off topic here PM me.

And anyway - no-one is perfect, so from time to time, s*it happens, to be politically uncorrect. So, unless you personally are perfect, let others not to be too. And ... if you will be not angry with things you can't prevent,your life will be much happier

There is an option of playing unrated. A check box as you create the game. And if you put in your profile that you only accept unrated games, you shouldn't have too much of a problem.
Its frustrating for everyone when this kind of thing happens, but there is no point getting angry about it. It can't be helped :o)

Mamba - either pay for membership and contribute to a better, more stable games site here (which is what you are moaning about) - or go and play elsewhere. Simple. Like it or lump it. No-one is making you play here (for free).

good question...i guess i'm as competitive as the next guy and always hopeful that this wil be the last time it will burn up....but it never is it seems and the ratings get more and more inaccurate...tough to win a game twice we should get double points...lol...just kiddin'..i say dump the points..!!

22. November 2004, 20:25:47

Mamba: If the ratings don't mean anything to you, or you don't like them, why not just play the games for fun and ignore the ratings?

Subject: Troubles at the site?
Had to work today.. didn't noticed anything strange at my games when i came home just an hour ago... I am sorry to read about the troubles though.... Thanks Fencer and Liquid for making this a great site: keep up the good work!!! :-)

There are backups. How do you think we only lost a handful of hours

22. November 2004, 20:23:29
Joseph S 
i'm still a pawn by choice...twice i've had the chance to be raised to a castle or a horse and i turned them down.....and don't blame this crap on me...let's look at who's problem it is and why with all the money you all say your giving him isn;'t there some sort of backup or night watchman to see that this doesn't happen..??

22. November 2004, 20:22:30

Mamba - It has been talked about to hide the ratings from pawns, but I'm surprised to hear a pawn actually agree with that!

22. November 2004, 20:21:03

Thats one unpaid member vote against how many? LOL

22. November 2004, 20:20:25

i'd rather there were no ratings..!!!...get rid of them

Someone's a pawn for more than a year and complaining about service?? What a nut.

22. November 2004, 20:18:57
Stevie 
I thought it was 3 months last time ;o). So as a pawn...how many moves did you have to replay this afternoon? 20 at the most I guess. I bet you are really hard done by eh

Subject: Mamba
What do you do with your rating?

22. November 2004, 20:16:50
Joseph S 
the only thing i'm complaining about is that there is a ratings system here..!!...it's not very accurate if you ask me....last october when it crashed and we all lost an entire MONTHS worth of games we were told it would all be ok...send him our ratings as we remembered them and they'd be reinstated....well last month all the games i had resigned because i was ASS-ured it would be ok and my ratings would not reflect them as losses all got turned around and they ARE losses now...so am i to believe him again telling me the same thing...you rally round a liar i'm not..!!

22. November 2004, 19:53:49
Stevie 
once again BBW...you are so right ;o) xoxoxoxox LOL

I lost a few moves...so what, must be worth maybe a cent??? i wont complain about that :o) Backups every day now, you cant do it much more frequent than that can you

22. November 2004, 18:44:59
coan.net 
Exactly, and I know mine and others comments about "pawns" are only to the very minor part of the pawn population here.

Most pawns bring game playing to this site, and possible some day bring money in the form of a membership to this site.

It is only a small handful which cause problems, unforntatly - those are the loudest ones sometimes.
