Well.. blame isn't really the correct word... and I almost edited my post to reflect that.. lol.. but figured people would know how I meant it..

Perhaps the creator of Gothic Chess should be blamed for its removal, and NOT Fencer.

Fencer has been patient long enough with this man.

Wow. 182 people on the site as I type this. Fencer, what is the highest amount of people on the site at one time so far?

well I guess not then! I was taught they were necessary

It might take a while. I think all nic changes are approved by Fencer now. Though maybe that is just the profile part..

10. August 2005, 02:59:06
rod03801 
Right, but it shouldn't! I like to see how long someone has been playing on brainking. And I am also proud that I have been here for quite a while, and don't want that to change if I ever decide to change my nic.

10. August 2005, 02:39:05
rod03801 
If it IS that, then I'm thinking it's probably a bug, because I don't recall that happening in the past, when someone changed their nic.

10. August 2005, 02:37:05
rod03801 
I was thinking that. But, it shouldn't change the "First login" date, in my mind.

10. August 2005, 02:31:36
rod03801 
LOL.. "someone" was just a general term. I didn't want to necessarily mention names. But Saruman below is an example.

Subject: Becoming a member before even coming to the site?
It seems like I am running into a lot of profiles lately where their first login to the site is later than when their membership started. (For example, someone's rook membership would be June 1, 2005 to December 1, 2005. Then lower down it says their first login was July 11, 2005.) How can this be? I have run in to at least 4 or 5 over the last couple weeks.

Oh.. what is RSS reader?

With WebTV, I saw a version of the Server News page with all the HTML showing.

I can't remember where I read it, now. I just looked under "Help" and couldn't see it there. I also started the process of creating a game, to see if that was where I saw it, but didn't see it there either..

It isn't an option I myself would choose. But I can see 2 people who are friends, playing a friendly game, might choose the option. I'm sure someone in this situation wouldn't find it foolish or silly at all..
Simply don't use it, and don't sign up for games that use it..

24. July 2005, 22:04:02
rod03801 
wellywales, with the new fisher clock timeouts, it is possible to create a game that will never time out. I am assuming that is what happened.

Did anyone ask about the tea cozy???

10. July 2005, 15:55:18
rod03801 
7227 moves yesterday??? WOW! I'm impressed!

7. July 2005, 02:34:33
rod03801 
Or whatever the bonus is. So basically, if you are concerned about time outs, you should look at what the "bonus" time is, as that will be the minimum amount of time you will ever have between moves ... ????

7. July 2005, 02:33:10
rod03801 
So, if you are a slow mover, you would potentially be down to 1 day per move all the time. Do I have that correct?

7. July 2005, 02:16:09
rod03801 
So, if I moved quickly all the time in this tournament, I could potentially have a 10 day time limit? (Getting the 1 day bonus each move) Am I interpreting that part correctly?
I'm not quite understanding how it helps play faster games.. I guess I need to see it in action to get it.. Unless someone can make me understand better? :-)

26. June 2005, 20:32:54
rod03801 
Hmm... same as one of the shirts. I don't remember exactly right now.

26. June 2005, 20:11:35

I just asked Fencer if he would have one made, and I described what I wanted, and I got it.

I'm shy!

lol

I'll see what I can do..

I just bought a Brainking baseball cap, and I love it, and wear it everywhere! Fencer's wife does great work.

Nothing is really wrong with it.. And what paulo said is true.. but I unfortunately don't speak any of those languages, and will never click to see what's on those discussion boards anyways. I wish I could though! lol..

Fencer, it seems like that is starting to happen on the game boards now? I notice I am told how many new messages the Czech discussion boards have, when I am playing that game..(at the top of the game board) ..

For example, when playing Backgammon, at the top, it tells me that the Czech Backgammon discussion board has 215 new messages..

12. May 2005, 02:18:17

Yes.. first new feature I have ever hated..
Oh well! :-)

Check out profiles of people.. They have changed a bit. Nice job..

Edit: However, now that people's tournaments are listed on a seperate page anyways, couldn't they ALL be listed, instead of having to click "more".. Made sense when everything was on the one profile page, but now that it's seperate, it seems they could all be listed.

But Maxxina's weekend days shouldn't affect the day the game times out for HIM. Why should his weekend days be added to MrLoupcity's own time to make a move?

I have noticed this before, then stopped noticing it, and assumed it got fixed.

Czuch, she was asking if you had cleared them, because that would clear that info out. She wasn't recommending you do it.
I would go to the main login page at www.brainking.com and make sure those areas are still filled out. I imagine they probably aren't. Just re-do it.

16. April 2005, 21:24:30

yes, of course..

This is a private website.. not a Democracy.
Fencer has a user agreement that says moderation issues should be taken private, and not aired on the public board.
No vote necessary.

Thanks, Fencer!

Can't. With WebTV the javascript option doesn't work. I wonder how many others there are that we don't see on that list?

3. April 2005, 09:10:44
rod03801 
My point is, why aren't these on the list I see when I click the "?" above message boxes? And if it is not on this page, how do people know about it?

3. April 2005, 09:00:46
rod03801 
There is no 135 on the list I see...
Don't see that wolf anywhere either

Subject: Missing smileys?
Is the smiley list up to date? I swear I saw one that had a smiley holding a sign saying "Brainking is #1", yet I do not see it on the list.

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: Re: automatic login
anastasia: If you type www.brainking.com into the GoTo box, it should take you to the login page. At least it does for me. (I normally come to the site through an F-key, which brings me directly to my main page).
Then once you are on the login page, tell it there to remember your info again. You will be all set until the next time you clear your cookies!

Subject: 5 consecutive day limit?
Fencer has the limit of 5 autovactions in any game been implemented yet? (I think that's the number that was said...)

22. January 2005, 20:56:54
rod03801 
Is this an appropriate use of this discussion board though?

5. January 2005, 04:10:18
rod03801 
Adding my 2 cents...

Deleting inactive players from the ratings/ranking charts is a fabulous idea!

Removing pawns from these lists though, I too think is a bad idea.. I would rather see how I compare with thousands of people, rather than just a few hundred. Maybe if our paid membership base had more people, it would be okay..
