Asunto: Re:
Marfitalu: You'll start with 15d but no bonus is added for each move... the last number is irrelevant: it could have just as well been 0, I think.

Actually I did a mistake: this setup would last at most 30d, since it's 15d for each player.

Asunto: Re: RSS feed of Server News
Fencer: Another suggestion. On some pages there is some sort of special code that makes some browsers react to it. For instance, in Opera, whenever I visit a page that somehow has some RSS connection, A small blue RSS icon appears on the address bar. If I click on it I immediatelly get the option of subscribing that feed.
I think it has something to do with code like
<link rel="alternate" href="ADDRESS/news.rss" type="application/rss+xml" title="Server news"/>

I think it could be a nice thing to implement here as well, and that code could go on the ServerNews page. At least while there is no reference to the RSS feed anywhere on the site (that I've seen, anyway).

Asunto: Re: Print version
Fencer: I'd like to suggest that the Printer Friendly version of this page didn't have the message box in it. No point to have a message form on paper is there? ;)

Haven't checked the rest of the site yet, but I like the idea...

Binabik: Don't play one of those games against someone who lives in Europe or Asia... unless you know him (her) preety well and can aggree on a time to both be online and play your moves...

On the other hand, you can set the time settings so that it allows for roughly a move per day and everyone can be happy about it...

Asunto: Re:
Fencer: The opinion of "a lot of pawns" is not important.

Pawns still make up for most of the members on this site. Without them you'd have no site!
Anyway, pawns will be able to buy vacation days as well, right?

Luke Skywalker: The fact that you can now start games where vacation days don't count might make it easier on the pawns.

Asunto: Autovacation and fixed weekend
Modificado por pauloaguia (14. Junio 2005, 20:43:04)
So... when you select the option of fixed weekend in a game that means that autovacation won't save you from timing out... Right?

(where was this option when I was just a pawn? )

Asunto: Re:
rod03801: Maybe an option to see the game DB's only in my language like there is one for fellowships? But then again, I use the portuguese version of the site but would still like to see the english DB's (and maybe a couple more). So maybe an option for favourite languages or something?

And there is no visual hint that those flags are clickable. Everyone that has been here long enough will try to click them to access the DB, but newcomers might not get that idea... the link should be on the numbers, or a small message like "board (click flags)". It's just not very intuitive the way it is now, in my opinion.

Backgammonfan28: I have noticed lately that in my opinion, it seems the dice favor the lower rated player
And did you ever noticed that when you're stuck in traffic the other lane is always moving faster? ;)

It's called selective memory... and it's a fact of life I'm not attacking what you said or anything...

Asunto: Re: Fellowships and Posts
Luke Skywalker: At least that's the real reason for me not wanting to join a fellowship right now - I would't have the time for all the extra games (and boards too)

Asunto: Re: Fellowships and Posts
Walter Montego: No, pawns cannot join fellowships. It's a paying members perk.
Your suggestion would remove some of the incentive for pawns to become paying members, since many of them do that preciselly to be able to join fellowships.

Asunto: Re: All these negative days
rabbitoid: Anyway seems to be fixed. My negative times have been coming back to normal on all the games I moved today... The only ones remaining are the ones that still haven't moved today and those that should have normally timed out.

Asunto: Cloak mode
Only downside I found so far: I can't tell 'fake onlines' appart from the rest. What I call a fake online is someone that is on the main page, with autorefresh on, but hasn't moved from there for at least 15min. So they appear to be online when in fact they are somewhere else...
Last night I caught a usually 'fake onliner' in cloak mode... I couldn't tell if she was just with autorefresh on or if I should stick around a few minutes to wait for her to move (I payed off to stick around )

Maybe auto-refresh shouldn't count for your online status?

11. Mayo 2005, 21:31:06

Asunto: About this cloak mode thinguie...
I know it says so on the FAQ, but shouldn't it also say here that cloak mode is a feature for paying members only?
Just so when people weight it out between paying or not they know exactly what they're (not) buying...

I'm at a worst predicament - when in portuguese setting, the calendar never shows properly, no matte rhow many times I click the flag
I even posted a bug in the Bug Tracker... [wondering what Fencer will think of the first bug posted in portuguese ]

All smiles codes can be found on the smile shelp page that you can access through the question mark next to the smile icon above every message box.

You already get about 140 days each year that you don't have to play. Why do you need more than that?

Asunto: Re: Re:
Czuch Chuckers: Actually I think it can. Imagine you have auto-vacation on. You timeout on a Friday, at 00:10. AV kicks in, the day is set as vacation and you get extra 24h. All the way through Friday it will give the impression that you have less than 24h to 'live'.
But then, on Sat at 00:10, you timeout. But since you can't timeout on a weekend, you get the extra 48h (or is it 24h again? not sure here).

I've seen this happen a few times before, so I guess it's the way it works...

Great, now I won't know what everyone is talking about...
What's a * 133 *? or a * 135 *? or a * 128 *?
Is it because it's April fool's day?
