I'm taking bets on when will this game end. Any thoughts?

furbster: I don't know any "certain player" so I can't tell.

Would it hurt you a lot if you told us the certain player's nickname?

plaintiger: I agree, "registered" or "submitted", or simply "available" would be better. I'm sure it's a language-barrier matter, as "signed" and "registered" is one word in Czech.

plaintiger: The "signed" tournaments are those you can sign up for.

My, my brother's and my cousin's connections are all good - that's 8 users now - 22428 comments to go.

Pythagoras: I'd hardly call this a "clever" way of winning.

Antje: Of course it is available - you can create stairs for every game you have created a team for within your fellowship.

LuckyCat9, Matarilevich: I think there IS a Birthday board, guys.

Princess Alison: I think they should make one special set of rules particularly for you.

Princess Alison: Write a PM either to a moderator of this board, i.e. harley or NOT a floosie, or to one of the Global Moderators.

Princess Alison: Replying via PM.

Princess Alison: I don't think so.

Princess Alison: Please accept my apology. You're quick though...:)

Dryznik: I don't see the point of this request. What would it be good for besides messing up the entire game database?

Princess Alison: I haven't had any problems with this site that would last for more than a minute.

Walter Montego: Walter, why don't you read the rules first?

Walter Montego: You can't challenge people that are higher than you on the stairs.

Everything a newcomer does on this site between his/her registration and Fencer's aprroval appears as "null".

Matt: I was say for example over 200 points ahead of my nearest rival and about 500+ points ahead of the next four players below second place. Now Im only 100 points ahead of my top 5 or so players. Therefore, this is NOT a true reflection of the ratings is it?.

I think and believe that under the BKR formula that is used now, the gap of 100 points corresponds to a gap of 200+ points under the previous formula. That means that to be able to "hunt you down", your opponents would have to do the same job, win the same amount of games, both under this and the former one. You have to take into consideration this fact: Before, it was WAY easier to gain BKR points. All you had to do was play opponents within 400 BKR points and you always gained 8 points if you won. Now, it's not that simple. Going up is much more difficult and e.g. for you as the best spider player here, it seems like something almost impossible to get back where you had been with your rating before the BKRs were recalculated.

Rose, Giorgos: She said moderators, that means she didn't mean just Whisperz but also someone else must have "stepped on her bunion". If you asked me what I thought about her leaving, I'd say "I'm not disappointed".

Pythagoras: What would be the goal of the game for the black if there were two maharajahs?

Doerdich: Well, I think you should ask the person who translated the BK into German why he added his own rules there and didn't just translate the site. Look at any other language version and you won't find anything about crazyhouse.

Marfitalu: Is it this game?

Fencer: Will such person receive another 30 vac days by Jan 1?

Fencer: http://brainking.com/cz/ShowGame?g=952182

Fencer: Not properly, this game still says it's my move:

I think there are very few reports of the problem concerning not finishing and back-coming games. Can please more people report this bug there?

I think it's already working again...

Spirou: http://brainking.com/en/Help?ht=13

bumble: You're absolutely correct!!!

wellywales: No spell checker is perfect plus sometimes it might be confusing for the reader...I recommend not to use any, we will definitely know what you want to say

Maxxina: Huh? I think you need a translator yourself...

rod03801: Nick changed, my profile still says "First login: 23. July 2003, 02:09:52"
Changing back...

Yes, we'll have to wait for Fencer to approve it. I changed it to Pedro Martínezz.

OK, I'll change my nick now. Let's see what will happen.

tazman7474: I doubt that...look at Chuck's profile for instance:
http://brainking.com/cz/Profile?u=5745
He's definitely changed his nick since logging in for the first time.

Hm...that's intersting. The only explanation that comes to my mind right now is that Fencer set the start of the membership to June instead of July since the Czech names of these months are very similar (červen, červenec).

rod03801: Who is it? I looked for "someone", but found only "someonespecial" who is a pawn.

I can record some noises for several smileys, such as , or

mrloupcity: I don't believe what you described is happening. Moreover, more people are coming to this great site than leaving (I mean paying members).

ClayNashvilleTn: I understand that, Clay. But PMs are a better instrument for that purpose, in my opinion.

ClayNashvilleTn: Clay, please, stop it. Flame pit was created and designed with the view that people WILL be offending and hurting each other there. Anyone who can't stand it can leave. Plus he/she can put anyone on the enemies list. I don'r see how the Flame Pit is hurting the BK. You don't have to read what's being said there and you'll be just fine. Stop trying to raise people.

Spirou: Gebruikersovereenkomst

nobleheart: OH, sorry, forget I said something...*shrinks back under the table*

I don't understand the reason for this "voting". If you think somebody's cheating, let Fencer know. Period. Why would BK need some voting?

Funny. I wonder what's that woman's problem.

uptowngirl: That makes it 1 move every 10 seconds, if I count well...wow

nobleheart: euro dollar?

Andersp: I see you translated the "cloak mode" as "dold"...very clever IMO...

SunFire: You should have looked at his profile more closely. He has Thu and Fri as weekend days and other days as regular vacation days. That's why the number of his remaining vac days have stayed at 9 days for some time now...I just recommend to be patient, in two weeks at the latest, he'll have to start moving...

You have my deepest respect, Clay. I consider the ability to admit one's mistake one of the greatest characteristics of a human being.
