BrainKing - Panouri de discuţii (BrainKing.com)

grant: If you get only a part of a page, it is definitely a network problem, not a BrainKing problem.
But as I can see, the problem is solved because it is your opponent's turn to move.

Well, we want to run it until the new hardware is purchased and placed on-line. Please don't be alarmed if new.brainking.com is occasionally down - it means that Liquid is tuning the load balancer or installing some additional tools.

11. Noiembrie 2003, 20:40:18

What did you mean, then? :-)

11. Noiembrie 2003, 20:32:59

As I already wrote, it cannot be done immediately. But it is planned, of course.

11. Noiembrie 2003, 19:40:44

Of course it works.

11. Noiembrie 2003, 18:45:58

Oops, BBW is faster :-)

11. Noiembrie 2003, 18:44:40

You don't have to post absolute URLs, use relative ones instead. Something like <a href=/game/Board?bc=1>this board</a>. Then it will work everywhere.

11. Noiembrie 2003, 14:37:49

And hurry up! Or everybody jumps in and the site collapses :-)

11. Noiembrie 2003, 14:23:57

bumble: Although I agree with you, it is not possible at the moment. The new version of BrainKing will support redirecting paying members to the faster server automatically.

11. Noiembrie 2003, 10:23:19

I don't guarantee that it will be faster forever. It still needs some tuning :-)

11. Noiembrie 2003, 08:56:44

Subiectul: Test mode

Anybody who wants to participate in testing of our experimental configuration, feel free to use http://new.brainking.com. It is not a new version of BrainKing, only a kind of simple load balancer on our current servers.
It could be faster and more stable. If you have problems with that, you can always return to normal BrainKing.com URL.

Subiectul: Re: Chess Club Tourneys

Of course. But it will be safer if you send me links to these tournaments, otherwise I could accidentally remove some other games.

5. Noiembrie 2003, 23:01:21

Within a week.

5. Noiembrie 2003, 19:55:29

danoschek: If you resign only the first game, the match will continue in the second game.

5. Noiembrie 2003, 09:20:26

Whoa! Over 200 requests handled this morning and more than 100 waiting in a queue. I'm taking a rest, will be idle for at least one hour ;-)

ellie: I don't know if there is another solution. Or do you suggest something else?

5. Noiembrie 2003, 08:23:14

Subiectul: Re: HAHAHAHA

It's not easy to make an universal conclusion. Well, the easiest way for me is to let people continue with the started games. But if you are sure about correct results, I can finish these games.

Subiectul: Re: I don't much see the point

Greg,
I don't want to start another argument so I'll say it shortly:

1) It's everyone's right to stop playing here and it is not necessary to announce it at discussion boards.
2) When you make large enterprise applications, you usually don't do it alone and as a side project.
3) I never criticize someone else's work unless I know as much background information as possible. Especially when the work covers more jobs than a mere programming.

Just wait for Brainking being my full-time job, then you can judge me.

4. Noiembrie 2003, 19:49:37

jason: The data were backed up on a daily basis. As I already wrote on BrainKing.info, the backup server had crashed too. At the same day. Really bad luck, eh?

4. Noiembrie 2003, 19:29:24

Subiectul: Re: So what happens now?

Pioneer: Just an addition to harley's post. When the investment is done, I will post it immediately to the Server News. It means that nothing like that happened so far, that's why we are still running on the old hardware.

4. Noiembrie 2003, 18:09:39

Thanks everyone :-)
Radiant: Since I can't remember the board description, could you please provide it once more? Thanks ;-)

Subiectul: Re: Rating question concerning Game ID: 123222

Hi Radiant,
the reason is that your opponent's BKR is very low, compared to yours. Please read the FAQ page.

Subiectul: Re: tonyhawk2004

Thank you Harley.
I am trying to be as patient with any user as possible but sometimes it isn't possible at all.

8. Septembrie 2003, 08:12:46

Subiectul: Re: tonyhawk2004

I've already told this guy what to do [yesterday]. His response is still the same, about leaving BrainKing. Well, there is not much else to say to a person who sends complaints to all sides 16 hours after registering his BK account.

5. Septembrie 2003, 10:12:46

Wait a minute.

5. Septembrie 2003, 09:03:00

Crissie: Try it again.

3. Septembrie 2003, 12:02:24

And what do you think that happens after another useless post like this one of yours? The servers will automatically start working faster? An unexpected load of money will appear on my bank account and I'll be able to buy new machines?
I don't like complaints without suggested solutions. Especially from non-paying members.

Done.

21. August 2003, 11:03:05

Database deamon only decided to restart itself. Uh-oh. Liquid is tuning its parameters.

20. August 2003, 10:04:41

I've turned off the database replication, no other "phantom" data storing should happen again. Bloody computers! I need a vacation.

20. August 2003, 08:24:15

Hold on. I don't know what happened, I wasn't here during yesterday's night. I'll check it.

Subiectul: Re: IE Problems!!

Aragon: BrainKing has nothing to do with Java plug-in. Yes, BrainKing is written in Java but only on server side. Browsers get HTML pages, nothing more.

17. August 2003, 19:52:01

I love Microsoft, they know better than you what you want to see in your IE ;-)

17. August 2003, 09:46:23

Subiectul: Re: Fencer

It never happened to me [I use Netscape]. Probably one of IE "smart" features :-)

16. August 2003, 09:49:33

It seems that aggregation of web and application servers and database replication are worth something :-)

14. August 2003, 14:40:44

I should update FAQ ;-)

13. August 2003, 11:23:33

Subiectul: Re: E-Mail

Because our mail server is down. Use internal messages instead.

13. August 2003, 11:10:54

Hmmm, since a database crash is very rare event [it never happened before and the site has been launched almost a year ago], I would not define any policy for such situation.

12. August 2003, 07:05:20

Please read Server News.
