OK, am I going nuts - occasionally this morning, I have seen some small BK icons on top of some discussion boards - sometimes to the left of the board name, sometimes on top/middle of a discussion board. I go back to the page, and it is gone.

Fencer - are you playing around with something new again or did I not get enough sleep last night and my mind is messing with me?

anastasia: Ok

heavenlyemma: OK!!! ,lol!!! hey,you better jump down to the animals board and give us an update on those babies!!!

anastasia: Send him a PM then

heavenlyemma: I'n not shy at all!!!!

King Reza: Nahhhh i'm just kidding i'm to shy for all that lol

heavenlyemma:I hav eposted the rules.  Wanna be interviewed?  Send me a message.

King Reza: Hey Interview me

We'll be having interviews every now and then.  The person to interview will be chosen by players' votes.  Every time I announce an interview is on the way, players have two weeks to send me personal messages here, with "Next Interviewee" as the subject.  They should include the person's user name and ID number just in case the person decides to change his/her name.  After the two weeks, I'll see if there's someone many people want to see an interview with.  If there's no such person, I'll choose one of the suggested persons myself. 

Please, in each message, only mention one person.

After that, I'll announce the person's name and players can start sending me questions they like to ask the selected person.  As simple as that.

King Reza: who hoooooooooooooooooo

bouncybouncy:But you can be next.

bouncybouncy:Nope!

King Reza: IS it me Is it me

Fencer:How?

King Reza: Fencer says do it.

TeamBundy:I totally agree.  Let's see what Fencer says.

King Reza: I think your initiative is really good! I would be more for a "interviewing-committee", in the sense that the interviews were carried out offline anyhow and the interviewers duties were to collect the questions and then pass them on for publication on the site. The reason I'd be for a committee is so that more people are involved and more of the evergrowing facets and plurality (if there is such a word! ) of BK can be interviewed/represented! :)

Summertop:Yeah well it's no problem with me.  And, if everybody agrees, I do have one person to be interviewed in mind

nightmagic: Don't tell me to shut up i'll do it on my own...

nightmagic: vacation! you are trying so hard to update so fast on this site. It is the best i've been to in 5 years.... Please don't go over board like others have as to improve what already works. Just my voice as i have, and have been there to see others strangle them selfs. A little at at time.... I'm here for the long haul... but have been at others that went so fast. Don't mind me... just speaking mind as i've seen others. I like this site the best, great people, good games.

but it was ok in old games. know you need to NEW update and ok. good job but help in other areas not yet addressed that have needed attention.

King Reza: Sounds to me like you just volunteered

Since Harley no longer plays on BrainKing, I was wondering who in here stead is going to continue interviewing people.  It was totally nice reading the interviews, but I take it in her absence there won't be anymore if none takes her place.

onigoroshi: as a rook you can go to your settings page, there you go to the calendar tab where you can set specific vacation days

i guess pawns can do that as well ? but i am not sure :)

onigoroshi:Go to your Settings page.

um, as a pawn, how can I use vacation?

Brian1971& King Reza: this has little to do with the site brainking.

please take it to the appropriate board. i think no public board on a games site is meant for a discussion like this, so you might best continue this in a fellowship

(for the remembering the thoughts & prayers board seems most appropriate)

Brian1971:Pity I have forgotten the date that the U.S. attacked Iraq and killed many many people in its 'fighting with terrorism.'  If you remember that date, please make sure to post a message then too.

I know this is an international site. However September 11, 2006 marks the 5 year anniversaryof the terror attacks in the USA. That attack changed the entire international landscape. Thousands died and I think their deaths should be remembered. I think unless the entire international community joins together to fight global terror we will never have peace on Earth. So on this day I ask everyone to say a little prayer that evil be defeated and that eternal peace can be attained. Please take a moment today to appreciate all that you have and be kind to your fellow man. Thank you.

TeamBundy: okie dokie see you there

bouncybouncy: jupp, let's take it to the PC board instead! :)

TeamBundy: My daughter had blubster running, which was a site for downloading music onto her I-pod. I also have Zonealarm running constantly as well, that had a bit of a glitch in it but it is sorted now. Now and again my screen freezes as well, like you said for a matter of seconds, sometimes there is no reason for it, it could be your ISP just slowing down and then kicking itself back in again.

Hmmm i am now wondering if this could be and we should take it to the computer board. If i can be of any further help please let me know.

bouncybouncy: what was the programm you had running in the background when you connected to the internet? I defragmented my disk last night and going to run the clear disk space today. What other things did you run? I'm actually not having problems with the loading of sites, but with my PC in general... every now and then the PC freezes for like a second until it resumes.

DamnCat: Hey come on, dont be like that . Sometimes it can be traffic, but primarily, it could be your ISP, have you tried clearing your cache, history, try defragmenting as well and running the programming for clearing up disk space as well, every little helps. I also found out that my daughter and been running a programme in the background, so when i connected to the internet, the programme would start up and i didnt have a clue what it was until she told me. It can be a numerous amount of things. Fencer isnt being touchy, if there was a problem with the site, believe me he would let us all know.

Fencer: A little touchy, are we? How am I supposed to know that the problem is not on the server side? If I knew that I wouldn't have posted the message but I DIDN'T. I was just asking if anybody else had the same problem. But excuse me, I won't be posting anymore here then.

DamnCat: Nope I find the site Fast on my PC

DamnCat: I was havign the same problem a couple of days ago, and it was my ISP, it might be your ISP as well, have it checked out like i did.

DamnCat: Nonsense. I am currently connected via GPRS and it's fast anyway.
Moreover, what's the point of posting something like "the site is slow"? Who do you expect to solve it when the problem is not at the server side?

This site is freakishly slow at the moment... anybody else experiencing this? Could it be that a lot are online and playing?

Fencer: Guess that means i will let you play then LOL

MadMonkey: Precisely. That's the solution.

Fencer: You cant try, theres no Remove Drop Box.

MadMonkey: Have you tried to remove someone from a Dark Pond?

Jason: :) thx but i'm ok,lol. I think! Just miss my games when no one is here!

The Creator of a Tournament has the option to remove any player(s) they wish from it should they need to.
How does this work in a Run in the Dark Pond ??? Even the Creator does not know who is in it

Jason: Yes , worries me to, but in a funny sort of way

nightmagic: I worry about you at times .

nightmagic: I pock des ned, wos d'Leit aus'm Englisch mocha.

nightmagic: pertaining to the ones in this. sorry. should have gone to them straight up but it seems they didn't want that. here i am lol.to many games at hand u forget a few, not good !

nightmagic: all that talk about playing the games, u know who u r, would like you to play the games a hand for now u can talk as u play.
