1) Christmas Special! Everybody who pays for any kind of membership (or extends the current one) and makes it to the end of this year (2004), will automatically get one FREE month of the same membership as a Christmas present.
2) And for the doubtful ones, there is one temptation - BrainKing brings the first multiplayer game which is accessible for paying members only. The number of participants is unlimited and the name is Run round the Pond.

Thanks Paulo, but the guy made time out today and he is on vacation only tomorrow...

6. декември 2004, 21:56:50

pauloaguia

Nuno: yes, paying members do have the option to set autovacation on which means that, when they timeout, the time will be extended for another day in exchange for a vacation day (if it's a rook, then they have 30 vacation days to use).

Fencer: Don't worry - Opera doesn't reload the pages when I use the back button ;)

Hi! is there any special rule for paying members to never time out?

Hi just did this a few days ago. Was a knight with about 10 months to go on that, and paid for a year of rook, and became a rook straight away.

OK BBW. I wrote you a PM. nJust ignore it LOL

coan.net

Don't quote me, but I think he can do it 2 ways.

1) Buy a rook membership, then when that expires, you will be turned into a "knight" for however long you have left on your current membership.

2) See if you can "convert" your knight membership into rook membership - that is let say for every 2 months of Knight = 1 month of rook.

Again, best thing to do is wait for Fencer, or send him a note in case he does not see your post in here.

Ok Jules - I didnt know if you were at the end of Knight or upgraded like Skyking does. Looks like you'll have to wait for Fencer to reply.

I have knight Membership til December next year yet I want to turn it into a rook for the year?

6. декември 2004, 18:59:52

Mort

No Bry, I just bought meself rook membership to add on to the few days left there were of knight membership. I don't know if it's all Rook now, or I might have some knight days sitting at the end.

Fencer, how does it work?

6. декември 2004, 18:57:55

Skyking - ask Jules - I think he has just done it.

Then you have to wait for a cache control option. For paying members only, of course.

Относно: Re: Back Buttons

tonyh: Nothing unless you go back to a page which is no longer valid. For example, a game page containing an old position. Firefox handles this situation by a forced reload but it doesn't work with IE.

Btw, as you can see, the interviews have been moved from BrainKing.info to this site. The reason is that I've created a new interview system which allows me to process and add new ones much faster and with several neat features.

pauloaguia: Don't use back buttons. It's the worst thing that could even happen to any web application developer.

5. декември 2004, 22:16:33

pauloaguia

switch to Opera. I use it and never had a problem... not to mention I can set the zoom level for the page and keep it that way, so that the board will allways fit in the screen.
One thing I have against firefox: whenever I use the back button the page is reloaded... I think it's a waste of bandwith and time
IE... well, My main complaint is that I can't have multiple tabs, besides from that never had any problem with it either (at BK that is).

Относно: FireFox

Well, my experience with BK and Firefox is rather bad. I recently switched from IE to FF. In FF the pages load much slower than in IE not to mention reformatting of the columns. Especially when making moves, the difference is enormous. Actually I use IE for playing at Brainking and FF everywhere else. Is BK not optimized for FF or is it just me?

Относно: Images are not displayed in IE?

Recently, the images in my IE browser are not always displayed. For example, when I make a move in a dark chess, the board is not refreshed properly. I tried to refresh the page, but many of the images are displayed. I get a rex "x" instead of many squares on a board. The only workaround I found is to go to main page and open the same game from there.

Also, I noticed that the main page is loading forever, and eventually fails to load the firefox logo in the left-bottom corner.

Does anyone else experience the same thing? And no, I don't want to switch from IE to Firefox.

Относно: The Caps Lock button

Променен от Walter Montego (5. декември 2004, 18:40:15)

On my computer, I removed the key itself. That eliminated all my problems with it Slamdance. Unfortunately I'm not using my computer and have to carefull around that key. I always wonder why they put next to the "a" on a keyboard. If I wanted the capitals locked, I use a more remotely placed key like say up by the function keys then right next to letters that I type a lot. Anyway, assuming it's your computer, just pry the little bugger up and dispense it with alacrity to your nearest waste recepticle and enjoy Caps Lock free typing for now on. :)
