Pedro Martínez:  thanks  

Artful Dodger: I woudn't call it a "grace period", but games time out approx. 5-6 minutes after the time runs out.

Artful Dodger: i think its checked once every hour ... but i could be mistaken :)

WinterAngel: there is a webtv fellowship, I believe...you may join and find the answer to your questions there.

http://brainking.com/en/ShowFellowship?fid=85

is there a grace period for timing out on games or do they time out exactly when time runs out?

Vikings: ah so..................thanks for that............

Bernice: It wont let you move your piece that is in the 6 spot because you wouldn't then be able to move a second piece so you have to move your piece that is in the 11 spot first

Hyper Backgammon (Bernice vs. Pepi®)

can someone look at this and tell me why it wont let me move

rabbitoid:guess it depends on which way you look at it :O)

rabbitoid: Yes a smile when it comes to the thought of my Grandkids.. haha.. way different then when the babies were my children..

ScarletRose: no objection to the description, but do you mean to tell us that with you, during the administration of the treatment, the subject resembles, even remotely, to a smiley? lucky you!

Eriisa: Don't forget the wiping, especially on those icky teething ones.

 Tuesday:  

Eriisa:Man was I confused until I remembered my original question ...  Thanks!

ScarletRose:There's no sticky strips on my smileys!!

alanback: Settings > Javascript....



THEN you lay them on the table.. get some powder and a fresh diaper.. Then.. tear back the sticky strap.. and discard the icky poohie diaper.. Dust with powder and restrap the new diaper..

alanback: first you lay them on the table.. get some powder and a fresh diaper.. Then.. tear back the sticky strap.. and discard the icky poohie diaper..
Dust with powder and restrap the new diaper..

How can I change my favorite smileys?

pauloaguia: you are right... I guess this one has too many sides for an easy, one size fits all, solution.

Czuch: I can see some reasons why people could prefer to still receive those messages.
I think you still have the hability to get out of the fellowship... or you can always ask the BB to kick you out

Fencer, if you are going to change some pawn things around.... when you revert back to a pawn, you should not receive group fellowship messages anymore, my box is full of them, and I cant even get in there to change my preferences, it should just be automatic?

Hrqls: Funny thing was that the lady at MS did not know anything about the policy... I had to send a copy of the email to her from the laptop company. That's when they/she said sorry.

(V): a free copy of xp sp3 ? nice! i should call them as well ;)

please move this discussion to the computer board

rabbitoid: I don't.... I've only seen two articles on MS recently. This one and another which reported a mess up by MS over a patch that caused some people to lose the internet connection thanks to compatibility problems with a firewall program.

.... I in that case had to phone MS to find out which patch to remove.

.... Oh there has been one incident regarding MS though over policy which I took them to task relating to a laptop makers ability to keep software before a certain date that was basically essential if the laptop went unstable and needing a complete wipe and reload.

..... In the end MS said sorry and sent me a free copy of XP sp3 for my partners laptop.

rod03801: So this time the "wolf" cry really corresponds to something? My apologies to (V), and of course this doesn't change much my opinion of MS products.

rabbitoid: True, but this also made the News today too.

(V): yawn

I'm no big fan of MS, but this is something I get hundreds of by email each day. My /dev/null folder is always hungry

Users of Microsoft's Internet Explorer are being urged by experts to switch to a rival until a serious security flaw has been fixed. The flaw in Microsoft's Internet Explorer could allow criminals to take control of people's computers and steal their passwords, internet experts say.

Microsoft urged people to be vigilant while it investigated and prepared an emergency patch to resolve it.

"Microsoft says it has detected attacks against IE 7.0 but said the "underlying vulnerability" was present in all versions of the browser."

"The message needs to get out that this malicious code can be planted on any web site, so simple careful browsing isn't enough."

Snoopy: Yes, you are.

alanback:but they make yummy cocktails

Czuch:Seems especially harsh, since prawns can't live out of water

Czuch: It's like a religion. You are supposed to obey, not to understand.
Seriously - I want to make some changes in January, regarding this one and some other pawn restrictions.

I dont see any harm letting pawns finish ponds that they have started before becoming pawns? It doesnt happen that way with tournaments, does it?

I think you can get kicked out of tournaments that have not yet started, and the same could be done with ponds, but again, I dont understand the reason to not let pawns finish their started ponds?

Nirvana: hmmm i wondered what you meant earlier by your post, now i see

Is the 'All Games' option going to come back sometime ?

EDIT

I just tried to create a Random Elimination Tournament, but it just went to a blank screen with url - http://brainking.com/en/DoTournament


I will try another way

EDIT 2

Tried it a couple of different ways using Random, it will not let you

can't we set tournaments using the 'all games' option any more?

Snoopy: Haven't heard anything differant.

coan.net: its already in bug tracker a few times

rod03801: Since it stops showing the fellowship right before the list of games are shown, even if the fellowship does not have the new game - I would guess a small bug that has to do with the new game added to the site.......

rod03801:Both of these Sarah & Angie Sinking Sensation and Knights Of The Round Table also have the same problem.

I also have a problem creating tournaments in that I go through all the settings etc, click on 'create' and a blank page comes up. Incidentally when choosing which game why can't we select All Games like we used to be able to?

Nirvana: I take that back. I just tried the link in your post, and I still see the problem. Odd. The ones I checked last night were all like that, and when I checked THOSE just now, they were back to normal.

It seems to have been all fellowships, but I believe it is fixed now. Try again. (It is back to normal for me, anyways)

Jason: I have the same problem with the ludo fellowship. I rebooted twice but it didn't help at all.

BadBoy7: yes lots are like that for me , just the list of members .......no boards listed and no teams ect .

Bernice: i have rebooted and refreshed and it is still that way...something is messed up somewheres cause its only certain f/s's and as u said all other game sites etc are just fine

BadBoy7: I had that problem yesterday...i just closed down and re-entered BK...all other game sites were OK.

could you check to see what the problem is ..in certain fellowships i am in...I can only get into the main page..but there is no place on the right side where it usually says discussion boards to click on to get into see the posts or to make any posts..it is all gray blank....the ones are JUST FUN & GAMES & BadBoys Game Palace & NO HOLES BARRED & Sarah & Angie Sinking Sensation fellowships...it is just all gray and no place to click...ty

MadMonkey: I've accidentally commented out one line in the code. Try it now.

Filip (had to be me didnt it lol)

Could you look at THIS game.

I have to make one of 2 moves (both forced), but when i try to move d10-d8...etc etc.. is all that happens is d10 vanishes and i get d10-a1-a1-a1 in game notation

Please advice

Czuch: yeahhhhhhhh,.....you WIN ---------> Your turn lol
