How far above the 1300 does one have to be before you lose points?

Ah, that makes sense then!

Everybody starts with 1300 [BKR] but the BKR is not shown if the user didn't finish at least 4 ratd games.

:o( Ah well, we live and learn! Thanks Kev!

Nope! I'm not sure what value is used for them in the formula, but they definately affect your rating!

Hey, I just lost a game with an un-rated player and my rating went down 50 points!! How come??! I thought un-rated players made no difference to your rating?

go to settings...and unclick the box for email notification...that should work

Yes, but I still get bombarded with emails!

The easy thing to do is - just stop visiting.!

How do I cancel membership from this site?

Okay, I'll try to use different color. No problem.

It would be easier to see the white players pieces if the background color was a different color. After awhile the white pieces kind of blend in with the background.

Kevin: Yes, that's possible. It's already on my TODO list but I was working on other things so far :-)

The Waiting Games would be useful to sort like the games in progress and the player's list. There are starting to be more waiting games in the waiting room, so finding the game you want can be rather difficult. Similarly with the ratings (completed games) on player profiles. Those would be useful to sort by rating at least, or number of games.

No big deal; I'm sure you have more important bugs to fix. It amused me though! Thx for fixing the numbers of games in players' profiles.

Well right now i looked at eddie spaghetti's profile...only had 10 games listed when he says he has a few hundred! lol. It doesn't do it with the one game all the time, but it did last night on seemingly everyone's profile i clicked on.

tonyh: I am sorry. I will fix it ASAP [the message bug].

happy thanksgiving to all players.

My previous message came out all wrong!!
Perhaps it was my use of the 'greater than' sign.
In asking for a rating window, I think that the lower rating should show 'greater than' sign, rather than a 'lesser than' sign

=, rather than =.

Kevin: Which profile shows only one uncompleted game? I need at least one example, otherwise I cannot investigate it.
About posting here, it can be a bug. I'll look at it.
Wins-Losses-Draws - yes, you are right. It will be fixed.
TODO list is very long since more requests are coming every day. That's what I expected ;-)
Ian: Okay, put the money into envelope and send them to me if you really want to use this way :-)

I noticed on my Main Page it is listed Wins - Draws - Losses, but when i click on Waiting Games it is Wins - Losses - Draws. The numbers are still correct, and it doesn't really matter...but it probably shoudl be consistent (whichever way it is)!

And also, just out of curiosity, exactly how long is your TODO list?? lol

Fencer. Its the only real option 4 me.! :)

I think it's a big perk to have 30 vacation days instead of 5! I didn't even know about it until it was mentioned here. I think it is definately worth mentioning on the membership page!! :-)

I also noticed lately that all opponent's profiles only show one uncompleted game, even if they have many in progress. Is this a bug? Thanks!

Third, i have been having difficulties lately posting to the DBs. I would type the message, click "Post" and a blank white page would come up with "Done" in the status bar. I would click back (or just go to the discussion board again) from there, and it would not be posted.

Don't you French guys celebrate Xmas?

Tony: You are right, I should advertise that :-) But I thought that the major benefit is the unlimited number of started games, Or maybe not, it's a matter of taste.

you're on - my vac isn't until july :)

Am I right in saying that a Brain Pawn gets 5 days vacation time a year, whereas a Brain Rook gets 30 days vacation?
If so, this is a major benefit of Brain Rook membership; you would do well to advertise this. Now I can make my games have a time limit of 1 day!

That's really great, thanks :-)

I would just like to say that Im really enjoying myself at this site, infact a bit too much, Im totally addicted!!!! Ive met some really lovely friendly players here. A big THANKS to my 'game buddy' Gamester who informed of Brainking :o)

I've never used them, so I don't know. Btw, why do you [Ian] want to use cash payment? Swreg.org which I use for payments supports all known credit cards, cheques and PayPal.

Westrn Union works good but isnt there a hefty fee for international orders?

Ian: Well, the problem is that the cash payment [money in an envelope] can be lost on the way. But there is also a possibility to use Western Union, isn't it?

Yes, I already know about this bug. Sorry. It will be fixed soon :-)

I noticed that also!

In "my profile" it shows 50 wins and 14 losses instead of 25 wins and 7 losses. Everything counted twice?

How risky is this method.?

hello ..i'm here to let people know who are friends of rebel4life and brokefoot that he was killed in a hit and run accident on Nov 17th ..his mom asked me to let you know that a guest book is available for people who would like to pay their respect at

WWW.SNOWSMEMORIALCHAPEL.COM

his name is WILLIAM HOWARD FAULK JR..HE HAS 2 LISTINGS

ittook me one day...i sent it in one day then the next that was due to im in usa and the sites not...

when you send money thru paypal for a memberhip how long does it take til your new membership is activated?

Hello Fencer,
I mean the bug that it is impossible to play with 2 players on the same e-mail address and use the automatic login

Hey, no prices will be changed! $18 and $28 memberships will stay the same. Don't worry about that :-)

again?...DOH!!!!!......well my winters are always warm at least....haha

sorry eddie, you are only gettin a bag of coal this year haha

im a member brain rook... i think its worth it due to this site is this good now and its only begginin..a few minor things i requested where done..button add on and problem with game which got fixed the next day...all of which other sites dont always fix or notice right away...took iyt almost a week once to renew my membership there its gonna expire soon and i wont reup over there...this site seems to be on top of everything...i was thinkin that a player named molly here could buy me that 1,000 dollar membership...what ya think molly?...but seriously..it takes time for all the programmin that is required in these sites...once this site has had more time and a few more members this could be become the best,,,and ya think if i keep talkin up this site i could get a free 1,000 dollar membership? hee hee...

I was thinking of joining till I saw that,it may be a trend and the other prices may go up accordingly.For that kind of money,I shouldn't have to log on,just pick my games and let someone else move for me..LOL

that new membership price whatare they buyin the whole brainking website? haha wow...ill stick with my 28 bucks a year...whew.,...

It is in rapid development! Since both Brain Rooks requested it recently [because they are the only ones who will be able to create teams], it's on my TODO list at the top.

Fencer, whats your plans with the teams option on the main page? For anyone interested in joining a future line4 team, take a look on the line4 board.

dot13: Yes, I'll do something like that to make it compatible with NTL.
sandie: Do you click on the button of 1) or 2) section on Define Opponent page? If you click on Search button and write nothing or something that cannot be found, it will go back to this page. I'll add some better description.
