You'll notice lots of folks dont use their real pics here, not just him... He isnt saying he is clinton, neither is BBW saying he is a pumpkin!

Paying members can add a picture to their profile, which appears when they post. My question is, why does IMupChucKing put a picture of former President Bill Clinton, when he is not Bill Clinton?

And is that ethical?

It wouldn't bother me at all if the ratings are completely re-calculated. Mine are going up & (mostly) down faster than a roller coaster. LOL

whatever the problem is...the bkr are going to be completely re-calculated from scratch

Sorry, I guess I forgot about all that. Is that a fairly new problem or has the system been faulty since the begining? I remember having problems a long time ago, and was told that it was all being correctly tabulated...

scroll down a few hundred posts,upchuck....this question has been answered at least 20 times.I know you follow this board...I thought your post was funny,and deserved a funny answer.

Fencer has said plenty of times there are things wrong with the rating system. Maybe if you started listening to what people say, youll will realise it was not necesary for you to ask the question in the first place

Its not polite to answer a question with another question Wild Man....

I want those two irrelevant posts removed please.

LMAO

they didnt have a picture of Clinton?

I lost a game to someone rated around 2300+, I was under 1900, and I lost 28 ratings points.....

Then I beat someone who was over 1900 points, and they lost less than 28 points.

How does it work when I lose more points loseing to a much higher rated player, than someone else does loseing to a lower rated player?

Cindy: Great :-)
Chessmaster1000: Yes, it's exactly as Kevin and Jason say.

i can read tooo.

he said he will be renewing ... he was just curious what would happen if he didnt renew .

Yes, if a pawn was recently a rook (or knight) they could be playing in many tournaments and have many games. But will not be able to start any new games until your total is below 20 (is that still what it is?) and no new tournaments until they are all done.

you continue in all your games but , you cant sign up for anymore .

"Warning! Your Brain Rook membership level will expire on 27. October 2004. You have 13 days left to renew your membership."

I will renew my membership anyway, but since i'm too curious what if i don't renew it or i renew it after 27 October? I'm playing at more than one tournaments (the limit a Pawn must have is one tournament) so A)what would happen with my tournaments? Also B)what if i had more than 20 games(the limit a Pawn must have). What would happen in these 20+ games?

lmfao!!!..i did say thanks all Stevie ;o)..wanna gammon game to get me rating back up?

Woooooo Hooooooo!!!! I got a package in the mail today.
Thanks Lenka...what a wonderful job! It matches the t-shirt beautifully! Filip...thanks for everything. I'll send you the piccys this weekend. I'll have to borrow the digital camera from work. :-)

and it only took 5 of us to help LMAO

Whhhhhooooeeee!!..i did it!!..lost 80 points off me rating but the dam game is gone1!...GREAT!

LOL..thanks all of you.ill go see if i can do it when its not my turn!..whoooooeee!..wish me lick yer i go!.zooooooom!

So keep resigning ... LOL

How many wins game is it? If it's a 5 win game, for instance, you have to loose 5 games, before it's finally over...

tulip . go down to where its your opponants turn and you can still resign the game (even though its not your turn)

Tulip: resign each game - whether its your turn or not.

its a multiwin game....ive resigned already!!!..but its still going and not my turn now!...gggrrrr!!..

I just said you can resign without waiting Tulip LOL as Pauloaguia says, look towards the bottom by offer draw etc

The resign link is avalibale at the bottom of the board, wether its your turn or not...
Or is it that pawns have some feature that other members dont? :)

thanks Stevie..;o)..i wish i could just resign it but ill still have to wait for her to play each time?...;o(

It is such a way now that you can still resign even when the other players move. so you need to resign each of the games until the total games are all gone

how do i get out of one??..i accepted from a friend (?) and if im lucky one move a week is made?..she won the 1st,ive resigned the 2nd but its my go and says if i move..or resign i spose .....aaaawww???..i thought if i resigned the 2nd game she'd win??...but its still there and now her turn again!!..

which means i have to wait another week or so for her to play?..can i get out of this game?
i dont care losing i just want the game gone..;o(

I know Dodger did it with a full account but can we donate portions of our own account to upgrade the member status of others?

MrLoupcity, No, there isn't a limit on how many boards you can have on your "favorites" list. Mine is quite long! :-D

UE
I don't think you're a bad guy. I've sent a PM to your mailbox explaining the reasons that I felt that I needed to delete your post earlier today.

You or anyone else are always welcome to PM me, if you don't understand my feelings or why I might do something. I don't always expect that you will agree with me or what I do, and that's ok. I am willing to listen and try to be fair to everyone.

This is a public board on a family site; and we all need to try and remember that.

Again, sorry for the deleted post and I apologize if you feel it made you look like a "bad guy". That was not my intent.

how many boards u have on ur favourite list?

That's ok not a floosie,It was'nt meant to harm anyone, i just seen it was brought up.But you the big boss it's in my mail box for protection anyway becuase now i look like a bad guy.Which all i did was speak the truth.correct.

Sorry UE. Post deleted. We are NOT going to start any posts here that bring up old news or have the potential to cause problems or discord.

OK guys....enough!

More than just them. Besides they haven't left the site.

ok....lets all go to the Cave and discuss this further! ;-P

I second that! :o)

I have some better advice - stop goading each other, but if you really must, do it elsewhere! (Maybe your own fellowships would be agood place!) :oD

Some are so obvious there are fingerprints all over them. And they are all screened by some lonely people to see if lost love has somehow reappeared. Leads to paranoia and illusions and the best advice is to get other obsessions.

There are over 700 registered members who have not been here since 2002..

What about cya peeps?

Bad guesswork. :)

its Stormy down south...but a Sunnyday up north!

Tulip, if you have 'column' layout, it will be at the right hand side of your screen, next to the board (of the game you want to see the previous moves in).

If you are on 'row' layout, it will be underneath the game board.

The notation could be below the game depending on your page set-up.
