rod03801: The biggest problem with our stair system is that you can only challenge down or even, so there is no incentive to make challenges. I know that when I get to the top of one I just sit there. also there are too many 2 game matches that end in a draw, there should always be a winner

Taken care of,
Just a reminder to all, speaking on a subject is fine, just please do so with out getting personal

your S-B score is based on the amount of wins that the people you beat have won. So in the first tournament your opponents won a combined total of 6 games where as your opponents that you beat in the second tourny won a total of 4 games combined

jadarite: that is a privilege for paying members and for a good reason

thechosen0ne: you are a rook,, you can join any tournament you want to

Iamon lyme: what is his user name, I'm showing only 4 new accounts that day, of course he could be in a different time zone and could show up on either the 24th or the 26th

thechosen0nesame way you would:

Gammonator: My next round should be easy

happyjuggler0: just for giggles, try embedding it using rich text editor

plaintiger:go to the friends page in your left column, type in their name where it says "Add a friend"

or you could go to their profile and click on "add !$@%# to your friends list"

Bernice:

Bernice: you just uploaded 2

Mousetrap:

SL-Mark: I wasn't talking about our match, it's a good see-saw match,II was just using it as an example of my longest going current match.
And yes, I was the first to sign up

rabbitoid: 459 and counting Anti Backgammon (SL-Mark vs. Vikings), it'll probably go at least 650, I like to extend the games when I am in control just to see who will resign

pedestrian: I signed up for anti-backgammon, I can make some of those games last for 400+ moves

Aganju: no, you loose nothing, whatever you purchase for example we'll use your 25% example, would extend your 6 months by one year and three months for a total of 21 months if you were to purchase a one year membership

6 (months left) + 1 year (membership purchased )+ 3 months (bonus) = 21 months

Aganju:

Mélusine: no worries, it's just that usually leads to flame wars, and it's been good here for quite a while, knock on wood

Please continue the conversation but without naming names

thank you

ketchuplover: bad Idea, much of the income comes from the advertizement reaching a large number of players, like pawns, so there would actually be an income drop even if there were to be a %25 increase inpaid membership

The Col: make moves in those games and ask your opponent to make his move as quick as possible so you can make more moves and let the time add up

Iamon lyme: there was never any post of yours to approve at that time, and by checking the date and time of your questioning the post, the problem with the board was the night before your post and already back to normal by the time you said that you posted, something else must have happened. I approved every post (some with editing) with the exception of one. Usually when a board is changed, the post slow down dramaticly and since you rarely post to that board, I assure you that I would have remembered it.

Iamon lyme: It had nothing to do with you, multiple people were making personal insulting post so everybody was put on (post must be approved) status to put a stop to it.

cd power: not really, check out the host tracker at the top of this page

thisbeme: The reason is that in order for the dice to come up as you lost the initial roll, you have to click on to that game otherwise you would time out for not rolling the dice

Bernice: look in your trash archive

Tuesday: the entire conversation was removed (left and right) because it had nothing to do with politics, you don't get to decide who can make comments nor do I. I allow all sides to post as long as their post are relevant and not personal

THIS WILL BE THE LAST POST ON THE SUBJECT, PERIOD!!!!!!

BadBoy7: mine has been blank for 3 days

tenuki has responded to the acusations brought up about him, I have moved it over to the Run Around The Pond Board for those that are interested http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=77

any further post on the subject should be made on that board

alilsassy: yes as long as it is the same account

rod03801: I agree with Rod, I will also be deleting further post (without warning or notice to anyone that has been warned in the past) on any board that is inappropriate.

Rod is correct, Fencer has said in the past that because it is a multi-player game, that collusion is not necessarily cheating, he also has said that is would be almost impossible to prove, for example, there are people defending the possibility that these examples are not cheating, I find it ironic that out of the many claims in the past of cheating, the person that tends to stand up for the accused the most is Pedro,
Mad Monkey, if a formula is being used here, there is not enough information to figure it out,

Don't get me wrong Pedro, I agree with you, I'm just stating what Fencers stand has been

Bernice: 4

Nothingness: The 1 day is not per move but for the entire game, the clock counts when it is your turn.
The 6 hours is the bonus you get for making a move.
so using your scenario, you would get 18 hours (3 x 6 hours) if you move 3 times per day, added to your total time. You would have to plan 4 moves per day to be safe.

Herlock Sholmes: "2 out of 3" would be simply a "2 win match", 4 out of 7 would be "4 win match" they are the same just not called the same as to what you are accustomed to.
As far as the 10 game match, it shouldn't be confusing, it is simply a "10 GAME match", you either win by wining more than 5 games, lose by losing more than 5 games or tie by winning 5 games, if it were the way you suggested it would have to be called a "most points in x games match"

I would check to see what days your opponents have their weekend days set to, that would explain it

Since this thread is certain to lead to a place that the Main Moderator has asked that it not go, it will be removed.

I suggest that the 2 interested parties carry on their conversation in p.m.'s if they so wish

Pioneer54: you can also report it to a global moderator which you may want to do since it is just about bed time in Fencers country

Thad: there is a setting for auto-refresh, if you keep that at 5 min or less it will appear that you are always here while you are logged in

Bluefin: If you selected a 2 game match, the second game will start after the first is finished and will automatically alternate the second game to the other color

puupia: on the left side of your page, 5th link under the profile section you will see "Friends", that will send you to the right place

"GERRY": http://brainking.info/

joshi tm: try this one http://brainking.info/

Bernice: I think that is your local time, mine says the thirteenth
