hexkid:

Well now that we all know what it is, can my question be answered please?  LOL

Mystery Man: That's how it worked before, right?

Congrats, all well & good. I just wish it wasn't added in the middle of my game. ALTHOUGH, this does bring up a good thought;
Fencer, what do you think about the idea of adding "Dark" variants of Jungle and Espionage games? (the choice of NOT showing the Captured Pieces) I prefer a little mystery in the games, know what I mean? :)
Thanx friend.......

hexkid: Thank you for the pictures. It appears that I have the Java scripting turned on as Reza's post directed me to the link. Would the Computer Discusion board be the place to ask you about the imagine hosting?

Walter Montego: The RTE is a mechanism to type with the mouse :)

You need JavaScript enabled to view the link that opens it up.

I made three screenshots, just for you ...
a) No JavaScript
b) JavaScript on (update with some text in it)
c) The RTE ready for editing (update with with text in it)

King Reza: That's slick. Now I know how some people have been changing the font, color, and size in their posts.
Thanks.

Walter Montego:Check the blue link on top of the box you type your messages in.

Baked Alaskan: What's Rich Text Editor?

Ataxx on Wikipedia

I've only ever played it against my mobile phone :))

Pente have total 6 variations and no separate category

King Reza:

Rich Text Editor  

King Reza: rich text editor

King Reza: hmmmm Right To Execute

Baked Alaskan:What's RTE?

could players who have not visited the site for, say, three months, be removed from Stairs leagues?

I would like to use the RTE just for certain members.
Is this possible?

King Reza: You can have that feature if you use hexkids grease monkey script.

user scripting fellowship

However that would be nice if implemented directly on bk.

King Reza: great idea

King Reza: That sounds like a really good idea.

joshi tm:Well, actually I think these options are getting inconvinient all of them being there at the same time.  If I want to choose one, I have to look through a long list and find it.  That's while many of those options are not used by me.  There are only a few that I use.  So I think it'd be nice if we could choose which ones to appear on our list.  Then Fencer could add as many as he wanted, an dwe could choose those we need.

How about an option; Move and go to the next game with the same tournament name?

El Cid: I don't know if this is what was meant, but a cool feature would be to be able to "drag and drop" the boats onto the board! That would really help out big time! :)

pauloaguia:

On the main Profile page, users can write a text about themselves. Some users have a very looong text in there, and you have to scroll all the way down the page to find the Friends/Enemies links and the invite to a game option.
Why not push these actions to the top of that text, so that all the options are easilly accessible?

MadMonkey: Just replying to myself.
I requested a 'Move and goto next TEAM Tournament' option in the Drop list (dont shout i know its a good idea).
I was just wondering why the 'Move and goto next game of this Tournament' do what it says it should do??
It seems it does not count Team Tourny's as actual Tournaments, most odd...

Marfitalu:In other words, he means that there will be a button on every user's profile by pressing which people can ask him/her to be interviewed.  And, I have access to a chart sort of thing which says how many players, and how many times each, hav ebeen asked to be interviewed.  Each month, I'll choose the most wanted person.  I think it's a nice feature, but I'm not sure if it's easy to make.

Mr. Shumway: I think he means not having to re-select the boat, on the right of the game board

Amandakmg365: Do you mean the following: if you just placed the boats randomly by choosing the "random placement of remaining pieces" option and don't like the setup, that you can generate another random position with one (new) button instead of clearing the board and randomizing it afterwards.

Amandakmg365: I don't understand the question either then.

If you are just looking to remove 1 piece that you don't like the placement of, then just click on that 1 piece.

If you don't like ANY of the layout of ALL of the pices, then like Mr. Shumway said - choose the "clear this position" option below the board to clear the board where you can then start over.

Mr. Shumway:


Hello: What I was saying was that if we don't like the boat placement then to be able to use one click to remove and place again.

Amandakmg365: Just click on the boat itself. If you want to remove all placed boats, select the option "Clear this position" under the board.

Hello: This is for the players when they have to place their boats. Would it be possible to have a place to click on that lets us remove the boats and place them again? Thank you.

El Cid: Read this.

El Cid: correct, usefull feature

Vikings: In games, you can also choose which pond you want. And the reason why I made that request is that I didn't remember anything like that, but it looks like it has been done

King Reza: it's a drop down box like in regular games, there's one for ponds and for regular games now

Vikings:Is it any different?

King Reza: you can choose which specific game you want to go to

El Cid:I think we already do, but I'm not sure.

Since there is the possibility of "go to the next pond", on a game, could we have the possibility of "go to the next game" on ponds

mctrivia: You have given me the answer!!
Let the 'doubling' affect just the Action Points.
If the player refuses the double, then the winner just collects 5 points.
If the player accepts the double and then loses, 10 points is DEDUCTED from his Action Points.
If the doubler loses, then 10 points is deducted from his Action Points total.
Perfect (the points may/will be different for pawns but the principle is the same).
Of course, some players may reckon that they will get more move points by playing on than refusing the double; perhaps the rules could NOT count any moves after a double.

Fencer, could we have another option in our Move and goto drop list.
Move and goto next game in TEAM Tournament.
Oh, and while you are there may has well have.....
Move and goto next GAME in Fellowship challenge match.

Oh i won a game of Lines in Action by the way LOL

El Cid: The doubling the points lost is stuped the purpose of the points is to show if they can play not if they are good at realising when they are beet. As for a claim victory option in games like Spider Line 4 I always say good game to my oponent when I have them so they can't possibly win. If it is someone I play a lot of games I will then give them a list of every posible move I and they can make showing they have losts but I do that for those I am trying to teach only.

What if someone decided to claim victory after the first move, like it happens sometimes with doubling-cube (I hope it's well written)

gambler104: No joke; it works in Back/Nackgammons.

gambler104: I think that was a joke.

tonyh: I don't think the claim victory is a good idea (or at least losing double rating points.) This would work in totally lost endgames, but what if it was a position where a player was losing but barely behind. Then this option of losing double rating points simply would not work.

M132T003C:But when I was a pawn, it did matter to me!  Peopel have different opinions about that!  

joshi tm: Ok, a pawn will not enjoy those players

Why? It doesn't matter to me at all, I can't see why it would matter to anyone.

joshi tm: This is a little silly, you should only resign if it's mathematically impossible to win, not just a miniscule chance.

And I AM a rook and absolutely hate games dragging on. I'm not interested in playing lots of games at once.
