tazman7474:    I was just joking!  Seems like I don't joke well in English.  It's quite OK the way it is.  I love all the smileys on BK, whether they are earing underwear, or not. 

Could we have the person standing from behind in this smiley wear shorts?  Or is it necessary for him to be like that?  

Pedro Martínez:

diogenes:This reminds me of my old requests:  Dark Knigh Relay Chess and Dark Cylinder Chess.  Dark Loop Chess should indeed be fun too.  For Fencer I think it's just a mixture of codes!

emmett:Especially when the game is between two other people, yes.  I second that. 

prettymama:    I'll keep that verb in mind: jump start!

prettymama:When you expire, then you can put your name there.  You're not a Pawn yet.

grenv:

Flummoxed:

rabbitoid:1 & 2

Fencer:Fast answer!

Scottish John:Go to your profile, on top of the page choose Edit, and change your username.  Then you'll have to wait for fencer to approve it.

I'd like games such as backgammon and its variations which depend a lot on luck to use a different formula for the calculation of their related BKRs.  I know it has been asked already, but I thought I'd remention it.

I'd like to see the number of a person's started games on their profile so that I won't have to wait for a long long long list to load so that I can see the totall number, in case the person is running more than 2,000 games.

M132T003C:Send Fencer a pm and he'll change it for you.

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

Baked Alaskan:What's RTE?

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.

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.

Vikings:Is it any different?

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

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

M132T003C:It depends.  Sometimes, I realize that the position is a totall loss for me, but I won't resign.  That's because I don't know whether my opponent knows he's winning or not.  But in a  gammon game, where it's obvious than one is losing, I see no point in keeping the game there, especially if the opponent is  apawn and may need the empty slot.

Fencer:I suggest: Move and stay here if I hit a ship, otherwise undo the move and reload the page.

grenv:Oh sorry.  My mistake.  The question meant immidiate showing of the result after a player moves.  In Ambiguous Chess the result is not shown immidiately.  I somehow understood the question incorrectly.  Thought it meant the result is shown after a player moves, no matter 'how long after!'

grenv:Well, when there are more than one piece that can move to a certain square, and you choose that square, you cannot see the result unless your opponent has made a move!

plaintiger:Dark Chess and somehow Ambiguous Chess.

alanback:

skipinnz:You're right!  But I still would like to have that feature.

plaintiger:No.  i'm asking for a feature that allows us to choose whether we want people with provisional BKRs accept our invitations or not.  Currently, BKR accepts 1860 and 1860 just the same.

Mr. Shumway:Me too.  But, yet again, I am going to ask for the feature that allows us filter those who can pick our invitations by their Provisional/Established BKR too.

$ONE$:A very good idea.  I second that.  All invitations and finished games which are private can be shown in red.

nabla: Me neither.  I really didn't mean $ONE$ was a cheater and in fact in my opinion he's  avery good player.  I haven't won him even once.

$ONE$: I never really look at the part in invitations that shows whether it's private or not.  I just won't accept an invitation if I see or notice it's private and I certainly do get mad when I am trying to see a game and see it's a private game. Take a look at this .  As you can see, all the games are private, and played with one player.  I cannot find a better word than cheating for it. 

I guess I'll have to look at the part showing whether a gam eis private or not more often.  I just want everyone to know that if some of my games are private, I haven't delibrately chosen them to be so.  They must hav ebeen invitations that have been chosen to be private by my opponents.

About the private games, I certainly don't want to impose my opinions on anyone.  I won't push that the private games be totally removed from the site, but that something, call it preventive measures, be thought of that causes people from playing games with other accounts they themselves have made.

I know that you're a really tough player and I certainly do enjoy my games with you, though I cannot win them, but I think I will reconsider my thoughts as to whether or not accept your public challenges that are private.  I know how it feels when someone wants to look at a game, but cannot see it for no good reason.

Or maybe there is a reason?  Would mind sharing it with us?  I should very much like to know why people, and you especially, play private games.  maybe you can send me a pm, since it's a public board.

I appologize for any offense my posts may have caused, truely and sincerely.

WatfordFC:Well, some games, such as battle boat variations, Crazy screen chess and Screen chess which need the players to set the starting position of the board are mostly played as private games so that a player doesn't have to change the start position so often.  But why games such as dark chess or Atomic chess should be private, I don't know!

I consider most of them to be games played by cheaters and with their own duplicate accounts.  Of course they want the games to be private so that others cannot see their games and the way they have cheated.

Walter Montego:I support removal of private games too.  I just hate it when I click on a game a player has played too eagerly see what has happened and suddenly see that message "The players do not allow you to see the game" or something like that.  Yes, Private until complete is a good option.

I ALSO HAD A REQUEST ABOUT A YEAR AGO!

I want to have the option of choosing whether or not people with provisional, not established, BKR can choose my public invitations.

It has happened a lot that a player with a BKR of 1600 picks my invitation and when our game is over he/she is surprisingly possessing  a BKR of 2000+ !

 Hrqls:

Hrqls:Greedy or Stingy?

Fencer:Now that's a bright idea

Hrqls:Now it's time for you to purchase a Black rook and the request will be put on high priority!  

imsoaddicted:I'd like to see a more complete version of this request:

I don't want any invites from anyone except the following people.

Walter Montego:When you see a public invitation, it means that your BKR has been in your opponent's desired range!  Otherwise BK doesn't show you the invitation at all.

 WatfordFC:

WatfordFC:It does affect the outcome if you're playing Maharajah Chess, or Hord Chess.
