Pedro Martínez: But did you know
That while displaying a game, right clicking on the third character in the game's name (for example, the 'e' in 'chess') will pop up a little screen displaying the best move for the position?

Well done Fencer!
Unfortunately, this feature is only valid today.

SL-Mark: Great discovery!
It had actually been introduced before you logged in here for the first time.

Just discovered something quite neat.
The 'Main page' link just under games, has the number of games where it is your move in brackets in red. If you place your mouse cursor over this, it brings up a list of these games and you can select the game from this list!
Saves you from having to always scroll down the page.

Bernice:Can get in OK, but it's v-e-r-y  s-l-o-w from England at the moment.  There's lots of waiting for white screens to change into something more useful!  But the site has been really good for me for ages now, so I guess I was due a blip in performance.

Bernice:Probably nobody who can read your question.

Bernice: No.

anybody else having trouble getting into BK?

thanks guys

yourturn: You can start New Games (second link, top left) and wait for someone to accept the invitation.
Or you can look for open invitations at the Waiting Games area (third link).

yourturn: I have sent you an invite

Hi, I am a new member and I'm confused. I only want to play reversi - nothing else, but I must be being thick, because I can't seem to get a single game. How do I start? Help please!

internet gremlins

Well, i do not know, back to normal mode, and smiley pop-up is back.........how weird is that

Fencer: Well i am in Safe Mode and makes no difference, still no smiley pop-up

Fencer: I will give it a try though i have not changed any add-ons recently. Let see......

MadMonkey: Have you tried to run it in safe mode? Some of your addons might do funny things with the browser itself.

MadMonkey: I'm using Firefox as well, and it works.

rod03801: hmmm working fine with Chrome & Safari so cant be my brainking settings............so what has happened to Firefox ?

best get the hammer out and mend it

MadMonkey: Working fine for me

Anyone else have a problem with the smiley window ?

I click, but no pop-up , nothing has been changed that i know of.....most odd

I'm tired of losing to the same people  LOL
I'm here to recruit more brainking users

Snoopy: I was probably editing my post as you were reading it... No, I use Firefox.. So, my guess would be something with copy/paste in Chrome? I don't know about the smiley problem from before. I do remember reading about it here, before, though.

Snoopy: I can't imagine that would have anything to do with Brainking.

I just tried it in The Zoo, and it worked fine.

(I don't use Chrome, I use Firefox)

anyone have problems when they go to use a smilie from a fellowship
it allow you to copy the code but wont allow you to paste it onto the board

i only ask cause i was wondering if it was fault at my end r part of the smilie problem that chrome had before

nodnarbo: Yes. Europe has changes in the last weekend of March for quite a number of years. It didn't follow the recent USA fad to change to "summer time" while it's still winter.

The US changed time an hour forward this past weekend out of daylight savings, does Europe do the same thing sometime soon?

Bernice: Some of my games won't load. I may go through withdrawl!

Artful Dodger: I couldnt get mine to load about 1/2 hour ago but it is alright now :)

Czuch: Well, it seems to be working better now. Must be the nasty weather.

Artful Dodger: Its our governments secret plan to make us so upset with the internet that we stop using computers and wont be able to research their cover up of 9/11

Pedro Martínez: That does it, I'm moving overseas

Artful Dodger: No problems here.

me too

Czuch:I haven't had my coffee yet and I'm always slow to load when that happens :)

Me too (last hour)

Artful Dodger: Me too....

OK, I'm having all kinds of problems today.  In fact, I don't think I've ever had problems like this.  Slow loading etc.  Is it me?  :)  

Czuch: That will be self-fixed on Monday.

Fencer, there are many people absent from the list of top money winners in poker right now, including yourself?

new_user: zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Czuch: Right, that could be it. I think that I will add a new entry to FAQ page.

Czuch: thank you. I'll relay that info for him.

pauloaguia: Well, I have sometime found that some people do not understand how the payouts of a hand are worked in no limit tables, especially after an all in.


I have seen people think they have lost because it said someone else with a lessor hand had won more money than they did... but the reality is that they had simply bet a lot less than this other person, and even though the other person lost, they still appeared to have won more than the person who did win, but the reality is they had just won a lot of their won money back..... it is not possible to win more than you start a hand with, times the number of people who call.


In simple terms... if you have $5 and I have $100, and we both go all in and you win, it will show you to have won $10 and me to have won $95, thats like ley what happened...

pauloaguia: Such table does not exist. An URL would be better.

Czuch: Yes, he said the table was no limit 500, 5/10 and it happened sometime between 21:00 and 21:30 (22:00 - 22:30, server time)

pauloaguia: was it at a no limit table?

pauloaguia: I see. Yes, the current version is supposed to be free from most bugs. But, of course, it is possible to find new bugs even after the official release. However, I am sure that the algorithm to determine the winner is correct and bug free.

Fencer: I forwarded your request, but I wasn't asking for a fix (yet).
I was trying to determine if the version currently available is supposed to be free from most of those bugs or if that version will only be made online next week and it's possible to find some bugs now that are already corrected for that version...

And I only posted it on a public board because I'm sure other people are interested in the answer to this question too...

pauloaguia: I don't see any useful details at that post, so it is really hard to investigate, but I am sure that flushes were tested many times and there is no problem with it. Perhaps JPS could add more information (table ID, round number etc.) next time, instead of loads of questions marks.

JPS posted on the portuguese board about having lost with a flush to a pair last night
BrainKing.pt (JPS, 2009-03-05 23:23:49) (I don't know the details of when exactly, you can ask him if you need any).

Since the announcement was made that all bugs were corrected and the official version will be released next week, I'm asking if those bugs should have occurred or will only be corrected next week?
