Czuch Chuckers: oh i agree it souldnt kick in if they are here,i cant imagine being here and not playing?..LOL
i go mad at home if i cant get here at least........most of the day!..heheee!

Niki: Ohhhh thanks! That is hardly $13,000 dollars now is it! Actually it is less than $45 dollars donation per person. I wonder who has given the most money to Brainking for memberships? I am sure there must be many more people who deserve "endless gratitude" if all it takes is a $45 dollar donation?

Dont get me wrong.... it is far more than I will likely ever give, but what about all the other people who have given their hard earned money in donation to Brainking and never recieved any recognition in the server news for 'endless gratitude'? I may be wrong (again) but it seems like there are probably many people who deserve such an honor wo have pledged far more money to Brainking?

for info.. 13000CZK is approx $575 or £300

Now I see it says $13,000 not $15,000 and it is "membership value" whatever that means... It still sounds like you got $13,000 though... maybe you will clairify this for me/us?

Fencer: Whoops! My bad! I thought the server news said that $15,000 had been given to Brainking in exchange for a membership! That would certainly help buy that new server..... I guess I just misread the news or something, sorry :)

What are you talking about?

WOW! $15,000! Thats a lot of cash!

Sounds like that new server should not be a problem to obtain now! Woooo Whoooo!

Tulip: I dont think anybody disagrees with autovacation to kick in when we are not online here. But Stevies point is ( and many agree) that if you are online here autovacation option should not be kicked in for you. Now if you should have a day set as a vacation day and happen to still get online, then your vacation day should still be used if needed.

I think that normal games should maybe be allowed to take advantage of this rule, but a tournament?? Planned hoildays...YES but not technical issues, or things like that? You would not get conditions like that in a real tournament?

But what the heck, its an added feature now LOL

i play on an NTL box through my tv,its well known as a lousy server.
last year i timed out in 24 games as i couldnt get on-line for over 3 days.
i now have auto vacation set in case it happens again.
NTL was off for nearly a week last month and i was glad of the auto feature as it saved my games

Thats a good point mate

Aragon:some players will be on site but not move a game, hence auto vacation kicks in and delays a game. i feel if a player is on site and times out..it should be just that, a time out

I guess a better use of the feature would be that if you had set some vacation days, but were late back it should kick in??

That way if you know you are going away then you set holidays, and if your are delayed for whatever reason it kicks in upto maybe another 7 or so.

But I guess I can see its easy for someone just to disappear for 30 days LOL

How so mate?

Aragon: I dont..it gets abused too much

Infact it didnt end the game but added 1 day as auto-vacation, I like that feature :)

The timeout script is delayed by 5 mins, in order to to improve the overall performance.

Ahhh thanks, it went to -5 then ended the game I think :)

Thank you both

Is it not like tourneys where it can go up to an hour?

Aragon, do you know about auto-vacation?
Also, the system updates every hour (or so) so if that game will time out, it will happen in the next hour.
Unless they have auto vacation on.

Aragon: It should not exceed -5 mins.

Has the time out rule on games changed?? I have a game at time to move = -4mins and counting??

Not that im complaining, I dont like to win games by time out! Just curious

Bernice, you are fully aware of why I had to put you on enemies. I'll remove you now, to receive questions only. For the record, you're the only person on my enemies list.

baddessi: hahahaha thanks Hun. So i know now that I cant trust you and Eriisa HAHAHAHAHA.....
anymore offers????

Maybe Fencer could give her another PM box so the ones she has on ENEMIES can at least take part in the fun side of BK......HMMMMM just a thought!!!

BerniceC: ok, the offer stands if you decide you want to do that. I won't abuse your trust. And at least you can be sure they will get to harley if you send them to me and you can be sure I won't tell Eriisa what you asked!

baddessi: ROFL...hehehe....I already thought of sending them to Eriisa, and getting her to send them on my behalf....Thanks for the offer tho....I will wait and see what happens ROFLMBO

BerniceC: well if it will help, you can send them to me, and I'll send them to harley : )
I won't peek

baddessi: I cant...LOLOLOL....she has me on enemies......ROFLMBO

***EDIT*** I guess she should have said that the asking of questions applied only to those not on her enemies list LOL.

BerniceC: send them in a PM to harley : )
She collects all the questions, sends them to Eriisa to answer and then posts the completed interview.
I'm working on my list too!

Can someone tell me please how I can ask a question of Eriisa? in her upcoming interview?..thanks

Red next after me? ha ha ha ha hee hee hee hee. How do you spell relief? R E V E N G E !!!! *making list ready for the sacked one*

Fencer : Next one , will be meee meee meee :D

red dragon: Good to know that, you'll be the next one.

harley: Oh yes! This is going to be fun! I almost feel sorry for her.

Interview with.........

ERIISA!!!!!!!!!

You should know how it works by now!
Send me any question you'd like to have included in Eriisa's interview. State if its ok to put your name with your question. Send as many or as few as you like, and any question you like! Easy as that!

Czuch Chuckers: It's my way to say "fix in progress".

Fencer: I guess that is your way of saying something weird is going on? Take your time, only curious :)

Easy, guys.

To skinny dip or not to skinny dip 3 -2 hours 50 mins

i guess the script isnt running

Is something weird going on? A pond game was due to be ready for a new turn 1 hour and 40 minutes ago, and for some reason wont go into the games waiting to be played ?

volant: Thanks... I was not to sure...

Czuch Chuckers:
120 x 75 pixels jpg fellowship flag

Czuch Chuckers: I am not to sure... but when you send it ask if it is Ok how you would like... Most pics that are on fellowship pages are close in size to yours... if that is the range that you want it...

Daniel Snyder: Thanks. Does the size matter?

Czuch Chuckers: Send it to Info@brainking.com...

Will someone help me to get this picture into my fellowship please?
