Board for everybody who is interested in BrainKing itself, its structure, features and future.
If you experience connection or speed problems with BrainKing, please visit Host Tracker and check "BrainKing.com" accessibility from various sites around the world. It may answer whether an issue is caused by BrainKing itself or your local network (or ISP provider).
Snoopy: Does it show the (join) which does not work? If so, what does it say when you click join? (And if it just isn't doing anything, possible try to clear the browser cache and try again.)
MadMonkey: For about 2 hours this morning, I couldn't access the site, using the regular brainking.com address. However, brainking.cz worked without any sign of trouble.
MadMonkey: Hey, take it easy man! It's just games, nothing serious, huh?
Furthermore, there was no downtime of the site itself and I saw about 100 online users all the time (today). Unfortunately we cannot be responsible for a DNS servers malfunction which caused a temporary non-existence of brainking.com domain in several parts of world. However, it was resolved in 3 or 4 hours, so it was really not a big issue.
Anyway, in case it happens again (which should not), try to use 81.91.83.6 instead of brainking.com. IP address should always work.
MadMonkey: I couldn't the site for a short time either. But I don't feel sorry for timed out games; don't let your clock run down that much while you've used all your vacation days.
I also couldn’t access this site for an hour or two this morning. Perhaps it only affected certain locations? The 3 of us reporting this are all from England.
MadMonkey: i had the same problem this morning no idea for how long but when i got in i thought has noone else had mentioned it must of been a fault at my end
I could not get on here today as i kept getting site not available (for just over an hour) !!
Once it got to 9.45 i had to go to a funeral, now i get back rom the funeral and there is no sign of anything being wrong, yet of course i have timed out on lots of games.
I can not beleive i have been the only one with problems.....all oother sites were fine, including brainking.info etc...
I have noticed that when I go to my profile and look at finished games it no longer shows the last ten games, even though the heading is there. Anybody know anything about this?
Pedro Martínez: yea, I see that now, but when I asked it was during a 24 hour bonus period. Mostly I just got confused when the clock was past the time that the bonus was supposed to end and the bonus light was still on. I think it has like a minute lag time.
nodnarbo: You can easily tell yourself. The current time should be within the interval shown when you hover the mouse pointer over the light bulb. If that is the case, the time is displayed in your time zone, and if not, it's the BK time (unless you're in the same time zone as Prague, of course). :)
When you look at a profile and goto finished games, it used to show you the last 10 games finished, in fact it still says it does.....why now does it not display anything
One of the achievment awards is a black rook (if you gain all the bonus colour codes). I was just wondering if a black rook 'achieves' this, do they get to donate their black rook to another user?
I used to pay by PayPal all the time. It was fast and easy. So, to test this Alert Pay, I set up an account (took less than ten minutes, picked a pawn from the registry, and sponsored him to see how quickly the transaction would take. It took about 30 seconds. I just checked and he's a bishop. so....IMO, Alert Pay is just as easy as PayPal. Maybe easier. It doesn't work as easily with bank transfer of funds (due to transfer fees) but they take credit cards, money orders (no fee) and checks (no fee). Looks like a good alternative to Paypal.
Fencer: Sorry, I don't see that option, but that's the same as I mean But I see just 3 options But I don't want to be involved, I paid my membership and own a creditcard, no problems at all
Fencer: Well, what I mean is that people can book money straight to your bankaccount. As far as I can see it's now only possible by using another company, and often you pay (extra) money for that, but not always. I see 3 ways to pay money: 1. Wire transfer - only possible for people living in the Czech Republic. 2. MoneyBookers 3. Alertpay-account or creditcard
Now you can add a 4th way of payment: straight from my bank to your bankaccount and doing by myself. You can do it online and totally free in the EU. The only extra thing is that people have to know the IBAN code and SWIFT code of your bank, but you can add that in the description how to pay.
In this way you use no companies that can freeze your account, people must add their nickname, but they have to do that now too. Maybe you want a separate bankaccount for this payments, that's why I said to open an extra bankaccount, but that's up to you ofcourse and probably not necessary if you have already several as you say.
Fencer: well.....I purchase off the internet products/"stuff" at least once a week....each and every one is paid for using paypal...never a problem....as I said you are the only one I've heard of...
Bernice: How many merchants with no PayPal problems you actually know? Of course, since their policy is to attracts as many customers as possible, people who only pay usually don't have any issues.
