Well Done

Well done to imsoaddicted (Lynne) on reaching 10355 moves today and still going.....poor fingers LOL

it's very interesting and i can't wait for it to be continued, i'm here since nov.2 2002, that's almost the beginning, and it's fun looking back. BK has surely come a long way. Fencer and Liquid have done a great job. ty for a great site.

Yeh tis interesting to know, that there was only 5 game, 4 of which are chess... i'm so glad i came later on or i'd have never stayed around

Great reading, what memories...........

It is how it should be now, its just a piece of coding that stops me catching up with Fencer LOL

The position (ranking) takes a little bit longer to update. It will.

imsoaddicted : We have just finished a game, but the BKR changed straight away, surely position should do the same

MadMonkey: have you just finished a game as the ratings sometime take awhile to change

I have a feeling there is something wrong with the Line of Action Ratings:

Order 	 Player 	BKR 		Counted games
30.	 Ugo 		1564	        42 (31/0/11)	 
31.	 MIHEL 		1492	        94 (43/1/50)	
32.	 MadMonkey 	1578	        37 (21/2/15)	
33.	 KARA 		1501	        59 (28/0/31)	 
34.	 fanciann 	1476	        78 (42/0/38)

I only noticed this because i am playing MIHEL in a tournament. He has a lower BKR, but is rated high than me.
WHY???

BIG BAD WOLF: 10,000 moves a day?

BIG BAD WOLF: Yeah he said as here http://brainking.com/nl/News in the News.

BIG BAD WOLF: I thought that at first but then i had a quick scan through previous months action points and he came third in july http://brainking.com/en/Statistics?p=4&yf=2006&mf=7 It's quite an achievement though and i definately respect all that clicking lol, i like you have nearly been pushed off, if not by now already gone.

BIG BAD WOLF: I'm sure his membership was due to run out in 2009 before he broke the 10k.

And according to what was said on the BK.cz board, only the first person to break it is entitled to the special prize, whatever it is...

furbster: Well I noticed that the person's membership runs out in 2009 - but I'm not sure if it was like that before, or if a special prize was a couple year membership or something.

Another question is if someone else breaks 10,000, will they get the prize also or was it only for the first?

I don't think he did say what it would be, maybe it'll be annouced at the end of this month. It sure would be cool to know what he won.

Did Fencer ever say what the special prize was for the one who did break the 10,000 moves in 1 day was since it was done a couple of days ago?

ScarletRose: No problems this end

ScarletRose: No, but i have had problems with the pages loading once the move has taken place.

Has anyone else had difficulty with their Backgammon games? Haven't had any problems with my other games.. but, BG is not moving my pieces when I chose one to move.. and it isn't rolling the dice either..

Tuesday: Just GMT.

Is there a statistics to show the quitest and busiest times on BK....it may be intresting??

Tuesday: it's nothing, just Fencer scanning brainking usage. don't worry about it, you'll get the bill in your mail later.

Tuesday: Thats your pc , running slow

pauloaguia: *LOL* Was it THAT easy to change? Hehe, thanks for the help ;)

DamnCat: On the main page click on the heading of the column you want it sorted by. If it shows up backwards, then just click it again.

nightmagic: off topics can be posted on general chat, or on the members only board

some off topic is allowed of course .. as long as originated from a real topic and doesnt go too far off topic and doesnt fill the whole board by itself ;)

OK, some weeks ago something happened with my settings for my games in my play list. I did not change anything myself, it just was that way all of a sudden. I can't change it back so I am asking what I can do, if I can do anything.

The problem I am having is that my games were first sorted after how much time is left before it times out, the one which would time out first was at the top and then the second game to time out etc. All of a sudden all my games were just about "thrown in the list" with no logic behind at all. I tried changing it back in Settings but all I get is that I can sort the games by time left but they are sorted also by game type so I still have games that are soon to time out in the middle of the list. Is there any way I can change this?

Jason: Thought i was trying to give insite to help some that are in need to understand what board does what but i see you like the eat lunch early, do you want dinner too.

nightmagic: a case of he did it she did it. who's right who's wrong, i don't care i voiced what i felt.

Jason: your dreams just might come true!!!! watch out for what you ask for, oHHH wrong board, now we need another board,lol

nightmagic: with any board a site has it comes with it's ups and downs. but to its players maybe some wont be so confussed as to what board does what, if there is an all board. i will tell you take the chance, more will read the all board....If as a comunity board. more will be on that board cause alot don't know where to put what.

Jason: true and not true. as and all brainking board on all. you have the option to read as you do all the others

nightmagic: I'm speaking of an all chat, no matter the interest but it as a board all can read as to get what is not cleariffide on any other board, to reach the 80 + members as they play there games and don't get to all specified boards in the day to get day news. AS in all other game sites do have all as in other board.

Jason: nice try but not really definned as all community chat. general is like me saying hi to those i haven't chated with or played with for a while. General

nightmagic: maybe thats what general chat is for ;)

may help solve off topic's

brainking itself is not it's self without the players,it's structure depends on it's players. features and future are also covered on other boards. I see lot's of things that could be covered on this board but are told off topic!

"Have Fun": It's especially helpful when two of you are taking turns on the computer.

Jules: Yes thats for sure:) put right settings on your sheet also and PLAY he he LOL:)

MadMonkey: Do what I've done, turn off the action points, the adverts and the big brainking pic... The sites lightning fast then

MadMonkey: LOL:) how come WW is always pickin on ya he he LOL:)

MadMonkey: Have another wee then

WellyWales: The site has been ok for me, but you can notice as more players sign on that the site gets slower, but then thats always happened although it had got worse this wee. Up until then i had hardly noticed it, in fact a couple of days last week, i was shocked as to how fast it was.

MadMonkey: Are you sure it is not your virus checker slowing your computer as it does mine??

imsoaddicted: Well its different to what it used to say, BUT i do not think you should have to put something like that in your profile.
When you play any game on a turned based game site, you follow the stipulations set within the game invite or Tournament. In other words you have 'x' ammount of time to play your move. No one should have the right to then change those stipulations UNLESS for a very legitimate reason, and if they start getting nasty about it that is worse and as you have done nothing wrong, they should be reported to one of the Administrators.
Thats my opinion, but i believe its the right one !
