Fencer: Since tournaments setup using the Fischer's clock time does not use vacation or weekend days, can we get a red "dot" next to those PLAYERS IN FELLOWSHIPS THAT ARE ON LINE?times in the tournament list also - as a "reminder" to us that they do not include weekends or vacations.  7.

http://brainking.com/en/PaidMembership?p=1 It is a little out of date (Like paid members can play in Ponds), but it is mostly up to date. 7. July 2005, 17:44:21 Subject: Re: Adding Pictures chorkie: You need to be a paid members to do this. 7. July 2005, 17:40:16 Subject: Adding Pictures I'm rather new here. How do you add your picture next to your name? Thanks. 7. July 2005, 06:58:04 Subject: Re: Czuch Chuckers: That is what we are talking about.
The "Total game time". The example is 3/1/10 means: 3 days total game time for a person. 1 day added for each move 10 days is the MAX amount of time you can have. So if it was 3/0/10 That would mean you would get no extra time, a person would have 3 days total to play the game (Meaning if both players use all their time, 6 days max until game is over) (Plus the /10 part would not matter since no time is added) And there is no vacations or weekends used in these types of games. 7. July 2005, 03:00:20 Sounds right.... but there is also an new one for total game time, so I am guesing that if you want to play a game in one day for example you can now do it, or in one week or something. The advantage being if you want to p[lay a fast game but dont want to ghet trapped by a one day move game, just in case something would happen.. 7. July 2005, 02:34:33  Or whatever the bonus is. So basically, if you are concerned about time outs, you should look at what the "bonus" time is, as that will be the minimum amount of time you will ever have between moves ... ???? 7. July 2005, 02:33:10 So, if you are a slow mover, you would potentially be down to 1 day per move all the time. Do I have that correct? 7. July 2005, 02:20:47 Subject: Re: rod03801: Yes I think you have it.
For example: 3 days moves 1 day bonus 10 days total. Your clock starts at 3 days. If it takes you 2 days to make a move, you clock is down to 1 (PLUS the bonus of 1 day) which will then leave you with 2 days for your next move. But lets say you have the 3 days, but you move in 1 hour - leaving you with 2 days, 23 hours (PLUS the bonus of 1 day) which will then leave you with 3 days, 24 hours. And since vacations & weekends are not used - the faster you play, the more time you can "bank" up if that tournament includes bonus time. I think I explained it correctly. 7. July 2005, 02:16:09 So, if I moved quickly all the time in this tournament, I could potentially have a 10 day time limit? (Getting the 1 day bonus each move) Am I interpreting that part correctly?
I'm not quite understanding how it helps play faster games.. I guess I need to see it in action to get it.. Unless someone can make me understand better? :-) 7. July 2005, 02:06:05 Subject: Re: Bonus? BIG BAD WOLF: WOW!!! That is great love the idea! nother job well done Fencer! This should really help those that want to play faster games! 7. July 2005, 01:01:31 Subject: Re: Bonus? Skyking: Fencer has setup a tournament using this new type of time control:
http://brainking.com/en/Tournaments?trg=9684&trnst=0 People should sign up and help him test it! :-) 7. July 2005, 00:43:44 Subject: Re: Bonus?  Skyking: Here. It's the link that you get on que question mark for the Time Control, a bit above on that page ;) 7. July 2005, 00:30:08 Subject: Bonus? When I just posted more games to play me I saw this in the setup. What is it?. Is it explained anywhere on the site so I can go read it? 6. July 2005, 22:02:00 I don't know if pawns can see it, but I have a graph next to all my BKR's that show the highest and lowest. 6. July 2005, 22:01:52 Subject: Re: BKR wellywales: Paid members have access to a chart which shows our past BKR on any game (including the highest BKR in a game)
I don't believe this option is available to pawns. 6. July 2005, 21:53:23 Subject: BKR Is there a way of finding your own highest BKR achieved in individual games? 6. July 2005, 14:31:27 Subject: Re: Fencer: Ok thanks.. mabe it will be fixed? As it can be awkward when you say good luck and thank you to someone but they dont see it and think you are a jerk for saying nothing.... 6.

Someone said it happens when you are white (not skin color) and you recieve the invite that way? 6. July 2005, 13:48:18 Subject: Re: Is this a bug? Czuch Chuckers: Can you give me the game ID? 6. July 2005, 13:46:24 Subject: Is this a bug? When I recieve an invite to backgammon, it gives me the option to write a message, but then when I do accept and write a "thank you" I get the gane back to my turn saying that I have lost the initial dice roll and then I submit this one, but my opponent will not see my originol thank you and good luck, nor is it archived. Does this make sense? 5. July 2005, 00:31:43 Subject: Re: reza: It's because of site holiday's are still set for holidays. Fencer actually meant to remove them, but forgot - so the site holiday days for a few days are still set.
Fencer said that for now on, the only site holiday may be around Christmas and the rest will be removed. 4. July 2005, 23:43:34  It could be two reasons, reza. Its American Independance day, so the site has a holiday - and you have automatic vacation set. I'm not sure how that looks when its used because I haven't run out of time on any games to see, but that could be the cause.
If you want to change this, its in your settings. Just untick 'automatic vacation'. 4. July 2005, 23:37:13 Does anyone know why my games don't run out of time? Some are minus 9 hours in time! 4.

July 2005, 15:04:40) Czuch Chuckers: i have one that's on my friends list and has me blocked too. i can see when he's online, but not what he's doing! 4. July 2005, 14:58:08 Subject: Re:  Czuch Chuckers: It is all in the timing.  4. July 2005, 14:54:04 I know it was recently talked about somewhere...
Blocked users The player from this list cannot invite you to a game, see you on Who is online page, send you a message, add you to their Friends list. But, I do have people on my friends list who have me on their enemies list as well. Maybe if you put them on your friends list before they put you on their enemies list it still works? Or this is jus not accurate information? 4. July 2005, 10:26:02 Subject: Re: vacation Czuch Chuckers: *nod* i often set the mid part of my holiday with fixed vacation days .. but leave a few days at the start for my automagic vacation days as it might be possible my opponent hasnt moved before that and i wont be needing the vacation day at all (of course this might leave me with only 1 day for my games once i get back)
another advantage of using automagic vacation days is that your opponents (in pond games) cant see you will be away .. fixed vacation days are shown on your profile, so other people in your pond can view them and know you will autobid the next round :) 2. July 2005, 13:07:53 Subject: Re: vacation Hrqls: That is good info.. I was under the impression that auto vacation and regular vacation were the same, and I think many others do as well (including many who give faulty advice to someone who is setting vacation days) It is good to know that it is more efficient use of vacation days to set them when you know they will be needed, and leave auto vacation for emergencies only! 2.

what qualities does she look for in man? why did the chicken cross the road? 1. July 2005, 17:22:27 :) mine have. It's likely a site problem and no doubt Fencer is on it.

See if that works best for you ;) 1. July 2005, 05:47:32 Subject: "move and go to..." I use the "move and go to next player on line" option, but it seems that the same player always returns first on the list even though other players are on line too. Is there a way to play with everyone in turn who's on line? << < 413 414 415 416 417 418 419 420 421 422 > >> |
