It probable wasn't you - right before you wrote that message, I had a couple of "weird" things happen (like only 1/2 the page loading) - like the server was just about ready to be "maxed out", but not yet to the "max" point.

But I'm glad it is working now! :-)

Sometimes "small" errors happen from time to time. First I would try to go back to the Main Page, and then choose the game again and see if you get the same error.

If that does not work, it would be something Fencer would have to look at.

I've had a hard month of June, you mean I can't go back and take vacations for June?????

Actually harley, when I first looked there (when getting the answer for below), I said the same thing to myself "Why is there only 1 checkbox on the month?" - It took me a minute to figure out why for myself.... :-)

Oops! Am I embarrassed!! LOL, of course, I didn't think of that! Thats a nifty little feature isn't it?! I'd never noticed it before!

harley: You can set only the last day of June because all other days have already passed. Try to switch to July 2003 and you will see checkboxes for all days :-)

Actually, I have noticed a glitch on the holiday page, there doesn't seem to be a place to tick to place the holidays, except for the last day of the month! I had seen in the BK info page that there was a problem with changing the weekend days, it was causing time-outs in games. So I thought maybe Fencer had turned off the option to set holidays for a short time? I also thought it could just be my page not loading in properly! Does anyone else have this problem?

On the left side of the screen, choose "Settings"

In Settings, there is an option along the top for "Calendar" You can set your vacations (and weekends here)

Hope this helps!

It shows it if the user is currently logged on :-)

Subject: What's this?
I've noticed that on some games, I will see besides the users name and rating, also the last action as shown below. Other games do not show it. Is this normal?

Of course it is possible. Use the 6-months Brain Knight payment process to pay additional $10 and you'll be upgraded :-)

Subject: upgrading
would it be/is it possible to upgrade your membership without paying the full fee on top of what you've already paid. i myself decided to try membership here and paid for a year knight and since i have thought i should maybe upgrade to rook but don't want to pay for that as well as the current membership, i realise this is a pain in the arse but it could encourage more knights to upgrade and could mean more money for the new server, ciao for now, grant.

and now im wondering if this is why i have such terrible time getting in...
from today am trying to log out...FENCER....put the logout out button at the top of the page....I didnt even know there was one until today :(....sorry but thanks angus for pointing this out

Subject: Re: logging out..... not ;)
I do have automatic log-in, which sometimes gets me straight to the main page and other times not. I have a webtv. I never had this problem before, it started yesterday (Tuesday).

Subject: Re: logging out..... not ;)
Which web browser do you use? I know that Opera users used to have this problem and the only workaround I've found for them was to disable cookies.

26. June 2003, 01:15:02

Do you have automatic log-in on?

Subject: logging out..... not ;)
Does anyone else have log-out problems? When I try to log out, it just brings me back to the main page. I disconnected, then went back but the problem is still there.

Subject: Re:
So, if we 'act' on the site within 5 minutes of its going down, do we get put back automatically? Thus, all the 'browsers' get logged off.

25. June 2003, 10:52:14

Because their last actions are less than 5 minutes old.

When the site goes down (a Gateway problem) and I need to sign on again, how come there are already 65 players there ahead of me???

Okay ... auto-refresh turned off long ago :)

24. June 2003, 08:37:08
Fencer 
Subject: Re: Logging out
Whisperz: It does only if the opened page is "refreshable" - Main page or a game page where it is not your turn. And if you don't have the refresh period turned off.

24. June 2003, 08:35:57
Kevin 
Only if you have auto-refresh on. If it is just sitting there with no pages being requested, it won't affect the server at all.

24. June 2003, 08:35:06
WhisperzQ 
Subject: Re: Logging out
I just don't log out ... turn off the screen and go to bed, or to work, or wherever ... so there is at most times a brainking window available. Fencer - does this effect server performance ?

Subject: Logging out
I never click on 'logout' but just close the window. That way I do not have to log in when I return.

what happened to the message about NIRVANA? from GMB

I meant if someone just presses the cross to leave the site, and didn't actually log off. I've noticed people are still on my friends online list for a while after they have left the site, but they haven't logged off, if you see what I mean?! Or maybe they have left the window open, and just gone elsewhere.

No, after clicking on Logout link, the player is no longer displayed as on-line.

22. June 2003, 18:38:13
harley 
I think after you leave the site (without logging off) it stays as though you are online for a while, but then your name disappears from the online player list.
Its more likely people have BK open in a separate window while they are on other sites.

Subject: Question about players on-line status
When I see a player is "on-line" and "browsing the main page", is it possible that they are not really here but just have not logged out? Just curious, as some players seem to be browsing the main page forever, without doing anything. Thanks for your time and help.

Subject: Battleboats
When Battleboats Plus is intruduced, you should get multiply hits per turn - hopefully it will be here soon!

Also, to see the last move - The "Game notation" is right next to the board for me and I can see which squares the last hit were - Which I really like because you can quickly see ALL the previous moves really quickly!

the site should show last move also, give us at least 3 hits a turn

Subject: Refresh Button
Fencer - several of us have turned off the Refresh Button (or in my case, as I don't know how to turn it off, set it to 60 mins) in efforts to reduce the site activity.
Are there other things we do that take up a lot of capacity which perhaps we could cut down on?

but a vision rises ... 0:)

the kasparov biographic movie (chapter three)

*Aseri ! Chip down.*

shows him retiring after defeating all leading chess-programs
in a clock-handicap simultane-match and, furthermore playing
solely at brainking as grey mentor and tutor for the growing community ... :)

good luck and, a comfortable slide into the weekend ! :D ~*~

:o( cute, BBW!! OK, ANYONE who posts any more on that subject will have their posts deleted. Better?! LOL! (Sorry but I can see that being a long, ongoing argument, and this is NOT the place)

Yeah, I've got one message stuck at the top on Battleboats, and its me playing Chatty now, her messages are at the bottom, nothing is appearing at the top at all!

harley: Dmitri & Spiderm4tt can't post about that no more! COOL - Time for me to get into the argument since they can't answer back! (now who's side to take......) :-)

chattytea: I thought I have a couple of my oppenent's messages go strait to the bottom (instead of the top) - but I just figured I was losing it ot something and ignored it. But with new games, there is probable a slight chance things can go wrong.

yes, it is self explanatory-- you are a hypocrite. I don't really care about the post or posts supporting you. The world is full of fools. You can find millions of people who think Elvis is still alive also, but that doesn't mean a damn thing. But as you said, the matter is finished, is it not?
