good point,after all, it is all about money.
If paying membership increases, that is generally a good indication. It may happen where one or two people may have two paying memberships at the same time but this would be highly unusual and would not affect the numbers to any significant amount to be regarded.

Are you suggesting that the figures reflect an increase in multiple identities and that there is no increase in actual individuals using the site? To test such a hypothesis only requires eliminating "pawns" from the study.

but they can be the same user with different ID's and they would be counted separately.
For example, I know someone who has at least 3 separate ID's. These would be counted as 3 and not 1 by BBW's counting method.

Different users. (You can go to the Player List, and you can sort by "Last Action").

BBW-- those 1400 users are all different users? or the same user logging on at different times?

7. May 2004, 16:50:00

out of that 1,400 only 295 was paying members

I would have to search back a ways to see when I last posted these numbers, but I'm almost positive they are now higher.

Users active in the last 24 hours - 1,400
Users active in the last month - 2,700

... having around 1,400 users active in the last 24 hours is a very big number to me, and shows how this site is growing in popularity

Thanks. The recent observation of 300+ members online certainly suggested as much.

Is the membership of BrainKing increasing, decreasing or remaining more or less static?

Stevie--i suppose it could have, but i didnt think about it :(
It seems to be a subject very popular and very lucrative for many people like Dr. Phil, Atkins, etc.. its always going to be a part of everyone's life.. and i think its a bit different from health and remedies which is probably (i havent been there to be sure) about illnesses, and such..

i hope the diet discussion board will be like a support group, and sounding board for advice on a common struggle of life

Subject: Lythande
I hav found in the past that Fencer is selective as to who he lets have a new board, lets hope you are on that ok list LOL

Also..The diet one could have been included on the current Health and Remedies board could it not

I just took apost off here in case anybody is thinking things have gone wrong....request couldnt possibly be honored hehehehe

Lythande 
<Speaking of discussion boards, I wonder if there'd be interest in a video gamers board. I know it's nothinbg to do with BK, but then, neither does poetry or diet. I figure, people here like games, perhaps they like more than just board games. Besides.. I've got a few FFX-2 questions I wouldn't mind having a few familiar faces off of which to bounce. ;>

Figured I'd bring it here to check the interest level before sending it to the FR board.

6. May 2004, 07:51:35
Antje 
there's a new discussion board for anyone who's interested in diets.. for anyone wanting support for a healthy lifestyle and losing weight---Diet is the name!!

Subject: BK 2.0
BK2.0 will replace this one - All current games, ratings, tournament, etc... will continue.

Hopefully the user will not notice the change over - other then the added features, and the faster code that is "behind" the gamesite. (Which is why it's taking awhile - I believe Fencer is re-writing a lot of it so it runs faster and more reliable)

Subject: BK2
when this is up and running....will the reg. BK disappear...will we have to join that one too?

6. May 2004, 02:49:21
coan.net 
Yea, it's been a bug that it will sometimes show a + number, but not really be anything there.

I believe Fencer is re-writing how the tournament program works, so I think that will be going away in BK2.0

...it means that you have 4 tournaments that you have signed up for, but haven't started yet.
Click onto the info part...where the '?' is.

Seems to me this is a pretty common bug.. One that Fencer fixes when you let him know about it.
He has had to fix it for me once, and I've seen others mention it on the discussion boards from time to time..

Niki 
thanks harley :)
but I've double-checked, and I'm only in 3 or 4, so it's not like I've got a big list to wade through.. and I definitely have no 2nd rounds or tourneys I've signed up for waiting to start.. maybe just some weird bug ? :)

5. May 2004, 18:52:54
harley 
Niki, unless your post promts someones memory to start a tournament or a second round, I'm afraid the only thing I can think of is to go through your tournaments again and double check them. I can help if you like, just send me a message if you need a hand :o)

5. May 2004, 15:32:48
Niki 
I have 21 +4 games.. I have no idea where the +4 has come from ?? I've checked my running/signed for tournaments, and still can't work it out ?! Any ideas please ?

Do you have a ittle green arrow next to where it says "Time Left" on your main screen? If not, click on 'Time Left' and that should sort it for you.
