Pedro Martínez: This is also a way, of course. I personally would not like it to buy brains instead of earning them by playing games, because playing is what this is all about. But every player is free to try to avoid bying them, or at least buy as few as possible.

Thom27: I have never bought myself a single Brain on this site – only bought them for others. Yet, you must understand that the Brains are used as an equivalent of money here, since we can purchase membership with them. That's why I don't think “20 free Brains for all” is such a good idea, at least not from the owner's point of view. However, making the users be able to purchase them, that's a whole different story.

Pedro Martínez: So how did you get your first brain?

Aganju: I checked my “Brains History” and it says I got my first 50 Brains for having purchased a Rook membership for a person whose name I cannot mention here because it is prohibited to mention names here under a harsh penalty.

Aganju: And it's not necessarly "person's names"... I've been almost shot, in BK, just by using "colours" names... eheheheh.

Martinez, you can buy me a membership... I'll never force you to say my name! :)

BTW, I never bought any brains either, and I still have a few. I think I won them in a free prize tourney...

Gabriel Almeida: colors? You mean politically flavored colors like gas-chamber green, or blood red? Or just normal like purple or pink? Or racially incorrect, like black? Oops. I learned the politically correct term is now 'of color', like 'a man of color' or 'a hole of color' (formerly called a 'black hole')...

warning, the above statement might contain sarcastic or humorous references

Aganju: Oh, I can't remember now... I think it was with "normal colours", but I recommend you to no nominate ANY colour... :)
