<< < 1 2 3 > >> 15. May 2011, 20:17:10 Subject: Re: I note one thing rabbitoid: I have asked several players and all but one say that BK is very slow. As crosseyed says, white pages appear for ages. What is going on? 4. May 2008, 07:03:43 Subject: Re: Reloading time alanback: but does it have to be that way? On Gameknot, you can make your chess move and then press 'Submit' and it is much quicker. 3.

October 2007, 15:35:00 Subject: Slow Response Why is BK so slow in responding and why does it keep going to 'Website not Found'/ 13. December 2006, 13:11:52 Subject: Re: Statistics; Top 50 Players by average game type pauloaguia: Ah, but I reckon I have 41 games with an established ranking, on my Profile. 13. December 2006, 11:37:24 Subject: Re: Statistics; Top 50 Players by average game type Fencer: It's just that, if I add up all the game types where I have reached 25 games played, it comes to more than the number on the list, I think. 13. December 2006, 11:27:06 Subject: Statistics; Top 50 Players by average game type Do these stats include Pond ratings? 17. July 2006, 11:49:12 Subject: Re: Competitiveness and fairness Walter Montego: and taking out a six-month membership would cost an extra 12 euros a year, which is fine by me; I would wiilingly pay extra for that extra 30 days vacation time!! I agree that probably very few players are constrained by 30 days vacation time - but I am one and it causes major headaches!! 16. July 2006, 11:02:35 Subject: Re: Competitiveness and fairness Hrqls: Do you REALLY get an extra 30 days in January!!!??? Fencer, please confirm! 16. July 2006, 10:25:24 Subject: Re: Competitiveness and fairness Fencer: I went to 'Paid membership' to see how much a Black Rook costs - but i cannot see it; where do I look, please? 16. July 2006, 10:18:49 Subject: Re: Competitiveness and fairness Hrqls: I definitely approve of 'babysitting'; it's the only way of coping with a year's 30 day vacation time. By the time I get to October (assuming Vacation time started in January), I have no days left - so what do I do? I have asked fencer whether we could pay extra for more days. This could be based on whether a player is a quick player or not. 22. June 2006, 19:23:18 Subject: Re: WatfordFC: I will check tomorrow!! 22. June 2006, 19:15:43 Subject: Re: WatfordFC: I agree that the daily rate is good - but Post offices deduct their take from the rate - or charge you a commission. And Banks are worse. If the Euro is 1.44 to the £, then you can bet the banks will be giving you 1.38!! 22. June 2006, 19:10:48 Subject: Re: Walter Montego: Do you find that you get a good exchange rate at the liquor store or Post Office? My experience is otherwise, with UK Post Offices. 22. June 2006, 09:46:56 Subject: Re: Paypal Jason: Fencer, please tell us what the Paypal problem is - or have I missed something? 16. December 2005, 12:03:33 Subject: Re: Vacation days playBunny: Many thanks, indeed!!! It is astonishing how affronted people get!
I appreciate that the programming of this alternative may be tricky - but it would be very useful. Having 3 weeks holiday on a remote camp-site in Cornwall tends to destroy vacation time!! 15. December 2005, 15:47:06 Subject: Re: Vacation days mismatch. nabla: So there is your answer; you could save money from your 1st January salary to spill over to the following year. Here, you can't. 15. December 2005, 15:32:03 Subject: Re: Vacation days mismatch. Fencer: If a member has unused vacations days at 31 December, what happens to them? Do they just disappear? 15. December 2005, 15:16:35 Subject: Re: Vacation days mismatch. Fencer: What, pray, is a good argument to convince you? 15. December 2005, 15:03:43 Subject: Re: Vacation days mismatch. Hrqls: I think we could have 30 days as a start off. Then we deduct vacation days and add on 2 or 3 days a month until we get back to 30 days maximum. That way, we could always have enough days for vacations.
Other sites do it thia way. 15. December 2005, 07:23:35 Subject: Re: Vacation days Vikings: Because, Vikings, I take plenty of holidays where there aren't always Internt cafes; what's this 'discipline' nonsense? 15. December 2005, 00:16:22 Subject: Re: Vacation days playBunny: Thank you for explaining this so perfectly; as you say, BK could allocate 2 days in one month and 3 days in the next.
What do you think of this so far, Fencer? 14. December 2005, 16:35:49 Subject: Re: Vacations Modified by tonyh (14. December 2005, 16:37:16) Fencer: the 30 days vacation time is renewed at the end of each month (you might have to give us 36 days!! or add on 2 1/2 days).
that way, we need never worry about running out of vacation time towards the end 0f the year. For example, I have 0 days left but will get 30 days in January, when I don't really need them then. 14. December 2005, 12:25:27 Subject: Vacations Would it be possible to have a rolling number of vacations days; I find that approaching Xmas, I've nearly used up all mine. 7. December 2005, 15:23:40 Subject: Re: Fencer: Any decisiopn on Rooks who build up thousands of games and then become pawns? 28. November 2005, 14:21:32 Subject: Re: Expired memberships Fencer: Yes, very good idea. 9. October 2005, 08:53:47 Subject: Slow Play Is it just me - or are players taking longer over their moves. Does Fencer have any stats on the speed of play? 5. October 2005, 10:20:43 Subject: Message to Abigail11 Modified by tonyh (5. October 2005, 13:30:17) Am I on your Blocked Users List? If so, why? I wanted to send you a tournament invite. 14. May 2005, 08:44:39 Subject: Re: Ponds Fencer: Very much looking forward to that; you have a crowd of junkies out in the World! 27. January 2005, 14:56:03 Subject: Sequence? I've arranged my waiting games in Game order; what is the sequence within each game, please? 4. January 2005, 14:34:53 Subject: Re: Charts again Fencer: Great to remove inactive players from the charts. 4. January 2005, 12:19:28 Subject: Pawns & Ratings Fencer; you will know (probably) how many Pawns will disappear, who might otherwise have taken up Paid membership. To me, this is the only downside.
How about asking top-rated Pawns to see what they might do (but bear in mind you probably won't get a true answer!!!) 7. December 2004, 14:54:52 Subject: Run Around Well, you've got 52 of us to sign up for a game no-one (except BB) knows anything about!! Do we need skill? Should we rename it Dark Dark? 7. December 2004, 14:15:02 Subject: Re: Run Around The Pond I read the rules but I still don't have a good idea as to what the game is all about!! 6. December 2004, 11:13:15 Subject: Re: Back Buttons Fencer; what's wrong with using back buttons? 23. March 2004, 15:24:50 Subject: Backgammon Bores What pleasure do those sad anoraks get by playing on to the very end, even when they have no way of winning. Mind you, I cheer when they throw a double 6. 29. January 2004, 17:56:21 Subject: Re: Great, keep the BKRs off forever; then I don't have to page down to get at the games. 5. September 2003, 10:19:42 Subject: Re: Im sorry Bernice - I was happily playing on the site at 8.56 am (your message time); it is always the best time of the day. Hardly ever get any time-outs from now until noon.
So maybe it could be an Aussie problem; does Whisperz have your kind of problems? 4. September 2003, 17:46:24 Subject: Site Problems I wonder whether any of the top five most active players, all with moves over 600, are experiencing any problems? If they are, how do they manage? << < 1 2 3 > >> |
