Well, I have done some of my own research, and indeed it looks like Reza had two accounts going at the same time! Both used for playing games, as well as other activities.... I have noticed for example that his "expired" profile has a ponds rating of 2193, not very high as far as pond ratings go, yet his now active pond rating is at 2444, high enough to place him at 14th in the rankings!

It is disconcerting to say the least, and leads us to wonder if other people are pulling the same type of "scam"?

Czuch Czuckers: No. Nobody can explain to you what happened.

8. January 2007, 19:57:27

I am confused.... (I know, shocker huh?)

The messages I have from Reza in my inbox all have his name changed to "expired", and the profile for this user says it is him, but that he will not use that one after his games are finished. Yet he still has his "other" king reza profile as well??? Can anyone explain to me what happened, or what is going on? Did he have two king reza accounts at the same time? I know some people have been allowed to have other accounts, but those were not used for game playing purposes!

Czuch Czuckers: I just tried it on your profile and it works ok for me

8. January 2007, 16:17:05

To look at someones finished games.... just click on their profile and click on the link for finished games then the link for the specific game you want to see??? I try it like this and I dont get a list of their games??? What am I doing wrong?

I knew that about the rankings lists, but all of my "red" dates are for games that I played less than four of. I just never noticed that the date and time turned red on "My profile", "Finished games".
Thank you everyone, I have a thorough understanding now :)

emmett: If it is a red date, it means you are no longer listed in the rankings. (You may have the #1 BKR, but you don't show up on the ranking charts!)

Records of games never delete.

goodbyebking

I've noticed little red dates and times in brackets to the right of finished games on "My profile". Does that indicate that I haven't played a certain type of game for a long time? I must have missed that update. Do records of games ever delete, like, for example, if a game was tried once two years ago...?

Subject: Re:

joshi tm: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_bond

There is a list which list the 21 movies. Right under the list, it also mentiones 2 movies not on the list

Casino Royale (1967 version) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casino_Royale_%281967_film%29

Never Say Never Again (1983) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Never_Say_Never_Again

Both are considered "unofficial" Bond movies because they are non-EON Bond films produced

Of course if Fencer needs some more names, could also use the names of the 6 bonds:
* Sir Sean Connery (1962–1967; 1971)
* George Lazenby (1969)
* Sir Roger Moore (1973–1985)
* Timothy Dalton (1987–1989)
* Pierce Brosnan (1995–2002)
* Daniel Craig (2006–present)

5. January 2007, 17:39:15

Subject: Re: how long can

Jason: It's still unlimited - but would still support a limit of 5 auto-vacation days in a row (making a week when 2 weekend days are added) - most "emergencies" will allow a person to make it back on within a week.

of course you can set your vacation days for more then a week a row - just talking auto-vacation.

2) We should fix it before there are too many time anomalies here.

Sphere Go... Would that be cool?

5. January 2007, 13:05:09

Subject: Re:

But isn't a torus what we here at BK call a sphere?

5. January 2007, 12:08:58

rabbitoid

If you want something really exotic, you could implement those games on a torus, a Moebius strip or a Klein bottle. A lot of fun for Fencer, first to program it (perhaps not too difficult), then to explain the rules (next to impossible)
