<< < 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 > >> 12. July 2005, 06:10:00 Subject: Re: Czuch Chuckers: Debating is bad for children now? Heaven forbid they learn to develop an opinion or two early in life. 4. July 2005, 20:15:45 1. If I was hidden you wouldn't have read it or responded to it. Do you really think other people are as s****d as you?
2. You're clearly not a native English speaker. 4. July 2005, 19:40:15 Subject: Re: Majority Czuch Chuckers: I didn't read all the discussion, but as a native english speaker with a relatively high level of education, it is true to say that NO country has a majority of users.
More importantly it IS true to say that the majority of users don't have a holiday on the 4th of July. This, I believe, is the point. 25. June 2005, 22:54:57 Feature Request: Whining and Whinging board. I would of course know never to go there. 25. June 2005, 15:59:44 Subject: Re: baudrillard: I must admit that, much as I think cloak mode is silly, it certainly has no effect whatsoever on me if someone else has it on. 24. June 2005, 20:32:24 Subject: Re: Adjusted BKR Pioneer54: I agree with most points. However, as with the real chess ratings, inactive players should be removed from the list. If they become active they go back. 17. June 2005, 01:18:34 Subject: Re: You're playing how many games?!! AbigailII: I know it's not perfect. But actually with more games going you would have more chance to play quickly. I frequently don't have any games where it's my turn and am slower than I otherwise would be. Someone with 900 games going would never be in that situation.
Anyway, it's just an attempt to rank players by how quickly they will move in a given game. If you can think of another way to determine that I'm all ears. 17. June 2005, 00:55:40 Subject: Re: You're playing how many games?!! AbigailII: The point is not how fast you are playing, but how many moves per game each day. So if you play more games, you will play fewer turns per day.
I may play 200 turns in a day, but because I play 20 games, that's 10 moves per game per day. If I played 200 games I'd average 1 move per game per day. 16. June 2005, 22:39:46 Subject: Re: You're playing how many games?!! Modified by grenv (16. June 2005, 22:40:02) Walter Montego: You're correct 50/25 = 1400/700.
The reason for going back a month is just to get more statistical data, meaning a more accurate assessment of the player's speed. Hrqls: Probably a good idea to split by game type, since some players choose to move backgammon quickly but think for days on chess for instance. playBunny: No need to be condescending.  16. June 2005, 20:33:53 Subject: Re: You're playing how many games?!! Walter Montego: I like it as well.
I think, though, that a speed rating would be useful. It would be: Moves per Day in last month / Number of Games Currently playing I would prefer to filter by this value. 14. June 2005, 21:08:32 Subject: Re: 1 hour limit Jason: I understand the way it works now. My question is how do you play a 40 move game of anything with 1 hour limits?????????????
That's why total game time makes more sense. Walter Montego: Simple solution to your problem is don't join too many games at once. 14. June 2005, 20:17:36 Subject: Re: 1 hour limit pauloaguia: Um, reloading the page takes a few seconds. Surely a 3 minute game would be aa good "Lightning version".
Anyway, the 2 hours max time would be good, working just like a real chess clock, but without the silly adding time when you move. I'm ok with adding 30 minutes per 40 moves or something. 14. June 2005, 19:57:46 I don't think one hour is a good idea. Much better would be 2 hours for the whole game or something like that. If the game length is unknown then I might fall asleep before the game is over.
Another reason why 3 minute limits are probably better. 13. June 2005, 17:01:16 Subject: Re: Rain Ponds Request Universal Eyes: que?
What I said was when 2 players are left in a pond, the winner is already known. No need to play the last round. 13. June 2005, 16:32:34 Subject: Re: Rain Ponds Request BIG BAD WOLF: Better yet, with 2 players left, whoever has the most points wins. Why play another round? 13. June 2005, 03:40:54 Subject: Re: Cloak mode Andersp: Nice move. I'd say that's checkmate! 13. June 2005, 01:45:58 Subject: Re: Andersp: Actually it's only useful for players that play a few games. Those that play hundreds a once it's hard to keep up with and I don't find the last action feature useful for them at all. 13. June 2005, 00:21:28 Subject: Re: AbigailII: But we knew by default. You had to go ou of your way to find and activate cloak. So you had to have a reason for doing it didn't you? 12. June 2005, 22:39:21 Subject: Re: chessmec: you are joking right? Goverments are building up databases on what games I play? No wonder they miss the important stuff. I notice you are not on cloak, so it must have been a joke. 12. June 2005, 22:30:44 Subject: Re: plaintiger: That's right, because fencer is broadcasting everyone's address, telephone number, Social Security Numbers and bank account numbers. Better hide all that by going into cloak mode.
Watch out behind you! 12. June 2005, 21:35:40 Subject: Re: Too much talk about cloak mode. Useless ridiculous feature.
Andersp, take note of the spelling. You may need it next time someone talks about scaredy, er i mean cloak, mode 12. June 2005, 21:09:59 Subject: Re: Modified by grenv (12. June 2005, 21:10:14) plaintiger: This was requested here by more than one person and implemented. of course you could just uncloak yourself whenever you need to spy, which can't be done in reverse. 12. June 2005, 01:35:48 Subject: Re: Match option frolind: Hear hear. Start all the games at once. Brilliant. Wish I'd thought of it.  9. June 2005, 23:35:50 Subject: Re: 2 requests Summertop: I think it means "I have no idea how to spell this word, but did I guess right?"
 8. June 2005, 19:37:52 Subject: Re: Zu Ende. playBunny: All I asked for was a definition other than "most recent thing the user did". I say that is the only possible interpretation and therefore it isn't ambiguous.
QED 8. June 2005, 18:43:38 Subject: Re: Lolol playBunny: It's not ambiguous. Action is clearly referring to the most recent thing that the user did on the site. What else could it mean? 8. June 2005, 17:41:52 And what about viewed game? That implies that I am no longer viewing, even though I might be. The time is important either way. 8. June 2005, 17:39:06 Subject: Re: Rofl. All this for one teeny weeny issue?!! playBunny:
Nice try, but it says: Last Action: Logging out It is not ambiguous in the slightest. 8. June 2005, 17:10:41 Subject: Re: Lolol Luke Skywalker: I was trying not to say the obvious, but you are correct. And from a non-English speaking country as well.
We should do a better job of teaching English in countries where it is the main language it seems. So I believe we've established that the sentence: "grenv's last action was logging out" is correct. The alternative "grenv's last action resulted in him being logged out" is clumsy at best. 8. June 2005, 14:29:22 Subject: Re: Player's last Action playBunny:
Q: What were you doing? A: I was playing. This is not present tense!!!! 8. June 2005, 04:20:10 Subject: Re: Player's Last Action playBunny: I think this is correct, the last action was logging out. Besides, the date and time are there. 5. June 2005, 00:40:55 Subject: Re: baudrillard: I agree, I meant that I don't think anyone pays money to join a game site because of peripheral features. I could be wrong. 4. June 2005, 23:59:21 Subject: Re: baudrillard: I disagree actually. Nobody's paying for this site for anything other than playing games.
In fact giving all the extras (other than # of games etc) to non-paying players would not have an impact on sales IMO, so might as well. 3. June 2005, 14:58:52 Subject: Re: Style sheets AbigailII:
Don't forget the other attributes: .unread-messages { font-size: 8px; color: #ff0000; font-weight: bold; } On the other hand, would this really be useful?  2. June 2005, 17:36:51 Subject: Re: invitations to only players with established BKR's Summertop: As the tournament creator you could make it clear right now that established ratings only will be allowed. You can then boot people out of the tournament if they aren't complying. 2. June 2005, 14:42:58 Subject: Re: first focus when opening BrainKing.com Hrqls: Did you say illegal?? Don't be ridiculous. It may be against company policy, but there's no such law. 1. June 2005, 19:51:52 Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: first focus when opening BrainKing.com Luke Skywalker: hear hear.
1. June 2005, 19:40:31 Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: first focus when opening BrainKing.com Hrqls: I let my browser remember, so all i need to do is click the login button. :) 27. May 2005, 17:39:15 Subject: Re: Another game that looks interesting. AbigailII: Great game! I vote for it. :) 23. May 2005, 15:14:05 Subject: Re: Cloak Mode AbigailII: Clearly cloak mode is not designed to protect your SSN, not to mention that probably more than half the people viewing this don't even have one.  23. May 2005, 03:23:29 Subject: Re: Perpetual draw offers should be prohibited Czuch Chuckers: You're right, I would need to click the checkbox each turn. 22. May 2005, 23:08:44 Subject: Re: Perpetual draw offers should be prohibited Caissus: It isn't always obvious that the draw was offered, I've missed it occasionally. If I think the game is a draw I will offer every turn until my opponent answers with some indication they saw it and declined. 22. May 2005, 18:06:57 What's the big deal? You can just ignore the offer and move anyway, right? 22. May 2005, 00:38:18 Subject: Re: Pagination on tournament pages. rod03801: I've never seen WebTV, but I'd have to agree with Walter, if you can't see the whole page that's a bug in the browser I would think, let them know and maybe it will get fixed!
21. May 2005, 19:47:52 Subject: Re: Pagination on tournament pages. Fencer: I agree, it would have to be an option since I don't think that would be a good experience on a regular browser. 20. May 2005, 14:25:01 I think the list of challenges should be accompanied by checkboxes, with 2 buttons; "accept checked" and "reject checked" 18. May 2005, 00:07:25 Subject: Re: 1 Modified by grenv (18. May 2005, 04:23:42) THE HIT MAN: There's no need to be a complete * about it you *.
*There is also no reason to call people names on the public boards. HEY, why do you have the right to alter my perfectly reasonable response to a stupid comment. << < 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 > >> |
