Subject: Ratings ??
Modified by MadMonkey (10. October 2006, 12:08:30)
I have a feeling there is something wrong with the Line of Action Ratings:


Order Player BKR Counted games
30. Ugo 1564 42 (31/0/11)
31. MIHEL 1492 94 (43/1/50)
32. MadMonkey 1578 37 (21/2/15)
33. KARA 1501 59 (28/0/31)
34. fanciann 1476 78 (42/0/38)


I only noticed this because i am playing MIHEL in a tournament. He has a lower BKR, but is rated high than me.
WHY???

WellyWales: The site has been ok for me, but you can notice as more players sign on that the site gets slower, but then thats always happened although it had got worse this wee. Up until then i had hardly noticed it, in fact a couple of days last week, i was shocked as to how fast it was.

Subject: Re:
imsoaddicted: Well its different to what it used to say, BUT i do not think you should have to put something like that in your profile.
When you play any game on a turned based game site, you follow the stipulations set within the game invite or Tournament. In other words you have 'x' ammount of time to play your move. No one should have the right to then change those stipulations UNLESS for a very legitimate reason, and if they start getting nasty about it that is worse and as you have done nothing wrong, they should be reported to one of the Administrators.
Thats my opinion, but i believe its the right one !

Seriously, it does seem to start happening about now as more people log on to the site.....

Subject: Morning Fencer
When the 'Move' button at the end of a game is set to 'go to the next game with offline player' it works fine until it come across a game where the player is online, but is in cloak mode. If that game is at the top of your list of games it picks it up.

Please could you rectify this for me(us lol) Fencer.

Many Thanks

p.s. Good Morning

The Creator of a Tournament has the option to remove any player(s) they wish from it should they need to.
How does this work in a Run in the Dark Pond ??? Even the Creator does not know who is in it

I still dont see the point of it myself. Be better to have a list of things like on Messengers like Busy, Away, BRB, Out to lunch etc.... At least then we may know if someone is coming back soon or whatever.

Has anyone else noticed, that if you scroll through 'Game Notation' in any version of Battleboats using the arrows at the top << <> >>, once you get upto where it should be your go it wont let you, even though the page says its your go LOL
I have tried a few other games and its fine, only the Boats.

Fencer: Being a bit new to this, well Action points, not BK LOL.
So if i use Firefox i get no points at all, but if i use IE i do. Is that right ?
I seem to have got some from somewhere over the last few days, but having tried both browsers todays nothing seems to happen on either.

Subject: Vacation Days
As was mentioned a while back and a few messages ago. Can we think of a way to be able to get more vacation days. Either by purchasing them, by donation from others or any other ideas.
We all run into problems sometimes, and i had a major one at the start of this year which used all my vacation days.
I know i am here alomost every day anyway, but it would be nice to have a day off at some point LOL

I would say there are enough pawns (ex-paying Rooks members who don't seem to want to renew memberships) taking advantage of playing in team tournaments as it is.
I feel sorry for the Knights that are still paying yet can only enter one tournament at a time still.

Subject: Stevie - Red Crosses
I often get those little white boxes in games like Froglet, Battleboats and Amazons etc... but only when using IE.
If i use Firefox or Netscape it is fine. I guess it must be something to do with the cookies/cache even though i have tried clearing everthing out.
I do find Firefox slightly slower than IE, but at least i can see a complete game board and the pieces LOL.

Subject: Do we need this page ? lol
Fencer: When we take a game out of the Waiting room we get a red 'You have accepted the game invitation' message at the top of our main page.
Could we not just get a simular message when sending a game invite rather that going to a page saying:
New game has been successfully created.
You can find the list of all games you have created on the main page at Your invitations waiting for response table.
Return to Main page.
There seems to be no real need for that page if we could just have a message at the top of the Main page.

I only get them on BrainKing though, which seems on in itself...

I was wandering what was causing them, the only thing that i could come up with was the Google Banner Ads as i dont get them anywhere else.
Andersp, i dont get them on Netscape either if i use that.

I was getting them last week when i was on here harley, but only when using IE, and not had any today.

It has been talked about mrloupcity :-)
I think (though i will probably be corrected lol) that it is still in the plans, but each persons saved message box would have to have a size limit so not to take up to much database space.

Sorry, so he did. I had only just moved and it seemed to appear in my message box. Thought we may have had a little bug turn up :o)

I know they are there now, this was yesterday. they are saying they did not receive any invite in there message box (which seems odd as i know it works), but when they went to the Main Madhouse page they just accepted.
Now, i know i kept inviting them, so how come it let me keep doing it ??

5. July 2004, 14:10:11
MadMonkey 
In BK 1.0, once you had invited a person to a fellowship, you did not have the option to re-invite them unless they left or declined.
I was asked to invite someone (while playing them), which i did in the normal manner. After a while they said they had not received the invite, so i returned to there profile and it let me do it again (I did get a message say they may have already received an invite though). Same outcome 4 times. In the end i told them to just search for the fellowship and they were able to join. Bug ???

4. July 2004, 23:08:13

ok
I had not bothered to look as the date still says 30th June lol :-)
No wonder i keep jumping about on the ranking at the moment, mainly against unrated players.

Fencer, just checked my rating in my profile and it says i am 3rd on BB+ , but when you click on it and goto the ratings it says 2nd.
