Lol. Yep. Fingers crossed .... :-)

SUper Dooper fast now

Iiiiiitttttttt''''''ssssssssssss rrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyy ssssssssssssssllllllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.........

Is the site playing up for everybody else, or is it just my end

Brian1971: I agree with Erinity, i also have a life, i work 5-6 days a week and raise my daughter on my own. Your post was rude and insulting. The line of business i am in, means i am based from home. I think, maybe next time you should chose your words more carefully.

Brian1971: I'm in the top 3 and i 'have a life'. I have a full time job, and I'm married. There's no reason for being insulting if someone is able to play faster than you are, or has different priorities than you. I see from your profile that you want to make friends here, and make your fellowship the best it can be. I am here to play games. I rarely talk to people, I rarely post anywhere. I read two boards, and play. Different priorities, different level of game play. Why be so rude?

Brian1971:
yes i agree some people are on 24/7

gambler104: I personally feel if people are playing virtually every hour, every minute of the day then they need a life. Brainking is a fun site to play on but please someone like me who has a job that leaves me away from home about 12 hours a day, plus a girlfriend to see in my free time and the responsibilities I have leaves me about 2 hours at the most per day to make moves. So someone like me will NEVER have a chance to win a prize using action points.

rednaz23: I think playbunny definitely runs away on the pawn side. On the rook side, I like imsoaddicted as well. Although that one is still up in the air. Short term it has made people move faster. Long term, I think you are going to see people go back to their original pace unless there continues to be some prize each month. Personally, if Fencer were to do something with the Action Points next month, I would suggest giving out 50 brains for a certain number of action points accumulated. Of course he would probably limit the number of brains you could accumulate per month this way. It would give people incentive to play, it would give people brains to enter into the prize with entry fee tournaments, and it would create achievable goals instead of having to play almost every minute of the day to win a prize.

Tycho: But there are 88 games, not 86. Only two to go for Marfitalu though!

I would like to thank all translators to finish the first version of the Player's Dictionary. All entries are available at all 15 supported languages, more to come.

nabla: I'd like to add Carcassonne. But there is a problem with the licence, as usual.

Tycho: All games ?? That is impressive, congrats Marfitalu !!
Fencer, what about a new game so that Marfitalu does not get bored now ?

Tycho: wow!

Congratulations to Master Marfitalu, our most active French-speaking translator! He occupies the first rank as then only player to have be ranked in all games! Such passion should merit Brains!

Who do people think will win the Action Points main prize for each side and how do you think it will effect the site in the short term and long term?

My picks are playbunny and imsoaddicted, even though Mihel is way out in front...

Pedro Martínez:

The patinece of Job...lol.

Normally two days would not bother me. It is just that I am consumed with accumulating action points as is or was this particular opponent. I have several games with slow players and will continue to make moves at their pace.

playBunny:

Thanx for trying help me out.

It is my own fault...clicked the wrong button and couldn't understand why the game was still there so instead of thinking about it for a moment I opened the other game and did the ssme thing again. I will send Fencer a message and hopefully he will be able to help me tomorrow. By then my opponent might have shown up....lol.

yoyudax: Two days! LOL...how about this one:

gambler104:

I can see no way of withdrawing the offer.

yoyudax: Try withdrawing the draw offer and then trying to resign.

Fencer was online about 10 mins ago but has gone off since then. It's 11:45pm for him.

BIG BAD WOLF:

I would like to take care of this right away. How do I contact fencer?

yoyudax: Yea, it looks like once you offer a draw, you don't have the option to resign anymore. If the opponent does not move soon, about the only thing you can do is contact Fencer and let him know you want to resign the game.

Marfitalu:

hope that is the link

Marfitalu:
It is not my turn.

whopper:

He won't mind ...I was just trying to free up my slots so I could work on my action points.

yoyudax: 2 days is not much, especially since he might have been unable to get in yesterday.

Marfitalu:

I cannot see a resign button anymore.

I am playing two "no time limit" games with the same opponent. He has not made a move for two days so this morning I decided to resign from the games. Unfortuantely I clicked the offer a draw button by mistake. Since this person is not online there will be no response and my games are now stuck in limbo. Is there anyway to resign these games or withdraw the offer of a draw?

LOL! Yes perhaps i will buy another one, but i guess i won't do it, since then 90 days of vacation in half a year, would mean that i can break the world record and be written in the Guinness book. But since i don't want publicity i won't do it....

Chicago Bulls: I'm amazed you lost five games on time outs. You've actually used up 60 vacations days in six and a half months? Perhaps you'd better buy another year's Rook membership? :)

whopper:.
.

Lucky you:-) I lost 5 games I hope Fencer will fix this.... And your vacation day of course.....

I couldn't get in either. Lost a vacation day.

playBunny: i couldnt get on when i tried this morning at 7am (cet) .. i could get online around 11 am i think

i dont think i tried after 9pm yesterday evening .. but i am not sure

Nope, had no problems at all

For me it was 4:20pm (UK) yesterday until late this morning.

I couldn't access BrainKing all day yesterday.

Did anyone had problems accessing the site yesterday? Actually today around midnight(for middle Europe).... To be more specific i'm speaking about 21:00, 17 July - 1:00, 18 July GMT time / 23:00, 17 July - 2:00 18 July German time.....
I couldn't access it for 3 hours....

Skittles: Ok thank you i will send her a pm

WatfordFC: Eriisa is doing the paypal now.

Please could u tell me who is dealing with the paypal account now, thank you.

I sure could use one of those

I'm not sure how long the little captures pieces bit and easy access to the score has been available in jarmo above the board as i haven't played the game for a while, but i really like it yay \o/

alanback:

you guys are TWO funny

WellyWales: That would certainly help with all the slav-y spellers out there ;-)

WatfordFC: wen we going to get a spel czech-er ?? we got ever thing else on ear

tonyh: You'll only have to buy the six month membership once. After that your renewal will be in May or June and then you can go back to buying it yearly. This would seem to maximize how many vacation days you could receive by spreading them out over the whole year in six month allotments. When January 1st rolls around you'll get 30 days. Then you renew for a year in June and get reset to 30 days for the remainder of the year knowing the reset for the following January will get you back to 30 days again.

LionsLair: Just an error, i am sure

WatfordFC: Cor, these Welsh just dont know how to spell proper Inglish lyke wot I duz hehehe

*runs to hide* ;o)
