Subject: New game proposal: mini shogi

I would like to propose a new game on Brainking: mini shogi.


The game is played like regular shogi with these exceptions:



  • it is played on a 5x5 board (instead of 9x9)

  • promotion is possible on the last rank only

The begin position is as follows:

R,B,S,G,K
_,_,_,_,P
_,_,_,_,_
p,_,_,_,_
k,g,s,b,r

So there is no knight or lance and only one pawn each.


There are some advantages of mini shogi as a first introduction to shogi:



  • games do not take many moves, so it is better for beginners

  • the basic characteristics of shogi are maintained (dropping, promotion)

  • you should play very actively or you get overplayed

  • it is an interesting game in its own, also for skilled players

The game was introduced in the seventies by a Japanese professional.


Hope to see it some time on Brainking.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to see a statistic that would tell you the average time it takes a player to move, from the time the move appears on his move list to the time he submits a move?

Hello: Is this site available to teens and kids? If it is them maybe you could try to add board and other games that they like to play. Adults could try to play them too.

Subject: Re: "move and go to" menu
rod03801: Im not sure what the "new" one is ( I read the blog too) but the one that says "move and go to the next game with the most moves" is not even necessary, since we could already order our games by the most moves then simply use the "move and go to the next game" option!

I agree, the one we really need is the "move and go to the next fischer's game" option!!!!

Subject: Multi-game tournaments
I don't know if there hes been thid kind of request, but I'd love to see multi-game tournaments. For example, every players play all games against each others, or different games in different rounds etc. (To have very hazard tourneys: different games to different people) :)

Is it hard to implement? What do you think of idea?

Hey Fencer, while your adding things to the "move and go to" menu, how about move and go to next fischer clock game?? It is "absolutely necessary" too! (I read the blog.. lol)

Actually, another thing I would like to see is for each game to have a check box that you can click, and have that game or those games always come to the top of your list, no matter how you have your list ordered. This is good if you have certain people whose games you always want to move on as soon as you can. Friends... Especially interesting games.. or pawns.. (when I get ahead, I like to try and help my pawn opponents out and move more quickly on their games since they are limited.. though I haven't been "ahead" in a while! lol) ..

It could either be set up as the game automatically going to the top, or as an addition to the move and go to menu as "move and go to next checked (or special, or chosen or whatever term) game."

Subject: Gigamic games
An "official" letter has been sent in July to the French society Gigamic who commercializes some interesting games (Pylos, Quarto, Quoridor, Goblet...), in order to obtain the authorization to program their games on Brainking.
Unfortunately, a negative answer has been obtained.

WatfordFC: Well, thats sort of funny! I just picked a tourney I was in... I just think a DB on a page like that would be cool! It would give people a place to talk about their specific tourney. There is no such place now for anything. You could make it so that the DB is closed once the last game is completed. It could work and I personally would like to see it. Please Fencer? This would count as my one "request" that a black rook gets... No? Yes? MAYBE! All right!

On that note... I thought of this... "More like one in a million..." "One in a million... so you're telling me there's a chance!" What movie is that? LOL

Subject: Result of last game of a match
In the message sent when the final game of a match has been completed, no mention of the game being part of a match is made, yet the match result is stated as if it were the game result. Could this type of message include separate mentions of the game's result and the match's result?

Subject: BK ranking list
There is a list of our BrainKing ratings rankings on our main page. There is currently an option to have them there or not. I am wondering if it is possible to offer us the choice in Settings to choose the game rankings that are listed. I have ratings in a dozen games or so. I would like to be able to choose about half of them to be displayed. The reason for my request is so that I don't have to scroll down to see if an opponent has moved. I still like the rankings shown at the top, however.

Baked Alaskan: Monopoly would probable not work too well on a turn based game site, but I bet I (along with others) could think up some good rules of how to get a turn-based buy/sell land, buy/sell houses/hotels into a game which would work well for a turn based game site.

Personally I dont think Monopoly would be good for a turn based site. For instance, just wanting to do a trade with someone would have to waste a turn. Game would take 2 yrs to finish. 
And also the auctions..  How would you do the auctions?

Subject: Optional Autopass ?
Is it possible to make Autopass to be something would be done based upon a user setting ?
In other words, a user would have to OPT-IN in order to have autopass work, and by default new users would be opted-out.

In that way, it is a bit of a compromise with Fencer's position and those who would rather have autopass.

Just a thought,
-tim

Leviathan 
Subject: Some new games
I have just two suggestions (one of them, at least, has already been talked about in other boards on this site--I think--but I'm not aware of how the discussion ended). The first one is about Tablut: what about adding more versions of it (the one with the four corners rule, for instance, King being able to participate in captures) and other Tafl games as well? Asymmetrical games (like Fox And Geese) are too very exciting to play, and it would be nice to have some of them in the great BrainKing community.
The second suggestion is about Hex 11x11: could it be possible to have a version of this classical game also implemented? Thank you very much.
