There is currently a bug which was timing people out even though they should not have been.

Since Fencer is working on a new time-out system, he turned off the current system until the new one is in place.

I havent been on here for a few days and was wondering why game time is suspended??

well it happened on that one. :-)

i wonder how often you will fill up a line in spider, i don't remeber ever doing it.

Scooter. What do you mean?
That game is Spider Linetris. When an edge is filled up, it disappears. You can either click on the list of moves, lower down to see this, or use the backward arrows to go back moves and see it.

Can anyone (Fencer) help me with this game? Some of the past moves are not showing up! Thanks,

Euro is definitelly not English. They didn't want it :P
Euro is from almost everywhere else in the EU.

1€ = 1.24$ nowadays. Latest convertions can be found here. But you may have to add some conversion fee or something, I think it depends on the payment method and the country you're in...

membership is free on that site. But that is only my thinking. Maybe to play on the site it's free but not membership.
:o{P

The prices are in eur, I'm guessing that means euros which I think is English. What is that in American Dollars?

No, I can see you just fine, Eriisa! :Þ

hey, does anyone have trouble with the little froggies showing up? I keep having to hit refresh 3 or 4 times to get all colors to show.

I found it Rose. Try this.. agamester

Hello everyone. I have just become a registered user here and well be the first to say.... I love this sites layout. I would also like to thank the web-site owner for his permission (and being the first) to authorize me to use of his sites name and logo on my web page. I am hoping that it isn't against any site rules to post links, but here it is and I hope everyone is pleased and interested in participating what I am trying to start. Feel free to message me or invite me to a game.

LMAO@Bwild

111 of them are the UE family!!!LOL:)

Yes :-)

I seen that when I loged on, 11111

11111?

How do you like the number of registered users? :-D

They don't have it.

When I made my last change to my profile (Take a look, it's long - but not as long as it was before!) - I tested it in the BrainKing Notepad first, edited it to make sure it looked like I wanted, then copy-pasted into the true profile edit field. I forget if pawns have a BrainKing Notepad, but if so - try it there!

so no bikini pics of you then,harley? dang!! j/k

Chaosu, profiles need to be approved so nobody puts offensive notes there. The same as photographs must be approved. You will find that it happens fairly quickly, Fencer is online very often, you should get a response within 24 hours, usually much quicker. Not a great time to wait to keep profiles clean, I don't think. :o)

I want change my profile but i don't know how it's looking, so prepare to spam from me i will change it every time when You accept or decline my new description.

the last game you played (checkers) was an unrated game so that is correct , no change to bkr

How come the last game finish messages I've been getting don't have the ratings as they used to?
Has there been any change in this?

plaintiger, click 'team tournaments' and the game you want - then there is a small link at the top which says "Tournament tables | Player results"
Click 'player results' and I think thats what you want?

is there a way to see my standings in relation to a whole team tournament with just one click, instead of having to check my standings opponent-by-opponent? if that makes sense? :)

ha ha ha!!!..;o)

Those screwdrivers'll get you every time.

i was making my 2nd move in a gammon game against Zack and i ended up in a froglet game against Capricorn??...which isnt a game of mine!..heheee!
oh well,ill try again ;o)

What kind of problems are you having?

It is fairly easy if you go to the person's profile, or if they just finished a game with you.

Here is how I invite a user to a game.

1) Go to that persons profile
2) Find the " Invite PLAYER to a game of ____", choose a game and hit send
3)This page you have lots of options to invite multiply games, who is what color, etc - default is 1 normal game. At this point, you should be able to hit Send.
4) At this point it is waiting for the other person to accept. on the bottom of your main page, you will see a list of invites you have sent.

If you are still having problems, let me know and I can try to help.

I have such a hard time trying to invite someone to play. If I go to send invitation that doesn't set up a game. I really feel ignorant in spinning my wheels on what should be a simple procedure.

as do gooner and myself...and Stevie and myself...its an "adult" thing to do.

Harley and I have the same understanding.

that makes too much sense.

Exactly, bwild.
When I asked MadMonkey and NOT a floosie to be my co-mods, we laid the ground rules between us.
If I don't agree with one of their decisions, or they with mine, we sort it out in private.

I share moderator positions with others on different boards and have no trouble whatso ever.The gc board has turned into a joke.
Theres a total lackof communication,on behalf of the moderators...myself included...though I have tried.Even though the main moderator cant figure out how to remove his "helpers" I really would like to wash my hands of the whole deal.I thought I could help....but it seems I was wrong.

That is one of the reasons for the past year, I have been saying that there should be some sort of rules/guidelines that Moderators should try to follow on all public boards - but as you see, each Moderator is left to determin the rules for themselves - and when multiply Moderators try to watch the same room, when one of them see's things differently how things should be ran. (For example, GC room - one see's off topic post as good, other see's it as bad. One see's removing post and leaving user as OK, other sees that post should be put on hide.... etc... etc...) Time like this I'm glad I don't share Moderator job with anyone on the boards I watch! :-)

What would be some rules/guidelines Moderators should have (in my opinion)

1) Post should try to stay on topic of the room. IF post start to go off topic, a friendly reminder should be posted by Moderator to take the talk to General Chat, or where it is appropriate.

2) Foul Language needs to be removed from the board. If a post is a good on-topic post with just place or two of foul language, the post should be edited to remove the foul language, and also at the bottom of the post, you should put *edited by XXXXX for language*

3) If there are multiply Moderators of a room, the first one listed in the MAIN Moderator. If any of the other Moderators comes across someone breaking the rules over and over, they should HIDE that persons and let the main moderator have a look at them to decided if that person should be banned.

4) The MAIN Moderator should be the only person to unban a user. The only exception whould be if the main moderator is off line for more then 4 days, and the punishment has been served by the user.

... of course those 4 are just off the top of my head - probable need to be tweeked more, and more added.

true LOL And inter mod respect of decisions works also

It hasn't failed, generally. (To have different moderators). I think it just helps when they get along :o)

Look on the Gothic Chess board: Only themes "off topic" (ban or not ban).It seems the concept of the different moderators is failed.

thank you - thank you - too early in the morn for me to think too much :o)

yep! ;o)

Is that why I have a red "Game time suspended" on my main page and there's more time added to my games? :)

I've disabled timeouts until the new timeout system is lauched. The current one is a little, uh, buggy and although it affected only a few players, it would be better to avoid more wrong timeouts in advance.

pauloaguia: Several checkers players asked me for this option. When it's set, you'll see white pieces as black ones and vice versa.
