what about to wait until the list of features is done and then will be a good time to discuss about new BIG features ? :)

Temo: Re:

I think there should be a poll... for new games... top vote gets... People always tell us to wait until the rest of the features are done... I see each time one goes down another goes up... I see ladders... Fencer how are these ladders going to work? IYT has some but thiers do not work very well...

Fencer: I know this has been mentioned before, but could we have a way in which Big Boss's could send a message and also maybe send tournament invites to everyone in a fellowship (maybe tick boxes).
I know of at least 2 fellowships where they like to invite there members to a tournament, but just being able to send a message to everyone would help.
Some people just dont read the fellowship boards.

MM: The database table of messages has almost 100 MB. It wouldn't be wise to implement new ways how to make it even bigger until a new database server can be purchased.

27. Oktobro 2004, 12:16:27

Daniel: Definitely not in the IYT way.

MadMonkey

ok, another future idea then :o)

28. Oktobro 2004, 18:28:43

I just found a discussion board that still has the option to add it to you list of favorites . I thought this option was done away with? Or is it only for DBs from a fellowship that work like that?

I would like to see a return of the ability to have a db on a favorites list, as sometimes I want to go to a db to post a new message when there are currently no new messages waiting to be read, and I have to go to the fellowship first to get to the db.

Temo: Idea for chess tournies.

Thematic tournies, where the starting position is prearranged (usually an opening or variation), might be fun.

Also, if these could be user defined?

Just a thought.

IMCK: Yes, you can still add and remove general (non-fellowship) Discussion Boards to your favourites list.

is there a way to hide the game notation? if the board were bigger on Espionage...I could read the numbers on the soldiers.Are there any other web tv folks having this problem?
I can read them when the board is 1st set up,but once the game notation appears its too small to make out.

30. Oktobro 2004, 09:28:06

bumble

I think all web tv users have the same problem with the numbers, bwild. I know fluzzy does - but I put that down to her being one of the ancients. :)

Temo: Re: game notation

Some other sites have a link to click on to get game notation if we want it. I usually have mine turned off, but am glad it's there in case I need it.

30. Oktobro 2004, 13:47:20

Temo: Re: game notation

I use the notation alot,scanning chess games...but its kinda useless for Espionage.

30. Oktobro 2004, 13:48:55

LOL@bumble...Ancient???? she told me she was 21. LOL;-) j/k

30. Oktobro 2004, 17:48:34

rod03801

Yes, the ranks on the espionage pieces are way too small for tv's.... Fencer is going to be making them easier to see, at some point.

30. Oktobro 2004, 17:55:21

seems a "hide" feature for notation would be easiest,and possibly helpful in other games....but then again,I'm no programing guru,like Fencer ;-)
*quick! someone give me a towel ;-)*

Fencer's a gnu? :)

NOT a floosie

LOL Don't pay any attention to Bumble!

(Hmmmm....wonder how long before I get hidden!)

31. Oktobro 2004, 18:20:48

When an arsehole deletes a message does it remain, like a species of shadow, for the moderator's records? If not, I suggest that as a feature whereby arguements would have increased back-up, say in the case of patent law, et al.

31. Oktobro 2004, 18:22:58

In short I would like to be able to ask any moderator to retrieve a deleted post.

31. Oktobro 2004, 18:24:40

Yes, deleted messages are archived.

31. Oktobro 2004, 18:28:40

Thanks and good.

31. Oktobro 2004, 19:02:25

Can we have a linguistics board? I'd like to find a word to cover LongJohn.

31. Oktobro 2004, 20:27:55

PauloGomes

and about Jokes Db's?

31. Oktobro 2004, 20:41:57

How about duplicated posts??

31. Oktobro 2004, 20:59:58

On the statistics pages it would be fun to see which users delete what proportion of their messages.

1. Novembro 2004, 15:49:50

grenv

How about updating the S-B scores while the tournament is running. I know they are meaningless early, but as the tournament progresses it becomes interesting.

1. Novembro 2004, 20:09:30

Hrqls

Temo: notes about opponents

is it possible to add notes to a certain player ... notes only you can read .. like the notes you can make about the game in espionage .. it would be a nice way to write your own notes to remember certain strategies a specific opponent uses

1. Novembro 2004, 20:45:32

There is a notepad for paying members. You can write notes about anything you want there.

1. Novembro 2004, 21:12:40

harley

Hrqls, when you look at 'friends', do you have a box saying 'change description' then a drop down box with your friends listed? If so, you could add your regular opponents there and put notes about their game play. I'm not sure if this feature is available to pawns.

1. Novembro 2004, 21:16:12

Caissus

and below the board there is a button "add a note"...

1. Novembro 2004, 21:29:06

Yes, pawns have the description of Friends as well :-)

2. Novembro 2004, 03:21:44

LOL! I have never used that feature :)
Pretty cool!
Is that description listed anywhere else,or accessable anywhere else? It seems it would take up a lot of space if you had a complete game playing description for all of your friends.

2. Novembro 2004, 03:25:29

It would be nice to be able to write notes about players and their game habits where they could be kept in a file that could be accessed anytime, not just during a game. If you were to be in a match with someone, you could just pull up their name and see any notes you had on them
.

2. Novembro 2004, 03:55:27

yeah....I could have catagories...stalked,to be stalked,dont want to stalk... LOL:)

2. Novembro 2004, 04:32:43

rod03801

Also convenient for keeping track of those who change names a lot.. :-)

2. Novembro 2004, 07:41:44

Hrqls

ah!!! nice!! thats what i meant .. the descriptions in the friends screen .. of course its only needed for regular opponents which will probably be in the friends list .. thanks!

after the backgammon prize tournament is over i will be a paying member .. wether i have to for it myself or let the tournament pay for it ... i still have a (very small) chance .. go mary jo! ;)

its nice to have this feature for pawns already as well ...

it would be nice to be able to place notes about certain players strategies per game which could be read when playing that specific type of game .. but for now i have all i need :)

2. Novembro 2004, 10:21:03

Nirvana

how about ataxx on here?

2. Novembro 2004, 22:21:39

Maybe a link where it shows your won lost record against a player, that shows your notes for that person in that game type.

3. Novembro 2004, 00:00:02

Temo: Unfinished games

How about adding a column to the list of unfinished games on profiles: "Started" or something like that. It would list the date (and time?) that the game was started, and the list could be sorted by that column.

3. Novembro 2004, 01:00:50

BuilderQ

How about an option to filter the tournament list by creator? BrainKing already stores that information; for example, all of Big Bad Wolf's tournaments appear on the following page: http://brainking.com/game/Tournaments?trnst=10&tp=0&submit=Show&u=2560, so little change would be needed.

Temo: Fencer

I would like to be able to delete messages that need approval.

3. Novembro 2004, 11:00:40

You can if you are the board moderator.
