inpassant: Always?

MadMonkey: I found the same. Always the same number when you roll the dice.

Does anyone else ever wonder if sometimes in Poker the dice you select to roll do not actually seem to roll.
I think of the times i have rolled 2, 3, 4 or 5 dice and got exact the same numbers back.
Just seems to be a very much above average of probability (someone can work it out lol) that this is happening.
An observation really as i do not play a lot of Poker, someone who plays a lot would have a better idea i guess

That's why I always make my Single Elimination tourneys now with 2 win matches to advance. Seemed like it just levels the playing field a bit.......

joshi tm: That's not nice ;)
Well, when it comes to unbalanced games like Mancala I'd always prefer 3-wins-matches or something like that, so things get a bit more even. But why not let it be random who's white and who's black?

Gordon Shumway: Lets say we have an Eliminator 8.

The seeding would be:

1vs8
5vs4
3vs6
7vs2

In fact a second best player you will always play Black, as first rated player you'll play White all the times.

joshi tm: Might depend on who is black and who is white. Or is the higher rated player always white?

Great. I requested this feature for in some games one player hass an advantage. For example in a Mancala elimination tournament always the highest rated player wins.

kintori: Yes, only you can see what is in your notepad.

rednaz23:

Fortunatly, I do save it (on my desktop)

Arctic Warrior: The same thing happened to me a couple of nights ago. I learned my lesson... I should always copy and save the whole profile to the notepad after I finish with a profile edit... that will solve a lot of time. :-) You could also save old versions of your profile there and can always go back to one of those... ;-)

Good luck in the future!

Fencer:

I didnt edit my profile today, yet it has completely disappeared...  (That was when I first logged in and posted that it disappeared)  Now, I just looked and there is a profile but from months ago, Not the one that was there lastnight. 

No biggie, I will delete it and start over... 

Arctic Warrior: What now?

Arctic Warrior:  Turn sideways, let me see ... no, it's still there, for what it's worth ...

Fencer:

Well, my whole profile disappeared and I didnt even edit it  

Grrrrrrr

Fencer:
working now thanks

"Snoopy": Please try it now.

Sounds like someone needs to put it into the Bug Tracker.

Tigger: Yes! I tried to update my profile in rich text, but it only worked in plain text

"Snoopy":  I tried that too and mine went "poof" too.  ;)  It still shows on my profile but when I press edit now, it's totally blank. 

Fencer using rich text to update my profile isnt working
i typed a long profile out and pressed preview and it just vanished

Congrats SNOOP:)))

congrats

joshi tm:
thanks everyone

WellyWales: Crazy Snoopy... haha, finally :D!!! Congratulations!!!!

Fencer, its Wimbledon, but we have no Tennis Smiley
Found some HERE and HERE and HERE(nice Monkey ones there too ) could you borrow one or two do you think

So - there are 49,314 players listed on the player list - but 42,391 have been inactive as of June 20, 2007..... that leaves 6,923 active members in the last 4 days.

wetware: Great, thanks!

alanback: A little while ago on the Computers board, I mentioned a useful online utility for icon and image resizing. (It will let you preview an icon or image, so you can decide whether the result is worth saving/uploading, or needs additional work.)

Computers (wetware, 2007-06-11 07:13:35)

alanback: You have to have it a certain measurement before you upload it

the size is 50 pixels width x40 pixels in height. anything different than that will look distorted.

Is there a way to check how your icon is going to look before you upload it?  Mine always seem to be stretched vertically.

SEAWOLF2: i am sorry, i dont know webtv ... i thought all browsers had a feature top incrase text ...

my fault, please accept my apologies

(and of course noone would be asked to leave for something like this! :))

i wonder though, for non-vision-impaired (if i may call those people that way) .. i always though non-capitals are easier to read because those characters are more different than the others .. where capitals seem more similar to another (on a quick glance) .. at least for me capitals are harder to read when i read fast .. is that not the same for people who have bad vision ?
hmm .. maybe the size if more important than the differences .. small differences cant be seen when they are too small :)

i hope you can find a solution for the espionage pieces .. and will have fun

and i will be more tolerant for messages in capitals :)

Eriisa: ah! thanks .. i didnt know .. i have never seen webtv .. i dont think its available in the netherlands

Kili: Thank you. While I don't understand your explanation of auto-pass, I think I've figured out what it is (and if I'm right about what it is, shouldn't it be available in Ludo too?). My next question: where do I go to enable auto-pass? I can't find it in my Settings, which seems to me would be where it belongs...

Thanks...

* * * Never mind - I found it. The problem was that it's on the Game Filters page, which - if auto-pass is what I think it is - doesn't make any sense. But I found it. * * *

Can we take the General Chat discussion over to the http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=36 Discussion Board. Thanks!

TexasToest: HEAR HEAR!

SEAWOLF2:  SEAWOLF2: I'M VOTING FOR THE USE OF CAPS WHENEVER YOU MIGHT BE INVOLVED IN CONVERSATIONS.  THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE SPOKEN OUT BEFORE ME.  I'M EVEN VOTING FOR BOLD, LARGE AND ALL CAPS.  HOW EXTREME CAN THAT BE?????

in todays blog you asked why doesnt Firefox spell checker recognize the word "enlightment"...the reason being because the correct spelling is "enlightenment"

plaintiger: I am sure everything is explained in Fencers blogs

plaintiger:
1. Auto-pass mode (only available in gammons) means "automatic movement" in case of only movement.

2. Italic game in the waiting games section means not rated games.

See you.

Two questions:

1. what is auto-pass, and

2. why are some games italicized in the waiting games list?

These things really should be explained where they appear rather than just letting the user wonder...

Thanks...

Oceans Apart: hehehe one for you :)

srnity: I know it is awful isnt it HAHAHAHA
