Fencer: Gammon games, ludo, chess. Maybe other games that are quite popular on the site.

Fencer: Backgammon, cloning, ludo, hyper,,,,,,,,,that'll do me just fine

I want to create 21 team tournaments tomorrow.
But I don't know which games I should choose.
Any ideas?

BIG BAD WOLF: Having vacation days on multi-player games, especially ones that are really large, cannot possibly work. Since we all take vacations at different times, a 3 or 4 days per move time control would turn into a week and a half to two weeks time control. So I think the best option is simply not to use autofinish in these.

joshi tm: As I have said many times, I am not at home yet, so there will be no changes until I come back. When you have looked at your profile, you have surely noticed that public holidays are still valid, so you have 45 days in fact and there is no point to shout at me.

rabbitoid: True sorry for that.

joshi tm: hey, let the man wake up from his hangover :)

Fencer: As you have promised, public holidays aren't there anymore so you would give us 5 extra vacation days. When I look at my profile I see that there are 40 days left not 45!

BerniceC: Hey you doing a BBQ over there,while we freeze over here?

BIG BAD WOLF: 

BIG BAD WOLF: awwwww dats cute :)

I still have 50 minutes to go.

Happy New Year

Fencer: Happy New Year.

Fencer:
another 5 mins to go for us over here Fencer but hey????/


happy new year & thanks for giving us a great site!!!!

All right, since we already have 2007 here, the action is over and I would like to thank everyone who supported us by taking advantage of it.
Back to my champagne.

MadMonkey: well looks like your to late monkey boy its finished

does the setting for parameters when creating a game work?... I remember something about this a few months back, and then it didn't work as I recall.... does it work now? I really don't care to start a game in waiting and then have unrated players or someone not in my BKR range accept them...

Czuch Czuckers: That was clever of me, i didnt even mean to LOL

Must be this Pepsi stuff

MadMonkey: Wow, thats good stuff.. im seeing double!!!

Fencer: How about a loan ??? lets say hmmmmmmmm 300 EUR LOL

Fencer: How about a loan ??? lets say hmmmmmmmm 300 EUR LOL

Fencer: Take a nice sip of your champagne and then hit the black rook button beside my name....

10 now!

20 minutes left.

Fencer: Im sure you will do a great job ...use your own brain, too many 'good advices" only makes you confused

MadMonkey: I think multi-player (3+) games would be a great addition to this site. At GT, out of my 150 games there - now over 1/2 are multiplayer games - they make some games much better.

I'm not sure how much work it would be - but now that Fencer is looking at autopass, maybe he can start looking at multi-player games also.

Even though the one suggestion I would make is PLEASE make separate ratings for 2 player & 3+ player games. With multi-player games, the chances of losing raises and brings down most all ratings. Plus for many games, it changes the way you play enough that it is basically different games you are playing.

BIG BAD WOLF: I understand what you say, but i think its about time we started looking at the future.
As Mousetrap says, thats the only good thing about Goldtoken, multi-player games. Rather than keep adding more & more 2 player games, why not start to think at least about up to 4 player ones. Yahtzee is a great example of a game that is alot better with more than 2 players.

We already have games here which are much better with 3 or 4 players (Ataxx & Assimilation). I am not a programmer, but surely to start writing/coding the games now for more than 2 players would be better than having to re-code ALL the games in say a year or so.

Also there is the other way, single player games as well. Mastermind, is a great example when you are playing a computer.

BIG BAD WOLF: Crumbs! It was just my money they wanted after all LOL!

Mousetrap: Well great! If you get run over by a bus, then you don't need the money anyway - spend it at BrainKing for all your on-line friends to enjoy!

BIG BAD WOLF: Well yes but I might have got run over by a bus in five years too!

furbster: LOL!
I can,t help it!

Mousetrap: Well if he were to ever sell, i would think the current memberships would be part of the sell. So currently a black rook is worth 5 years of rook membership - so if you think you will still be playing of the site in 5 years, then it is a good deal.

MadMonkey: The only problem with that is lets say i'm going to take a 5 day vacation - ponds are about the only non-vacation games I will play. Plus I always try to join 4 day+ ponds. Which if I move on day one of a pond, then the last day of the next move - it is really 8 days (giving me enough time for vacations). If the ponds started to automatically go when all moves done, then some sort of vacation would then need to be applied to the ponds also. (in my opinion)

Mousetrap: If people thought like that nobody would ever buy anything.

MadMonkey: Multi player games would be great! That was the only and I mean only lol good thing about GT.

Gr☺uch☺: I have been thinking about it but what happens if Fencher decides to sell or goes bankrupt. So many firms are going bump at the moment and it is still a lot of money all at once.

furbster: Actually, i have had a thought (Feature Request as well)

If Fencer used similar code to the way Ponds work, we could have huge games, that would be amazing fun.

Obviously without losing a player, but once everyone has taken there move we go on to the next round, i like that.

MadMonkey: yeh always fun when there are more players :o)

furbster: I wonder if Fencer will make it more than 2 player though, much more fun with 4+

heavenlyemma: Cool, i'll try to remember and invite you to a couple of games when it comes out. See how quickly you beat me, i can't remember half of what to do lol.

It's the last day!  Don't miss out.  If you're thinking about it, just do it!

BTW, there's a black rook in the registry just waiting for a partner! 

furbster: Yes it is.

Andersp:  

Fencer: Time for that o so long wanted Intenational Checkers, and Ataxx 9x9.

Andersp: Yes sir, as you wish sir, just when I am back at home sir. And thanks.
