Asunto: Re: Why do I time out on a weekend?

Fencer: My humble hope was, if I choose fixed weekend it would be fixed, for me. Sorry that my inferior comprehension still falls to the illusion things here are what they seem to be. Thank you for setting right.

Asunto: Re: very slow

BerniceC: Sometimes the site seems stuck or very slow to load. What I do is to click on the stop button in the menu bar, and then try to load it again. This often helps.

Bry: It's a "fixed weekend" tourney, so changing weekend days will not help.

Asunto: Re: Why do I time out on a weekend?

Tiyulee: Change your weekend days to Frdiay and Saturday..... (If pawns can change them,....) and also switch your "Auto Vacation" on (if pawn have that....)

p.s. not been a pawn for a long time so might be wrong....

Asunto: Re: Why do I time out on a weekend?

Tiyulee: Your weekend is not our weekend. I guess Singapore is in a different time zone, BrainKing uses GMT+01:00.

Fencer: Well, it will probably be kinda problematic, because Hebrew is read from right to left, and this can really put you through hell if your computer can't handle this. Besides, it's tonnes of work.

I finally confirmed that he's the genius, I stupid and, it's just a stupid game. :D As I wrote you,
a helpful pente insider confirmed your observation, of no sytematic cheat (still incorrect behaviour)
as he also refuted my concerns about software usage of a certain czech player, burnt I got shy to quick

Asunto: Drawn game

Fencer When I have drawn a game in stairs on the Standard game of Backgammon (2 games) it only shows one game in the Achives as drawn. the first game is not shown.

Asunto: Re: Membership

Fencer: I was trying to use the MoneyBookers with the same credit card I always paid Brain King with.
It would not let me pay because I have a new email address,the same credit card and I did not know my password.
After I tried about 7 times I noticed where you pay with a credit card right below that with PayPal.
Now I know what to do in 6 months from now

29. Noviembre 2005, 20:54:30

Asunto: Re: Membership

SunFire: Do you have a PayPal account or did you use your credit card only?

Yes moneybookers sucks. They charged me 2.56 € for nothing. Then I used Paypal to subscribe BK...

Asunto: Re: Membership

SunFire: I would like to remove MoneyBookers completely because I am very dissatisfied with their service but I have no other choice to accept credit cards now. Try PayPal instead.

28. Noviembre 2005, 20:45:11

Didn't mean to open a can of worms. I do a lot of looking around on the site when I have nothing else to do!!

28. Noviembre 2005, 20:41:58

Ahh, I see what you mean. They were paying members at the time, and Fencer hasn't gotten around to updating the list.

28. Noviembre 2005, 20:32:16

Asunto: Re: Customer Service

Eriisa:Even pawns or someone that hasn't been online in like months. One that is on there isn't even a member here anymore. I was just nosing around and was curious about it. Thanks for your reply!

28. Noviembre 2005, 20:13:23

Asunto: Re: Expired memberships

Fencer: I kind of like that idea of the automatic forfeit of all but the 20 oldest games.

And I think your '10% a day' idea would give incentive to renew, when they see the BKR start to drop! LOL

28. Noviembre 2005, 20:10:25

Asunto: Customer Service

Just a question as I am curious. What are the requirements to be a member of customer service?

28. Noviembre 2005, 19:26:28

Bry

Asunto: Re: Expired memberships

Fencer: Perhaps 14 days after the expiry of the membership, all game times for games already started when they were a mamber, revert to, say "1 day".

This way, if a Pawn who has previously supported the site, can still continue the games, but will be under pressure by way of time to finish them, and if they time-out, it will naturally thin the number of games out anyway.

In addition, the user will be able to "choose" games to play every day if moving in them all is not possible - rather than have games forfeited for them.

wellywales: She gets the message... but why offer a draw? Her automatic vacation days are out. If she doesn't move till the next timeout, she will loose the game.
Anyway, it won't automatically release you from that tournament. Not until all the games in that section are finished.

Now, if you PM Fencer and ask him nicelly, maybe he'll get you out of it.

(I think you have to finish all the games, though)
