Sujet: Re: just a question
Gabriel Almeida: this discussion was about the dice games on brainking .. not about cheating per se .. no names were being called (i dont allow names being called on this board .. it only leads to lynching of specific players not to a discussion about brainking and its system

if someone can give a list of a player who won extraordinary many dice games by getting too many good rolls .. please ask about it on the board of that game type and ask the experts in that game if its possible to have these rolls this often .. it might be skill or not yet subject to the rule of large numbers .. but again .. try to leave out the name .. we dont want people to go after a specific person .. the only person to go after someone is fencer
(and by the way .. asking for bernice to be banned isnt inline with this board either :))

fencer : would it be possible to have a script running on someone elses computer which checks the connection to brainking.com, writes it into a log file, and mails it to you after about a week ?
(maybe a traceroute each time as well)
that way we could find out where the problem is, if there is a problem

for me the page doesnt want to load or very slow about twice a day, although today i didnt have a problem at all

i am online a couple of times a day, but not longer than 30 minutes each time

Sujet: peoples responsiblities on this site
its a persons own decision to accept a duty/responsibility on this site, if (s)he agrees to do a job which fencer asked her/him to do, then it should be fine with other people as well .... unless the job isnt done well

in case the job is being done bad, please send a message to the person her/himself first and if that doesnt work .. send it to a mod/glob/fencer

if someone else wants more reponsibilities please contact a mod (if (s)he wants to be the comod), or a glob or fencer

talking negative about someone doesnt help much, please try to keep a positive mood ;)

i love it that we will have more regular team tournaments, and am quite curious to see what the outcome of the team rankings will be now there will be more of them :)

i am happy for coan.net and tanein for having a job i think they like (although i dont envy them much myself ;)) and i am sure they will be doing a good job as they both already showed to be good tournament creators in the past

good luck with the job :)

tippyc: the xx will show the internal variable names instead of the real text

so the first few lines in the main menu on the left will show :
Global_GameHeader
Global_MainPageLink (28)
Global_NewGameLink
Global_WaitingGamesLink (2015)

while the 'send' button to send this message shows 'boards_send' and the button to send this edited message shows 'boards_editthispost'

the translators assign the real text to those keycodes .. the site shows the real text of the selected language to the user .. to make it more readable ;)

of course it is (maybe this is a bit too ask from some people though ;)) intended that the posters think thoroughly if a message is important enough before posting it here ;)

i think there might be too many boards already .. personally i am perfectly fine with a board per game type or as it is right now

people who liked the discussion about the rules of turkish checkers though didnt find it on the checkers board so i assumed they might want to have a separate board for discussions about game rules, as i think thats more important than the ordinary chats about the games on those boards, but i guess they dont need it either :)

i admit that gamerules of games on brainking are in a grey area wether they belong more on the game board itself or on the board for the specific game .. after all the posts about turkish checkers on all boards i had to direct it to the appropriate board and hope something like this wont happen again in the future :)

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 :)

srnity: i know what you mean, i thought about that as well, thats why i didnt post anything about it the first time.
he responded to pauloaugia though who didnt write in capital letters
in every browser you can configure the browser itself so that it will show letters bigger .. i guess thats what seawolf2 did
(that wont work for espionage pieces though as those are images and not letters)

i dont think seawolf2 meant it as screaming. i think though that there are people who see a post in all capitals and associate that with screaming.
seawolf2 probably doesnt know about that though, thats why i posted a note about it :0

Sujet: Re: QUESTION ABOUT ESPIONAGE GAMES - NEED HELP PLEASE!
SEAWOLF2: please dont use capital letters for your whole post .. its considered the same as screaming in real life conversations. non-capital letters are easier too read as they are more different than capital letters

i dont think there is a way to enlarge the pieces for espionage ... there are some pages in which you can select the size of the pieces in other games on this site .. but i cant seem to find espionage on those pages either .. sorry :(

Sujet: Re: vacation
ellieoop: there is a difference though :

suppose a game time outs the day after tomorrow, it is set as a automatic vacation day when the game tries to time out, it tries to time out again a day later, it is set as an automatic vacation day as well, then the day after that it tries to time out again.

now if you had set those 2 days (day after tomorrow and the day after that) as fixed vacation days and you would have moved today, then the time calculation would notice that those 2 days are vacation days and those 2 days are added to the time which wont make the game time out on the day after the day after the day after tomorrow, but 2 days later

so setting fixed vacation days really adds the time to the timeout .. while automatic vacation days first let the game use up their time, and then add a day when needed .. leaving it with 1 day max at the end after the automatic vacation days (where fixed vacation days might leave you with more days after those days)

sonar: right after you make your move, the dice are rolled for your next move .. if those dice will make you pass at your next move, then you will automatically pass after your opponent moved

Sujet: Re:
nabla: i stand corrected

this move was an autopass for me

i could have easily rolled some dice to escape ... but brainking already knew i would roll 6+5 and therefore made the autopass for me

it seems that the dice are rolled before i view the board (i guess they are rolled after my opponent made her move ?)

personally i like this as it leads to more autopasses than would be the case when the game would only autopass with a filled board

Hrqls 
Sujet: Re:
Family Man: as i undeerstand it, the version of autopass that is implemented here only passes the move automatically when there is no possible roll of the dice which will give a legal move

the dice dont have to rolled to determine this

as i understand, the dice on brainking are rolled when the player who is about to make the move goes to the game page/board (so its not rolled straight after the opponent made the move)

i think fencer posted something like that before .. most sites use prerolled dice (or even have a whole series of rolls rolled in advance already) .. but brainking rolls the dice when the person who is about to move opens the gameboard

(personally i dont think it makes any difference though as long as the random generator is ok)

Sujet: Re: Vacation days
TarantinoFan: thanks for editing your post :)

my opinion is that if a person moves within the time limits of a game .. then tere are no problems ..

sometimes some moves can be made easily within seconds while at work (i do that with backgammon) but not with other types (i do that with line and chess games)

but as long as they are within the time limit there shouldnt be a problem .. its sad for pawns though (and for non pawns as well) .. so if a person asks another person to move whenever possible .. it would be quite polite to make moves in those games first and whenever possible

(i do that in some games because my opponent asked me)

its up to the players while joining tournaments/games and to the opponents by being polite and fair ... the system of brainking can do little about that (it already offers games without vacation days and even without weekend days :))

Sujet: Vacation days
vacation days are there for people to use if they need them ... some people move first in the 'easier' games (like ludo), and then in games which require more thinking (like chess) .. so you will see more people use vacation days for games like chess than they will use them for games like ludo

the problem with vacation days is that someone can use them all up before the end of the year .. and then simply renew his/her membership to get a new stock .. for some people the price of a membership isnt a problem to pay several times a year and so they can have a LOT of vacation days
