Andersp: If you are talking about Snoopy, they are leaving the site for awhile and just letting their games time out. Even though that will add some finished games to their stats, he is not starting any new so people should be able to "pass" them soon enough

Andersp: If a resigned game didn't count... then I would simply resign any that I am bound to lose... :-)

It should count, and I doubt it will ever change.

Should a resigned game really counts as a finished game?

MadMonkey: last week the timeouts were turned on again and the timesof the game have been reset .. so it was like each opponnent made a move in each game at the same time .. if they werent online since then and the timeout per move were the same for those games then the timeout messages would arrive at the same time as well

Did something happen this morning to the site

I have 11 time out messages in my inbox from 5 different opponents in the space of 2 minutes about 06.10

(EDIT)

Maybe not, one was here today, but the others have not been on in a while

Is auto save meant to work when replying using the "box" option?

I dont know how many times I have been in the middle of a long reply and the dog or whatever accidentally hits my mouse and changes pages on me and I can never figure out how to get that post back

, its maddening

Sujet: Re:

danheg: That wasn't a silly question, I think that Atomic and Extinction Chess are usually implemented in a way that you can't castle under or through check.

Nevertheless, the rules are much simpler to state when saying "no check or checkmate", hence probably the version that we are playing here (which does hurt my eye a little, but that is no big deal IMHO).

I am currently playing an atomic chess game with cd power and put him in check with my knight. He then CASTLES. I thought castling while in check is illegal according to the rules of chess. Is this a bug in the atomic chess program?

Sujet: Game list organizer

I've tried to find it using the search function on this board, but was unsuccessful...
I somehow messed up the way the games appear on my game list. I want the first games on the list to be the ones with the least time left. I think I may have clicked on the "games" title, with the little green arrow next to it, by accident. When I clicked it on again, it didn't correct the problem. I went to "settings" and changed the choice from ascending to descending and back again, and again clicking on the "games" title on the game list. Nothing seems to work the way I hoped... can someone help me please? Thanks!

Sujet: Re:

pauloaguia: I know

BUT i would like to know how Fencer is going to implement the site ones as there are a few ways to do it as you sort of mention in you second piece to Fencer.
We can not add them to Stairs already created for some reason, and when we do create them what games do we include, but i guess thats our choice, will be hard actually to please everyone. I think by Random section will be best.

Sujet: Re:

MadMonkey: You can already create RandomStairs. Just go to your random Team and click the Create new Stairs link.

Fencer: I was wondering - on already existing Stairs I can add games that aren't in those Stairs yet. I can't, however, add a RandomGame to an existing Stairs. Is this intentional or you just forgot?

21. Novembre 2007, 12:06:35

Fencer: Are you going to set Random Stairs for the site ?

Just if you do i want to see how you are going to go about it so i can copy in the Madhouse (like to keep things the same)

I know we can choose how to set them, either by including all games, some of them, or maybe even by setting Random sections (Gammons, Chess etc...).
Be interesting to see how you do it (if you do)

Sujet: Sorry for the bother

My video card on my computer went out lsat weekend, and I've pressed an old Win98 computer with 56k RAM into service. It's definitely NOT cutting edge, I don't think it's cutting anything except the ch......never mind. My machine sits in the corner waiting for my next check to come. I had been to my profile untold number of times this week looking for that link. It was NOT there.

When you wrote that the change password WAS still there, I was going to copy and paste the top of my profile page to paste in here and show you what was on the top of the page., Low and behold, it was there, but it was in camouflage. white on white. When I highlighted it, it showed up. Thanks rod, I learn something every day.

Sujet: Re: Holiday in US

coan.net: Auto vacation works well, and I suspect most don't really care if they lose a few games. Otherwise it's setting up the possibility if the site goes down again for a few days we who are not having a national holiday to have to wait yonks.

coan.net

Sujet: Re: Holiday in US

Jules: No, you misunderstood - I'm not asking for holidays to be placed back on the site - what I was saying was because of the site being down, there is a good possibility that players did not get a chance to catch up their games, or set vacation days to cover the days they will be gone since the site was down - and that in the US, there is a big holiday which many leave town. (one of the biggest travel weeks of the year in the US) So I'm not asking for holidays to be added back to the site, I just want to make sure that no one times out on games because of the site being down. The site being down should not be a reason anyone should lose a game in my opinion.
