Why does a game not time out when all vacation days are used up,the game timed out at 11 minutes after 7 and it is now 11 minutes after 10 and has not timed out !

Mélusine: Most chess, checkers and gammon type games work fine (except for loop chess, where you can't reuse captured pieces because you can't see them, and maybe Xiangqi and Shogi, not sure).

Most other games don't work, but as stated, any phone browser should work fine.

Thank you for your answers.

Mélusine: the brainking app for android doesnt support all game types as far as i remember .. you can play some games with it, and that works quite well

for the other games o0n brainking you have to use your phone browser, which works ok as well

Mélusine: I dont use the app. It works fine on my phone without it.

Mélusine: It plays fine on my android.  All the same games.

Does someone play with the application Brainking on Android ? I don't find it on Apple. Is it better ? Do you find the same games ?
Question to Fencer : Will the application replace this site in the future ?

Carnie: Congratulations, but your opponent could have tried something like 171.- K4b3 winning after 172. Kc1 with any king to c2 or after 172. Ka1 with any king to b2 ;-)

Carnie: Try requesting a draw again

Carnie: You could be waiting until the end of Brainking for that to happen.

Aganju: Is it automatic after so many moves? I thought in chess variants you had to request for a draw and your opponent had to agree.

evertVB: looking at your link it says in RED that this game was a DRAW>

evertVB: it is automatically a draw. Check the game.

I've had the same position for 3 times. Does brainking.com show a Claim draw button?

Grand Chess (evertVB vs. Bugaevsky_S)

We do have a board here dedicated to other game sites:

http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=54

In that board, I've posted links to some other turn-based game sites - as more are suggested, I will update the list.

Brian1971:
Brainking have a bigger variation of games though.

The good side/ is you can play at bugcafe for cheap. Try a month for just 5 USA dollars, 3 months for 10.50 or upto a year for $30. That is cheaper than brainking.

yurkin: You are looking at the bad side... look at the good side... Fencer is editing & coding the site! YEA! :-)

The bug icon is gone, as is the page for bug reports. The end is near :x well, I hope it's not though.

JerNYC: really???? never heard of that :)

JerNYC: As he owns the site I think he can put what photographs he likes. He could put one from when he was a baby.

furbster: How old is that picture of himself that he uses on the site? I don't think it has ever changed since I have been on here. You're only allowed to use old pictures of oneself on a dating profile. Everywhere else must be recent. lol :P

Already posted on the interview page, but it case people don't see it there this may be of interest.
Fencer agreed to be interviewed again, but the system doesn't allow the same person to be interviewed twice so the username Filip was created.

rabbitoid: one more meaningless prize tournament. Hope the turtles are happy with themselves....

alexlee: I also mean in other tournaments too.

alexlee: Alive - hmm, well anyway they wake up about once a week or two to make a move

crosseyed: They will be voided out when round 2 starts but the 2 players in round 1 still playing are very much alive

rabbitoid: If people have not used this site for years for whatever reason, and were playing in a tournament they should be automatically void.

rabbitoid: 5 of the winners are no longer in brainking. Some of them, at some years... :)

Bernice: At least it advanced to round 2... check Play Cloning Gammon for a prize.
10 years (today!) in round 1. Three cheers for the great turtles who have made this achievement possible!

Clandestine 1: and it is only on Round 2....so would have a hell of a long way to go....Some of those
people could be dead by now. and looking back at some of the winners to go to the next round...I only checked the first 6 or 7 and one hasnt been on this site since 2009, so this could go til 3009 hahahahaha

Carnie: some tournaments can last for years on here LOL

It is so quiet at brainking the last couple of days. Either people are in mourning over the brainking news or people are actually playing their games and finishing tournaments so they are completed before the end.

Bwild: heheheh

Anyone have a lifetime membership they want to sell lol

ellieoop: Thank you ellieoop:( it was devastating as she was only 50 years old , but for some of us life does go on and we have to make sure we go along with it ;) It kills me daily to think of her, but she is in a better place....

Just piggybacking on ellieoop's endorsement, Goldtoken is an excellent site with a committed owner and an active programmer who consistently add new games and update the site's features. The memberships are reasonable and they frequently give out short term free membership trials as well as free upgrades to a higher membership level. Yes, they are overly involved with the discussion boards and I have had my own battles with them over it, but that should not dissuade anyone from playing games there. They have so many variants of so many games, I don't know of another site that offers that much variety. They finally added Connect Six which is great and if they ever implement Frog Finder, I'll never need to go anywhere else again. If anyone needs help over there, you can message me as well. I'm JerNYC on there, too.

Bernice: I'm so sorry for your loss.
she has always cared about her players.. she constantly tries to better the site.

Carnie: Some will and some won't. However there is no guarantee that will as Fencer will no longer be handling the operation of the site. Even if it goes on without supervision from someone, if a problem arises there will be no one to turn to fix it.

Roberto Silva: Yes it does, before christmas the ten membership payment were spread over 2 months.
