chattytea: Who said anything about us complaining about the US, we were joking DOH!!

DanDanDan: Yes I remmeber those days well.... so I really cant say anything now... its great ..

and yes wellywales, when the US wakes up.. it does slow down.. always has! but i love my US friends , so don't complain

wellywales:

Princess Alison:

Rose: remember the days when we had access problems all the time! ;) BK has come a long way! :)

My mother used to tell me I was slower than molasses in January. I didn't even know what molasses was until I saw my dad put the black stuff on bread and gobble it down. yuck

DanDanDan: Can't sleep at night let alone the day

DanDanDan:

wellywales: LMFAO

wellywales: I take a nap in the afternoon if that helps. ;)

DanDanDan: Some folks use the term bottle neck. When the net gets laggy cuz so many folks are online at the same time. When I came on here earlier today it was slow as molasses in January going uphill but better now. Sundays are always the worst (slowest) times online

DanDanDan: We have a lot of trouble in the UK when the US wakes up, can't you have a lie in for a change

chattytea: good point. I forget that part. :)

wellywales: sorry US. I've had this problem myself when others were having no trouble. I don't understand the internet well enough but I think where we originate from matters in the connection. Kinda like driving to a certain city on a certain route and it's congested. Others taking a different route go the speed limit. ;)

Czuch Chuckers:

Maybe some of you from the US were still in bed when we had the problems?? as it was this morning our time... about 11am.. so would of been anywhere from 3am onwards your time :)

wellywales:
Dan is in the USA ( I think )

chattytea: No problems at all here in the US... even with especially problematic webtv. :)

DanDanDan: sorry But where is here? the site must have been down this morning UK time for about an hour as there was only 30 people on line when I managed to get connected, it is getting very frustrating

I too have had problems accessing the site at times today... I am in the UK.
But i just keep trying :)

wellywales: I'm not having that problem here. It's probably not a BK problem but originates elsewhere.

Marfitalu: The site just keeps locking up all the time, I know it is happening else where in the UK, I have to go and play on IYT,

There is some malfunction regarding losing access to it occasionally, that i noticed too.....

Is there problems with the BK site today or just us in the UK

Matarilevich: Yes, you are right. Can you post it to the Bug Tracker please?

Princess Alison: Because there is an overlap of games between the pages of "waiting games".

Matarilevich: why do u think that

I think there is some problem with the page of "waiting games"

tonyh:
U want some FAST games?
Invite me to something. I'm here most the day LOL

tonyh: When a game is set up, the player can decide the time for each move I.E 1 hour, 3 days etc etc.

Is it just me - or are players taking longer over their moves. Does Fencer have any stats on the speed of play?

Solo:
he was kidding
---
its a joke son,as foghorn leghorn used to say.
we should take life seriously,but not take ourselves too seriously.
being able to laugh at ourselves is a noble trait.
besides,I truly believe that the day we cant laugh at life & roll with the punchers,then it has truly defeated us.

<>Solo> I am the big bad one who takes all the time to think about the next move when she is behind... And that is not in backgammon:)

Right, as moderator, you really HAVE to be able to see all the posts..

Fencer: ah, okay...but when posts are greyed out they're hidden from everyone else?

i'm a mod on a board and i want to hide a particular user from my own view without hiding Her from anyone else's. but i guess i can't do that for the reason You gave? *sigh*...

Solo: what do you consider losing, pip count?

harley: He probably wanted to post in to the Portuguese version of BrainKing.com discussion board.

BrainKing "GLICH"

When I move in backgammon (if I am losing) the opponent moves show up immediately. "If I am winning it takes days for their moves to show up."

Is this glitch only in Backgammon? :)

Andre Faria: Whats this about Andre?

AtomicGuy: But you can enter a tournament as a pawn. Just go to the Tournaments section and select one.

As a pawn you can enter only one at a time and you cannot create them but you can still have some of the fun ;)

How to start a tournament?

Marfitalu: I clicked on the link again & the game pictures shown up. I gave worrying about certain things anyway LOL

Marfitalu: Try Shift+F5.. I did that and got them to show up!

Those show up fine for me!

Marfitalu: all brokem images for me too. So it isnt you going crazy! lol

Marfitalu: Your Welcome! I can't see the pictures either but I think it is for the explanation to the rules of the game tho..

Marfitalu: I clicked on the game rules & seen the game pictures except for the pond games

AbigailII: Sorry to see you leave & hopefully you'll change your mind..I have posted topics on boards at times w/o thinking which board I was suppose to post on....I did leave for quite awhile due to computer & other players problems & just started playing here again. Sure did miss playing here. All moderators has a job which is tough & surely fair to all. If everyone left due to 1 problem or another, there wouldn't be a so-called "safe" site on the web which everyone gets along w/ each other. Please re-consider & enjoy playing the games. Thanks for reading
