Argomento: Re: Timeouts
Czuch: I also don't like it when people play with their vacation because they have "way too many games". If it is because of the few bad apples then I understand completely why it happened. Of course, I think I have too many with over 200. I try to keep it around 100 normally...

tinksbell: The thing that really gets to me, is that it is because of a few rotten apples that spoil things for the majority of players. My guess is that you had a legit reason to be doing what you did, but there are a few who use that as a tactic to purposely slow down the pace of their games?

Czuch: It seems I learned that the hard way, but I was trying to get a little more time since the past week has been too hectic for me to keep up with everything... I would still think that adding vacation would not take away time... I think I would have been happier if all that time had not been added last week with the server down...

Argomento: Re:
MadMonkey: I haven't seen anything strange with my clocks. I did notice that in quite a number of games my opponent timed out the last few days. But in all those cases, they are players who make it a habit to only move if they have a few hours left to move. The past hour, 3 games where I made the last move in June 29. And earlier this week, a handful of games against a famous player who was spending a fortune buying vacation days. So, *I*'m not complaining. If the side effect of a few hours of down time is that snails are timing out, I can only wish for more down time.

Fencer: Better not name it 3.0, all releases named 3.0 tend to have so many bugs in them they have to be followed up by a 3.1 soon after. Notable examples are MS word, MS windows, Firefox. If I were a release manager I'd treat a 3.0 as a 13th floor, something to be jumped over

And again, i come across a batch of games (only about 70 this time) all with 54 minutes before timout.

Hope connection speed is ok today

Argomento: Re: Timeouts
pauloaguia: I think the one that caused your problem is already fixed. This one is probably a consequence of the recent short downtime and BrainKing's automatic attempt to compensate the time loss.
Well, it's another thing to improve for the 3.0 version.
Anyway, it is always recommended to change vacation days after playing all games, not before.

tinksbell: Did you happen to change your vacation days?
I got that, some time ago when I removed a vacation day from the end of my vacations. Many games of mine (the non Fischer clock ones) went suddenly from 3 days left to -8 or -9 days left. Since that day was already marked as a vacation day I ended up not timing up on any of those games, but I got quite a scare.

tinksbell: Yesterday (or was it the day before) i got here to find i had 120 games ALL with the same time on and they were all timing out 35 minutes after i got here. I tried my best, but still had time outs

I presume this was something to do when the site was down the other day, i can not see any other way to end up with all those games having the same time

By the way, BrainKing works fine with Firefox 3.5. I would say it is even a little faster.

Argomento: Re:
beach: It's a side effect of the recovery system in case of temporarily disabled timeouts. It tries to balance the time left but does not count with weekend and vacation days.
It will be self-fixed when you make a move.

I think that I will announce the BrainKing Facebook page soon, because I want to use it for instant and quick messages of this kind.

2 days are now being added as of this morning last night all my 3 day games were over 4 days 23 which is what they should have been this morning I log on and all those games are 2 days 23 hrs so I lost time not gained time, talked to a couple of other people and they have the same thing, and all games should not have had the same amount of time this morning, they are all played at different times

anyone else notice the times for games moves changed on the games today, 3 day games that should read 4 days 23 hrs changed back to 2 days 23 hrs also when I make a move in these games it goes to 2 days 23 hrs, my weekend days are Sat and Sun so they should go to 4 days 23 hrs, something has to be wrong with the clocks, when I logged in this morning all my games were at the same time 2 days 23 hrs

Due to a broken optical link (somewhere in Prague) BrainKing is currently not accessible for the most users outside Czech Republic. Game timeouts have been stopped until the problem is solved.

Czuch: Well whatever, lol. I wasn't thinking it all the way out. Her point still was that games aren't played out all the way, if they don't need to be.

If you haven't read the whole thread, you will see where she is coming from, if you do.

I'm as American as any other American, and I have certainly resigned games that are mathematically impossible for me to win, and I feel comfortable saying that probably most others do as well. It was an inaccurate generalization on the part of tfra11.
