Papa: There is. It's BK since the move there are bugs I think. The pic is fine no need for you to see it.

Czuch:

heavenlyemma: perhaps but I was just able to upload a pic fine so something is amiss

Papa: I'll try it again.

Papa: It's working now I got this when I changed my photo which I didn't get before.

heavenlyemma:

Papa: Is that a icon pic of yourself when you was a lad?

Thankyou Fencer

heavenlyemma:

Czuch: Thankyou

Is everyone getting problems like me? My tournament wins are not being added on and tonight the site is unusable for playing - using IE and Firefox, the picture of the game boards is not complete

ruby2shoes: Yes, you're not the only one!

at least I do not feel so alone now

heavenlyemma: Yeah, way back when I had hair.

blind dice poker is very interesting. So is blind maharajah chess. This makes for a fun night.

I can't relax playing my games tonight so instead I'm spending money on Ebay..2nd favorite thing to do on the net...it's getting expensive now though...lol

im guessing im not the only one the games wont load for, judging by the other posts. actually, none of the bk pages are loading completely right now. the pictures arent loading. i can only see wetware's avatar, none of the other pictures EDIT: except for smileys

tippyc: hey, its working now

MsDelete: No relaxing after work here either...(had already done my Ebay shopping )...this site never stops surprising me :(

Viking's interview has just been forwarded to Fencer for him to post it on the site. So, I reccon you can all read it very soon...

Also, don't forget to send me your questions for Bubbles Pbarb2 . The clock is ticking...

and you can also suggest who should be interviewed next

pauloaguia:
wow so fast

pauloaguia: Come on Vikes.... your making everyone else look bad... couldnt you at least pretended you had better things to do than work on your interview night and day?

Papa: Cute kid, I might look through my photo albums and show you me when I was a kid

How does one retrieve their lost message.. I typed in a post earlier and waited for it to post.. only to get an error page.. this has happened several times and it is getting rather frustrating.. argghhh!!

ScarletRose: go back to the page again and, IF a post was saved, it should display a link by the text box to retrieve the post.
I think draft posts are saved every 30 or 60 seconds, so you may or may not have a saved post...

Czuch: 10 days wasn't long enough?

Vikings: you must have not had any tough ones from politically biased pundants?

or ill? I have sent him several messages but have had no replies. Has anyone any knowledge why he is not answering please?

ruby2shoes: Probably sleeping - it's the middle of the night where he lives (I think)

no - that is not the right answer - lol - has anyone seen him in the last week?

ruby2shoes: he was here today!

Czuch: Kinda ironic that you would say that

why hasnt he answered my messages then - how do I get through to him?

ruby2shoes: keep trying, but unless you have a blank cheque in one hand you will probably get ignored HAHAHAHA

now that has made me smile - thanks for that

Many of my available DNS servers have had periodic trouble resolving brainking.com.  The problem seems intermittent and worse on some servers than on others.  (for examples I have had only a few issues with my DNS providers at the office but my home ISP can almost never resolve it). 

I have also noticed that many of my regular reliable opponents have started to time out which makes me wonder if they are having trouble accessing the site too.  (I'm sure to anyone that doesn't know otherwise, it would appear that the site is down and they may think timeouts have been suspended)

Currently I am accessing the site directly via the server ip address. (89.187.130.22)

Anyone else having this problem?

James

pauloaguia: Hmm.. I have always seen the red line that comes up to say it has saved the infor.. but, I don't believe I have yet seen a link.. Am I supposed to ticker something on the settings page perhaps?

Wooohoooo something new in Fellowships, Random Teams

Fencer, did you know that it will not let you create Tournaments from the drop box in the new Random Teams.
Do not know if its a bug, or you have not coded it yet

MadMonkey: It's a side effect of something. Not purposefully.

MadMonkey: where??

jryden:  It happens frequently that I cannot access the site for brief periods, and it always has, but nothing that would interfere with making timely moves in my games.  But then, I don't generally play games with time limits more restrictive than 2 days/regular weekends/regular vacations.

ScarletRose: The only thing in settings is to activate AutoSave, I think.
If it tells you it's being saved, it should allow you to restore it if you're gone from the page without posting...

Give it a go - start typing something, wait for the "Saved" message to appear and then go to another page without posting. Then come back to the page you typed the message in - it should display the "restore message" option...

alanback: Yeah, I have had these problems too. But this is different. The site is up, I can access with the IP address. I just can't resolve brainking.com. Did the IP address change during the recent maintenance. Perhaps not all DNS servers were correctly updated with change.

jryden:My friend MightyOrion is having that same problem ( can not get to the site at all/be able to log in)..... his ISP is through ATT & he called them today , they say it is a Brainking problem & is not a problem on thier end ...... he has been calling me 2 or 3 times a day to see if the site is up or down .... any ideas how to fix this for him?..... I hope Fencer is awhere that there are people that can not get onto the site .... let alone be able to log in ...... he can not even email this problem  because he can not get on the site  or even the blog site . I hope this problem gets resolved soon this is a great site & I would hate to see people lose faith in the service here ..... there are great people here & great fun for all!

Hey Fencer...why dont you send an email to ebay and ask for help. Ebay works all the time, even the images :)

Dear Fencer,

Looks like the image server is down, since I and every other player can't play any games, please could you suspend all the games until the server is running?
