Constellation36: It's very simple to do.Delete all your games you don't like.Take a loss because it's only a game.Play games & tournaments that have a RED DOT with # of days :)
Anybody that has that is here to play & have fun:))

pauloaguia: The number of games a person has says little about his/her ability to play.
And where did i mention that?

My point is i find having 900 games running( Good lord!) an exaggeration. If you make 5 days for each move in every single game then the opponent suffers. But you suffer also as you are not really enjoying the games as you become a part of a hunting. You hunt making moves.
This site is supposed to be a fun site where players play for fun mainly and fun disappears if you play against a turtle that moves every sun's eclipse.

It's not a money tournament where players play for money so they have to make serious decisions about so time control is one, two, 5 or more days or even a month. I'm a professional Chess player and have played correspondence also but that was different as you only have to play some games and it is for rating i.e money!

I'm not saying they should play crappy moves here because it's for fun, but i'm saying that i think people lose the point of all this.

Constellation36: And why some players have more than 100-200 started games at a certain time? I mean if they can't keep up with so many games they should not play them and not play like snails.

The number of games a person has says little about his/her ability to play.
I used to have almost 900 games running at one time. Every day I brought my waiting games list down to 0. Many of the games I didn't play every day, though, because my opponents weren't fast enough. Others I played over a dozen moves a day, because my opponent moved as soon as I did.
If I waited for those games to finish before starting new ones, I'd still be waiting for those that aren't that fast to play...
Just to say that having 100-200 games, doesn't mean much per se...

Thanks. Sounds like a logical rule.
I hope my opponent is not insulted by deleting this game but i can't stand waiting one hundred days for him to play even the starting move!

Constellation36: I think you can only delete the game if you have played less than 4 moves but dont quote on that lol.

What is Delete Game for?
I suspect it is for deleting the current game you play but why anyone is allowed to do that? I mean if someone sees that he is losing, is he allowed to delete the game or what?

I'm playing against a player with someone that has some 500 started games to play(LOL!) and he is moving slower than a turtle. In fact it is 4 days now that he hasn't moved at all in his first move. This is a torture and i don't like that kind of games.
I want to delete the game and i have this option. If i do this what are the consequences?

Rose: LOL :)))

"GERRY": LOL the secret is out...............

How come the site works alot faster when you become a rook?

Foxy Lady:

Artful Dodger: No comment.

Foxy Lady:  My reputation does that to me.  

Artful Dodger: Oh i thought you were j/k/

Foxy Lady:  what did I say?    I'm serious.  I think there's a bug and now all rook (black or white) can make three.  I wanna be special.

Artful Dodger:

Can White Rooks make three fellowships?

What do you do w/ the boards & walls on your profile? Something new like alot of things since I came back LOL

Pedro Martínez: thank you (I think) LOL

Bernice: Central European Time :)

coan.net: I have my time set at my local time, and I would appreciate it if someone could please tell me an answer.....my time or Czech time

Brian1971: Fencer said in the BrainKing.info site back in November that he has been working on a "multiplayer card game" - and the good guess would be the chips would be used for that.

I noticed in our profile chips. I have 1000 of them. What are they for??

Bernice: That's a good question. I know for myself, I have the BrainKing time set to Czech time - so I know that for example, in about 5 minutes from this post - Sunday will start. (where as it will be 5pm Saturday for myself) [If I need to know what time it is for real, it is easy enough to look at the wall]

Even though this does not answer your question - but can be used as a suggestion so questions like this won't matter.

when I set my weekends is that MY time or Czech time.....it is just that there is a cyclone coming and rather than take holidays I changed my weekend to monday and tuesday MY time hopefully, seeing as it is Sunday already here

fakar10: they're very good with aioli, barbecue, guacamole or even simple mayonnaise. If you're in an exotic mood you can also try hummus or nam pla. I'd avoid Muhammara, unless you have an extra strong stomach, or a supply of Alka selzer nearby at hand. I hear they've invented some new form of instant diet pills, they might come in handy later in the evening.

fakar10: im guessing they for the new card game

Total chips: 1000
(in my profile)

What are they for?

nbjess: on the settings page which is on the left side of your screen, the check box is near the bottom of the page on the left side, you may want to go to your profile page first and double check your e--mail address

I am not getting notified by email that a game is here..how do I change my settings?

ScarletRose: Yes

Bernice:  So if you unblock him.. do the messages come back?

rod03801: thank you...that explains it....yes I have him blocked because he posted my address etc in a f/ship about 12 months ago.

it is amazing what you can find out on the net ;(

rod03801: And you seem to be right. :)

Bernice: If it is someone you now have blocked, old messages you already got from them will appear empty, I believe. May not be it, but it's a thought.

I have your message about it being deleted, checked it and it is still there..so dont know what ha[ppened......no worries and thanks for you help.

Bernice: I don't think so. We can try it if you want though.

Pedro Martínez: hmmmmmmmmmm.....strange LOL....

I wonder if the person that sent the message deleted it from his outbox would that cause the "blank"

Bernice: I've just checked my messages (going as back as 2004) and they're all there, unchanged, "uncleaned", "unblanked".

ScarletRose: in my inbox :(....not that it really matters but would like to know if it cleans the message up why cant it delete the whole thing LOL

Bernice:  Are these messages you have saved into a file??? or.. are they messages in your IN box? I looked at some that I had saved into separate folders and they are still showing.. I keep my In Box tidy so don't have any old ones in there to compare..

can someone please tell me why it is when I go into messages from about 12 months ago they are blank?

and if it is the system deleting the message why dont they delete the whole thing?

I probably havent worded the 2nd Q correctly but .....
