Fencer: Oh. I don't recall seeing any choices, there. (That doesn't mean there wasn't any, lol) I just did what I have always done, entered my log in information when taken to PayPal, and click Pay. I will have to look into it further the next time I use it.

I wonder why it never used to be a problem for me. Thank you for pointing that out.

an ataxx variant played with a choice of 2 or 3 opponents.

rod03801: It is still instant but only when you pay with your PayPal balance or a credit card. You used the "eCheck" option (bank transfer) which usually takes up to 5 working days to clear.

Charles Martel: I don't know. I don't use it for much. But for a little while now, nothing has been instant when I have used it. I also used it to pay for membership at another website (in USA) and it was a few days before they received the payment as well. (And this was at least a couple months ago). And as I mentioned, I bought brains here a couple months back, and I think it was almost a week before Fencer received it.

I have wondered if it is somehow that I have my account there set up in such a way that causes it to take longer. I have used it for years though, and it seems as though it always used to be INSTANT. (Even when buying brains/memberships here at BK)

I do remember that when I bought another year this weekend (to take advantage of the "red dot") that I got a message here on the site that it produced a bad code from PayPal(or some such words) but that it isn't a problem.

It doesn't bother me so much. As long as it goes through eventually. I just wanted to warn people not to leave their payment until the last moment, if they were taking advantage of the Birthday action.

rod03801: I think something is going on with PAYPAL in general as I noticed other sites that normally use it are having issues

(V): I have the same problem with "The Pit Of Hell" bugs??

Fencer... what is it with the fav boards? I have 3 for NO HOLES BARRED, and only one takes me to the fellowship the other two just take me to the discussion boards list.

rod03801: I think it works different from each country I got the red dot this morning, and paid, and it went through immediately for me and showed up on my acct within 5 minutes

rod03801: Thank you very much. I will not leave it untill the last minute then. I will make sure I give myself a week or so.

Mousetrap: Also, I don't know if you use PayPal, but for some reason it seems to take a while for the payment to reach Brainking now. The last time I bought Brains, it took almost a week, I think! I bought another year this past Sunday (and got lucky with the red circle), and it hasn't gone through here yet. So, we know it takes at least 2 days anyways. So, keep that in mind, that it probably won't be "instant". (Of course, it could be different from Europe, and with other payment methods)

Mousetrap: www.brainking.info says it needs to be paid by the end of November.

Can someone remind how long I get to pay for my bonus membership that I just placed an order for please? It is no problem if it is now but it would be nice to know if I still get some extra time to place. Thank you.

Snoopy: I like strange things. Furthermore, it is not worth rewriting in all 21 supported languages because the action will be over in 14 hours.

Fencer: just thought it was strange has that was 6 months ago

Snoopy: And?

it says payment must be recieved by April 30th 2008

Please remember

KnightFighter: Yea, happy birthday Fencer - you forget to change the light bulb to a birthday cake for the prize icon!

Pedro Martínez: wanted to be first, lol

KnightFighter: You're 3 hours early, Andy. :)

Happy Birthday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry for the Off-Topic but Interviews is still in this board's subject. I'd just like to warn all that follow the interviews about the Chrsitmas Interview Special. You can read more about it in the Interviews board. Please post any questions and comments there...

just wondering why it is over a min slow

tell us the whole story ....

Snoopy: If nothing goes wrong.

are we to have any more added this year Fencer?
thinking it be nice to have a few new ones has your Christmas present to us all

BrainKing64: You won't see your own games because you can't accept them. After all you can't play against yourself. Or at least not legally.

I keep checking the Waiting Games and there is never any Reversi. When I create a game and am waiting for opponets I don't see those in the Waiting Games list either. Can I just not see my games?... Is no one else playing Reversi? I still love the site though.

Okay, thanks alot guys... I really like this site, my first time playing turn based but I'm enjoying it.

BrainKing64: if I remember correctly you have to play 4 games :)

Do you have to pay to get rank?... I played a game and my opponet who was also a Brain Pawn lost and they are like 1090 now or something and mine still says unrated.

wetware: Yes, but it's not being used much, so far.

rabbitoid: Leave that 21-point cloning backgammon match to me in your will!  I'll carry on.  My longest cloning game so far is a 228-mover.  Is your match using a doubling cube, at least?

MadMonkey: good game, you win

rabbitoid: Well, i will try to beat that in my Logik game. Been 3 months WITHOUT a move form my opponent

aaru: I have a better record: a couple of clowning backgammon (sorry) against the site's champion turtle, 86 moves in all, match started 15. January 2007, we're in the 2nd game. It's a 21 point match. I expect to die of old age before it's through.

719 moves -> AntyTryktrak (aaru vs. Lu-Tze)

Fencer:    Yeah!  I had a good idea.  ;)

Artful Dodger: Great idea.

rabbitoid:  I agree.  lol  Tip of the day #33  "If you don't like what you read on these daily tips, you can disable them from the settings menu."   

Hmm, what's wrong with Fencer making a something extra on the side with a little advertising if it serves to keep membership fees from rising? since even pawns can disable that part (eh... I think), who cares?

Tuesday: Yes, they do. Unfortunately, my Maharajah was not the black one. :)

Hrqls: Of course, I forgot.

Fencer: correction :
1) a few (i think), although i am not one of them :)
