How about if auto-vacation days were calculated as minus two days each but intentionally set days were counted as minus one?

The point is that the game would force the opening. I believe it is to eliminate the advantage (like pente). Therefore the rating would work out better as well.

In other words, there is no difference. Players just must agree with several opening moves.

I believe pro checkers is the same as regular checkers but with preset opening moves.

if we didnt jump ,we called it a huff and you lost your piece that you could have jumped with .

Thats the way I always played as a kid - not having to jump.

Pro-checkers? Is the version where you do not have to jump?

I would like to see pro-checkers on this site.

Glad to 'ear it.

your posts have not been approved anyways Ughaibu

Rose, the girl whose kiss from the heart I still eagerly await.

It's up to Rose.

Please make me temporary moderator of Members.

You can if you are the board moderator.

I would like to be able to delete messages that need approval.

How about an option to filter the tournament list by creator? BrainKing already stores that information; for example, all of Big Bad Wolf's tournaments appear on the following page: http://brainking.com/game/Tournaments?trnst=10&tp=0&submit=Show&u=2560, so little change would be needed.

How about adding a column to the list of unfinished games on profiles: "Started" or something like that. It would list the date (and time?) that the game was started, and the list could be sorted by that column.

Maybe a link where it shows your won lost record against a player, that shows your notes for that person in that game type.

how about ataxx on here?

ah!!! nice!! thats what i meant .. the descriptions in the friends screen .. of course its only needed for regular opponents which will probably be in the friends list .. thanks!

after the backgammon prize tournament is over i will be a paying member .. wether i have to for it myself or let the tournament pay for it ... i still have a (very small) chance .. go mary jo! ;)

its nice to have this feature for pawns already as well ...

it would be nice to be able to place notes about certain players strategies per game which could be read when playing that specific type of game .. but for now i have all i need :)

Also convenient for keeping track of those who change names a lot.. :-)

yeah....I could have catagories...stalked,to be stalked,dont want to stalk... LOL:)

It would be nice to be able to write notes about players and their game habits where they could be kept in a file that could be accessed anytime, not just during a game. If you were to be in a match with someone, you could just pull up their name and see any notes you had on them
.

LOL! I have never used that feature :)
Pretty cool!
Is that description listed anywhere else,or accessable anywhere else? It seems it would take up a lot of space if you had a complete game playing description for all of your friends.

Yes, pawns have the description of Friends as well :-)

and below the board there is a button "add a note"...

Hrqls, when you look at 'friends', do you have a box saying 'change description' then a drop down box with your friends listed? If so, you could add your regular opponents there and put notes about their game play. I'm not sure if this feature is available to pawns.

There is a notepad for paying members. You can write notes about anything you want there.

is it possible to add notes to a certain player ... notes only you can read .. like the notes you can make about the game in espionage .. it would be a nice way to write your own notes to remember certain strategies a specific opponent uses

How about updating the S-B scores while the tournament is running. I know they are meaningless early, but as the tournament progresses it becomes interesting.

On the statistics pages it would be fun to see which users delete what proportion of their messages.

How about duplicated posts??

and about Jokes Db's?

Can we have a linguistics board? I'd like to find a word to cover LongJohn.

Thanks and good.

Yes, deleted messages are archived.

In short I would like to be able to ask any moderator to retrieve a deleted post.

When an arsehole deletes a message does it remain, like a species of shadow, for the moderator's records? If not, I suggest that as a feature whereby arguements would have increased back-up, say in the case of patent law, et al.

LOL Don't pay any attention to Bumble!

(Hmmmm....wonder how long before I get hidden!)

Fencer's a gnu? :)

seems a "hide" feature for notation would be easiest,and possibly helpful in other games....but then again,I'm no programing guru,like Fencer ;-)
*quick! someone give me a towel ;-)*

Yes, the ranks on the espionage pieces are way too small for tv's.... Fencer is going to be making them easier to see, at some point.

LOL@bumble...Ancient???? she told me she was 21. LOL;-) j/k

I use the notation alot,scanning chess games...but its kinda useless for Espionage.

Some other sites have a link to click on to get game notation if we want it. I usually have mine turned off, but am glad it's there in case I need it.

I think all web tv users have the same problem with the numbers, bwild. I know fluzzy does - but I put that down to her being one of the ancients. :)

is there a way to hide the game notation? if the board were bigger on Espionage...I could read the numbers on the soldiers.Are there any other web tv folks having this problem?
I can read them when the board is 1st set up,but once the game notation appears its too small to make out.

:)

IMCK: Yes, you can still add and remove general (non-fellowship) Discussion Boards to your favourites list.

Thematic tournies, where the starting position is prearranged (usually an opening or variation), might be fun.

Also, if these could be user defined?

Just a thought.
