sure you can :-) you just can't join the same team for two fellowships...such as the Line4 team :-)

(you can only be a member of the Line4 team for one fellowship)

This was the subject of a message i got. The game was a draw. (against stromovous)

Uh-oh, a message is missing in the resource bundle. I'll fix it ASAP :-)

Please could someone tell me which days are already allocated for holidays & also how we book our holidays, I cant seem to find a list of the days which are already booked or how to add my own!???? :o)

if you go to your settings page on the left...and click on the Calendar on the top you can check the boxes beside the days to make the vacation. It also lists there the site holidays and your days off.

thankyou for that :0) (and Lamby for asking :-))
though I have just ticked the 27th Dec, and then when I look at my profile, it says my vacation day is the 26th .. any ideas ?

Nope, i can't help you with that! I've never had to use vacation days...but when i just did it said 26th on my profile too...not sure why it would do that! Maybe Fencer will fill us in here...lol

Thank you Kevin! :o)

Niki: As I can see, your profile shows 27th December. And when I look directly at the database, you really have 27th December 2002 there. Are you sure that your profile shows 26?

Maybe i have a sick mind but i have problems with the "brains" to owe. Every time I see zero brains behind my name i think: I am not a lunatic, i have brains. Can't you give it an other name???????? (lol)

i still have no brains but hey ive been told that for so many years i mine as well start believing it...haha

That's why there is a capital "B" ;-)

Fencer : thanks for looking into this for me .. I have double checked my profile this morning and it does definitely say that my vacation day is the 26th. On the calendar the 26th is already a holiday, so I've definitely ticked the right one.
:0)

Yes I have done the same as Niki, I ticked the 27th as a holiday & on my profile it says the 26th...???

Lamby: I see 27 and 30 on your profile. Strange. Could you make a screenshot of your browser window showing your profile and send it to me?

AAaaaaaahhh! I've found it! It is influenced by your time zone :-)) But it is only a display problem, the value in database is correct. I'll fix it ASAP.

Oh brilliant, mystery solved! Thanks for sorting that out Fencer! :o)

A checkers game i lost came with the message:

You captured all opponent's pieces. (Checkers)

When in fact i did not capture all my opponent's pieces! lol.

And what did you do, then? ;-)

Fencer, not sure if anyone else is having this as a problem, but is it possible that you could make a simple change with the "note-box" like putting it as a "clickable link" to bring UP the box instead of just having it there..? or maybe just make it a different shade of color might work.. Sorry, the reason I'm requesting this is because there are several times (feeling like a fool here) I have found that I have wrote my message to my opponent in my note-box instead of where it should have been.. then turn around and have to re-write it over again..
also, could you add an "edit" and a "delete" button to it as well..?

I can highlight one the the boxes to make a visible difference.

that'll be cool.. I'll give it a look-see, and thanx Fencer.. :-))

I got all my pieces taken?? lol :-)

Ah-ha! Heh ;-) There is a little bug at the message system. I'll check it.

Shame it didnt take your piece in our game of maharajah chess kevin cos i cant seem to lol xx

lol :-) And i hope to keep it that way!!

I am not a member yet. But Eddie told me about this site and I like it alot. It beat itsyourturn in my opinion, and it has some things goldtoken doesn't have and vise versa.
Anyway.
I will be staying with a friend that has a computer and I told her about brainking. And what I want to know is:
If I play on her computer using my username and password will it mess her up. Because I did with itsyourturn, and her son did also. So there were three people and they evedently thought she had several accounts so she could play more games.And it mess her up and she could not move.
If this will mess her up I guess I will have to play it on my laptop. Please reply.

In tablut, is there an automatic draw if we repeat moves several times?
Next, if I play a 2 game match and we draw, will ratings change. I ask, because mine never has and I must have had around 10 draws.

lwmc: Don't worry about that. It is legal to share a computer when playing on BrainKing.com. Everything you have to do is to click on "Logout" link before another player can log in. That's all :-)

tonyh: No, there is not an automatic draw. But maybe I should add it. I'll add some notes about it to Tablut rules ASAP.
About BKR, it is re-calculated everytime when a game/match is finished. But sometimes it is not changed [see FAQ].

I have set my setting so that I will be emailed when it is my turn, but is there a way where you could get one email instead of 30 because I don't check my email before I login on brain king and by the time I do check my email I have a mess of them.

Sure. Set the same e-mail for all players who log in from your computer.

Does anyone have sensitivity to the brightness that the back-ground here gives out..? I have 2 players that love this site, but won't play anymore because they say it's too "bright" and hurts their eyes far too much to continue.. Is there a choice of back-ground shade or color on here we can choose from..?

Do you mean the "global" brightness of the white background on all site pages?
I will add a new option to set a bg color by a user.

Yes , that would be great Fencer , as i hope that everyone had a nice Christmas eve :)))))))))

Fencer: Yes sir, I do believe it's the "white" that's too "bright", and I'm sure they will all thank you for that added option.. (I as well so I won't lose any more clients from it). lol...
Do you know how soon it will be, before it's activated..??

i want my membership cancelled!!! i dont want to play on this thing no more!!!!

Then just dont bother coming back

Ok Mr. Potty Mouth...Are we a little "Scrooged" after the Holiday??? ;o

I mayhave missed a reply to this question before,so if I'm repeating it I'm sorry! When I click on my emails,instead of bringing me to the game it brings me to the log in page..Why?
Also when I've tried to copy my game list to a "F" key,it also brings me to the log in page,other sites I use let me bypass the log in page..using a webtv if this makes any difference?

I have webtv. as well and know how it is. Do you have your settings on this site to where you are automatically logged in? If you do then I'm not sure why you are having this problem. If not then this may be your problem. Hope this helps some. :)

it seems to me that this 20 yr old female is unhappy due to her lack of winning... she won 1 game and lost 4... but there is no need to use such a foul user name... lol

I won't say how many I have lost (you can see for yourself! LOL) but I think that's what makes this fun. Is trying to win. I agree with you (Dave) on the user name.

I didn't have the box checked,but even after doing so,I can't enter on the emails or directly to my game page, still have to log in..

And if you don't click on the links in the e-mails and just open the BrainKing.com URL, does automamatic login work for you?

yeah mom... its all about fun win lose or draw... just friendly games with alot of nice ppl :-)

And you can always define an unrated game if you want to play a friendly game with no BKR change ;-)

yep yep :-)

I really like playing this game and I also love this site, but everytime I play Five in Line I get "this page is too big" (webtv player). I did what was reccommended if you have webtv the first day I started playing and it helped but I still get "this page is too big" all the time. Is there anything else I can do? Does anyone else have this problem. I know I can just quit playing this game but I hate to have to do that!! It's the only game I have trouble with. Thanks for help in advance!!!!

I haven't had exactly that problem but I have had some problems when hitting the go to next game it will sometimes take me to a blank page instead of the next game. I usually reload the page and then it seems to stop. You might try the same. When is it that you are getting this page? Maybe you have your settings wrong. I'm not a whiz just know what I would try. LOL
