rabbitoid: Welcome to the WONDERFUL WORLD of BrainKing:)))

Carl: Welcome to the wonderful world of automatic vacation

Carl:Hadn't noticed this before, but I see I must be playing the same person.  Still in the first game of 2 7 point matches started in August.  Odd.

Carl: if he was winning he would move

Bernice:

Pedro Martínez: hahahahaha......no prizes for guessing who it is either ROFLMBO

Carl: No worries. He'll have to start moving on Friday. Unless he purchases another membership, that is.

Pedro Martínez: I didn't think of that.Thanks. But I just checked his days and it is set for Wednesday and Thursday? But i supposed that could have been reset yesterday.I also checked when the game started,it was 11th August 08.It's a 7 point backgammon race game with a 2 day limit.16 moves made so far.I'm no mathematician but that seems like a lot of vacation days used!

Carl:did they renew a membership today if so they get additional vacation days

Carl: Weekend days?

I don't understand how these work.I'm playing a game against someone with 0 vacation days left,yet when they time out, another 24 hours is added to there time too move? Can anyone shed any light on this phenomenon?

Am i right in thinking that the Poker game is written in JavaScript ?

If so are there any plans to change any of the other games so they would run in it, hence stopping the need for page reloading. Would be a bonus for Logik i know that

Bernice: LOL the end of what.I have to lean to the left.I,am going to end up on the floor LOL:))

"GERRY":I've been on for a few hours now and had no problems.

"GERRY": Yes, the bang is at your end indeed.

"GERRY": a lot of things have changed over the years (even I must admit) It sounds like it would be at your end....

What has happened to this site today? BK sever is timing me out.Pages are loaded crooked.It was working fine then BANG.That what it use to do year,s ago

Fencer:Interesting.  Looks like the Western US is not well served.  I wonder why they didn't include major cities on the West Coast (LA, San Francisco) in their list.  Or Las Vegas, for that matter.

Artful Dodger: I know that Internet Explorer is a very strange piece of software because sometimes it does not show any page at all and just gets frozen (not only with BrainKing but any other page I try). I hope that the version 8 will become more stable but until then, I really don't recommend to use this browser unless you have no other choice.
Google Chrome is definitely the fastest one, at the moment.

Fencer:Only once in a while are things slow for me.  Mostly they are very fast.  So fast that I have to revert back to dial up just to keep up!  ;)  j/k 

I'll say this.  I use Explorer when I'm at work and that browser is horrible on BK.  Firefox is great and people who are having trouble but insist on using Explorer are missing out.  Firefox is the way to go.  That is the FIRST thing folks should do.  Chrome is fast too but I prefer FireFox. 

BadBoy7: That's not true. I've made a speed test using an independent service and it proves that the connection is very fast from some places in USA, while it is significantly slower from other locations. Which means that the site is OK and the problem is with your ISP line to Europe or something like that.

Just to be more precise: Philadephia, Orlando or Washington show less than 1 second response (actually the average time is about half a second) and two other places seem to have a connectivity problem because their response times exceed 4 seconds. This is just an example, the test cannot cover all places around the world, of course.

This reply does not mean that nobody has a problem to get to BrainKing but it should be a recommendation to everyone who thinks that to blame BrainKing is always the right thing to do. Please don't do it (especially at public boards) if you cannot make a qualified evaluation of the situation. Thank you.

anyone else noticing multiple links to the same board under their favorites list? The World of Arts board shows up 4 times in my list.. if I try to remove anyone of them it takes them all away and the Stories board takes over the lead with multi links.. I suppose it would happen with any board which appeared last in my list..
