who want's to play backgammon with me????

whatdidyousay: It seems it's faster to me too. I am at home now and using cable instead of DSL and regardless it sure seems faster!

Czuch Chuckers: LOL Chuckers. Some have series of tournaments that have the same name but different numbers. So they set up the whole series at one time.

LOL.... I just went to sign up for a backgammon tournament advertised on the main page, and it is due to begin in October 2006! Whats up with that?

Love it. The site seems much faster now. Thanks for taking the time to do it.

duh me . i thought it was last tues

Hum, I missed a letter... I meant read...

Andre Faria: Yea right, that would mean I would have to know how to read lol

Andre : propably not :]

Backoff: Haven´t you red the server news?

There was nothing break , that was told there is going to be a upgrade :]

Fencer: Ok, what did you break???

Ups, sorry, I wanted to post it in brainking.com (PT)... :)

Andre Faria: Wrong DB :P
But yes, we did...

Aissi / Paulo: já meteram o BK nos motores de busca portugueses?

rod03801: but didn't see it there either..
Just start a game with 0d0h per move and you will get a never-timeout game...

I can't remember where I read it, now. I just looked under "Help" and couldn't see it there. I also started the process of creating a game, to see if that was where I saw it, but didn't see it there either..

It isn't an option I myself would choose. But I can see 2 people who are friends, playing a friendly game, might choose the option. I'm sure someone in this situation wouldn't find it foolish or silly at all..
Simply don't use it, and don't sign up for games that use it..

Purple: yeah we could end up with loads of started games that noone eactually plays! sounds very silly, what the point of that!?

rod03801: If that is true it is as foolish a feature as I have ever heard of.

wellywales, with the new fisher clock timeouts, it is possible to create a game that will never time out. I am assuming that is what happened.

Lamby: Ok! Thanks, but when will this game time out if it states under Time left "Not used"

wellywales: no, if you resign from the game it will not affect your BKR until after two moves each I think it is, but it will count as a loss for you though

How do I delete a game that has not started, I challenged a person in the waiting room a few days ago and he has not stated, the time left states "Not Used" if I resign do I lose points? there is no "delete game" shown as stated in FAQ

if it is longer than 65535 i dont think so . What are sending , last part of harry potter ? :]

Maxxina: so will I be able to get the rest of my messgae or is it totally missed?

65535 is a limit Reza

Does anyone know if there is some sort of limitation on teh size of messages sent to fellowships or not?

I posted along messag eand now I see half of it gone. Can I have the other half back if it's somehow stored in the databases?

Thanks

thats right, you are supposed to keep'em wanting more

Vikings: I'm saving that one.

NOT a floosie: there's an answer missing, I didn't see the answer ""

*makes a notes to warn the next victim on who to NOT take questions from*

*...but then wonders who would be left!*

to you both!!! Having second thoughts about her sharing now...you can have it all Floose- I insist.
Do you think it's too late to ask about tea cozies? If it's not in the interview, maybe we can ask her here?


*wonders about the 'take a number'* too, but is afraid to ask

baddessi: the"take a number"has my wheels turnin!!LOL

baddessi: The question to which 'pass me a spoon was the answer' was my, 'will you muck out the stables for me if I bought you a new microwave?'

Did anyone ask about the tea cozy???

NOT a floosie: I'm intrigued by the 'pass me a spoon' answer. It's gotta be ice cream! And I think you should share!!!!

NOT a floosie: LOLOL

Tuesday: Yours was one of the easiest ones.

Here's a preview of the answers.

yes
no
no
I think so.
CLAY...stop that!
yup
ok
pass me a spoon
wooohoooo!
Take a number.

:o)

I was rather hoping that everyone would forget about it!

NOT a floosie: Wednesday? You're not getting any younger you know. It's been a while since you had one of the starring roles in the film, Cocoon.

NOT a floosie: hurry Floose! I don't know how much longer I can hold my breath!!!

Backoff: HA! It's almost done. I've been working 6 days a week lately. I'm hoping to get it sent back to Harley on Wednesday.

ArtfulDodger: The Flame Pit is not the cave, the cave was brought back... it was unbanned.

Backoff: People were banned for what was said in the cave so it does matter, apparently, even if the person's that are talked about aren't present.

Backoff: Not True Backoff!!!!

I was booted and BANNED from the Flame! Why? Because I violated your "rules." Simple. I was censored.

Walter Montego: Yes a few of the members are avid about it and thats fine.

When I left, I had hoped that would have ended the belittling of me by the few in the f/s that seem to enjoy that.

I wanted only a reasonable and meaningful discussion of the pros and cons. It wasn't my intentions of starting WWIII

Out of respect to Harley and Pedro I am done with the subject until perhaps a later date when everyone can remain civil and have an open discussion.

ClayNashvilleTn: I fail to see what your problem is Clay. The title of that particular fellowship clearly states what it is about. No censorship is one thing, but I assume that it is still moderated. Standoff said you left the fellowship, so that's the end of that.

As for all your worries, I can't imagine that obscure fellowship having any effect on anyone. If you don't like it, then don't join it. I can't say if I'd like it or not as I'm not joining it anyways. Let's assume for the sake of argument that someone in there is badmouthing me. I have to ask, so what? I'm not a member, so I don't read the post. If I was a member the very nature of that particular fellowship allows me to lash out if I want to, or just rebut the nasty post concerning myself. I could also leave the fellowship if I was a member and grew tired of such things. Since you've left the fellowship, why are you trying to impose your moral judgment on those that remain or restrict someone that might actually have fun and enjoy such a wide open and ranging fellowship? Judging from the number of posts in the short time since I asked if you were a member of said fellowship, I'd say you've struck a nerve with the members of that fellowship. I agree with Pedro, and in fact think that such a fellowship probably brings in more members that it might cause to leave. It certainly can't hurt to have a place to vent one's anger at the system and could indirectly lead to positive change in some cases. Even though I doubt if I'd be offended by the carrying ons of the fellowship, those that are can do just as I have, don't join it.

ClayNashvilleTn: I understand that, Clay. But PMs are a better instrument for that purpose, in my opinion.
