Red number indicators at the menu column.
Occurence: Everywhere.
Source: BrainKing.com application.
Status: Fix in progress.
Description: Under some circumstances, a table of counters is not updated properly after a user makes a move, deletes a private message etc. The result is that the numbers indicating a number of new messages, games, invitations etc. are not always accurate.
How to fix it: To find a bug in the code and fix it.
Suggested workaround: Don't rely on the red numbers until this bug is fixed.

I have a problem, on my main page, where on the left hand side it actually says main page, the number 2 (in red) is permanently showing, even though I have no games, tourney etc outstanding, is anyone else having the same problem.

Assunto: Re: I think this warrants investigation
GI :) about 6 months ago or there abouts I brought this same thing up with a person that is know to us all, every game he had won on default...the default being the other side conceded defeat.

I was told that as he was in control of the game it was natural for the other side to resign.

I resign games of backgammon but only when the other side has all his within striking distance of home:(...it dont do me much good tho LOLOL

But for some one clever enough to have multiple nics (and there are a lot)they can show themselves as a super-power when in fact they are like a grain of sand in a big desert.

Assunto: not that it matters, to me at least
but my drawn games was something like 42..46..or something (which in itself is a phurphy-because of the big break down in Sept2003)...hehehe it is now 1...

Im not overly BKR orientated like some but it makes you wonder how TRUE are the other results...i lose probably 66% to 75% of my games so the rest look about right, but has anyone else noticed their games numbers have changed....
OH and before the crash last year I had won 2 tournaments, but I cant remember nor do I care, so that isnt a problem here...
Just in case this is a glitch (as opposed to a bug)

CurbYourEnthus record in Backgammon Race 25-0-0 and all againest the same person. Like LongJohn said game forfeited after 3 or 4 moves. I see the bkr is only 1300 but I think that both people sould be put in that bad corner we have, time out for like a week or so for tring to pull trickes on us in here. TYVM for ur time.

Modificado por rod03801 (2. Julho 2004, 07:35:57)
I thought of one other thing that I dont remember seeing listed in changes.
The way of adding notes to yourself in games has changed.. No more text box automatically there. It's now a link, to bring up the text box..

Now if we could only get the note to show up at the top of the game on your next turn..
:-D

LongJohn 
Assunto: I think this warrants investigation
CurbYourEnthus rates #7 on the backgammon bkr. Not too bad unless you dig a little deeper and notice a few things.

1. Backgammon Race results all against gamer07 and in every game, gamer07 resigned after just enough moves to warrant bkr calculation.

2. Backgammon 2004 and Backgammon 2003 and Backgammon 2002 obviously shows that CurbYourEnthus is doing something just a teeny weeny bit naughty to aid his BKR.

Fencer, I wonder if this obvious cheating should cause resetting of BKR or maybe it is just pure chance that gamer07 had to resign every game after 4 moves due to an impossible situation.

I would be interested in anyone elses interpretation on this situation.

Using WebTV, you will only have to log back in if you 1) log out, or 2) Power off WebTV completely, (or switch webtv accounts).
Simply using "Hang up", or allowing it to time out after the 10 minutes keeps you always logged in here.
Sort of an advantage, yes..

Assunto: Re: US Chess Federation Formula
To me it seems very similar. Like I said the formula is modified for brainking. I have played lots of backgammon games. I am over 2200. I play games with people 2000 or higher as rule. My game fluxuations are generally 8 points up or down depending on the result. That is similar to the chess formula. However like I said Fencer could answer this issue better than I can. He knows the modifications to the formula.

1. Julho 2004, 20:09:42

Ok Brian..no more comments :)

Modified beyond recognition. Try this link, if it works: US Chess Federation Formula

1. Julho 2004, 19:56:57
Brian1971 
Assunto: BuilderQ
Like I said the formula was modified when Brainking adopted it for its rating system. I am sure Fencer could explain it better than me. Of course liek I said I play more for fun and less for rating.

1. Julho 2004, 19:55:02
Brian1971 
Assunto: andersp
Sure i guess there could be a problem. there will always be some who will not like it. But that is their problem and not yours. Everyone who is on a team in a fellowship should have an opportunity to play. If it were me I would let those who signed up first get the chance. If someone wanted to play but was too late in signing up then too bad. However then I would say whomever played in one tournament should give someone else who didnt play a chance in the next one. Or possibly do a blind draw and rotate the team each tournament so everyone would get a chance that wants one.

1. Julho 2004, 19:51:49
BuilderQ 
Brian1971: If this site really used the US Chess Federation formula, my rating would always be raised by less than 16 points for winning against a lower rated player.

1. Julho 2004, 19:49:46
Andersp 
Brian. Dont you think there can be a problem if someone with lower "rating" is picked to a team?

1. Julho 2004, 19:45:17

My 6th game just completed, and its put me on there now :o)

Then there may be a bug. That would be Fencer's department.

1. Julho 2004, 19:43:51
Brian1971 
Assunto: andersp
I would agree with you about the rating fomula but like I said I dont worry too much about it. I figure if I win more than I lose, it will be a good number, if I lose more than I win, then it will be a low number. As far as fellowship teams, depending on the fellowship, you may be able to play team tournaments for your fellowship, if it is an open sign up offered for tournament. Meaning that the captains or Big Boss says first come, first serve despite rating. So your point of BKR meaning more, may not always apply. However yes it might mean something to some fellowship captains or bosses.

1. Julho 2004, 19:43:32
Backoff 
But there's two people on there so there IS one.

1. Julho 2004, 19:40:13
Brian1971 
Assunto: Stevie
Must be a bug or like I said before, since it is a new game, a table hasnt been established yet.

1. Julho 2004, 19:37:17
Stevie 
Assunto: Brian
I am not on all rated table either, nor is backoff

1. Julho 2004, 19:35:59
Andersp 
I have never cared about rating but since the rating decides who will be picked to the fellowship teams i think it will be more important now.
Must say that the formula is very weird if you lose 46 BKR if you lose to a player with a lot higher rating and only -13 if you lose to a player with lower rating. Should be opposite.

1. Julho 2004, 19:32:31
Brian1971 
Stevie: Of course you wont be on the established table until 25 rated games are completed. However check the table with all rated players.

1. Julho 2004, 19:31:15
Brian1971 
Stevie: It is possible since it is a new game.

BuilderQ: It is the US Chess Federation formula. However it is modified for BrainKing. For instance if you beat a significantly weaker opponent you gain little or no BKR. If the formula was exactly applied you would lose points in this example. So if you can access the US Chess Federation Formula for calculating a rating number than you can figure it out.

ooops found it now, but me not on it

I have a bkr but no rating and cant find it :o(
