coan.net: yes, yes, yes....I know all that, and I dont have a problem, I havent been kicked out....but if someone is good enough to join the tournaments surely they deserve the respect of being in the f/s until the tourney is finished. But going by your post, each player that the person is teamed up with should at least get a draw to make it even.

Now example......if I joined a tournament in the garden board and was banned from there, what is your explanation on that?

Bernice: Well I can tell you that Fencer has always felt that a fellowship, who is allowed in a fellowship, and the "rules" of a fellowship belongs to the Big Boss of that fellowship - so if a BB want's someone out of their fellowship, then they have 100% right to do so.

And I agree with that - if a BB does not want someone in a fellowship, then they have the right to kick the person out - no matter if a player got into some fellowship tournaments, discussions, etc... if they want them out, they are out. Reason to kick person out? Does not matter - that is one of the privileges of running a fellowship, which all Brain Rooks & above have the ability to start.

alilsassy: doesn't look as tho we are going to get an answer does it

Fencer: Thanks, I have a bunch I want to add and was just curious.

Artful Dodger: I am not sure, I'll have to look at the code first. But even if there is a limit, it would be a very high number.

Thanks for the patience on this question that may have been asked before. Is there a limit to the number of smilies we can have in fellowships?

Mousetrap: i think another part of the reason is what is mention on the FR board to
creators of tournaments have to go thou 128 games to remove her from each section

so most of them leave her in has its easier that way right now

Bernice: I've been wanting to know the same thing.
    I was recently booted from 4 fellowships belonging to what I believe to be nic's of a certain member. After a switch of BB's & LB's  from one to another I hadn't even posted on the boards in a couple of them, and one of the f/s was a flaming fellowship that I only made one post, not even considered by most as flaming. Needless to say, I am stuck playing tournament games in fellowships that I was booted from with no justifiable cause.  When I requested to know why I was booted I was told "it was because I post in HRC". I was already an active member of HRC when I was invited to these other fellowships. Sounds almost a lil' prejudice against members being in a certain f/s.  I'm so glad that not all BB's think that same way & welcome me to their fellowships.
   I think it would be nice if Fencer could implement some new guidelines to the effect of removing a person from a fellowship, as well as, all their games being played for that fellowship.  Maybe not removing the member immediately, but BB giving a proper notice for action, and not accepting them to join new tournaments. Allowing them to finish the tournament games already in play. When the particular member has finished the game then be removed from the fellowship if the BB can remember why they wanted to boot them in the first place.  Just a thought   I think it might help eliminate this petty booting from BB's & LB's.

Mousetrap: i think they trying to get to the top of this pointless board by hook or by crook http://brainking.com/en/Statistics?p=1


they dont care what they do
many ppl are fed up with her esp when ppl also know she has at least 3 other accounts

When is something going to be done about this I***t signing up for games then resigning after the first move Or do we have to wait untill her/his Rook membership runs out and hope that noone buys him/her one

we all know that you can't leave a fellowship if you are in any tournaments, until such time as you finish the tournament.
Now, would it be possible to prevent BB's from throwing someone out when they are still playing in tournaments for said fellowship?
seems a bit "one sided" at the moment.

Bernice:

Slow here too....
Spent all morning setting up my start position for a game of screen chess, took up to a couple of minutes to place each piece...

slow as hell and many white pages

Fencer: Thanks Fencer...... I was just curious

Fencer: Ah that explains it! Thank you very much!

Mousetrap: The approve mode is just one of access modes applied to all discussion boards, public or private. Actually it is kind of useless in fellowships but, for some reason, I forgot to disable it at all. It does not make any harm, anyway.

Fencer: So a pawn can post inside a fellowship on a fellowship discussion board? I ask because in FoxyLady,s caffee house it says (mode)pawns must be approved somewhere at the top. And I would like to be able to invite some pawns if it is possible.

alilsassy: Members with expired membership are not kicked out because many of them usually renew it later and they like to restore their fellowship list automatically instead of rejoining them one by one. And as long as they are pawns, they cannot use any fellowship functions, including discussion boards.
Or at least that's how I think it should be working.

Mousetrap:& Fencer: I've noticed many members in several private fellowships that are listed as pawns. If a member returns to a status of pawn, should they not be removed from the fellowship? Do they still have the same access to read the private boards and advantages as a paid member in those fellowships?

Mousetrap: Most likely it was a fellowship discussion board, not the fellowship itself.

I am puzzled by something(well I,m puzzled anyway but) I saw in one Fellowship that the Mode was on pawns must be approved. So can pawns join an invite only Fellowship or is it me? I thought you had to be a rook.

El Cid: thank you, but I still cant understand why that has to be a live link on my personal information....no worries

Bernice: You're looking at the "brain entry" tournaments. If you go to the end of the page, it will show the 9 tournaments you've created (since you've joined the site)

besides I do not play any of those games


Jungle 15 5 5
Cheversi 8 5 3
Go 13x13 8 5 3
Chess 5 5 2
Linetris 5 5 2
Spider Line4 5 5 2 Halma 8x8 5 5 2
Open Keryo Pente 5 5 2
Jarmo 2 5 1
Japanese Chess 2

skipinnz: I have NOT created any tourneys

Pedro Martínez: yes that is correct and if you click on the tourneys when you get there they are NOT created by myself :)

Bernice: If you click on it it will take you to the 9 tourneys you have created.

Bernice: Yup, and if I click it, it takes me here:
http://brainking.com/cz/Tournaments?trnst=10&u=1510

Pedro Martínez: above that there is a live link that says "show tournaments created by Bernice"

Bernice: It says “Bernice's running tournaments”. It is not a list of tournaments created by you, but a list of the running tournaments you're in. :)

Bernice

on this page it says....show tournaments created by Bernice (9)

how come the first one I clicked on was created by Hoky??

Fencer:

Pedro Martínez: Request acknowledged.

I am requesting the removal of this user from the rankings and possibly banning the respective persons from BK.

alilsassy: Madmonkey is right only BB can delete a fellowship
he must of given someone his password and that person must of deleted them
maybe by mistake or not is something we will never know for sure

alilsassy: Little Bosses can not delete Fellowships (as far as i know)

Something i just noticed on the same subject though. A Fellowship i was Little Boss of, i no longer am, and the guy who was Big Boss, is now Little Boss.....and the Big Boss is 'nobody', in fact it does not even show a Big boss in the Fellowship........now thats REALLY odd

Bernice: With 2 active fellowships now deleted you would think someone would know why. Especially since the big boss claims he didn't do it. Is it possible that the lil' boss have made this mistake & deleted them?

alilsassy: I asked thaat question days ago but was ignored

Snoopy: Well, yes, if i had the time to keep going through all the Team players to find out if they are still playing here. Still, not to worry

Bernice: I just finished a tournament game and noticed the fellowship is gone.

Anyone know why W☼LF'S GAMER☼☼M was deleted? I still have several more tournament games running in that fellowship.

rabbitoid: He is waiting for his achievement award for taking the most unused vacation days

MadMonkey: Ha! your turtle is just an amateur. You have already 9 finished games. Now look at mine. Now there's a real grandmaster for you!

MadMonkey: you should of asked Fencer to change that player
seems thats the way it goes these days

rabbitoid: yeah, i am playing in that

I just think its crazy to start a Tournament one player short. Hope the new BrainKing allows substitutes or maybe even waits before the next round starts, until the Team has been confirmed......not to worry, we will concede a 2-0 start to them

MadMonkey: Play Cloning Gammon for a prize. has been going on strong since 15. January 2007, 20:05:23 (it's a good thing BK gives the exact second),

Happy 3rd birthday! round 1 still has some happy decades before it can start to think about retirement. My own retirement will surely come first.

DO NOT DISTURB! MASTER TURTLES HARD AT WORK!!!

How crazy.... the Final of Jan 2008 Clone Wars has just started, not bad going after 2 years

Sadly, one of our player has not been on BrainKing since August 2008........BUT they still get 2 games in the Final

Bernice: thats a very good point.

can somebody explain to me how a fellowship can be deleted when it has a tournament running?

If I wanted to leave the fellowship and was playing in a tournament it wouldn't allow me to leave.

Fencer: Is that AI or AS?

Fencer:
