BerniceC: You wouldn't believe what computers are capable of, to prepare a sleepless night for us.
My next project will have a completely different architecture.

wooo hooooooo....BK back on the air....nothing for last 4 hours here

Tuesday: If you have pond games you won't be able to finish them, since you won't be able to move. Other than that you get to keep everything (multiple tournaments and stairs, more than 20 games, etc).
Only when you try to start a game, pawn's restrictions are verified and you won't be able to start any more until you go under 20 games again, nor enter any more tournaments until you're eliminated in all your current ones.

Tuesday: No problem at all

Tuesday: I think, but i stand to be corrected, you can continue to play the games that u already have.

Hrqls:understandable to a point, if one plays for ____ and giggles, I didn't even concider 'most moves' or 'action points' ...guess I was looking at things one sided, like winning and improving ones 'BKR rating'...
thanx for the feedback...



Editted to remove profanity . Sorry, even partly spelled words with ** is not acceptable on public boards.

Hrqls:

King Reza: well said! better than i did :)

LionsLair: 4 or 5 games would be enough for me .. as long as it would provide me with some waiting moves when i logon

4 or 5 games doesnt do that for me though .. it depends on my opponents

thats why i need about 100 games .. thats what usually keeps me busy but still can be handled easy enough in my normal schedule

some people have more spare time though and might need more games .. i can imagine 600 games to be useful

then there are people who have another goal .. like being on the most moves list or action points .. they might need more games :)

it all depends on which games you play, which opponents, how much free time you have, and what your goal is :)

LionsLair:Enjoyment is extremely relative.  What I consider enjoyable may be totally dull to others and the reverse.  So, if someone has 2700+ games going, they must enjoy it for themselves. 

...at what point does a player have too many 'started games' going that one loses the joy of the game playing experience? ...I know many are happy with as few as 4-5 games, and yet others prefer 100-150... but could someone explain the joy of 2700+ ...at this point it would seem to be a full time job, not fun and games...
...not to single anyone out, but the player's games I refer to has only hrs to make several hundred moves... seems they would have to be here around the clock for months on end...
...to each their own I suppose, but I find it hard to fathom the joys of such a task... maybe someon could enlighten me on this subject....
...as always, thanx and happy gaming! :o)

Fencer:Yeah sure.  I totally understand.    Good job Filip.

Walter Montego: it went of game pages exactly on time cant be bad!!!

Walter Montego: yes the right program works for you... not for aNYONE ELSE....WHAT is needed here is the program to work for all.... you want what you want, we too want it but to work for all.

Fencer: That's true, but I'll be glad when the message box is off my Main Page. For me, a short line is good enough to explain what's happening with the clock and time outs.

Fencer: I like it!!!! Thanks!!!

King Reza: People used to ask me what the "game time is suspended" line means. I don't want to explain it to every single person anymore, that's why I make the message more descriptive.

Walter Montego: It is more a rare situation than a regular one. Just be patient for several more hours. Not a big issue.

BIG BAD WOLF: I too like the whole statement of time off and time to be on, keeps me from clicking to get the finish that may only be 3 words

BIG BAD WOLF: I also like being told about it. I've read it and wouldn't mind just seeing a little reminder near the top of the page. If I want the whole message, I wouldn't click it.

Actually I love that it now tells you when it will be turned back on. I'm not sure why 3 extra lines for about 24 hours would be a problem.

Walter Montego:I personally prefer the one-line message saying "Game time is suspended" which was used before.

Fencer: How about having a remove button for this message? Except that when it is clicked the information about when the clock will start running again is put to the right of our handles just to the left of the flags at the top of the page? Placed there it won't take any space that's used and it will be easy to keep track of. Just have the time for the clock re-starting without all the other text in that place after someone clicks the initial message.

Fencer: LOL yes. jus wondered why they are there? thats all i have never had them before. I thought maybe there was a problem. Looks like there is not

MadMonkey: The same issue with the database.

Fencer:  

Fencer: Did those Error messages have anything to do with it i sent you ?
They happened last night before it stopped and the night before

Groucho: I knew it would be a great fun to play with an unplugged cable.

Frankly I was glad the site was down for a bit.  I got a full night's sleep!!  ;)  

Summer Flame: Can't you just ignore it?

Summer Flame: Just had a nother Internal server Error at the bottom of one of my games. It says Internal and not External

Fencer: ok been there cannot find it go and check again

Summer Flame: Settings.

Summer Flame: its on your settings page right at the bottom - just remove the ticks from the boxes then save.

Summer Flame: Oh yes, i have that too

Fencer: ok where do i go to do that? and ty

Summer Flame: Disable banner ads. It's an external error, not ours.

Not sure if this right board but will put it here on some of my pages today at bottom in big bold black letters it has Internal Server Error?

pauloaguia: It will be automatically removed tomorrow anyway.

pauloaguia: The scrolling bit doesnt bother me, jsut usually there is a remove button, once u have read the message.

pauloaguia: not worried in the least just didnt see where to remove it so thought i ask

Fencer: Maybe you could put it on the left of the refresh setting. It would probably adjust to occupy an extra line but at least the game tables wouldn't scroll down so much, which is probably what bouncybouncy and imsoaddicted are worried about...

Fencer:

imsoaddicted: No way. You must see it and suffer.

imsoaddicted: yes i was thinking the same

to get rid of the red message about the sites downtime?

Blimey, i have just downloaded the new version of Firefox, i cant keep up its so damn fast
