Fencer: I cannot find information about this -> http://brainking.com/pl/PaidMembership?p=1

aaru: Chaosu is playing another team tournament and as Brain Bishop member he cannot play 2 at once.

aaru:Is a member already signed up in another side?

I cannot sign my team ( Polish Pente Power ) for the Keryo TT. Why?

Snoopy: you answered right Snoopy, Hrqls misunderstood the question
Thanks Snoopy

Hrqls: depending on what side of the page he was talking about both our answers are correct..lol

paully: they were brain knight or higher when they achieved their top moves

since then they became a pawn .. but they are still on the list

so they did appear when they were brain knight or higher, to remain on the list you dont have to be brain knight or higher

paully: no now achievements are on the site it shows all players on this list
you never know a pawn may head the list one day and get the

The most active users
This list displays the players who made the most moves yesterday (28. August 2010). Only the users with Brain Knight or higher membership level can appear here.

This is interesting as it says only Brain Knights or higher can appear, however, there are quite a few pawns on the list. This may be a bug???

are all these funny things because of the new BK3?

why is this tourney still in the "to be started" category?

Tuesday: Oh no i would never do that my dear

funny lights on no posts

Snoopy: yes, but what a waste......thanks

Bernice: if you mean Abigail for some unknown reason she decided to create hundreds of the same types of tournaments when she was a rook and then left

why can a pawn have hundreds of tournaments on the tournament page ranging from a 100 day start date up to about 500 day start date.....and he/she hasnt got one game going. Is this another a****star?

is on top of the board list again today

skipinnz: It's intentional. I am testing something.

I suspect this process is broken as the standings haven't changed for a few hours.

Fencer:

is on top of the boards again today

Behemoth Chess - Other then knowing basic chess skills to keep your king safe from your opponent, when I'm stuck playing this game - my only strategy is to keep my king safe from my opponent and hope the Behemoth takes my opponents king first.

Hyper Backgammon - just for the fact there only one 3 pieces, it's hard to use any sort of "blocking" or "attacking" strategy - just deal with what the dice give you.

Ludo - It can have some strategy if you can get more then 1 pieces on the board at a time, but the majority of the time it does not have much strategy at all - just move the only piece you can (or pass). [Can't wait for Fencer to bring some "Hyper Ludo" to the site - get pieces out of "home on a 1 or 6" - and you roll 2 dice EVERY ROLL, and like Backgammon, can use each dice for a different piece if you want - will get more pieces on the board, allow for more strategy - and speed up the game.] *HINT HINT FENCER* - Ludo the most popular game, to make a quicker version would probable be very popular.

volant: Nah yah got it all wrong, it's the ppl who wait until their opposition get so bored that they give up. That takes skill or strategy. LOL

Artful Dodger:ludo gets my

Artful Dodger: Outside of joking, I’d nominate Maharajah Chess (just the black player, obviously). Ludo deserves a mention too as a game that usually relies on luck more than skill.

"GERRY": That was a joke. In fact, something like Hyper Backgammon would be the best one.

Come people get your money out of your pocket's & help Fencer out

rabbitoid: lol...Fencer seems to have that down pat!

Fencer: Hmm, I tried to look up "earn 360 euros without skill or strategy". It came back with "about 4 690 000 results (0,53 seconds)". You can google anything!

Artful Dodger: "Buy A Black Rook In 60 Seconds" and all variants.

Of all the games here, which games require the least amount of skill and strategy to win? :)

Ok, thanks WellyWales, Bernice, Vikings, and Hrqls for the replies.

stargood: you need to complete 4 rated matches to obtain a provisional rating (shown in italics) and 25 rated matches to obtain establilshed rating

also keep in mind : a match counts when it consists of more than 2 moves

Bernice: 4

stargood: ***Do I have to win or at least complete a certain number of games of a given type before I receive a rating in that game?
***

yes you do and Im sorry I have no idea how many....someone will let you know tho :)

stargood: http://brainking.com/en/FAQ?ht=20

I am wondering why I have not received a rating yet in some games. For instance, Five-in-Line, I have won 3 games so far but I am still unrated for that game. I know that they were rated games because I did not check off "Unrated" when I created the game, and also in the win message it showed my opponents' ratings being adjusted, but I was still shown as "Unrated". Why? Do I have to win or at least complete a certain number of games of a given type before I receive a rating in that game?

Bernice: I'm pretty sure it's not an actual human being, per se. I think it's an account that got through. It doesn't even have a "first login". We have seen several like this recently. Most of the time they have been random letters, with odd links. They are never back again after the first time "they" post on a couple boards. I know I personally have deleted at least 12 posts over the last couple of months.

Bernice: Cyber attack!

mkaymer: dont you realise that your post will be deleted? you are wasting your time here

Anyone interested in the game is welcome to join the new fellowship. I don't know exactly where to advertise.

Fencer: any change that makes the site faster is a vote from me. If the GUI changes, then I will learn to get used to it but the #1 improvement in my book is speed

"GERRY": my favourite Cardinal will surely second the suggestion

Fencer: You should leave it like this

"GERRY": BrainKing does it automatically when it detects a problem.

Fencer when you suspend the timeout checking on this site it always runs very fast is there a reason for this? Sending messages are timing out for me tho but games are very fast every thing is great now

mkaymer: ummmm, a brain for one.
