Rod: There is also a known bug on some red numbers. If you have a look at BrainKing.info it will tell you the ones known so far.

Please note what this board is for:
Board for everybody who is interested in BrainKing.com itself, its structure, features and future.
Kevin has explained his situation and as long as his games are played within the time limits he has done nothing wrong. Fencer has also explained about the idea of setting different types of tournaments in the future (on the Tournament Board) without using vacation days or weekends.

rod: (101/1) 101 = the games it is your move in & 1 = 1 game invite waiting for you.

Fencer: I can't see a note about this anywhere, but you may know already.
Have you tried to 'Hide Message Archive' at the bottom of you game page ?
It just sends you back to your Main screen. I only knew when a Pawn messaged me saying they were trying to get theres back and this kept happening to them.

I did the same Jason. That was down to me though. I accidently clicked the box to Remove the team, but that was when we were still using BK 1.0, and i had a copy of the members on BK 2.0 lol :o)

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.

Im fine thanks Cindy (and others that missed me lol), just VERY tired (and thats because of work sadly, not pleasure LOL)

Never found that bug while testing it ROFL
Great to see nearly all things are working ok though :o)

BBW, i think that sounds a better idea. Just in case anyone knows they are getting close to there membership expiring, and for some reason loses access to there (or any) PC or may have other personal or finance problems. A script that would register how long it was since there membership ran out, and if it was more than a month for example to then remove them from fellowships.

LOL - ok :-)

Fencer: I have just had a PM from a pawn about how they get into a fellowship (in fact i had another a while ago). I have explained that they can not, and the only reason they are there is they are ex paying members who's membership has expired.
Will BK 2.0 remove these pawn accounts from fellowships or will the Boses have to do it themselves ?
It is a good point as the person pointed out, it does seem to anyone new looking at fellowships that pawns certain pawns are allowed in fellowships.

I presume that is what they are say IMCK. Normally, Fencer will reinstate a game if asked (but both players should agree) and this nomally only when there has been a site problem, webTV (like recently) or even a personal one.
Whatever the reason, it should be agreed by both players.

Fencer: Have you decided on a set design for the t-shirt like when you had the poll about it or have you a new one ?

That would be great, to have your Username on it as well, guess we could get that printed on after though if we wanted it.
(MadMonkey on the back with a giant Ape ROFL).

ROFL @ myfanwy LOL

20 EUR just over £13 ?? (i think)
BK 8.0 will be out by the time i get one with my penny saving ROFL

Do you have a price yet for them Fencer (inc p&p of course). Have to start penny saving (got 7p already).

Linda - read the .info page , there is stuff about the problems there for webTV users :o)

Thanks Blue ;o)
I will pass it on.....

Fencer: Could that be added to the .info page as webTV users seem to be able to get there.

Blue: Whats the 'Storage Bin' on webTV used for ?

I have goodfoods on Messenger, he can get to the Main page, but thats it. I have told him to do everything you told me to Fencer.

ellie: Empty your cache and switch off & back on - should help :o)
(fountain of knowledge me lol)

Must be talking about my pic AD - or Liquid's (thats a great one) LOL

I suggested that earlier Backoff (well not your one LOL), but Fencer & Liquid need total access, also that it needed to be where they are. I don't know the exact reason :(

Is anyone online using webTV ?
If so are you having any problems with the site ?

I got a pencil (and rubber & sharpener to help).
oh and some paper :-D
Pretend it is an exam and you have 1 hour to finish LOL

Seriously, can we test it elsewhere first though ?

Well take BK 1.0 off then i say, there are only a few here. If it don't work we can snapshot back.
*takes a quick snapshot LOL* :o)

Fencer & Liquid: chatty has made you a nice big breakfast in the Madhouse if you want some :o)
You deserve it !!

Its like waiting for a bus here at the moment LOL

aaww Liquid's gone as well - going to be lights out soon :o)

hmmm and i only just got up an hour ago.....

ROFL, good point, what's he doing over this way. Probably trying to nick my mouse lol

Faster than a speeding train whooooooooooooooosh

*Fencer flies past Berkshire on his way to Liquid's* LOL

Josef, put the kettle on :-)

SOD - get the game reinstated that timed out if you still have the game number, you said you and others were having problems at the time :o)

In fact no lol, cariad told me you keep taking money off her racing horses on the beach LOL, in fact you keep taking money off her in all your forms of gambling ROFL

bumble: You running a book on how long it takes to come back up ?

aawww SOD - things will be fine, it will be back b4 you know it :o)

Auld Lang Syne

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days o' lang syne?

Chorus
For auld lang syne, my Dear
For auld lang syne
We'll tak a cup o kindness yet
For auld lang syne

And surely ye'11 be your pint-stowp
And surely I'll be mine
And we'll tak a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne
For auld lang etc

We twa hae run about the braes
And pu'd the gowans fine
But we've wandered mony a weary foot
Sin auld lang syne
For auld lang etc

We twa hae paidlet i' the burn
Frae morning sun sill dine
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
Sin auld lang syne
For auld lang etc

And there's a hand, my trusty feire
And gie's a hand o' thine
And we'll tak a right gude-willie waught
For auld lang syne
For auld lang etc

and WELCOME BK 2.0 (soon)

im there :o)

Can you leave the test BK 2.0 running during the change so i have something to pass the time away with LOL

Good Luck :o)

*looks at Liquid, did that alarm go off lol* :-)

Fencer: Just heard www.chessworld.com advertised on the radio here so i went and looked. Seems to be all sorts of chess merchandise & sites (Pogo & IYT) links on there.
Is there anyway BrainKing can get on there or would you have to pay ? :-)

Looks like a webTV problem then as Explorer & Netscape are working fine. Must be something here effecting just webTV, unless anyone else has a problem. Take note of any timed-out games, and PM Fencer.
BK 2.0 is still down to be released Saturday morning, BUT nothing there should be effecting anything here as they are totaly seperate sites at present.

Are you both using PC's ?

awwww SOD what you done now LOL - it must be your system settings somehow :-(
How long has it been doing it ?

As many of you would have seen Usurper (Greg) is now back using his old i.d.
As he can not post on boards being a pawn, he has asked me to post for him.
To all of his old friends and game players, please would you spare a minute to read Usupers Profile

LOL - may need them at the end of June :o(

Great - whats my Credit Limit ROFL
oh, and can a have non-returnable loan as well :o)

Personally i would say its not realy worth it Fencer. With all the copy/pasting that goes on and people allowing others to access there accounts here, is it really worth it ?
Although saying that, $199 spread over all the Rook members is less than a dollar a year.

Again yes in BK 1.0. Maybe all pawns in fellowships should automatically be removed from them after all they do get a reminder about there memberships expiring.

Nope, can only make another Rook Boss (or Fencer) in BK 2.0 :-)
Dont know about the dreams one though as she is already a pawn there.

In BK 1.0 i think so Niki. I think its different in BK 2.0 or should be. Shall i go and see if i can make a pawn BB of the Madhouse there ?

Well 'dream' (Big Boss) of The Dream Team has not been here since June 2003, yet the fellowship is still there. Most people have left it now, but there are a few left.
Maybe the Members of a fellowship should vote on what should happen.
In dream's case she did state she was leaving, but no one offered to take the Fellowship over and she did not nominate anyone.
So i would say, mark the fellowship is "inactive" until new Big Boss candidate appears, and would have to be appointed by you Fencer.
