the one that takes me to the next game of my choice.

I see :-)
Btw, bwildman didn't probably mention it but he had ordered 5 (in words, FIVE) BrainKing T-shirts at once. That's what I call THE SUPPORT! :-)

Субъект: Need info please

Fencer or whoever knows for sure: Do you lose the same amount of points if you resign rather than play the game out? Or do you lose less when you resign over playing it out? There is no way to check as once one of them is choosen, cannot take it back and try the other way.

Who?

Субъект: upgrading membership question

If I were to upgrade to rook membership, what happens to my existing knight membership ? would it just revert to my time left as knight when rook expired ??
As I have knight until next May, how does this work please ?

10. Августа 2004, 15:04:26

The rest of your knight membership will be used to extend your new rook membership.

10. Августа 2004, 15:10:29

Niki

sorry, but could you explain that more for me please ? quite possible I'm just being a bit thick today, but... :0)

10. Августа 2004, 15:18:01

You have 9 months left of your current Brain Knight level. If you pay for a new Brain Rook membership now, I will add, say, 6 extra months to this membership as a compensation for the rest of your previous membership.

10. Августа 2004, 15:21:19

Niki

I see.. excellent.. thanks for the explanation Fencer :))

10. Августа 2004, 15:22:21

Anytime :-)

10. Августа 2004, 15:52:32

Got booted off BK couple of times a mo ago, just after posting message in games

10. Августа 2004, 15:54:06

Yes, it can happen when the server is restarted.

10. Августа 2004, 16:00:01

rabbitoid

maybe that depends on the message contents
eh, Fencer, just how sensitive IS your server? and does it understand english? :))

10. Августа 2004, 16:01:13

LMAO@the rabbit

10. Августа 2004, 16:05:02

rabbitoid: I guess so, BrainKing source code is full of English words :-)

10. Августа 2004, 16:16:05

nope, full of American English and they cant spell properly LMAO center should be spelt centre LOL

10. Августа 2004, 16:20:27

Rose

Steve as much as we would love Web code to be proper english it was originally made for the understanding of American english. SO if you make a centre tag it wont work unless you spell it center. Sighhhh.. Should be universal huh?

10. Августа 2004, 16:21:52

should be clever enough to sort it either way shouldnt it LOL

Antje

i have a pawn playing in the team tourney's for five in line. how can that be?

10. Августа 2004, 16:37:56

His membership had probably expired after signing up for the tournament.

10. Августа 2004, 16:39:14

Antje

ok, no problem. but i think he will have to stay now to finish it out!!!

10. Августа 2004, 16:44:27

Yes, nobody can leave a team once it's signed up.

10. Августа 2004, 20:21:49

MidnightMcMedic

Hmmm lets see why the code is in American...uhh could it be a Bill Gates thing? ROFL

10. Августа 2004, 20:23:04

rabbitoid

certainly not! BK code is WORKING!

Субъект: Ratings

I've been kind of distracted lately... since when are our own ratings appearing in the Waiting Games page, by the game type?
I like it :) Thanks Fencer!

11. Августа 2004, 01:04:35

Fencer, I was playing a 5 wins match of backgammon and won the sixth game but it was given to my opponent and also the match with 3 wins. Is this a bug and would you fix it please.
Game ID 417315
Match ID 15991

Dolittle, game ID 417315 shows that your opponent won 3 games, and you won 2. So overall your opponent is the winner.

*edited to add* it was a 5 games match, which means you play 5 games, and whoever wins the most games, wins overall.

11. Августа 2004, 01:13:31

Are you sure the match ID is right? Match 15991 shows a game that doesn't have you as a player!

11. Августа 2004, 01:21:39

Yes, it's right! All other 5 wins matches that I have played mean exactly that. You must win 5 games to be declared the winner...not 3.

11. Августа 2004, 01:24:12

Duh! I looked again harley and it was a 5 games match, not a 5 wins match!
Thanks for your help anyway!!

11. Августа 2004, 01:30:43

LOL no worries, easy mistake to make.

11. Августа 2004, 02:18:17

However, I did win that last game but it went to my opponent..oh well!!

11. Августа 2004, 02:20:51

But the last game you won brought your total won games to 2. Your opponent had already won 3. Which made them the overall winner of the 5 games.

Can anybody point how to define vacation days ?

11. Августа 2004, 19:14:03

Go to settings...link on the left, once there go to calendar..then click the days you want as vacation ones :o)

12. Августа 2004, 05:39:47

Or if you use row layout, the link will be at the top.

12. Августа 2004, 11:16:12

Субъект: Do we need this page ? lol

Fencer: When we take a game out of the Waiting room we get a red 'You have accepted the game invitation' message at the top of our main page.
Could we not just get a simular message when sending a game invite rather that going to a page saying:
New game has been successfully created.
You can find the list of all games you have created on the main page at Your invitations waiting for response table.
Return to Main page.
There seems to be no real need for that page if we could just have a message at the top of the Main page.

12. Августа 2004, 14:01:23

Yes, it can be changed in this way.

12. Августа 2004, 14:27:26

Ive won a couple of games today and even though bkrs and ratings change etc, not all have made my Wins total change. they have been rated and counted games etc.

12. Августа 2004, 14:30:55

just happened again

12. Августа 2004, 14:30:59

MadMonkey

lol - I am glad you mentioned that Steve. I noticed it on my total wins yesterday after Caoz posted his wins, it never seemed to change, but has today.....hmmmmm

12. Августа 2004, 14:31:12

There are no errors in log files. But I will write a script to recalculate all stats regularry.

12. Августа 2004, 17:08:24

MadMonkey

Can you leave the games lost the way it is, as that does not move either LOL :o)
