Tank Battle is 11x11 with two-digit x and y coordinates. :-)

i like the sound of that game. it sounds like it could be fun.

Hmmm, it depends. Chess variants no bigger than 10x10 can be done very quickly :-)

I would like Brainking to have the Alekhine Chess (or click here) game. It's a very fun Chess variant and i would like to have it here.........

Fencer how would you rate the difficulty of adding a new game to the site...? Would this take you 5 minutes, 5 hours, 5 days, 5 months...??? I just want to see how difficult is to add a new game. And also can you give the probability of adding Alekhine Chess in the near future? I hope it's over 1% :-)

Just beside the "Message" box (the one you type a new message in) is a "Search in posts" box. You can type in any string you like to search all the posts for it. If you would like to search for a certain user, just type in their name. It'll return all of their posts plus any containing their name.

Edit: Ok, i just tried it and it doesn't find posts by that user, just posts with that user's name.

I believe there should be a board for IN MEMORY of the passing of family and friends...

I agree MM. I'd like to filter boards by "postee" name too. It just needs an extra search function on the right.

I did mean that sometimes you need to find posts from a particular person if complaints have been made about them.
Fair enough, if they were made just before you come online OK, but when a moderator comes on and has 200+ messages to check i think it would be handy to have.

how bout visible numbers on the messages.. I know it would be nice to say..

refering to post #333 on the GCB I noticed there was a big difference now in your play than months ago..

or

Oh Johnny cussed on Message 444

What if, instead of each member of a team play against each member of the other, the teams could play one game (or match of games), where the members of a team decide on what the next move would be? Working together like a team and not just a group of individuals working for each other the whole time.

When it was the turn of one of the teams, each team member would vote on the next move and the move with most votes would be the move for the team. Or the team members discuss the move between them and the team captain makes the move.

Another option could be for a particular player to play against a whole team for a bigger challenge. Just to see how good he/she really is.

I got the idea from www.letsplaychess.com from their "somebody vs rest of the world" matches and think could be something nice to implement here at BK.

Ooops I thought it read in the message box instead of on the board. **edited out annoying phrase**

I don't think Fencer can do that. if a message says "you are a nutcase" how would he knw that the "you" refers to you?

he could, however, find out all the nutcases in the database...

MMM: So why don't you just write "nutcase" to the search box?

I think he means like a certain phrase, where if someone calls you a nutcase, you can search to see who all called you that etc.

would be nice, but I don't think many would know how to use it

Eh, regular expressions?

just a sort of generalized grep on all messages

What do you mean by "a certain piece of text"?

Walter,
That works great with just one page of messages, but if you have multiple pages, the search feature would really be nice.

The second thing you ask for, "search in posts for a certain piece of text", is on my computer. It has nothing to do with BrainKing. It's part of the edit function. I'm using AOL and if I click the Edit button a window drops down and shows me at the bottom of a list of options; "Find in top window". If I click that, a little window appears and I can type in the text I'm searching for and then the find next button and search all the way through the top window. I'd be willing to bet that whatever operating system that you are using has this feature.

As for a particular person messages, I don't have that feature. I could use the edit feature I just told you about and put their handle as the text. Then it would find each message by them, plus any time someone else correctly typed that handle in one of their posts.

I think i mentioned this before you released BK 2.0 Fencer, but could we have an option to search for all posts by a particular person as well as just search in posts for a certain piece of text.

*sticks out her foot to trip kithara for harley* you know i owed you that one girl LOL

Does this brain chip have auto pass?


*runs and hides in Club WebTV

But for those of us who live here anyway, we don't need any kind of notification! For the rest of you.... *reaches for hammer*... kithara first!

As there been an idea for a games record page?
Exp: Longest Anti-backgammon game, Shortest reversi game, Most wins in a row, Ect...

- email forwarding of priv messages
- email forwarding of game results including PGN

And email notification cannot be seen in the SysTray?

:)

lol

Notifier doesn't send e-mails.

So what is a difference between email notification and SysTray Notifier?

ok thanks.

Bry: Yes but not everyone wants to receive the notification e-mails. It's just another option.

fencer - does this new feature not share the same purpose as turning the "email notify when opponent makes moves"? on the settings page?

oh goody, Lets use the BK chip in our brain to make our moves too!

OOooyyyyeeeee
Runs and hides cause she'll pound away just because LOL

Which harley installs with a hammer!

kithara: You don't even need a someone tapping on your shoulder. If you agree with installing a BK chip into your brain :-D

You don't even need a computer. Someone taps you on the shoulder as you walk down the street. :D

Ok, thanks Fencer :-) I get the idea and I'll try to download it again :)

Shortly, it can be useful for people who want to know if it's their turn to move, even without opening a web browser and logging in BrainKing.

Please PM Klokan for the details.

I dont seem to understand this new feature, brainking notify. I can't seem to get the one part to get downloaded. The zip file. Its taking forever and thought I would wait, but in the meantime, just what is it going to do?

<STOP IT!!!

Books db -------->

I read Harry Potter :)

And have you and Liquid miserable all over Christmas because you didn't get the presents you wanted? :)

And why can't you read Agatha Christie and John Grisham like everyone else?!

red dragon: Just say "stop it!" :-)

Sheesh, how can I moderate this thread when the boss started it? :D

it was all kinds of CANON camera gear...only the VERY BEST and MOST expensive of course HAHAHAHA

ah yes upchuck...but you have to be careful what you say...you could end up like a couple others on here...banned.
I feel that if someone sends you a filthy, dirty message and then puts you on enemies so you cant reply to them etc, the best way is to get Fencer to look into it.
He has the BIGGEST, STRONGEST, HEAVIEST button on BK ROFLMBO

I would like a feature that would pick the next lottery numbers with a guarantee that I would win.....
