Konu: Re: Is there a nasty bug in the evaluation of multi-game matches?
Carpe Diem: I know that display error, but that was under different circumstances (I think when you tie or so). of course it could be the same effect here. Unfortunately, I tossed the event message; I'll check the next time.

Aganju: I think what you'll find is that although it claims that you lost and shows rating points going down for you, if you look closer you'll find that the names don't match the rating points, and that your points actually go up.
So it works something like this. Let's say you and I played, and you won the match but I won the last game. Let's also say your rating was 2100 and mine was 1900 before the game. It will say something like Carpe Diem won, 2100 (+13), and Aganju lost 1900 (-11). I actually lost the 11 I should have, and you gained the 13, it just gives the wrong names in the message.
This bug's been there since I started playing here. It's simply a display error, not a problem with rating points.

I think I found a nasty bug in the evaluation of matches that are set up for a fixed amount of games. Here is a match that was for 5 games, and I won it 3:2: Fevga (Aganju vs. Doris) However, the fifth/last game of the match went to my opponent (so I lead 3:1, and then it ended 3:2 - still a win for me). The event message I got, however, declared that *I lost*, and deducted some points from my rating (and gave rating points to my opponent).
I would guess that the code uses the result from the last game for its decisions, as - typically - the winner of the last game is the winner of the match - but not for this type of match.

Doris: I have just gone back to my old computer and since doing so the speed it back to normal. Long may it last. It must have been my internet provider.
Doris: Thanks. I have set up a new computer and it is still slow. However I might have to blame my internet provider as it has been slow when I am in some other sites.
Is anyone else having problems with this site being slow? I have used Firefox and Internet Explorer and in both browsers it is very slow playing in this site.
Konu: Re: Should brainking.com leave or stay on the internet?
I believe it was a proposal for an alternative referendum to Brexit. However one is a democracy whilst the other is an autocracy. Which is which is your guess!
Konu: Re: Should brainking.com leave or stay on the internet?
ketchuplover: The fate of one's possessions is not decided by public vote but by the will of the owner. Asking for a public vote for brainking.com to leave the internet is like me asking for a public vote for your PC to leave the physical World.
So, some people have to learn to recognize their limits and the rights of others, in my opinion.

Bernice: You made an assumption by stating " it was nearly sold but Flip wanted way too much money." Surely the price would have been mentioned long before it was "nearly" sold? So how do you know that Flip wanted way too much money? Someone must have told you?
Bernice: That can only be hearsay and in my opinion it is worth lots of money. You have to consider all the man power etc. in creating such a good site.

I got here 25th November 2002, the site was VERY new then (ony a couple of months & only had a few games). Its sad sometimes to look round or at my friends list and see how many players are no longer with us, ive met some great people here Still, as long as the sites here, i guess i will be, i just hope someone comes along who either joins Filip or takes it over just so the site will carry on and hopefully fix current bugs or better improve it. Right, thats my little bit.....back to games
I too have been here since Jan of 2003 and have no regrets. Fencer has done a wonderful job on this site and I thank him for all the work he has done to keep this site in good playing shape! Hope it will be around for many years to come.
I have been a paid member of this site since January 26,2003 and during that time I have played with no problems and I feel sure in that time things have happened to Fencer that would have kept me from playing but that has not happened, I will continue to pay and play as long as the site is up and running,thank you Fencer !
