srnity: I don't think you would have to pay full price because you'r already paid members. Just remember

Uninvited: Ahhhhhh, you're a funny guy

You don't have to stay a Knight,you could always upgrade.

srnity: Send me too ludo games

prettymama: As a fellow knight, I feel your pain. I also joined a bunch of tournies and am now stuck at the mercy of slow-moving players...

WatfordFC: i'm trying to clear them but these people move if i'm lucky once aday most are turnies

prettymama: Try and clear as many of your current 50 as you can, then send me a load of hyper or ludo games . It can be done sweetie, as playbunny has proved.

i love that you are giving us a chance to win a rook membership the only downful i see with this is if your a knight you have no chance in winning no matter how hard you try as playing against rook that have unlimited games and we can only play at most 50 i'm try hard and keep moving down the list not up

nice improvement with the display of action points on the profile page.  ;)

Czuch Czuckers: Do you have trouble recognizing the difference between animals of different species?

As BBW said, let's get back on topic. Last friendly warning... :-)

Czuch Czuckers: ggrrrrrrrr

King Reza: Too bad that isnt the same as your governments! ;)
(the openly state your mind part!)

BIG BAD WOLF: You tellem tiger!!!

Can we please move the conversation over to General Chat please.

playBunny: But none is still in first place?

02i: " i mean where else do you find .."

Well, to be fair, GoldToken and DailyGammon are two that spring to mind. ;o) I won a membership at GT and DailyGammon is totally free, so there's no need to buy membership, but some players do put up prizes for tourneys. Friendliness at both sites is second to none.

(Yes, yes - it's a tie, lol)

02i:That wouldn't exist were  I not a member

btw, when i say friendly atmosphere , that doesnt just imply giving away prizes ...(that was just a example) but the people here are more friendly , less rude and and it just feels like you can openly state your mind and feel relaxed

i think this site is better than iyt ...(and im not saying this for the heck of it ) because for some cosmic reason the people here are much more friendly ... i mean where else do you find the site creator offering rewards for free and not just him but many members make tournaments with free prizes and i know few who have gifted memberships to others. i havent seen that anywhere else and i dont know if theres a formula for creating such an atmosphere either but nevertheless you see it here and thats a great infact the greatest achievement of this site in my opinion.

Dolittle: I agree it is a very good game site
i enjoy playing games there

pattey: I have played on IYT for years and find it to be a very good game site but I do not go on the message boards for the reason you speak of..too much nastiness!

King Reza: i agree you go to the other sites and people talk so nasty like itsyourturn and nothing is done about it

Templar:Me the same.  fencer is doing an extraordinary job with the site.  I appreciate all his effort too.

I just wanted to let it be known to the site - I support Fencer fully in every option, upgrade, action and so on and so forth - I also want to thank him for responding so quickly to a request i made to have your monthly action point history available on your profile.... awesome - and thank you....

Luke Skywalker: Opinion noted.

Fencer: somebody who knows my real name can use the action point statistics (which is stored "forever") to gain insight into how often I play games (instead of doing something else, for example). At least that's more related to privacy than some other options you have implemented.

However, I'm not going to argue this any longer; it's your site and you choose what to do; I hope I've said my opinion clear enough so this is my last post on the topic.

Luke Skywalker: Your real name, real address, credit card number, size of socks, that's the privacy. Action points are just numbers, nothing more.

Fencer: privacy

Luke Skywalker: What's the point of disabling action points?

As a pawn I cannot disable the banner ads.
Can I nevertheless disable the action points please?

I noticed that the "role" of Black Queen has finally been filled in :)

Stevie: it's his computation his way, no one likes ad's but his way to check things out rumming in full works with ad's. crazy me i'm not into all this point making deal as some of you are but i sure do love the traffic,lol. many more people playing more games and more moves in a day, i'm loving it when i am here. deside wheather you want the points or just plain jane games. the ad's help him and this site.

Fencer: Thanx for the opportunity. I had a great time this month and and loooking forward to lots more.

kaluza: And turned them on at the bottom.

Just to see what would happen, I turned on the banner ads at the top of the pages. Then BrainKing told me, "Your current settings do not allow you to receive Action Points. Click here to fix it." I clicked there, and it turned off the banner ads on the top of the pages.

How about viewing personal action points stats for past months?

playBunny: What exactly is lost when Fencer gives someone a membership? You had given up paying for memberships, yet you got one for free, what did Fencer lose by giving that to you?

WOW... 12 full days before the end of the month... I picked the winners... I am gloating... LOL

Cluck: Without knowing what Fencer's aims are, I feel certain that testing the system is not enough reason for having gone to all this trouble and putting up generous prizes.

Stevie Your membership entitles you to many things but there's no reason why it should provide free entry into Fencer's competition. It could but it's not a must. Rather than think of ads as being an insult to your membership rights, see that they are the entry fee to the competition. One which you don't have to pay if you don't want to be in the competition. If Fencer can recoup some of the costs of running these competitions through ad click-throughs that's surely not something you'd begrudge him, is it?

Czuch Czuckers:  It's his contest so I guess he can set up the rules anyway he wants  ;)  color me stupid, but I couldn't find the ads on my homepage!  duh.  I've since figured out where they are.  Frankly it's like they aren't really there and I do have the option of not participating.  ;)

BIG BAD WOLF: Thats a good idea.... it doesnt really matter though, since i think I am on here a lot, and play at least 700 moves a week, many weeks much more, and that wont even get me into the top 500 action points!

BIG BAD WOLF: Thats because you are sad hehehehe ;o) :op

Stevie: I keep the ad's on the bottom of the screen (and to the right now), and they don't bother me at all - if I was forced to see them at the top of the screen, then I would not even play with the action points - but where they are - at least I feel that they don't bother me much at all. (plus reminds me to click on them every once and awhile to help Fencer earn a few more cents)

Czuch Czuckers: you just know we are gonna get beat up for this dont you lol
But its true...

playBunny: he gets to test his system....

Stevie: I agree, one of the perks of paid membership is not having to see the banner adds, so why should that exclude us from any of the "action"?

Stevie: Why is Fencer having these competitions? What's in it for *him*?

I know you are gonna jump on me, but we as paying members,, should have the choice of banner adds or not, so why should we have to do something like see those addys just to get points.. Its wrong if you ask me..

Yeah maybe make none paying members (pawns) do it, but I thought there was meant to be advantages to being a paid member??

02i: Thank yu very much
