TarantinoFan: yeah,same here & boards jumping about...

@ pages that crawl down the screen!

And it is only this site.

pauloaguia: Right.

"Snoopy": It also used to delete tournaments if, after removing, there wasn't enough people for it to start...
Maybe it was Fencer's way to fix this bug, and that's a side effect.
(just wondering...)

alanback:
well actually i didnt because the tournament
should of started anyway as there was still 26 players in it and i already know it started 1 hour later
im just trying to find out why its happening like this now
before when ppl were removed from tournaments the tournament still started on time im just wondering why there is now a 1 hour delay

"Snoopy":   Sounds like you answered your own question.

whats happening with tournaments these days
this tournament
new game mancala
was suppose to start 9 mins ago but because 2 players didnt have enough spaces they got removed and the tournament got posponed
anyone any idea why?

ScarletRose: No. Only the triple version.

Is dice poker going to get a Bonus square after the top section? just curious..

AbigailII: I forgot that! Thanks.

naughtypawn: Black has a move. It's *recycle* chess, so black can take its own pieces.

I think there is a bug in this game: Ajedrez Reciclado (naughtypawn contra kid_game_2001) Black hasn't got any moves...

Gabriel Almeida: I posted some ideas at some point somewhere.. I think, but can't remember.

But I would love to see the Brains & points system be merged - that is you gain brains for moves & such - very very small amount. The biggest difference is remove any true value from the brains - that is don't exchange brains for paid membership. But replace it with non-value things like for example, a certain amount of brains can buy an extra vacation day. A certain amount of brains can give you the option to post (an approved) message to either system news or the blog for a day. (great way to advertise your fellowship or tournament.). A certain amount of brains could give you a fun color of rook like purple rook or something. Many things could be thought of to be in the "store" - all of which does not cost Fencer anything other then time to set it up. Kind of like a "money" system - which of course take any true value away from it so it does not turn this site into a betting system which some block.

Anyway, I know I had some plans written up at one point - I think might still be in my notepad. My opinion - scrap the current brains & points action system, and turn it into something that will be used to it's full potential.

Hi. This is just a suggestion, in my opinion (and BBW talked about that recently), brains system is not as develloped as it could be. If more people had brains, they would be more useful (more users envolved, more activities using brains). I think one of the next months action could be something like "buy or renew a membership and you receive XXXX brains. I don't know, 200, 500, 2000, for a knight/bishop, rook or black rook... what do you think?

Less than 2 hours left.

Fencer, thank you for brining this little gem to BrainKing.

pauloaguia: I wondered where u had got to

joshi tm: Yes.

Fencer: Since the red code will no longer appear anymore, can a black code still act as a red one (if you're extremely lucky)?

Oceans Apart: Well (1) I normally don't pay attention to the Brains system - I think the Brains system could be improved into a GREAT system, but as it is now - it does not impress me so I normally don't even pay attention to the Brains. The only reason I posted was someone below mentioned it. But in my case (2), I probable did not get it since that person did not purchase the membership themselves - but it was part of the Easter deal and I did something a little different with the memberships I bought and split them up some - so since the system did not do it all automatically where it probable is set to award brains, since it was done manually by Fencer - I'm sure the Brains is not something he normally thinks about. So if he reads this and decides that I deserve some Brains - Great. If not, O'well - as the system is now, Brains don't mean much to me.

BIG BAD WOLF: SO why havent u had yours then, because you are entitled to them

Oceans Apart: Well that is what it says on the Brains Page: http://brainking.com/en/Brains

BIG BAD WOLF: Did people used to get Brains then when they referred people?, i dont know, you have been here longer than me

Oceans Apart: I always forget about Brains. I've referred 11 users to the site, where 1 is now a rook - and I did not get any Brains when that user became a rook. (Sure, I paid for the rook membership for them.... but they are now a refered user who is currently a paid member.)

Hannelore: I stand to be corrected but i dont think Fencer was offering brain credits with the Easter Special

does anyone know if we were suppose to get out brain credits with the easter egg special?

Thank you for all the new additions to the filters that you've added, Fencer.

AbigailII: Whoooooooooa - Awesome

On Friday the 13th of October 2006, the tournament friday 13th will it be lucky or unlucky for you? started.

Today, Friday the 13th of April 2007, I won the Spider Line4 section of that tournament.

Now let me finish drawing my pentagrams....

Thankyou all for your help. Binabik and Snoopy I get it now. Not happy but I get it!

I'll go make my move now!

"Snoopy": OMG, thanks for the warning!

Binabik:great minds think alike

TarantinoFan: You can't make that move because if you do, you will not be able to use the 4 for the other piece. You have to use both dice if you can... So, the game forces you to move one piece first 2 spaces, and then 4 spaces, in this case from space 13 to 11, and then from 11 to 7.

TarantinoFan:
because you must use both dice so the only way to do that is if you move 13 to 11 and then 11 to 7

lol i have deleted my postVikings:

TerantinoFan: never mind, obviously you have

TarantinoFan: have you tried swapping the die?

TarantinoFan I have had a look havent a clue why, very strange, put it in bug list

Can someone please tell me why I can't move my #16 to #14. The dice is showing a 2. I want to move a single pip on top of a pile of my own pips. It will allow me to move #13 to #11 only. I can't even choose to move #3 to #1

Backgammon Race (DAK vs. TarantinoFan)

Eriisa: surely autopass is a great option to have and of course both players would have to agree to it to make it part of the game they were playing. It would just give those the choice if they wanted it. Players can then opt not to use it if they so choose also.

Eriisa:  Thanks, now I get the joke :-)

Its on the Ludo board.....


"člověče, nezlob se" which means "man, don't be angry"

Eriisa:  How does the Czech name translate into English?  The online translator I used could not translate any of the words.

Eriisa:

Oceans Apart: I would prefer autopass in Ludo, but a thought struck me (and it hurt too! ) but if we didn't have to take 20 turns to move out, it wouls ruin the Czech name of the game.

Oceans Apart: I would play Ludo again if 1) there was autopass for Ludo, and 2) my opponent wouldn't have to agree on autopass.

Since 2) is likely not going to happen, I don't really care whether Ludo gets autopass or not.

srnity: Yes of course it counts, the more people that would like it, the more Fencer might add it
