CleverHunk, I'm not sure whether Fencer is considering any multi-player games, though I believe at some point he intends to introduce battleboats. If you have any suggestions regarding any games in particular, you could post them up on the Feature Requests board.

题目: Kevin's Membership Competition
I have deicided to hold a membership competition, but have decided against simply giving it to the person who is best at a certain game. I also wanted to keep it open to all pawns, regardless of whether they are in a tournament or not. Here's how it will work:
1. It is open to all brain pawns who are registered on the site as of the date and time of this message (to prevent people creating multiple accounts and entering more than once)
2. You will send me a message with the title "Kevin's Membership Competition". In it, you will tell me in 100 words or less why you deserve a membership.
3. The deadline for entries will be June 1 at midnight GMT. As long as the message is dated before then, it will be accepted.
4. There will be at least one winner, but could be more depending on quality and quantity of entrants.
5. Please try and use correct spelling, grammar and punctuation. If I can't understand it the first read through, i won't try and read it again.
6. Good luck everyone :-)

Is there a place that l can change my settings for the Db's?
When l come to the boards to read them lm reading responses before l read the question (if you know what l mean)
The first message is usually the last responce to a discussion, is there a way l can change my setting so the discussion lm reading is in order instead of haveing to scroll to the bottom and read up

Sorry, no there isn't. But its easy to scroll down quickly and stop when the 'new' sign disappears next to the post!

题目: Re: DB layout
But you do need to read them nearly every day as many boards get more than 50 messages each day. When this happens you will need to go back a few (sometimes many) pages but then the "new" markings disappear.

You can also change the number of messages displayed each time too although I have left mine to the standard 50. I think if you change this it changes all the boards and I expect the more messages the longer to download.

Cheers W.

题目: Surrender to Christine
As the consequence of a bet with my opponent Christine, I engaged myself to put this message on the general board. I lost about 30 games with her, and she is the best of us. I can't beat her. I had to resign to her several times, and for me this is the ultimate defeat.

I’m looking forward to the day I beat him myself – he’s an excellent opponent. :)

Best of luck to both of you!

Sorry buck you are having trouble. I just want to say that I hardly have trouble with the site. I am a night owl and when a certain other site is down or running slow most nights I stay right here. Maybe your pc is having troubles? Just a suggestion.

题目: Re: site... slow to dead
It slows sometimes yes, but overall I think it functions well. Maybe your just logging in at a peak time? It cant be cheap to run a site of this nature, but Fencer is saving for a new server, so come that time even peak periods will likely run smooth.

27. 五月 2003, 14:46:52

There is a page related to this topic: http://brainking.info/bugs.html.
Anybody who wants to complain about anything should read it first. I don't suppose that more messages like "this site is slow again" can make it faster.

for a period of about an hour today I had trouble making my moves-- aside from that one hour period, I have had no trouble for about a week straight. I think you are blowing the problem out of proportion.

we here in Toronto are having our downtime as well but like pipllo said even the best of us can have our bad times but we've all learned to deal with it. Maybe if we gave fencer a break he could catch up with other things then come back refreshed and him and liquid can kick some site butt :) there's my hubby and I's two cents lol :) good day everyone :)

and we're not looking for change

Once again, I agree with DK and with TTJazz! (Must have something to do with the second occurrence of a new moon this month...is that the opposite of a blue moon?)

Please consider this.
Brain King has huge potential. It already offers so much not offered by other games site. Buckwheat (and anyone else with a gripe) please visit the BrainKing Info page for more general information about this site. BrainKing info is located on a different server so will still be available during any lulls you experience. Definitely worth bookmarking. All credit to Fencer for actually caring enough about public relations to create that info site. Again that's one of the refreshing differences that Brain King has to offer! The creater of Brain King actually listens to suggestions.

If you have any queries please e-mail a customer service assistant.

Please don't bother Fencer with queries relating to site performance. In addition to raising a family and earning a living away from this site, he is already devoting much time to fixing the error caused by the driver (Connector/J) connecting the application and database servers that causes the downtime; It's just a bug; all sites experience bugs, and I think anyone logging in at regular intervals will agree that downtime is only a small proportion!

The huge majority of the time, Brain King is up and running and reliable!! This site has a great future. If you purchase a membership you will be doing something constructive towards that future in addition to reaping the benefits of multiple tournament entry (or creation), ability to join fellowships (or create them if you are a rook), no games limit for a rook or 50 games limit for a knight, the members' message board and the option to select which next game to go to when making moves (the new dropdown menu system just for paid members). Instead of the negative complaining view, please lets be positive! This is an excellent site.

I wish to thank both Fencer and Liquid for the many hours they dedicate to the future of this site! I would also appeal to anyone considering buying a membership to do so. The more paid members, the faster the hardware this site will be able to run from!

Oh no, what have I done?!! LOL! Blaze, your last post that was messed up.... I tried deleting it but instead it deleted the one BEFORE that! I can't even remember who it was that posted immediately before you! So whoever you are, if I've deleted your message I humbly apologise! I'll have to ask Fencer about the rogue message that I can't delete! :o)

题目: Hehe.
Thanks for trying anyway harley. Not sure what happened there, I posted a link with my original message, the server went down, then I refreshed and when the posting appeared the link was full of text that wasn't mine and the posting stopped short! I think two messages may have gotten combined into one when the server went down. I took a quick snap of the board at that time.

So can the owner of the following text please stand up and be counted:

"Is tihs a mild inconvenience? Perhaps. But this ios the only site I have seen that has rated turn based games with such a variety to choose from,so I consider it a worthwhile inconvenience."

Lol (and I really am having a giggle here!!).

题目: WoW~!!!
That was my post that got deleted. It was a somewhat long post too. BUt, not to worry-- by clicking "back" on my browser about 100 or 150 times, it returned me to the screen where I typed thre message about 5 hours ago, and so I was able to copy and paste it here! here is the original message:

<The worst consequence of a donw period is timing out in a game. BUt, this is avoidable. I realzie that in the best acse scenario, one would not have to worry about this at all. But, donwtime will happen occasionally, and one can easily prepare for it.

Many people, like me, are addicts, and are at the computer almost all the time and can make moevs at almost any opint in the day. For this reason, I do not fear timing out.

but, if you are a person who only makes moves once a day, or maybe twice a day, you are in greater danger of timing out, so you might want to consider playing games that have 3 or 4 days to move (or longer), then consider one of those days to be "emergency only" days. By that I mean pretend it isn't there at all. If you have a 5 day gamne, pretend it is a 4 day game, then if the site goes down for a full day, you have that extra day to make your moves. If you never let your games gte below one day to move, you will not time out even if the site is down for a full day (and it has not yet been done for more than 24 hours).

Is tihs a mild inconveniemnce? Perhaps. But this ios the only site I have seen that has rated turn based games with such a variety to choose from, so I consider it a worthwhile inconvneience. >>>>>>>>

Oops! I'm SO sorry Dmitri, boy is my face red!! LOL! My only defense is that I didn't actually TRY to delete yours.. I pressed delete on Blaze's message and yours went instead! Sorry again :o(
I'm sure its just a glitch, I've let Fencer know about it and I'm sure he'll find the problem in no time.

28. 五月 2003, 01:25:31
blazeinshore 
Really it's my fault. When the link in my original message got combined with someone else's message (clearly Dmitri King's) the message didn't have a 'delete' or 'edit' link on it for me so my hands were tied so to speak. I then messaged Harley asking her to delete the original. However it looks as though that wiped Dmitri King's posting, the link on my posting (that had text Dmitri King wrote) and left half my original posting. Definitely just a glitch. The server went down just after I hit send.

Sorry Dmitri King and harley.

Blaze

If that's a problem, you can always highlight the whole of the text you typed and hit "Ctrl-C" before you hit send. Then, even if it does freeze or stop working, you just hit "Ctrl-V" to paste it back later (assuming you don't restart your computer).

I remember saying something about how I agreed with Dmitri AND with TTJazz, (yes, I know, it's shocking) and wondering if this rare occurrence might have something to do with the fact that we're approaching our second new moon of the month (is that the opposite of a blue moon?). I'm an addict too, so I understand Dmitri completely... this time, anyway. LOL

harley: Please don't delete anything until I'll find out what is wrong :-) If there is something that really must be deleted, just let me know and I will do it manually in the database.
