I think its great that we are seeing so many new members!
Welcome to BrainKing!

ClayNashvilleTn:
it'll make my day!

bwildman: That sounds simple enough. It could tell him a lot. Could verify or discredit some of the things members have concluded.

Is that why the, How you like your crow remark?

ClayNashvilleTn: Fencer could do an "auto-request"after the red reminder stops on their main page.then his data base would record the individuals reason for not renewwing.

bwildman:It is a good idea, wonder how we could go about doing that?

Jules: hmmmmmmmm whats fencers private email add, maybe we all need to ask him for a raise?

ClayNashvilleTn: Yeah I remeber something like that once.. People were leaving because they weren't being paid enough.

The bosses doubled wages and the staff stayed.

ClayNashvilleTn: that is a great idea!!!
how does everyone like their crow?

or come back as someone else.

Your gonna get some that won't renew as a matter of course.

Uh! Why then is paid membership increasing?

ArtfulDodger: yep.. that might just be sooner than you expect.. haha..

ScarletRose: I know at least one pawn that would be back as a knight or rook if the fund raiser for him would begin soon!!! ;)

oh i was starting to think something like that

Saruman: 10 to 1 they were members when they joined the fellowship.. and their membies timed out .. and they couldn't renew for some reason.. Hopefully since it has been summer and beautiful weather.. that has something to do with the delay in renewing.. :)

they didn't renew their memberships, their name is there, but they cannot be active

how come a lot of pawn's are in fellowships?!?!?!? i thought they couldn't join fellowships

well....that was the only good reason I could think of.

yes if it starts before before it expires, or if you have enough empty slots and are not in another tourney

if you start a tourny and join it...and your membershp expires....are you stil in?

Saruman: Even more curious is why anyone would join them.

I wonder why people create tournament's that start in more than 1 year?????

Grim Reaper: Yeah, its about new application server and some performace changes. ;-)

Grim Reaper:

The site does seem pretty fast. I was just thinking about a move today and it showed up.

Fencer: Thanks Fencer ...and I made a lot of moves yesterday indeed but I started very early in the morning lol....when the site runs faster I can try to go for "the most active player ever"

myfanwy:Now just how did you know that??? Youes'es ain't suthern.

And 'aorta'.
Aorta mow the grass once in a while.

Jules: Same southern meaning as sorta.LOL

ClayNashvilleTn: Kinda?

lol .. Only if your going for the record and don't leave your seat.

myfanwy: Well Jules and I are kinda "tight" with fencer!

That could be a move a day. Scandalous!

myfanwy: A few milliseconds difference?

More then twice lol.. but this is getting.

But how do you guys know its blazing without an upgraded membership? Unless....

Jules: You are only right.............when I am wrong! Twice now! LOL

ClayNashvilleTn: Jules is ALWAYS right, you should remember that!! *ducks*

Jules: Dang, your right AGAIN! This is starting to get old! LOL

It's Blazing without an upgraded membership Clay, apart from minor glitches this site is always fast!!

Those with up graded memebership are experiencing blazing speed!

Peeky: Since you made 1874 moves yesterday, I wouldn't say it takes you hours to make your moves.
I agree there are some peak moments and performance issues but it's just a normal consequence of any significant system change. Of course, the source has been already detected and the improvement is being developed but it cannot be done immediately.

Jules: A bit slow ???? Awfully slow I should say . It's getting worse every day . Now I have to re-log in about every two minutes. Problems started after te revision of Tuesday evening and it's getting worse . It takes me hours to make my moves . Hope Fencer can do something about it as soon as possible.

Fencer:

harley: Soon, you say? Damn it ...where did I put the file?

Patience, Backoff! It'll be there soon

harley: Hey where's the NAF interview????

reza!!!!!!!!

http://brainking.com/en/Profile?u=9221

reza has kindly agreed to be interviewed next after several people asked for him. This should be an intersting one, I'm looking forward to seeing the final interview!

If you have a question for reza, send it to me by PM and I'll add it to his interview. These interviews wouldn't be possible if it weren't for all of you sending in questions. ANYBODY can send in a question, or 10 questions! No limit! I'll put them in some kind of order and send them to reza, who will answer the ones he wants and return them to me where they will be posted on the site, and you can see them by clicking the link above.

Get thinking about questions! And don't forget to tell me if its ok to add your name to the question - some people prefer to stay anonymous.

Oh well!!

Jules: it's been on the slow side over my way too!
