Backgammon - I created 9 new games, with me playing as white in all of them. Why do I not move first (or second) in all of them? as i'm playing the same colour.

harley needs a hot key for

Thanks Bernice, I was looking for that one

bumble: and by the look of it, it keeps your coat sparkling clean also :)

...thats for you Harley LOL

BerniceC:
Of course I use Fairy Non-Bio because it's huggably soft and oh so kind to my hands.

bumble: hahahaha...and rinsed in Fosters :)

BerniceC: Stop washing everything in 4X.

Fencer: No ;( dont use special detergent....damn...never even thought of that :(
Harley: always wash t-shirts inside out....you have to over here or the sun would fade them in 2 secs :(

Looks as tho I will have to check out washing liquid and get one that is "paint" friendly :(

thanks

myfanwy: oh nooooooo!!!..i must owe Fencer 1,000's by now then?...cos i natter non stop..LOL..yoo hoo Mr Fencer

Tulip: Sorry Tulip, its £1 a word for you. That's £7 added to your bill.

Abinadi:..i talk to mine here for free?..;o))

Abinadi: I would think that skype may be nice with a real time game such as on yahoo or something but with turn based games it is kinda pointless

Take a look at the new Yahoo group which tells how you can talk for free to the people you're playing Backgammon with.

yes, of course..

rod03801: Feb 6th for me. Just depends on your timezone.

nobleheart:

Go to the News archives and scroll down to February 7.

ClayNashvilleTn: hey clay,can I ask a question?you seem descent & knowledgable.I saw the MSG's here...do we have to change uour password?I tried to find the old server news item..couldnt find it?

im not pc friendly or even got one but when Fencer posted ages ago to just change nic's..to the one you had even I understood that and did it!..heheee!..hi all!

Eriisa: Read again Glob mod ..the complaint was Fencers' about all the emails people have sent him about the passwords.
sheesh

Well, I didn't log in until this morning, so I guess I can have my say.......

I didn't think a simple comment from Fencer was complaining. And the funny thing was, I went a updated my password and still have to reset mine. Gee, it took a whole 30 seconds. So what's the big deal. Sounds like a mountain out of a mole hill to me. Sheesh.

Hello People!

JamesHird: Take a break there rookie, fencer already has permission to look anywhere he wants to ;)

"CHILDRENNNNNNNNNNNNNN ! ! ! ! !" I am putting all of you in time out until ya'll are just a little more respectful!

harley: no more please

I just couldn't resist the opportunity to use the pirate smiley!

Stevie: and its about 7 hrs since Fencer started this topic, slow connection Harley?

Andersp: I know, I was having trouble getting the smilies page up!

Andersp: would have been 7 seconds had it been me LOL

harley: You need to improve Glob Harley...took you 7 minutes!!!

It be a mutiny! Arrr!!!

Andersp: it is fine for you to give permission for fanecer to check the dialogue in your games, but before giving permission I think you should also get permission from your opponents too otherwise it would be a serious breach of confidentiality

Andersp: Pray, pray, pray!

Fencer: I thought freedom to speech was allowed even i your country now...i didnt complain YOU the site owner complained because people have asked you questions. Feel free to check my games and read the support ive got from other players and what they think about your attitude!

Fencer: why not add a little reminder in font size 24 on the login page? save you a lot of email

Andersp: I dont think he called anyone ignorant, to be ignorant requires a lack of knowledge, I think plain stupid or lazy or both describes these users best ;)

"should not be surprised if...." well maybe they were not sure "if" but to write him a PM in complaint sure describes "surprise" to me!

Andersp: Why am I not surprised that you were the first one to complain?

reza: It's not just your oppinion

Andersp: It's just my personal opinion but each one of those 14760 registred users should have payed attention to the server news had they been interested in the site and the games they were playing.

Again I repeat this is just my opinion!

pauloaguia: i believe that portugese was added recently

farmer sam: English and Czech were the only official BK languages at the time. Someone using the site, surelly had to know one of the 2

"However, who follows this instructions now, will not be surprised if his password suddenly stops working after the upgrade is performed."

maybe some users thought that if means that it doesnt must happen

Maybe important information like that should be posted in all the major languages not just English and Czech.

reza: 14760 registred users and Fencer complains because some havent changed their password. If he is so busy he can use his valuable time to better things than posting arrogant messages...thats my point.

Andersp: True! But sometimes they (we) really are!

Fencer: wonder how long i can keep my job if i start calling the customers "ignorant"

It's interesting how many users had ignored the request to change their password which was posted to Server News two months ago. Now they are sending me "HELP ME!" e-mails and don't understand why their old passwords don't work anymore.
Isn't it typical? Until nothing goes wrong, they don't bother to read any instructions.

Bernice, it helps to turn the t-shirt inside out when washing too, then its not rubbing against the drum and other clothes in the wash.

Bernice: Have you used a detergent which is suited for painted things? Like, uh uh uh, Ariel Color or something like that.

BerniceC: I'm in Southern California. Which has to be one of the printed T-shirt capitols of the world. There's lots of different brands of non-printed T-shirts to choose from too. IMported from everywhere. The port of Los Angeles and the port of Long Beach are some of the busiest in the world. No telling how many sweat shops ship their stuff through here, plus there's plenty of domestic manufacturers around here too.

BerniceC: Don't confuse the quality of your T-shirt with the quality of the screen printing and inks used for it. A lot of screen printed things don't give the proper care for washing them. Also, if there's puff ink on it, it has to be heated after made to set it. These sparkels you mention might also have had to have been glued on. Then there's you soap or detergent and if you add other things to the wash and other clothes too. IS the shirt in good shape, but the printing getting bad? Or are both getting bad? 12 washes ain't too many, but you made it sound as if you'd worn it a hundred times.

Walter Montego: the quality of the shirt isn't a problem...the original print is as good as it was....It is the fancy sparkle overlay that is peeling away....why use it to detract from my otherwise perfect t-shirt:)
