life is to short and that it can be hard to run a site. Cause what 1 person thinks may be gr8888t other may think they are not thinking in their right mind. If we all start jumping on the site head people there would not be much to saying we don't need this any more and just pull the plug and if that is done we all lose out of this gr888t and fun site. With BK2.0 starting up soon as we have heard over and over again. Can't we at least give it some time before we start fighting about it. Well this is about all I have to say for now so BACK to my CORNER I go.
:O{P``````

Fencer: No rush, let it take 1 month no need to be pissed because people want to know the rules.

Antje: Did i say girlfriend?...of course i meant girlfriends :) *krb*

Andersp : KRB ?

We all need to wait for Brain King 2 to start up then if we have problems then we should address them, for now lets play are games and have fun :o)

I know Fencer will take care of all the little gliches after it starts up and people are talking about them

I think there's been some beta testing going on. Most of the gliches/bugs should be gone by the time we see the finished product.

I want to know why the user agreement is not valid?
What is up with that?
Haven't people been banned and removed and such, for breaking the user agreement?
How was anyone supposed to know that it was not valid?
Can anyone help me understand what the ... is going on here?

IMupChucKingC, Its just one point in the user agreement that hasn't been fully explained. Wait for BK2 and I imagine it will be corrected along with a lot of other things.

I want that "everyone beats Backoff @ Atomic Chess" glitch fixed please.

Thanks :)

thanks Fencer for a great site!! the old BK has had its' troubles and quite a few have left or not renewed their Brainrookships, but those of us who have hung in there will be rewarded soon!! just get it right!!! and now i turn the keyboard over to my wife, myway, so she can comment!!!!!!!! thanks again Fencer!!!!!! ;^}

I have to agree with my husband that this is a graat site! They have had their problems in the past and seem to have fixed them to a point. Can't wait to see what happens with BK 2.0 series. I'm sure there will be some bugs that will need to be taken care of, just like any new program. The only thing that bothers me is the nitpicking that goes on in this site. I've said this before when the problem with MM and Stevie came up, I think there is enough fighting going on in this world without people fighting on a game site. This is suppose to be fun for everyone. Of course there are people that don't get along with each other. If you don't get along with them, put them on your enemies list. That is what it is there for. The fighting, arguing, disagreeing, etc. needs to stop. Why can't everyone get along anymore? I'm sure (at least I hope) things will calm down. Let's just play and enjoy ourselves. This should be a past time for people to enjoy and relax and talk to people they have met on this site that they call friends. My husband and I have met quite a few people that we are happy to call friends from this site. Hopefully you feel the same way. Fencer, keep up the good work!

Is there any type of rules like in Chess where if both players make the same move for more then 3 times in a row, the game can be considered a draw?

Fencer...will there be music...I like music...
something blusey....or easy Jazz...huh...what...
runs from Fencer who has had last nerve shredded and is fingering a very sharp knife...Nevermind...
:}

now theres a contridiction in terms!! LMAO
it is only used when it serves the purpose of our fearfull leader who obviously is too busy fishing to fix a boat.At least the promises are down to a week now rather than a month.

ROFL @ cole.

anyone else getting slow browsing of site?

nope, not right now, was a couple of hours ago though

I'm getting the white screens, and the "did not respond to request" stuff...

Ive had "not respond to request" too today, but thats on the feature request board! LOL

Site is faster now than it was earlier

Mine is a bit faster but not like normal :o((

what broke for last couple of hours?

don't know, but I couldn't get on.

Yes, site is kinda wobbly this morning here too! (NJ-USA)

All my letters and boards have got bigger. Is that from someone playing with this computer? If so, how do I undo it?

Go to 'view' at the top of your screen and select 'text size'.

Top of the computer above the BrainKing part? Has it got a picture? This computer's in japanese and there's nothing that looks like "view" written.

Oh! On my computer it's on the bar above the 'home' and 'search' symbols - the bar contains, from the left, 'file', 'edit', 'view', 'favourites', 'tools' and 'help'.

Great, I found it, thanks.

want a fun pratical joke to play at work, take the ball out of the mouse in the next cube. makes for hours of fun!!!

If you have a scrool wheel on your mouse, the text can change also if you hold down the "CTRL" key while you move the mouse wheel. (This happens to me often)

All my boards are bigger and some board areas are missing. I can't see where my opponent may be lying in waiting! I can't play my games because of this flaw.

it must be the MONSTER.....BK2.....

awwww SOD what you done now LOL - it must be your system settings somehow :-(
How long has it been doing it ?

All of my backgammon games are like that too, totally unplayable.

Are you both using PC's ?

To MM and others.....I am using a webtv and I haven't changed any of my settings since I first registered on this site. Webtv users are very limited compared to PC users. I've had one game time out because I couldn't play and more may follow if things don't get straightened around. LOL... I'd love to see the complete board, in order to know where to play. If I am to win or lose, I'd like to see that too. I can't play with this type of a board disadvantage

so the change over is saturday morning right?

Im webtv too!

who's saturday morning ????

Ill have to look to see what time differences

fencers I think

Looks like a webTV problem then as Explorer & Netscape are working fine. Must be something here effecting just webTV, unless anyone else has a problem. Take note of any timed-out games, and PM Fencer.
BK 2.0 is still down to be released Saturday morning, BUT nothing there should be effecting anything here as they are totaly seperate sites at present.

I'm on webtv.. and everything is fine..
Turn your unit off for a min. then log back on..
It maybe your memory in your unit!
Just a suggestion.. :)

I'm webtv and everything is fine for me too..

Duh... I should know better, but hadn't tried that yet :)
Anywho, it worked! Thanks for the help.

You are most welcome IMupChuckKingC! :)

Fencer: Just heard www.chessworld.com advertised on the radio here so i went and looked. Seems to be all sorts of chess merchandise & sites (Pogo & IYT) links on there.
Is there anyway BrainKing can get on there or would you have to pay ? :-)

What time, East coast USA, is this site planning on being down for the switchover? And for approximatly how long? Thanks :)

5 games have now timed out because the boards are mucked up!!!!

For the past 48 hours alll my backgammon boards have been royally mucked up.....Something is wrong somewher and it aint't just my webtv. I can go other places but I sure can't seem to play my games here. Playing with a full board would be nice!!!!
