Do you miss something on BrainKing.com and would you like to see it here? Post your request into this board! If there is a more specific board for the request, (i.e. game rule changes etc) then it should be posted and discussed on that specific board.
When we visit a user's profile and select the "Finished games" tab we can limit the games displayed to only the games played with me. Can we have that added to "Started games" too?

When viewing a game where it's our turn to play we have the option to "Play later". In the interest of completeness it could have a dropdown with the options available on the "Move" button when we're submitting a move.
[Play later] and * go to the main page * stay here * ... * go to the next game with Fischer's clock
2006/04/13, 17:59:44 (Fencer) Portuguese Checkers are not implemented here yet. 2006/04/14, 10:40:30 (pauloaguia) does that mean they will be? 2006/04/14, 11:43:15 (Fencer) Sure, why not.
I'm trying to make a script for BrainKing, and for testing purposes I started a few games "invisible to other players". What I thought this would create was games that wouldn't show up on the list of games I'm playing, but it shows the games; it just doesn't show the moves.
Can we have "invisible moves", "unlisted game", and "game will be deleted from database when it's over" option when creating a game?
So, I'd say colour doesn't matter for Backgammon or Ludo, White has a small advantage in Five in Line, and a big advantage in Horde Chess. Black has a big advantage in Maharajah Chess.

WatfordFC: Every game rules page has a little table at the beginning with the percentage of wins for White and Black. For instance, PahTum's percentages are:
white 11354 (54.58 %) black 6559 (31.53 %) Draws 2886 (13.87 %)
As you can see, apparently it's better to play with white in this game.
As I understand it, smileys are now visible to everybody, but the Smileys FAQ is not updated. I suggest the removal of the text "Smileys are visible for paying members only." from it.
gogul: I didn't want to make my script public before going over it a few more times. I have a link to its current version at the user scripting fellowship.
If so, you can use this greasemonkey script that replaces the smileys with their previous text representation. Save the following in a file named "unfoistSmileys.user.js" and then open it in Firefox to install.
(function() {
unfoistSmileys();
function unfoistSmileys() { var b = document.getElementsByTagName('body'); var r = /<img src="\/images\/smileys\/(\d+)\.gif">/g b[0].innerHTML = b[0].innerHTML.replace(r, "*$1*"); }
Instead of going to the main page when there are no games with an online player, the action [ Move ] and "go to next game with online player" could go to the next game.
Or maybe a new action could be added to do that: [ Move ] and "go to next game with precedence for online player"
Daniel Snyder: I very much agree with this. Maybe the sequence could be that after two passes and the marking of dead stones, the other player has an option to remark differently (rather than reject) or accept and finish the game. In case of remark, the first player can now accept and the game is over, or, both players are forced to play a stone on their next move after which the game proceeds normally.
When you are finishing a move in a game, you have the option to add a note to that game; the background of the specific textarea is gray. When you want to add a note to a game through the link "Add a note" the textarea could have the same background.
Currently the running players list is ordered by the points left column. Would it be possible to make the column titles clickable and sort the list by the value of last move?
