FYI... for anyone who likes Yahtzee but didn't know it yet, the Dice Poker game is Yahtzee, with a couple of variations!

While Im here, can we please have the previous move by our opponent highlighted for us, and also be able to see how many rolls our opponent has left? Thanks!

What was up with brainking.info today? When I clicked the "more"-link under the excerpt of the blog entry, it opened up a new window showing brainking.info - But it seemed to be redirected or something like that: screenshot. After two minutes, everything was just fine again, and the ususal blog appeared. Was this something that affected only me? Some weird DNS-error, or has brainking.info been attacked?

Thema: Re: Dice Poker

WellyWales: The rules should be coming soon..

1's through 6's : the total of these particular dice in your "hand"

3 of a kind: total of dice in your hand
4 of a kind: total of dice in your hand
Full House : 25 points
Small Straight: 30 points
Large Straight: 40 points
5 of a kind: 50 points
Chance: total of dice in your hand

I think I got that right!

rod03801: Yes! I know the rules will be later, but I got 26 for four sixes......is that correct ??

Thema: Re: Dice Poker

then the 5th dice had to be a 2, and you put the amt in 4 of a kind. if you had put it under 6s, it would have scored 24. if not, then somethings wrong:)

lovelysharon:Yes! thanks, I think I have got it now...

20. Januar 2007, 22:49:46

well, I was playing for awhile like we could only roll the dice twice in the whole game, not every single turn!!! LOL

I think it might make a nice variant to play it with only 2 or 3 rolls for the whole game, makes for some interesting choices!

Thema: Slow Site?

Does anyone else find this site SLOW? I am way behind on my games because it takes so long for a game to load, make a play, and go to the next one.

It can't be my broadband as all other sites I visit regularly are fine.

Perhaps it is the times I am online (6-9 pm GMT) which is doing it but it is VERY frustrating.

I am resigning from as many games as possible, if it looks like I won't win, just to get my game list down :(

I can't even get the brainking.com page to load. The only way I can get on here is to go to Brain Rook and link from there

it is the same here

getting blank pages after moves or getting nothing at all and having to re-load.
But as Fencer always say (well most times) it is all fine at his end so it must be us ROFLMBO.
Im on ADSL and have checked with them and my connection rate is phenomenal, so must be somewhere between Australia and Czech....
