Franz Kafka: You get a provisional rating after 4 rated games, and an established rating after 25.

You could always PM whatever opponents that you have online and see if they'll step-it-up for you, I've done that too a couple of times

jessica: I know it's frustruating, but this time of year, time is very precious...I know I've done that many times recently. I find myself with 5 minutes here and sit down to play and then the phone rings or one of my daughters need me for something, like right now for example.

I hope everyone can be patient with me and others like me this time of year. I want to play, there's just alot going on. I want to play, am just not able to much these days.

3. Dezember 2006, 20:35:42

what's up with alot of people today? they are just staying on long enough to make 1 to 3 moves and then logging off or waiting till their times are almost expired to make their moves?

Thema: Re:

pauloaguia: I am going to implement a neat tool for this action soon.

Although it will be available only for one month, I think it's worth it.

30. November 2006, 14:45:54

Thema: Re:

Rose: Just because Fencer is putting everything in automatic doesn't mean the manual method doesn't work anymore ;)
I think there's at least three ways to do it:

* Send someone the 150€ and that person pays 300€ for both black rooks. This implies TRUST
* But two black rooks and simply offer the other the other one the second membership. This one is KIND
* Send a message to Fencer asking the best way to send him the money. When he gets 150€ from both parties he gives them both a Black Rook. This is SAFE... of course, you have to trust Fencer ;)

Well i'm going by when i brought mine. I dunno why it'd be any different though, because the same about of money is being transferred to brainking, and still 2 people are getting the black rook.

Thema: Re:

xmas is soon: The way I thought it went was, one person pays the whole shot and the second person sends half to the person who paid it all up front. NO?

30. November 2006, 13:31:28

Thema: Re:

furbster: ah right, because a friend of mine is trying to do it with somebody else on here and he has been told he has to pay the full 300

30. November 2006, 13:30:16

furbster

No you can pay 150 euro's each and both become black rooks, or pay the whole 300 yourself and choose someone to get a 'free' membership. It works out the same.

30. November 2006, 13:28:20

Thema: Re:

furbster: I stand to be corrected on this one, but i think its buy one get one free. You cant actually go half price. If you buy a Black Rook at the full price, u can then nominate a person to have a black rook as well for free.

pauloaguia: hey, wait a minute. This sounds like an excellent deal. It means that I have to pay just 24€ for a year's worth of membership and in return I can do nothing at all, never make a move in the whole year! no need even to log on!

Euh... come to think of it... can't I do the same without sending the 24€ ?

Thema: Black Rook Membership

Hi, I just want to ask if anyone is interested in purchasing a black rook for half price? Fencer said it's the last offer of this kind.

If you are interested, please write me a message

Thema: Re: Bishops and vacations

Marfitalu: Nah. Pawns have a lifetime membership and they still get only 5 days ;)
Besides, a 1 year rook gets as many days has a 6 months rook, so it's definitely not time related.
