anastasia: Like wekke said, they were rooks/knights at one time, and let there membership go.

They are still "in" the fellowship, BUT they can not read the boards and can not join the tournaments and can not join the teams. (So basicly they can do nothing.)

Some BIG BOSSes remove the pawns, while others keep them around since some may renew their membership and when they do, will already be in the fellowship.

anastasia: Their status probably changed a while ago...I had a few of them in mine as well...They were rook when I invited them.

just wondering..I took over a fellowship for someone and notice there are 2 or 3 pawns in the fellowship..I didn't think that pawns could be invited into one?

Kipling: come on, Kipling. Hone up those psychic skills!

Fencer: could you clarify that for those of us without E.S.P.?

No more.

<rod> I experienced the same problem. I had to remove the team and build it up again :(

We need more members also, to join in inter-fellowship matches. Ratings unimportant, have a look at mine. LOL

Visit Crissie's Clubhouse and join a team!

Thanks!!
Crissie :o)

How does a captain take someone off a team??? Clicking "edit" by their name only let's you choose Player or Captain. When you click that "edit" link, it says captains can "throw people off the team" ... but I don't see anyway of doing it. It appears to me, the only way for it to happen is to either remove the person from the fellowship (which if the captain isnt the big boss, they can't do) or if they remove themselves.
If there isn't any other way, why does it say that captains have this abilitiy. Or am I just being blind?

If anyone is interested in playing inter-fellowship challenges, please pop along to .. http://brainking.com/en/ShowFellowship?fid=6 and sign up!

Ability makes no difference, we just wanna have some fun!


Cheers,

emmett: The big boss can let you do that!

It would be interesting if a player on a team could challenge the captain to a two-win match to win the rank of captain.

Would that not be info@brainking.

harley:Yes that is correct Harley.

We are looking for a teamcompetition with another fellowship in januschess,two games each player and four days timecontrol. If you have a team with at least four players and an bkr-average above 1500 please send me an pm in the next days .Thanks.

harley: No, the Big Boss can invite as well...Done a few already...Would like to get the messages too though...can't be to hard to program i guess?

anastasia: You can see all the invites on your main page, and as big boss you can accept them as well as the captain. But only the captain can invite other fellowships to a tournament. (I think!)

Fencer: shouldn't the big boss be able to see all of this too? I COMPLETELY trust my captain to accept/reject invites BUT I would like to be able to see them myself,or give an invite if I want to.

Fencer: Didn't know that...Saw a challenge on my f/s page, didn't get one as big boss.

wekke: Captains are notified about the challenges.

Fencer: Would it be possible to get a message in my inbox if a team challenges?

harley: Red box means incoming challenges - the challenges sent to your team by another fellowship. In other words, challenges waiting for you to accept or reject.
And both big boss and captain of the team can accept/reject the challenge.

You create them yourself Radiant. On your main fellowship page where your teams are listed, under the list of team members (only if you are a captain, I think) you'll see a drop down box with fellowships which are able to be challenged. Presumably if they have enough team members. Then you select the fellowship you'd like to challenge and define your tournament.
The next bit is what I'm confused about! I seem to be able to accept challenges, even when that team has a captain who isn't me. So I'm not sure if the captain can accept them too.

harley: I know i am even mOre behind... where can i find those Fellowship Matches?

I know I'm a bit behind but I have a couple of questions... why are some of the challenges in a red box? And can the captain accept/reject challenges and/or make their own? I see as big boss I can accept challenges, but can the captain too?

Off of this Off-Topic discussion needs a place to call home. Feel free to join on in the fun!!!

Off Topic Lounge

I wanted to created a Fellowship in honor for Bumble - anybody who has not yet already two FS's please create it and then please send me an invite!

Thank you so much!!

anastasia: Once the team match is created, you remain in the match even if you leave the team on the fellowship page.

BIG BAD WOLF: big hugs to you,wolf...thanks!

anastasia: This might be a question for Fencer in case he has changed something, but how it has worked in the past (and would guess it still works now)

Once the games have started, even if you leave the team/fellowship - the games will continue as they where started.

Again, Fencer might have changed this - but I'm pretty sure it will not mess anything up.

I am on a gammon team for a fellowship and we are playing another fellowship right now...question is this..do I have to wait till the tourney is over to leave the team..NOT the fellowship.It gives me the option to leave that team as my main team even though we are playing right now,but like I said,I don't want to screw the team OR mine or my oppnts. games.Thanks!!

ScarletRose: Nope. It's a free space to post.

Why not join and see

Jules: Oh.. then what is it about?? Is it another forum to bash peeps who aren't around??

Backoff: Who said it was a copy? I've no intention of it ending up like the Flame pit.

That's why it's the Boiler Room

Any teams interested in a backgammon challenge with Safe Haven, send me a message...

Any teams out there wanna take on the Brave Eagles Halma team at 8x8 or 10x10 or both???

Vikings: just one or two lol

16181 post and counting since thanksgiving in the pit

Lets see, how many times have people tried to copy the flame pit??? At least a dozen. Never seems to work out huh? Oh well......


BTW if anyone is intrested and you are an adult and are intrest in adult "discussion", feel free to join the one, the only, the FLAME PIT.

yeah, I couldn't resist....

Eriisa:

Jules: ---Comment Withheld---
