But this will not be the only theme. I am sure we will have more to select from. Later.

Fencer: Less games without scrolling downwards.

As for the amount of pixels, I don't have my browser set to full screen - that's way too annoying.

Emne: Re: NewGameList
AbigailII: What do you mean "less games"? The amount of data is still the same, there is no reason to hide some games.
About a horizontal scrolling - it's not necessary if you use at least 1024x768 screen resolution. Which should not be a problem, nowadays. There is no point to restrict ourselves to 800x600 only.

Emne: NewGameList
I've looked at the new page. All the information is there, at about the same place. I guess lots of people like the castle theme, but I'm not at all big on fluff. I do notice that NewGameList shows less games of the "games where it is my turn" list (which for me is by far the most important information on the page). And it requires horizontal scrolling where the current interface doesn't. That despite the new page using a smaller font (border line small for my taste).

I'd say that for looks, NewGameList wins. For usability, the current page wins.

Fencer: why not just create another board for questions such as...... it is slow today or is it crashing alot today , a page just on its own then no one would be scared to ask thesetype of questions ,
it would be handy for people to see if its just brainking or there own pc ect

I just went away for a little while, and people jumped all over that problem. Very Impressive! To answer BBW question, I'm using Mozilla Firefox. Also I scan my computer daily for spyware/adware/virus/etc. It runs on a timer like most people have, but I will run it manually and see if that solves the problem. Thanks for the input.

EDIT: I found that IE does not have the problem. I can makes moves on the games and delete messages without getting that download popup. Maybe its a problem with Firefox?

It seems to be worse during my mornings, which probably means there is work being done on the site?

Preachor:  Show game is the name of the applet on the server that is used to open the game page -- have you tried allowing the download to proceed even once?  It may work.  Otherwise, try clearing your cache, something may be corrupted in there.

Tilpasset af Preacher † (19. Februar 2007, 16:10:22)
I keep having these issues when I'm going into another game, or when I try to delete messages from my box. I get a popup to download a file. The message is as follows:

Show Game
which is a: application/octet-stream
from: http://brainking.com
Would you like to save this file?

I get this problem often. I cancel the file download, because obviously its not a downloadable file. Then I click refresh and it brings me back to the main Game List page. Then I try to click on one of my games from the list and I get the same problem. Any ideas?!

Emne: Re: Team BKR
Fencer: So the rating of your team players does not count for anything. You can have 8 players with 1900+ BKR, BUT if they have not won many games, they can still get an overall rating of 900 for example ?

MadMonkey: Yes.

MadMonkey 
Emne: Team BKR
How are the Team BKR's worked out ?
It seems it does not have anything to do with individual players in the team and there rating.
So i presume it is done on results for that team in either a Team Tournament (one of Fencers) or a challenge (against another Fellowship, or both ?

Emne: Re: Single elimination
Tulip: there are several hypergammon tournaments in which more than 1 player have the same score in the end .. they are all declared winner

i would guess the same would happen if a 2 player final would end in a draw ? but i have never been in such a situation .. maybe someone can find an example ? ;)

17. Februar 2007, 17:59:09

Emne: Re: Single elimination
Tulip: If the tournament creator sets the game type to "1 win match", a draw leads to a rematch. The advantage of the lower rated player only occurs if it is a "normal game".

basplund: i would have thought that a final ending in a draw would go to another match?
it does on other sites....ive been in a backgammon final for the last 3 rounds now....we are on rd6

Emne: Re: Single elimination
basplund: Even a prize tournament ? I admit that it should be a very rare case, but taking the BKR at the start at the game, or even at the start of the tournament (in which case it can be a compensation for having had the harder pairings), seems better. But perhaps not better that selecting the winner at random :-)

17. Februar 2007, 00:22:31
basplund 
Emne: Re: Single elimination
nabla: I suppose it must be the BKR at the finish of the game, which counts as always.
In theory you're right, but I doubt that anyone would do that much effort to win a tournament.

17. Februar 2007, 00:05:09
nabla 
Emne: Re: Single elimination
basplund: Makes me wonder, are we talking about the lower BKR at the time the game is started, or at the time it is finished ? In case of the latter, one player could sacrifice BKR points in order to win a tournament when he has a drawish position in the final.
