Marshmud: Agree there are bugs at GT. Tomas does what he can but it is probably hard to work on a code that someone else wrote. BUT at least they have site run tournaments. Kind of odd here for a game site not to have site run tournaments
There needs to be a limit as to how many tournaments someone can post. Terrys asked about this a while go. Fencer sounded like he would do it if we came up with a number. Five seems like a reasonable number to me
Carpe Diem: Here you can not block you starting quarter but at another game site you can not block opponents 3rd quarter. Not sure which is the right way. If all are piled up on one point then you have to move one
Fencer, a while ago you had mentioned maybe another color code for memberships. Have you thought any more about that? This was your comment ( Well, I think we could make one more membership action with colour codes. Or something like that.)
After playing on a game neither the option of going to main page or picking a game from the drop down list works? No matter which I choose the first game on my game list is what I get?
happyjuggler0: Because of the reason Fencer is changing it. Some like to pick their own vacation days...then cancel them so they get the extended time to play but NEVER actually use a vacation day
Fencer: All vacation will be automatic, which also means that the calendar would be removed from Settings page (it should disable all attempts of cheating by periodical setting/unsetting of scheduled vacation days, as we could see in the past). Users of all membership levels will be allowed to activate/deactivate automatic vacation anytime.
*Users of all membership levels will be allowed to activate/deactivate automatic vacation anytime.* If we choose to deactivate automatic vacation would we then be able to schedule vacation days like before
Hrqls: Thank you for seeing my point about "losing on purpose for the goal of boosting ratings." I really have a hard time thinking of this as team play? A game where 2 players sign up as a team and they know who all the teams are is fine. Ponds you sign up as a single player. If teams are allowed then create a pond for teams and that would be fair play for all.
There is a discussion board for ponds and that might be a better place for this? Members who do not play in ponds must be slightly bored with this by now.
NO CHEATING. This includes using outside programs to help play and losing on purpose for the goal of boosting ratings. Your account may be banned, and ratings will be removed.
Why wouldn't ponds be like any other game at BK? It says "losing on purpose for the goal of boosting ratings."
rabbitoid: I believe Fencer too and I am sure he is thinking about it...but if he thinks to long he might see the bird as the perfect member. Buy a forever membership then just drop in to update your vacation! Guy never complains or post annoying messages on the boards that Fencer has to deal with
Marfitalu: Thats not always true. Check this one and he/she was a pawn for the last 3 or 4 bids which were automatic bids. GoodFoods' Catered Pond Party X
BIG BAD WOLF:
