My thoughts and prayers are with him and the family.

hrlqns.....thanks for your help. It was greatly appreciated. Like.....Duhhhhhh.....should have looked their first. Blonde moment I guess! LOL Thanks again! :)

Just wondering how the BKR's are totaled for the match games? I've won some games but they are not showing up on my BKR's and I'm still trying to find somewhere that explains how it all works. Thanks for any help and I'm sorry if it's on here and I just haven't found it yet. :)

I haven't had any problems with mine and I'm on webtv.

Thanks a bunch Fencer! :)

Would it be too much trouble to put the "Show On-line Opponents" at the top of the page instead of having to click on the "Who is on-line" and then clicking on the "Show On-line Opponents"? This would make things alot quicker for us that have a webtv and may be easier for the computer users as well. I usually don't care much about who is on-line unless I am looking for someone on-line to play a game with at that moment.

Now you have to remember that I am a very busy Mother of 3 and I am very active in my childrens lives at the moment. I have just NOW noticed where you can set your days off for the week on the game boards has changed drastically! Here's another plus towards membership! LOL We are starting a new season of gymnastics with my daughter and we travel quite a lot from month to month. So, this is awesome for the competitions that keep us out of town for a couple of days! As for the vacation days.....membership level would be awesome! But for now I'm saving the 5 days for her National competition in South Dakota this summer. She has been playing on here as well and it would benefit her too. She has met some really nice people here. I would have to say this is a thumbs up for the kids (with supervision). Fencer......what an awesome job you are doing here! Congrats! :)

Fencer....your doing a GREAT job! You have been busy as a bee making honey today! Maybe things will calm down some tomorrow. You'll get it all ironed out and working.

Fencer.....thanks for clearing things up for me. I think it was great that you gave non-members a taste of what their missing. I wasn't sure if I would like having more than 20 but I really am enjoying it. :) I think it gives non-members who are playing their limit of 20 a chance to see if they are even going to like playing more games. Oh yeah.....and you have really been working hard and doing a great job fixing the problems here. It shouldn't be long and maybe you can have a rest. LOL

Ok....another quick question....I just had another tournament game pop up today. LOL I had a game that was finished and then this one popped up. Will the tournament games override all the other games after we are finished with them or are there just so many tournament games that we can play at one time? I'm not complaining....just confused. LOL

Fencer....just wondering exactly how the tournament games work for us non-members. I did notice that when I finished a game with someone that I couldn't start a new Non-tournament game. LOL I was afraid there was a mistake or something when the tourny games started. I played as quickly as I could with whoever was on line at that moment afraid that I would get in the middle of a good game only to find out it was a gliche. ROFLOL I've never been in a tournament game before but I absolutely LOVE the games and the people...win or lose! Do we have to wait to start normal games with others until our numbers are below 20? Thanks in advance. ;)

I have to agree about the brightness but I am on a webtv and my screen is 32 inches so it's somewhat bigger to look at. But as Kevin said....or meant...that "anyone" can go to the settings page and change the background color. If it's that big of a problem then maybe he could make the main background color as gray and white as change instead of vice-versa. Maybe that would help to solve the problem.

Oh yeah.....I just want to say "Bye Mr/Ms Potty Mouth." :) I wouldn't want anyone to think I am rude! LOL

Fencer....thanks so much for the "help". Your site is awesome and I must say even though I am new to all the game sites I LOVE yours the best. The only thing is.....you should have a warning label added....."This site is addictive!" LOL

I have noticed that sometimes the "Friends On-line" shows "none" when there are friends on-line. I have checked to make sure that I have them listed as my on-line friends and sometimes they show up and sometimes they don't until I go to "Who is On-line". It usually shows up there but just not at the bottom of the page. Am I doing something wrong?

Been reading all the post and I want to say that I honestly don't like the user name. I have a daughter that plays on here and I'm sorry....but the name is a bit much. I do have one question though....you said your chess team left this site. Did they have problems quitting as well? I am fairly new to this site and I don't want to buy any membership at the moment because I am reading post like these and think it best to wait to see what all the site is about. Good and bad. There is no perfect site and no perfect person. And I'm sorry, but I would not open any mail with the name "F*** Y** T**" as the sender. I'm sure if everyone could calm down a bit, these issues could be resolved.

Fencer....I just want to say that you are doing an excellent job with brainking. You listen to the people that have suggestions as well as complaints. My opinion of it all is this....anyone who comes to this site can "sample" the games as well as the site itself, before buying membership. You are limited to games but not turns which is awesome! I spend more time on brainking than I do any other game site. So my thoughts on it all is that maybe there is something other than your site that is wrong with someone wanting to sell their membership. Like money problems after Christmas or something. I honestly can not believe that this site is not the "BEST"! :)

I haven't had exactly that problem but I have had some problems when hitting the go to next game it will sometimes take me to a blank page instead of the next game. I usually reload the page and then it seems to stop. You might try the same. When is it that you are getting this page? Maybe you have your settings wrong. I'm not a whiz just know what I would try. LOL

I won't say how many I have lost (you can see for yourself! LOL) but I think that's what makes this fun. Is trying to win. I agree with you (Dave) on the user name.

I have webtv. as well and know how it is. Do you have your settings on this site to where you are automatically logged in? If you do then I'm not sure why you are having this problem. If not then this may be your problem. Hope this helps some. :)

Ok Mr. Potty Mouth...Are we a little "Scrooged" after the Holiday??? ;o
