<< < 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 > >> 22. november 2005, 20:24:50 D'oh, guess thats what I get for thinking while taking exams  22. november 2005, 20:20:59 Teema: Re:  MidnightMcMedic: No, current tournaments have a min. of 4 per section - and draws are allowed. 22. november 2005, 20:14:22 can't the tournies be set up that way? i honestly thought they could...??? 22. november 2005, 20:01:41 Teema: Re: Tournaments  playBunny: there is a difference - there can be only one winner per section 22. november 2005, 18:41:36 Teema: Re: Tournaments diogenes: A knock-out tournament isn't that much different to a round-robin with only two players per section and no draws allowed, so I'd guess that much of the code is already available. 22. november 2005, 18:37:39 Teema: Re: Tournaments Dryznik: my "new" idea was to build up an alternative to those "round-robin"-games. to increase the thrill by the need to win each single game in order to head into the next round.... >;-B 22. november 2005, 18:26:21 Teema: Re: Tournaments Dryznik: Not sure if I understand how that is different from the tournaments here on brainking? 22. november 2005, 18:14:06 Teema: Tournaments I like the way IYT has their tournaments set up by several sections, the winner(s) of each section goes on to round two and plays the winners of round 1, etc. until one final winner is left. IYT starts 2 tourneys a week for all kinds of games. I play Halma 10 on IYT. The invitations to the Ts are at the top of the window page and are very easy to follow, unlike the Ts on this site. I would play in such Halma 10, and Halma 16 for 4 players. 22. november 2005, 15:50:03 Teema: Re: elimination diogenes: Like brackets? Yea, if so - that is one of my long-time request for this site. (like dailygammon's tournmanets)
Basicly: Player 1 vs player 2 player 3 vs player 4 then winner of first, and the winner of the second meet and play each other (Nothing wrong with the current tournament way, but to have additional options would be great) 22. november 2005, 14:04:45 Teema: Re: elimination  diogenes: yeh think that would be a fun idea 22. november 2005, 12:56:38 Teema: Re: elimination Socrates: I like both ideas! 22. november 2005, 12:41:38 Teema: Re: elimination diogenes: I like that idea :) Another system that could be used is a "League" system. Much like the NBA and MLB in the USA, with regular season and post season (playoffs, knockout) play. The top players of the regular season would qualify for the post season. This system would be using mandatory games that would start automatically according to the schedule. There could be 1 league for every main game or even every game. 22. november 2005, 12:41:32 Teema: Re: elimination diogenes: That would be a certain 2ndment from me! 22. november 2005, 11:27:47 Teema: elimination hello, now we have "normal games", "tournaments" and "stairs"... . how about classical knock-out-tourneys where the winner heads into the next round and the one who loses is eliminated. with quarterfinals, semifinals, finals and so on? this would be a special thrill for some special tournaments! ;-) 22. november 2005, 02:56:35 Teema: Re: ScarletRose: the IYT downtime was awful! however, everyone got to see a side of Pat Chu we never expected. 22. november 2005, 00:36:05 Teema: Re: Yes, a page that displays during scheduled (or unscheduled when possible) downtimes would be a big benefit. We'd at least know that our connections, etc. were good. 22. november 2005, 00:02:49 Teema: Re: ScarletRose: Yeh, they almost kicked the bucketed! 21. november 2005, 23:49:06 Teema: Re:  LuckyCat9: yes.. it was down for what.. almost 2 weeks.. OMG 21. november 2005, 22:56:24 I think IYT had a horrible crash not to long ago and they had a page with constant updates regarding getting fixed, even started a blog. 21. november 2005, 22:47:11 Teema: Re: Site connection problems Fencer: If there is a network or a connection problem, you couldn't reach the fault page anyway. It would make no sense.
Yes, but it would allow us to know the difference between a "programmed" downtime or server maitenance or something like that (BK error page kicks in) and a network problem (standard "cannot display page" error) 21. november 2005, 22:28:05 Teema: Re: Site connection problems playBunny: Did you just answer to yourself there or wha'?!? [sideways glancing with one eyebrow higher]
On the other hand, if somehow he decides to introduce game group ratings (by which, BTW, I actually meant separate rating SYSTEMS for game groups, but you can also have some averaging done foe eligible members of the game group) then some further delays may occur - but let's leave the operational aspect to Fencer, our Brain King (of the white variety) 21. november 2005, 22:24:16 Teema: Re: Site connection problems playBunny: And on the topic of normal service.. I think it's great that Filip doesn't have to take the site down for a period every day to do his backups, that the upgrades are so quick to install and that major downs, like the BKR recalulations, are so rare. 
WhiteTower LOL. 21. november 2005, 22:17:28 Teema: Re: Site connection problems playBunny: Darn trunk lines :P 21. november 2005, 22:14:25 Teema: Re: Site connection problems wellywales: wellywales: Those sites have such a page when you can reach the server but it's not providing the usual service. Brainking's server is providing the usual service nearly 24 hours of the day. If you were in the Czech Republic there would be no outages or anything. The problem is the "trunk" line from there to certain other regions. Either the page request doesn't get to BrainKing, or it does and BrainKing gives the correct page in return, but that gets lost on the way back out. 21. november 2005, 22:13:11 Teema: Re: Site connection problems wellywales: Yes, but they don't "do" faults. What they do do is display a page notifying users of essential maintenance, like database backups etc. This is not a fault, but a regular feature, while the game server is still working fine.
What BrainKing has is another domain, BrainKing.info, for such faults and other cases, but it seems to have been forgotten for a year and a half - Fencer, any comments? :) 21. november 2005, 22:11:28 Teema: Re: Site connection problems  wellywales: No site is able to do it if it's unreachable due to a network problem. 21. november 2005, 22:10:29 Teema: Re: Site connection problems Fencer: I understand that but these other sites seem to be able to do it, perhaps a sister site, I don't know 21. november 2005, 22:07:52 Teema: Re: Site connection problems wellywales: If there is a network or a connection problem, you couldn't reach the fault page anyway. It would make no sense. 21. november 2005, 22:04:19 Teema: Site connection problems WellyWales toimetatud (21. november 2005, 22:04:58) Fencer, is it possible to have a fault page that clicks in, as other sites like IYT, Daily Gammon, Gold token etc, that tell you there is a site fault, "please try again later", other members must have seen these, it is better then nothing at all, sometimes you don't know if it is your own computer at fault. 21. november 2005, 22:00:26 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts BIG BAD WOLF: Of course, even a lowly Pawn can eliminate ads, by using the right ad blocker :) However, I elected to keep them displayed, for the sake of Fencer ;) 21. november 2005, 20:25:48 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts Jason: In settings, as members you can also places the ad's at the bottom of the page. I do that - that way every once and awhile I can go click on them to help Fencer make a few extra cents here and there - and the ad's are not in my way on the top of my screen. (Again, only a member option I believe.)
About a week ago, there was a time when the google ad's were both not loading - would get an error about not being found, but everything else loaded fine.... and only laster about 5 minutes. Other then that, I have had no problem with the google ad's. (Think I will go click on it again to help Fencer out!)  21. november 2005, 19:28:09 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts Fencer: Thanks :-)
I will let you know if performance improves. I have not seen very many delays that were traceable to the Google ad, but there have been a few. 21. november 2005, 19:25:24 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts  Fencer: lol i have never seen that link before or now even ..... but its ok the google ad thing has just vanished from my page . spooky 21. november 2005, 19:19:48 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts alanback: Now it does.
Jason: Just below the banners. 21. november 2005, 19:13:16 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts Fencer: where is the hide link ? 21. november 2005, 19:01:39 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts Fencer: This apparently does not apply to the Google ad under "Logout" in the menu bar. 21. november 2005, 18:40:26 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts Fencer toimetatud (21. november 2005, 18:40:46) votacommunista: Paying members can disable Google ads, click on the "hide" link. 21. november 2005, 18:16:47 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts eagle eye: There is one thing that could be done, which is to remove the link. 21. november 2005, 18:11:55 Teema: Re: google ad sense and timeouts votacommunista: I guess nothing can you do about, google ads are from google and BK just displays them... 21. november 2005, 16:48:54 Teema: google ad sense and timeouts it would be nice that google ad sense would not lead to a longer waiting time ... if the responsible page could not be reached you have to wait and in some time a timeout occur. 21. november 2005, 00:37:06 Teema: Re: Getting Bck To English grenv: The flag problem is easily solved with a confirmation screen. 20. november 2005, 21:57:47 Teema: Re: Getting Bck To English playBunny: Yes, that is the problem with the flags, it isn't obvious what they are for. Probably a "Choose Language" header? On the other hand if that was in another language it may not be obvious anyway. lol. 20. november 2005, 21:56:45 Teema: Re: grenv: Maybe you are right. Let´s see when we have them. 20. november 2005, 20:56:19 Teema: Re: *That* word alanback: As I understand it one of the problems with Auto-SHHHH!! is that the dice aren't generated until the player goes to the page - ie it's manually triggered. For automatic rolling that procedure would have to be repositioned so that it rolls at the first possible opportunity rather than at the last moment, and that's presumably pretty tricky. 20. november 2005, 20:48:58 Teema: Re: fungame:A conditional move could also be designed to operate after the system automatically generates a dice roll. Then we would have the autopass feature whose lack is so much lamented in some quarters. 20. november 2005, 17:04:10 Teema: Re: Getting Bck To English Geo: Have you clicked on one of the language flags by some chance? If so, click on the British flag to revert to English. 20. november 2005, 17:03:03 Go up to the top right of the page and click the UK flag 20. november 2005, 16:59:04 Teema: Getting Bck To English When Are You Going To Change My Site Back To English So I Can Understand What To Click Onto If I Wanted To Play More Games 20. november 2005, 16:35:26 Teema: Re: naughtypawn: they would be great in anti chess, often long chains of moves are forced for one player. << < 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 > >> |
