Subject: Ratings

Could someone please explain to me the meaning of my row on the Dark Chess ratings page? It states "14 (7/0/15)", under "Counted Games".
I've just checked and every single one of my Dark Chess games was ranked (Counts towards BKR). So why is it that it says I have only 14 games when I won 7 and lost 15?

Fencer: We can only sign up for one Team of a particular game as the system will not let us play for more than one.
So how can someone playing for a team in one fellowship, leave that team while still playing for it in a match, and join another fellowships team of the same game ??? Is it a bug ???
If not the same person could carry on playing for every fellowship they are a member of.

Subject: Time outs off..

How long will the time outs be shut off?

just wondering, because I wasn't going to be online until late tonight, and my plan was to get lots of moves made thursday night so that I would stay caught up... Obviously I couldn't do that with the site down.. So I'm just curious if I have to cancel my plans tonight.. (LOL, people will laugh at me if I say I can't go because of my games!) And, I'm going to be gone for the next 14 hours because of work.. so can't do it now..

Just curious!

Baked Alaskan: well i was here only 21 hrs as i slept for 2 took a bath rebooted once a hour and in the time it took to reboot i grabbed something to eat
but if i had been playing only ludo and for the full 24 hrs i know 12000 moves in one day is possible!!!! stupid yep but not impossible

imsoaddicted:
Sorry, I didnt mean to upset you.
Was just thinking, if u moved every 8seconds how in the world did u cook/make food in that 24hrs? Or even eat it?    LOL
Didnt U use the bathroom?   No sleep in 24hrs?

Just weird, thats all..

13. October 2006, 09:22:24

Subject: Re:

imsoaddicted: and my final word on the subject is
if you play only ludo for one hour solid i can average nearly 650 moves so theres an even bigger record out there if you want to go for it yourself

Subject: Re: A short overview of BrainKing history (part 1)

it's very interesting and i can't wait for it to be continued, i'm here since nov.2 2002, that's almost the beginning, and it's fun looking back. BK has surely come a long way. Fencer and Liquid have done a great job. ty for a great site.

11. October 2006, 13:54:25

Yeh tis interesting to know, that there was only 5 game, 4 of which are chess... i'm so glad i came later on or i'd have never stayed around

Modified by MadMonkey (10. October 2006, 12:08:30)

I have a feeling there is something wrong with the Line of Action Ratings:



Order 	 Player 	BKR 		Counted games
30.	 Ugo 		1564	        42 (31/0/11)	 
31.	 MIHEL 		1492	        94 (43/1/50)	
32.	 MadMonkey 	1578	        37 (21/2/15)	
33.	 KARA 		1501	        59 (28/0/31)	 
34.	 fanciann 	1476	        78 (42/0/38)

I only noticed this because i am playing MIHEL in a tournament. He has a lower BKR, but is rated high than me.
WHY???

BIG BAD WOLF: I'm sure his membership was due to run out in 2009 before he broke the 10k.

And according to what was said on the BK.cz board, only the first person to break it is entitled to the special prize, whatever it is...

Subject: Re:

furbster: Well I noticed that the person's membership runs out in 2009 - but I'm not sure if it was like that before, or if a special prize was a couple year membership or something.

Another question is if someone else breaks 10,000, will they get the prize also or was it only for the first?

9. October 2006, 00:26:28

I don't think he did say what it would be, maybe it'll be annouced at the end of this month. It sure would be cool to know what he won.

Subject: 10,000 moves a day

Did Fencer ever say what the special prize was for the one who did break the 10,000 moves in 1 day was since it was done a couple of days ago?
