redfrog: I never said i wanted to get technical. Just mentioned that someody had solved it in the first row, whether it was luck or not, the code was still solved.

BerniceC: Well lets hope he doesn't have a heart attack from the shock of someone agreeing with him! I have used Firefox for years. Can't stand IE.

BerniceC: In the Settings - Java Script page there is 3 radio buttons just under the Autosave Interval box. I used to have those smilies all over me too until I clicked On Mouse Click. Try that and see if it helps although like Fencer said "IE"

Fencer: on the Notepad

Jason: I am glad it's not useful only for me.

Can you send existing notes to a new folder??

WellyWales: Of course you can.

Fencer: How? I have made New folders, but cannot see how you can move them

WellyWales: OK! I can see it at the bottom of the page

WellyWales: put a tick in the box and scroll down to the bottom of the page ;)

edit , must type faster lol

Fencer: WooooooHooooooo Super thanks bunches something I've really been wishing for 

Fencer: Since when we play a game we don't read every time the rules, and sometimes appear surprising rules-changes that we recognize in the middle of a match (last example: Hasami Shogi). So it would be nice if under the name of the game you put the date of the last rule change, and if this date is less than 4 weeks it should be given in red font,so that we are warned that a game has still the same name but not the same rules.
Or, as alternative, every time the rules are changed the name of the game should be changed also, in the example above "Hasami Shogi" in "Hasami Shogi Modern", and the old game can either continue with the old rules or if it is no longer interesting can be removed.

CryingLoser: Yes, it's not a bad idea. The change date is kept at the game model, so it just has to be visualized.

Fencer: ummmmmm....being facetious here but isnt this a bit off topic???

Features?? Isnt there a board for that?

I would apologise for being off topic????

but was I???

confused here.....

what is off topic and who determines it....
a few posts down I was pulled up in a joking? fashion by the "King himself"...
BerniceC: Say anything you like. But don't be off-topic.
Now im being castigated for not going to a mod about Fencer and his remarks, it isnt any wonder that the boards are dying.....from over moderation

oops...sorry but had to have my say.....sheeeeeeeeeesh

BerniceC: hi, i guess this is in response to a private message i sent to you .. i would have preferred it to be replied to in a privare message as well .. i see i have several new messages which i will read after this.

the point i in the private message was that cryingloser asked a question which was related to brainking.com .. you were right though that it would have been better at the feature request board .. but just because i dont try to over-moderate i allow a single post like this .. especially when its replied by fencer already .. so that should finish that conversation already

you then posted your comment .. which i asked you to do in a private message to the moderator .. as its the moderators task to redirect posts if needed

please take this into private messages with me as it doesnt belong on this board

if you want to continue this on a public board or in a fellowship, thats ok with me as well, but please send me a private message where that will be :)

any continuation of this topic should be done via private messages to me (or another moderate if you dont want to send it to me) .. any continuation of this on this board will be deleted .. sorry

If you are like me, you don't know enough about computers. You've been hearing a lot of talk about BrainKing and Firefox vs. Internet Explorer. You have Internet Explorer and aren't interested in downloading something to replace it.

I downloaded Firefox tonight, and it works quite well.

For those of you who don't know:
- Firefox is free to download.
- You can have both Explorer and Firefox on your computer. You don't have to replace the Internet Explorer that you are used to. You can use both.
- Downloading is easy. Go to google. Type in Firefox download. You will get options like Mozilla Firefox free download. Just download it. It won't hurt.
- You can always get rid of it if you don't like it.

emmett: yep, same with Opera and most browsers these days.

I've got to say that I didn't like the coercive approach to suggesting that BrainKing users use Firefox. My immediate reaction was abrasive.

I've been using Firefox for two days now, just for BrainKing. It's like Fencer is a sort of father-figure here - You might not like what he has to say sometimes, but it's for your own good!

Firefox is very good.

BerniceC: Upps, had forgotten that there exists an extra board for Feature Requests, sorry!
Fencer: Thank you!

emmett: I have a hard time believing that the increasingly obtrusive advertising is for my own good.

KotDB: But you know the answer.

Fencer: The people without choice of an other browser dont..

gogul: No. Everyone has a choice of paying 2 Euro for the cheapest membership level and get rid of all obtrusive advertising.

Have the action points been turned off for any reason, because mine arent registering

Dice Poker Pro: ok thanks for that, i suppose i had better start learning chess and all the others i cant play lol

Fencer: Yes, I know your answer. But your answer is wrong. If you want my money, make the site better overall; don't make it worse for Pawns.

Oceans Apart: I noticed that too. I thought that the site didnt like me anymore and didnt give me my action points. But yes every 12 hours you can only get action points from a specific game (randomly chosen) whether you move or win a game.

I do have good news. I don't know if I should post this here or not but i do KNOW the current selected games. If I get in trouble for posting it then i wont post the answers when I found them.

The current game you can earn action points in is:
HASAMI SHOGI

KotDB:

((make the site better overall))

Show me a better "turn based" game site...
There is none...

Fencer offers the most for a VERY fair price.    And all game sites have the darn banner ads unless u become a member.

ßăķëď Äłáşķǻñ:  Before I can agree with this being the best turn-based site, I will have to have autopass ;-)

You know, this smiley is kind of meek....

What we need is a BrainKing Kicks Ass! smiley. I better get on down to Feature Requests.

alanback:

I said show me a better site...
NOT, what could make this one better.  


I know the other sites offer auto pass, but they cant compare to what Fencer offers here... 

alanback: as i see auto pass i will say NO! if your not here to make the turn yourself, WHY be here at all?

ßăķëď Äłáşķǻñ: as it says in my profile!!!!!

alanback: But BrainKing has autopass. You should read the blog.

Fencer:  I guess I autopassed the blog.  I will check.

But how do I find it if I have removed it from the main page?

alanback: Hmmmm ... going to http://BrainKing.info directly?

KotDB: By the way, it reminds me the quote from my favourite movie: "All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?"

Fencer:

has the game changed yet for action points or is it still the same one?

"Snoopy": Changed. It's 12:23 here.

Fencer: okay it was still comming up as hasimi shogi a couple of mins ago

"Snoopy": Or maybe it's not yet. I am not sure.

Fencer: Always Look On the Bright Side of Life :-)

nightmagic: so you think everyone should have to sign in just to see that they are still blocked in a game. And you think their opponents should always have to sit and wait for their moves when they know it is not possible for them to make one? Wouldn't it be nice to sign in to a game that you can actually make a move in? Rather than the frustration of seeing that you can't make a move and all you need to do is click a button to pass.

I guess there is no automatic process for updating the user database to reflect PayPal renewals?  I renewed yesterday but I am still getting that renewal message.

is held in Prague between Mar28th and April 1st.
Fencer, are you going to implement Sudoku, for 2 players, on your site ?
Regards, Andy.

Took me a while to figure it out. Well since no one said anything or complained the first time, I'll give the current answer:

You can now earn action points in:
CHESS

Just the basic chess, no variants

krybulon: How would you play Sudoku against an opponent on a turn based site? How do you determine a winner?
