Subject: Re: II Sudoku World Championship

here is the link to one of the way to play. I think there are other ways too:
http://www.menneske.no/sudokuto/eng/
anyway, here are the rules:
"The rules for inserting a number is the same as a regular Sudoku. You are only allowed to insert a number one time in the row, column or box.
The winner is the persons who either manage to fill in a whole row, column or box, or inserts the last legal number. But beware, you lose if you insert an illegal number."
Regards, Andy.

krybulon: It seems to me one of the players has a big advantage, depending on the board size it can be white or black.

it's possible , however, I never played it ...
maybe the solution would be like in Connect6,
the first player enters 1 number, the second player 2 numbers and so on ... just a quick thought ... there has to be a solution, I've seen several Sudoku board games on the market.

alanback: On your profile, at the top there is an option called "Order List" which I think says the current status of orders.

If something seems out of place, sending a personal message to Fencer would be the best (Since a message on the boards may be overlooked or buried from other posts before Fencer gets a chance to see it.)

TarantinoFan: yes i do. and most are not just signing in to see they are blocked in a game or 2.they are playing there games and find one they just return, no big deal. i di not sit and wait for my games to be returned.as i said i would not use it.it is here and it is a choice to use it. i do believe it should be a choice, not implamented in all games. yes it would spead things up in maybe a game or 2, but remember you still wait for the person to make there reg, moves and some use vacation and you just wait.

nightmagic: Yup..you are absolutely correct You and other "anti autopassers" have a choice to either not suggest autopass or say no if your opponent has suggested it. We who love autopass have to follow your wishes.

Subject: Mars Action

I must tell you, Fencer, I really don't like Mars Action, Of course, it's only my opinion, a lot of other players will love it... Idon'tlike cause I don't intend spending 1 month playing like hell...

Don't you have anything to offer to someone whose membership is ending, and that would like to keep on as a rook?

Subject: NEXT GAME

Ok I figured out the next game you can earn action points in. Again, if anyone wants to figure it out on their own then please tell me to stop posting these notes and I will. This game was easy for me to figure out it was giving the action points.

The current game you can earn action points in is:
DICE CHESS

kid_game_2001: As long as Fencer does not care, I don't care - the only other thing I would like is maybe to post these on General Chat so we don't have 2 new post a day on this board, with each one of them being outdated within 1/2 a day.

2. March 2007, 07:04:21

Subject: Re: Mars Action

Gabriel Almeida: Huh? You are not expected to like it.

Other game sites would give you no actions at all. And if your membership is ending, the easiest solution is to renew it, no matter what action is currently active.

Has anyone else got problems with BK? I've tried with both IE and Firefox and I keep getting the same problems. The BK main logon screen comes up red, the dice in triple dice poker are not visible and the empty positions in the game to fill turn up red. I also checked a couple of other games and the counters are not appearing.

Is it BK? I did a clean up of our cache's only yesterday.

Subject: Re: Does anyone else get this annoying page while using firefox to make their moves on here?

Dice Poker Pro: Firefox, Opera, IE or any other browser. That occurrence is browser independent (though the look of the page may be different from one browser to another).

Usually just means Fencer is messing with our patience by upgrading the site when we are trying to do something on the site

Fencer, if I have turned auto pass on in the Game filter Settings page, will all my running games against opponents with the same settings also include auto pass?

Subject: Re: Does anyone else get this annoying page while using firefox to make their moves on here?

Dice Poker Pro: Yes I get that message too sometimes. It doesn't happen all the time though. Usually when it does, Fencer is online and changing the site settings or something. That message doesn't even last a minute, so it goes away very quickly.

Subject: Re: Action Points

Oceans Apart: I'll actually agree. I admit, I do like chess but dont have that many games open. I have plenty of Backgammon and Ludo games so those would give me plenty of action points.
LOL.
Oh and for me its 6PM. But you will all get a head start for an hour. Since I have to work and wont be home until a little after 7. Hopefully you wont get too many points before I come on!
