wellI have just renewed mine for 6 months that was due to expire in January 2005 it has now been extended to August 2005 so I have 7 months instead of 6 :)

It meant, that you get one month extra added to the membership you pay until end of the year.
i.e.: You pay for another year of rook on 15. December, so you actually pay for 13 months

What does it mean, to make it to the end of the year? Not get banned? Or renew their membership through the end of the year? Its early, so my brain is having trouble understanding.....

UE obviously still has some left grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Nothingness, you will enjoy fellowships if you choose to join them. It is a good way to find like opponents and form friendships. Plus as a member you will be to join team tournaments, representing the fellowships you are a part of. Plus you will be able to play in multiple tournaments at a time. You made a wise choice to become a member.

WTG Skyking and Nothingness ;-)

It will be changed when Fencer gets on next time

i got the membership through paypal i had to update evertying. but i sseem to still be a brin pawn... hmm i guess it takes time to go through. it said that i am a member but still see the pawn.

some things require lots of practice! ;-)

slowley is right, only took 16 years

Slowly?! :oD

boy I am slow, how did I have 3.5 kids, lol

convience stores usually charge about 50 cents, and you can send it to Eriisa

nothingness, send a message to Eriisa. She is the US representative, you'll be able to send her a check for membership.

Any convieniance store will sell cheap Money Orders

No trouble on MO at all

That's what I did today LOL. I'll be arook soon yes!! LOL

whats a service rep? i only do things by check or CC never money orders theyre so expensive and not worth the trouble.

Nothingness, you can send a money order to a service rep here in the states, that would only take a couple of days

Nothingness, do you have a friend with a mobile you can use? Its only to get the code.

Stevie, you could be right there! I don't really know about international mobiles. Thanks for pointing that out.

what if you dont own a mobile phone? i cnat use a debit /check card to get a membership...? so i guess i cant become a member. ugg paypal is horrible and they give you too much trouble. i wantt o become a member now and its unfortunately impossible.

+44 is for UK only Harley, think the states is 01 isnt it?

Nothingness, you're supposed to put in a mobile phone number (starting with +44) then wait for a text message to that phone with a code. Then you put that code in where asked.

I dont use money bookers. I use my PayPal account. I transfer my checking account funds to Paypal through my debit card to authorize a payment for my membership. Otherwise you can check out who the representatives are for your country and they can assist you in getting the payment to Fencer.

im trying to apply for a membership. but it asked me for soem moblie thing whatever that it... so i jsut put i my phone numer than its asking me for a SMS verification code... again what is this i never recieved anything via email...so i cant activate my membership now can i...

I wouldn't get rid of either the store or the support us links

How many vacation days does UE have left?

Chessmaster1000: It means that the overloaded database server performed a rollback of the transaction. It makes no harm, it just happens, rarely. Faster hardware can solve it.
BBW: Good point.

Looking at the menu list, I think you could reduce some of them.

For example - I would stick "Winners" and "Ratings" both under "Statistics. (Also would be nice if the link to the daily move leader was also in Statistics.

"Brains" can probable be stuck in the paid membership area. I would say move "Store" and "Support us" both into the Paid membership section, but since we would like more support - those should stay separate.

Anyway, that will leave room for the pond game to be listed under the "Team tournaments" area, and the Interviews can be listed... um... somewhere.

Help & FAQ are similar - maybe combine both into 1 section.

Plus depending on how long before Polls or Search will be used for anything useful, those can be removed... and added later if needed. (And not too much trouble)

I played before 1 hour a move in one game while i had around 19 hours to play it, i played the move and logged off, but know i have entrered again the move hasn't been played and it said i have still 17 hours to play it.........I'm 100% sure i played the move so what happened...........?

Actually I found it more interesting that I did not even notice the mistake. "Do you have any pets - No, I don't like to read" :-)

Actually i probable have a copy here in my mail outbox.

I'll fix it tomorrow.

Don't worry, BBW, I still have a copy of your interview, I'll send it to Fencer again.

Is there a space for it?

Ah yes - there it is. But i'd still like to see them in the left or top menu :-)

I hid the server news item already. There is now a link just to the left of Date and Time (if using column format).

Yes - that is the server news. However, when a new server news is written, or if i ever decide to hide it, it'll be gone forever! (or until I go to the Server News Discussion Board and find it from there) lol

Kevin, if I click on my Main Page link in the menu, I see a link to the pond game at the top of my main page. Does it show up there on yours, too?

I also noticed (just now) the only link to Interviews is just above this board, and I cannot find a link to that pond game (except in the server news). Could these both be placed in the left (or top with row layout) menu please? :-)

A detail :-)

The new game - Don't need BKR's for it, but would love to see cool stats kept for it. (Like average amount of time to fall in the pond, or average first bet, etc.....)

Also my interview: I did not even notice this until mrloupcity just pointed it out to me, but 2 questions got mixed into 1.

Q. Do you own any pets? Can you tell us what they are and their names?

A. nope, do not like to read. Only thing I really read are some computer/networking magazines

(The question about what do I read is missing, and the answer about no pets except for my son or something like that is missing.) I'll have to check my home computer, which is down right now - will be reloading it tonight. Fun Fun. :-(

No weekend days.

what about weekend days ?

Btw, I hope that there are no holidays for this game. Otherwise it wouldn't make any sence...

You know of course that if this game has an enigmatic form, THEN the same game, with the exception of announcing any players play(how many points every player played) at the end of the turn, will create a totally different game that its enigmatic nature will be much higher and it will be based more on luck.
Now by knowing how much points every player has in any move, some mathematics can be applied to ensure in some cases "perfect play".

The "" at the perfect play have to be put, since there is no perfect play when randomness comes to play....This game is not a perfect-information-game, so there is no perfect play in general.

Chessmaster1000: I see. Of course, nobody knows other players' moves until the round is finished.

Well i don't mean that. I know that what you are saying will happen, i just mean until a move will end (for example move 4), noone can't see what other players play AT THIS move. Of course the validity of this is obvious, but i want to be sure.......

Hrqls: It will be displayed on the game page.

do you have to keep track of what everyone has left .. or is there a list of that as well ?

Luke: Yes.
