Very very small... I mean a medium would be too big! I was just wondering...no big deal...

Yes, I forgot about multiple game boards.

Not sure how that works - since the Backgammon and Nackgammon cover 2 different games. And I Battleboat board covers all 3 versions. :-)

And Reversi 10x10, Nackgammon, and Halma 10x10 are the ratings shown on the boards which include them along with other variants.

Check the profile of someone who posted on that board to see which of their ratings is shown. It's Dark on the Battleboats board and Crazy on the Screen and Crazy Screen Chess board.

You mean on the game board discussions. ie Reversi discussion board.

I just noticed it too. But how do we know which rating is being shown on the boards with multiple variants?

I see that posters' ratings are now shown on the game boards. :)

I still don't see why I have 3 day matches being inflated to 10 days. Weekends don't account for that, and it's happening on several boards.

And thanks, Harley. World politics and boardgames don't mix to well in my head. *lol*

again, there was no question. there are rules, there are weekends,
there are player profiles - there's your choice. choose shorter. simple. ~*~

Subject: yes of course ... 0:)
mistakenly you chose not the 15days game, because you forgot to add the weekends. ~*~

31. July 2004, 00:15:09
Czuch 
Subject: Time outs..
If both players have different weekend days set, does that add 4 days a week to the game time limits?

It seems this is the case, as I have a game with a 21 day limit, that has 33 days left. That would be 3 weeks plus 2 days a week for their weekends, and 2 days a week for my weekends, which is 12 extra days, making 33 days correct.

But if this is the case...Does it make any sense for my opponent to have my weekends added to their time limit? It doesnt seem right to me, does anyone have any idea what I am trying to say? :)

...is 408030 against Leonbergr. Or *was*, rather. He just stomped me. lol

I asked him if he set vacation days, but that was on the last move, and I don't know if he saw the message, or understood it. Here's the reference:

I'm playing in a 5 day/move tournament, at present all my opponents have at least 9 days despite the player with the least time having not moved for two days. Does it pass on to the next weekend or something? I never got the point of these weekends and for sure they should be limited to one weekend per move.

30. July 2004, 23:07:12
Crissie 
is it your game with Basic01? if it is i've looked at that game and don't see any vacation days set... hmmmm... so i don't know why your three day limit has expanded to nine days... sorry i'm not much help ...

30. July 2004, 23:07:12
Jason 
if holidays are taken/booked i think they show up at the bottom of the game board before you make a move (it worked this way in bk1 not sure about this version though)

30. July 2004, 23:00:56
PowerPygmie 
Subject: Good question...
He's a Pawn, so that would explain the extra 5 days. That's probably the reason, then.

I looked, and didn't see anything that says his vacation days are set. I guess that doesn't mean they aren't. I guess I just expected there'd be some sort of notification if an opponent took a holiday.

Or maybe I'm just blinder than I think...

:P

30. July 2004, 22:55:27
Crissie 
does your opponent have vacation days set? that may be the extra days :)

30. July 2004, 22:35:48
PowerPygmie 
Subject: Is this a bug, or just fuzzy math?
I have a game of loop chess currently in progress. The time limit is 3 day per move. My opponent *just moved*. Why does the status page say there are 9 days, 23 hours left until timeout?

*blink*

That's a helluva lot more than three days. Even if I lump the weekend hours onto that, that's still only 5 days. Why are there almost 5 extra days?

Well...it has just taken at least 4 minutes to get here again and ive found my problem is.....
I play my more and click "go to next game"
i then have to hit "refresh" otherwise I would be sitting her this time tomorrow LOLOLOL

I am with a good "provider" not a cheap, get everything for nothing, limited crap.

I have asked them what the problem could be abd they say,"they do not have any access problems to anywhere...

Fencer....could it be that my provider isnt compatible with something??? now dont start laughing, scoffing etc....i admit i dont know Jack ship (heheh) about things...but for me it seems to happen too often....Im serious here and would like some answers.....
cant play....so off to have dinner and will see all tomorrow :)
