You can look at it later but you haven't sent it. 20. August 2013, 10:00:02 Subject: Undoing a move within 3 or so minutes. You should be allowed to undo a move if your opponent hasn't responded and it's only like 2 minutes. I was using an board offline and then told myself to move like a knight, where there are 2 of them. I didn't realize I moved the wrong one. I just went to the computer and clicked on the other knight by mistake. I looked at the board 2 minutes later and realized, "That's the wrong piece!!!". 19. August 2013, 18:19:47 Subject: Re: jadarite: Looks like unchecking, refreshing, and then checking again resets things. 19. August 2013, 14:17:41 I am not getting email notices when my opponent makes a move. I have it checked in settings. 18. August 2013, 09:29:40 Subject: Re: Paying members  Pedro Martínez: hahahahaha.....correct 18. August 2013, 08:59:33 Subject: Re: Paying members  Justaminute: I think the word "life" in your post is quite unnecessary. :) 18. August 2013, 08:22:15 Subject: Re: Paying members Bernice: I think Brainking is a great site, but given Fencer's posts that basically amount to "i don't care about Brainking anymore", anyone buying life membership now would need their head examining 17. August 2013, 00:57:43 Subject: Re: Paying members  Bernice: Where is that dang Like Button!! LOL 17. August 2013, 00:00:55 Subject: Re: Paying members Thad: I dont know about comparisons but I do know there are ONE HELL OF A LOT of players that are no longer playing here for one reason or another :( and some of them are life members as well 16. August 2013, 13:21:52 Subject: Re: Gold Token Roberto Silva: It's a weird rule and as far as I know only GT uses it. It's optional, games can be set up as timeout=loss of turn or =loss of game. It has several unforeseen consequences. 16. August 2013, 02:17:26 Subject: Paying members Does anyone know how the number of Brain King paying members today compares with the numbers from years back? Are there more today? Or fewer? 16. August 2013, 01:21:58 Subject: Re: Gold Token  Aganju: well your opponent can then time out as well, and so on. Not sure if there's a limit or not. 16. August 2013, 00:07:42 Subject: Re: Gold Token  rabbitoid: timeout = loss of turn? So if you get in 'Zugzwang', you simply time out, and it is your opponent's turn? That should blow up many games. 15. August 2013, 22:49:56 Subject: Re: Gold Token  rabbitoid: Madness 15. August 2013, 19:27:40 Subject: Re: Gold Token ketchuplover: No, still ongoing. http://www.goldtoken.com/games/play?g=115447
The statistics are interesting. It's a 15-day game. For both players it's their only ongoing game. It started on 24 Oct 2001 when Goldtoken was barely 2 years old. , Only 254 moves so far. Goldtoken shows think time (Fencer! PLEASE!!). The clocks read: NLStardust : 432 days = about 1 year 2 months. 3334: 2219 days = about 10 years 7 months. The last piece taken was on move 167, which was played in 2008. Please note that the game is played under Glodtoken's queer "timeout = loss of turn" rule. 3334 timed out twice so far. 15. August 2013, 15:16:49 Subject: Re: Gold Token  Purple: 3334 "won" that game 14. August 2013, 05:14:20 Subject: Re: Ludo.  coan.net: Or that group game you suggested a while back. I think that would be fun. 12. August 2013, 01:30:17 Subject: Re: Ludo.  Marshmud: That is why I keep mentioning it every once and awhile - I know he is busy with real life, but you never know when he might feel like sitting down for awhile and doing a little programming of a new game. Something like this, or maybe a 6 color logik game variant would be something he can do some-what easily. 11. August 2013, 23:52:11 Subject: Re: Ludo. Pedro Martínez: ROFL ................Pedro 11. August 2013, 23:46:56 Subject: Re: Ludo. Marshmud: I'm sure it would… If… :)) 11. August 2013, 23:42:58 Subject: Re: Ludo.  coan.net: On August 23 2010 you asked Fencer to implement that game and he said it would be easy. 11. August 2013, 23:12:24 Subject: Re: Ludo. coan.net: That would be a far more interesting version of Ludo. 11. August 2013, 23:01:55 Subject: Re: Ludo. coan.net:I like the idea of making a more interesting Game of Ludo although it surely would create a much longer version with more strategy involved. 11. August 2013, 21:16:52 Subject: Re: Ludo. crosseyed: I would love to see Fencer add Express Ludo to the site - the same game setup, with the following changes: You can take a piece out of your home area with a 1 or 6 You roll 2 die EVERY TURN, and only 2 die - doesn't matter if you get a 6 and get an extra roll - just 2 roll each turn. You can also use the 2 rolls like gammon - can use each die for different pieces, or same piece, in any order (but like gammon - have to use both if possible). For Ludo being one of the most popular games on the site - and people liking games that are quicker - think it would be a very popular variant (and hopefully not very much extra programming.) 11. August 2013, 20:52:29 Subject: Re: Ludo. Artful Dodger: Think it is never right to have so many passes. And that is what puts me off play Ludo in here. 11. August 2013, 17:35:42 Subject: Re: Ludo.  crosseyed: I got out a couple of times but kept getting sent back in. I had 53 moves, 35 of which were passes. Only 3 times did I roll a 6. Each piece was knocked back in. I think it's likely rare as it's never happened to me before. But it would be interesting to calculate the odds! 11. August 2013, 12:15:19 Subject: Re: Ludo. Artful Dodger: I kept saying that game had a bug. So I won't play it now. 11. August 2013, 01:55:43 Subject: Re: Aganju: I should get some sort of achievement recognition for that. Oh Fencer!!! 11. August 2013, 01:55:01 Subject: Re: Aganju:  I should have quit when I was behind!10. August 2013, 23:24:42 Subject: Re: Artful Dodger: sometimes you need to accept superior strategy. You are just not up to that level of play... ;-) 10. August 2013, 23:00:52 Check out this game. Yeah, I lost.  Ludo (Artful Dodger vs. Wilhelmina)23. July 2013, 13:26:56 Subject: Re: Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is...  Walter Montego: me too! 23.

July 2013, 11:27:58) Walter Montego: Like you this site is worth lots to me too. I think it's a great site to play in when all is working as it should. Long may this site continue to run. 23. July 2013, 08:10:05 Subject: Re: Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Modified by Bernice (23. July 2013, 08:10:26) Walter Montego: agreed Walter...the GLOBS as they aare/were called for short have a lot to answer for don't they....strange how people know that but dont say it....thanks very much for confirming what I (and others) have been saying for years. 23. July 2013, 04:00:05 Subject: Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... This site is worth lots to me. I wish Fencer was more active like he was eight years ago, but it's still a great site. I too am a lot less active on this site than I was back then, but I blame that on the creation of the global moderators and some of the things that happened at the beginning of that period. In fact, it was a link by you Pedro that tricked me into ending my personal embargo of this discussion board. 22. July 2013, 16:32:57 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Heluvagi: I don't think he can be arsed. He has stated several times that BK is no longer one of his priorities. This and the deterioration of this site I (and actually, we all) have been experiencing is also making me believe that BK is not worth much for the time being. 21. July 2013, 21:55:13 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Heluvagi: he is probably laughing himself to death as he holidays in some foreign location LOL 21. July 2013, 11:45:45 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... I wonder what fencer's making of all this. 21. July 2013, 11:43:54 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is...  rod03801: I would take a wild guess that it would be...anyone who buys it. 21. July 2013, 08:55:53 Currency of Thailand. Looks like it take 31 of them to make 1 U.S. dollar. XE has all the currencies: http://www.xe.com/currency/thb-thai-baht?r=1 21. July 2013, 06:35:33 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Bernice: what is baht? 20. July 2013, 08:35:06 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Pedro Martínez: I would say this is more like it....very poor dollars if sold.... but as I said BAHT....would make it about the same MAYBE ROFL..... 20. July 2013, 00:59:19 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Pedro Martínez: haha I checked my blog and it's worth 9 dollars. It's owned by blogspot. I do get about 50-100 page visits a day and am nearing the 200,000 page visits marks. As for the 9$ worth of my blog, that's twice as high as I'd rate it. 19. July 2013, 23:21:46 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Artful Dodger: ranging from 72,000 to over 370,000 I am more inclined to trust these estimates: http://awcheck.me/en/site/brainking.com http://brainking.com.w3snoop.com/ 19. July 2013, 22:54:41 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Artful Dodger: 72,000 to over 370,000 WHAT? peanuts? lollipops? Baht perhaps LOL. 19. July 2013, 22:54:16 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Artful Dodger: "worth" and what you could actually get for it are usually two different things.I'm not sure what the market is these days 19. July 2013, 22:38:46 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... ranging from 72,000 to over 370,000. 19. July 2013, 19:15:03 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Pedro Martínez: Funny. You can Google : "What is Brainking.com worth?" and you find figures that are quite different from each other. Wonder who determines which is "correct". 19. July 2013, 18:17:42 Subject: Re: This site's current estimated worth is... Pedro Martínez: so would i Pedro. i have been playing at this site for years. i think ketchup needs to take math 101 again. << < 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 > >> |
