Please go to the website of the search engine: www.google.com Then type in any title of a song you want to find. Hopefully it will come up with several websites related with that what you are looking for. I haven´t checked it myself, but the google site I find VERY useful for all sorts of search requests :-)

GoodLuck and let me know what you found!

Does a normal game, 5 wins match, 5 points match, 5 games match all give the same amount of points???

Get over it. To decline is reason enough. It says I decline and it would mean I can't, I won't and the list can go on.If you play I thank you, if you decline, I play someone else.

Subject: Re:
One way of fixing this "no explanation of a decline" is for Fencer to make the message part of the decline compulsory. That way you can be rude, if you wish to and decline by just putting an "X".
I have been declined a few times, with no explanation and assume it is because I'm such a lousy player LOL...Hey!!! who really gives a hoot :)

With all respect, that's the whole point about a discussion. To take situations, issues etc, and discuss. If you notice, the player involved has not been "discussed" since. Thus, he bares no significance now. But, the "issue", is quite an important one as far as I'm concerned, and needs to be addressed sooner rather than later.

Basically, from experience, it is hard not to hold a grudge against those who ignore, and especially decline without reason, an invite.

Sorry if this offends, but I feel this should be "discussed" whilst this site is still in it's infancy.

Subject: Re: normal behaviour
LMAO Stingeroni!! You expect ANYONE to believe you're rude or obnoxious?!! Nobody invites you cos they can see how many games you have running already!!

As for this invite, give it a rest! The poor guy didn't respond to an invite and its been the topic of conversation for two days!! I've played him and he's very nice polite, it was a mistake! And I for one am sick of hearing about it!! Its happened to a lot of us, me included. Dont worry about it, cancel the invite and dont send another. Simple! :o)

Any idea ?

Stinger 
Subject: Re: normal behaviour
If I decline, I decline without a response. I'm a rude, obnoxious SOB, and I ain't about to change for anyone. However, I don't have to decline anymore, cuz NO ONE INVITES ME!!!
I think the point that was originally brought up though is that the invite was sent out, and not accepted OR declined. Nothing! Nada!
My response to that would be that perhaps the person is not up to playing at that particular time, but would like to hang onto the invite to accept a day or 2 later. I have done that at times.

Subject: Re: normal behaviour
courteous but not necessary to give a reason.. A polite No thank you or anything at all. You might not like the person so telling them that would hurt their feelings lol but still courteous to decline with some type of text

Subject: Re: normal behaviour
Ah, yes. There are two points here. First, I reckon no-one MUST reply to an invite. But yes, when declining, it would be courteous to give a reason.

Dragon 
Subject: Re: normal behaviour
Your missing the point Tonyh. If someone declines an invite, they must have taken the time in the first place to read it. To use your example, you wouldnt answer the phone and just put it straight down again!

24. January 2003, 17:29:02
Dragon 
Subject: Re: User Id's
Fencer, I understand why not to change users' id's. the user id in question is "dragon". I want to change my name to this. at IYT one can change their main name, so you could be playing against lots of people with the same name.

what im saying is, it is the user id that is fixed at IYT, but the name is what is displayed and able to be changed. confusing i know!

24. January 2003, 15:37:04

I'll try to do something with that.

Subject: Wonderful site
Just a short note to say that this site is wonderful. But it would be even better if there is someway that the colour of the board and pieces can be altered to suit individual players as some of us have visual problems.

Hello , Brainking.com is a very good place for playing correpondencechess, -variants and other boardgames.But I have two criticpoints : The variants "Maharadja Chess"(Good for Black) and "Horde Chess"(Good for White) are not balanced.

And I would be glad if I could play some of my favourite variants with the technics of Brainking.com.Some of them are "Januschess", "Omegachess", Great Chess.Is tis possible?
You can see the pictures,the "Presets" and the rules on my page http://schach.kreuzeruwe.de

Subject: Re: normal behaviour
Not too sure about this invite thing. Think about a telephone ringing. Must one answer it? Is it rude not to answer it? similarly with e-mails. It's seems odd that a guy doesn't deal with invites - but surely that is his/her business.

Which user is it? I must check him first, I cannot change one's name anytime, it is not fair.

Fencer, can you change the setting's so user's can have the same Id as another. I want to change my name, but somebody has it, and they have not returned to the site for 2 months.

Fair points here, but Elma is right in my eyes, that when one invites, they should at least get a reason for the decline!

To Mikumon: O.K. I forgive you for this one time.
Maybe I am raised "old fashioned" but when I receive an invite I accept or I decline and give a reason why I am declining. For me that is normal behaviour

If you have her as an enemy she can not send you an invite, but if she has you as an enemy by accident, she could still send you one (i think lol)

Have tried a few times to invite a friend Raviloi ruby to a game. it starts to put me thru the invite and I click what game type, then when i click send it pops up to the list of game types.. so i try to invite her from there and click on list of pals ( which she is in ) but her name isnt listed... help! There is no way even if i try to invite her to a game from the message box of an old game can i send one out to her

As a token of gratitude, for all Fencer has done on this site to make it a great place to play & make new pals I thought now is a good time for us to start telling him on here on these boards.
So far a great job & can only get better in time.
Thanks Fencer.

Subject: Re: normal behaviour
Elma, Czechs are not raised to offend people.In the case of this man...I think he doesn't want to neither ignore you nor decline you...he wants to play with you as soon as he finish one of his games and then he can accept your invitation. This is what I think is going on. People do that sometimes to me...they kind of put me into waiting line...well, that's ok with me...if I do not want to wait...I just cancel invitation. Do not put him into your enemies, please...he is a good man...better...write him letter that it upsets you.I think he is not aware of you being offended right now.
