After exactly 190 days of playing BK, I just won my 1000th game (having accumulated 631 losses in the same period, which was the easier part)

Gabriel Almeida: I hope not (BK becoming a meeting site).
Looks like there are people out there that are dumb enough to answer these ads (or they would have given up on it).
Maybe we should have a BKR rating for this too? If you fall for it, 'you lose the game' and rating points; if you can control yourself to ignore it, you 'win' and go up?

don't know why, fencer is like a tax collecter. but if one does some own black economy, i'm not telling. if we only could play for cash of a sort.

7. January 2012, 03:32:18

paypal is not sellpal. company is fraudulent to sellers except you sell rooks.

I think with paypal it's a case of 99.9999% of the time there are no problems, but with any unlocal system (as Fencer has experienced) they can get it wrong. And with a lot of companies (and as witnessed owner/directors/politicians) they don't like admitting they've got it wrong.

Subject: Re:

Thom27: I have just looked it up

Never heard of it before. It seems a sort of cross between Chess & Jungle (with some Breakthrough in as well lol) from what i have read. I know Fencer has many games on his list that have been asked for, and i guess its a case of when he gets time, and which ones he chooses.

I must say though, this game 'Arimaa' does look fun, interesting and hard

I suggest implementing Arimaa. Till September is plenty of time to cope with the complexity of this game.

Edit: link to Arimaa

I suggest increasing all ratings by 10 points.

5. January 2012, 16:32:04

Fencer, as Brainking is going to be 10 years old in September

, can we come up with something to celebrate ?

Subject: Re: Paypal

Purple: I own a german bank account but I live in the US (which is uncommon but not illegal, I understand), and when I tried to connect that bank account to an PayPal ID, they asked me for a verifiable German residency address. As I couldn't provide one, they declared me a fraudster, and not only locked my eBay account too, but informed the police. Now they are not willing to discuss the case in anyway anymore.

But that should not affect anyone else. I know at least two people that used it without issues for BK last week.

Hello everyone! I'm thinking of buying a membership but I'm not sure if they have a paypal or credit card option? I remember long ago I think paypal was removed or people had problems with it. Just want to make sure before buying if paypal is available and theres no problems :)
