I have also the slow site load :(

It has been like this about 3 days now. I thought it was my browser however neither Google Chrome nor Mozilla Firefox are the problem.

It's hard to play like this.

Probably asked before, but... Is it not possible to pay with MasterCard? I only find VISA as an option. If MC is ok, can someone point me to the right place!

Subject: Re: Firefox 3.5 performance
Fencer: Or if you do not use any Add-ons, use Prism (which is also an Add-on as well as an application made my Mozilla)

It is not a browser, and it is so fast if you are just wanting to play all your games

Subject: Firefox 3.5 performance
I tried to start my Firefox 3.5 in a safe mode (all add-ons were disabled) yesterday, in order to test if the mentioned performance problem (related to the browser, not BrainKing) would happen again. Now, after more than 24 hours, everything is still very fast and Firefox does not consume any system resources when it is idle (compared to 50% before).

Well, that means that it must be one (or more) of Firefox add-ons that causes the mysterious CPU load. The only problem is that I use about 15-20 of them, so it can take some time to find out the source. But I will try.

Anyway, if you still have problems to use BrainKing with Firefox 3.5, either try to start it in a safe mode or use another good browser (Google Chrome, for instance).

Are you really talking about "judge" Judy here? What is her nickname? I'd like to invite her to a game of Scrambled Eggs.

Modified by Pedro Martínez (2. August 2009, 14:53:32)
NOT a floosie: Well, I think I can answer "Yes" to that question. Hanaslang was made by members of the Haná people (I used to be one of them, but opted not to continue working on it, as I had originally thought BK.hh would be just a translation of BrainKing into the Haná dialect), in part to make fun of themselves indeed. They did a very good job in my opinion and it sometimes really is a blast reading the Hanaslang. :)

Subject: Re: Hanaslang
NOT a floosie: The answer is no. It cherishes Hanaslang speaking, just like the alternative localisation Esperanto cherishes esperanto speaking people.

Subject: Re: Hanaslang
NOT a floosie: By Pedro's post I would say it was just a first go at creating an alternative language to that of czech and english. Being it a known language to Fencer, I would guess that such a conversion was easy even though not needed.

Pedro Martínez: ...goal of the Hanaslang version of BK was creating somewhat funny alternative to the original Czech version. :)


 


So it was made to poke fun at the people in the region of Hana?

Subject: Re: Hanaslang
MrWCF: Hanaslang is based on several dialects spoken in the eastern half of the Czech Republic, in particular on the one spoken in the region of Haná - hence the name. More than a serious localization, the purpose and goal of the Hanaslang version of BK was creating somewhat funny alternative to the original Czech version. :)

AbigailII & Czuch: lol .. i wish we had :)

the weekend takes away 2 days .. i usually play within 1 day (and most of the times much faster) but i prefer to have 2 days left per move when i log out ... so if the weekend doesnt count then i need 4 days per move when i leave on friday

monday is usually a busy day at work so i make less moves then

Maybe thats why Netherlands is one of the highest ranked places to live in the world, 3 day weekends

It allows you to see all those who sit at the top of the ratings list with a BKR of 2500+ despite the fact they have only played and won 4 games against low rated BKR players!
