I'll be sending bwildman his questions tomorrow, then he has to reply to them all (its best not to rush that!) and send them back. They will appear on the BrainKing.info site shortly.
BBW's interview should be there soon too :o)
so, while one is waiting to be posted, the other is answering them and a third one is already getting his questions prepared... sounds like an interview assembly line :)
Well, not always! It depends how busy Fencer is as to how quickly it appears at the bk.info site, and how quickly people answer the questions! I don't think its a good idea to rush the answers, because you always think later that 'such a reply' would have been better!
I think this is the first time we've had 3 interviews in the pipeline! Partly because BBW answered questions thoroughly and thoughtfully, and partly because Fencer has been busy with the new graphs and ratings. But we get there in the end :oD
In my settings I noticed an option: "[ ] Enable features using Javascript". I switched it on, but didn't see any difference. What features should I expect to be enabled?
AndreasKaufmann: Right now, there are only two Javascript features (both in testing process):
1) A HotSpot at top-left corner of each page. Move your mouse cursor there and it unwraps a clickable list of all games where you can make a move.
2) Big photos on several profiles (currently only me, Bobes and BIG BAD WOLF). Move a cursor over the icon.
I only had 5 anonymous questions, but 1 I know who asked it as a joke - so really only 4.
My question about the interview questions - do people have to keep asking the same questions for each person, or once you have a question - do you re-use it over and over.
Am I correct in thinking that if I place my cursor over (for example) fencer's picture on his profile, that I see a bigger one ? I understand that it's only him and 2 others at the moment, but it doesn't work for me atall ?? the top left hot spot works just fine though :)
there is a setting to allow java scirpt or something that must be checked in settings or some place like that in order for it to be seen. Is that not correct BBW?
BBW, yes, javascript enabled, using IE, and yes, I do have a pop-up blocker, but it's not suggesting that it's blocking anything.. as I mentioned, the cursor doesn't even change.. weird, eh ?! :)
BBW, it depends.. if people ask that their questions be submitted for every interview, thats what I'll do. Then others are asked specifically for that person. There were rather a lot of anonymous questions for bwildman, maybe he makes the ladies too shy to speak!
About Purples post, maybe I was being over sensitive, but considering the tension between him and the person he posted about - I saw it as likely to cause offence. I apologise if it wasn't intended that way.
for info... normally when I place my cursor over anything, bottom left of my IE window it gives me a little description, like where it says 'Done' when a page has loaded. Well, when I hover over the aforementioned profile icons it says 'error on page'. Just thought this might be useful !? :-D
Wow that is interesting. I just looked at BBWs pic again and the 'done' was still visable. Maybe the guys on the computer board could help or explain or guide or or or..
Send me questions for the first golden rook member on BrainKing! I hardly know anything about this man, so am looking forward to adding my own questions! What better way to get to know somebody?!
Today 28 October 2004 my main page has this message:
"Warning! Your Brain Rook membership level will expire on 27. October 2004. You have -1 days left to renew your membership."
-1 days!!!!!! Very funny............
As my credit card has some problems, i can't renew right now my membership. I will do it at 10-20 November(the date my bank said that the problem will be fixed). But what this bizzare message means? :-)
Since i have been transformed to a poor Pawn, until i renew my membersip in about 10-20 days, what will happen to my fellowship membership?
I will be deleted from there? I can't even read the boards there:-(
