I must be going crazy, I could have sworn that didn't happen in the past. Sorry for wasting everyones time looking at numbers and formulas. At least we all understand how the numbers are applied now :)
yes, and not only that i'm about to lose a game against an unrated but obviously good player. I may be hitting that floor soon! (see formula page if you don't understand that)
someone work out a bkr change for me please.
I played 5 games and had 2031.
I win against unrated they go to 1300 I stay 2031
I win against 1480 they stay roughly the same I stay 2031. so now 7 games, but not changed, surely these last two should have changed me by 1 or 3 or something small.
pS I can understand no change if I had played many games, but only 7 so far, so thought there would be some change that was not really a sensible one like normal when only a few games played
Apparently the system corrects for ratings going down when winning though.
You can't expect to gain anything playing against players rated 700 points lower than you.
Thanks :o) I probably got too much alcohol in blood to grasp that page at the moment LOL
So from what you worked out Grenv, if you win but would go down because of it, it says bkr wont change because a drop for a win is wrong :o)
Thanks :o)
I think a nice feature here would be,when someone was registering a new account,the name of that account be shown too.For example: Linda J registering new account Bozo.
Seems it would deter some mutiple Id's
Fencer, is there still that glitch that shows some people logging in as 'registering a new account'? Just wondering! LOL, I've seen a few people listed as doing that and wondered...!
I suggest to allow en-passant rule in screen chess and crazy screen chess. I used to this rule in chess and was very amazed that this is not allowed when playing one screen chess game.
I have a tourny that I am in, and playing, that the fellowship has been deleted by the boss, when I go to the tourny page it says null, but still running ...mmmmmm... I thought the tournies disappeared normally
There seems to be a lot of people changing their nicks ... some, like BIG BAD ?, are easy to follow but others are not and I am easily confused. Would it be possible to have in each person's profile a list of the names that they have used in previous lifetimes (not talking about multiIDs here).
That would be a good idea. And if it was something that could not be done, a good suggestion to users if you are going to change your name is to put in your profile something like "Once known as XXXX"
I think its a very good idea. Maybe being able to have more than one Username per i.d. that way, like you changed yours BBW, it lets you have a bit of fun at certain times.
I changed mine earlier in the year and someone took MadMonkey straight away to teach me a lesson. Luckily they let me have it back though :o)
when a user creates an account you should pick a permanant id (eg for me it could be jason091068) then you always have that on your profile , so if there was 10 jasons i could look on the profile and see jason091068 and know who i was playing with ;)
my point is that a number (my case anyhow) isnt easy to remember a name is . yes i was refering to iyt way of things . you can change your name there anytime ... but in theory you can here if people know your id number
It can be,that you have some games of your partner or your opponent,which you want to observe constantly.
At the moment you first have to search these games.You have to click on the player`s profile,then on the tournement and then on the the special game,which you want to observe.
If you have a watchlist,you can put this (these) observed game(s)in the list und can see the games at once if you open the list.(Wow,complicated to declare for me:))
Oh, I see what you mean. Yes, that would be handy for chess players.
I know what you mean about searching through a player's profile to look for games! It takes ages.
I have tried it, yes and it works okay,if you only are observing two or three games.
But if more it will be confusing.
At the moment I bookmark these games with the Internetexplorer in a special folder.It`s better because I can name the links.
It would be very easy to create a webpage and just put links on there. there are many sites such as freewebs.com etc that you can create a site for free.
Why not use a web browser which supports tabs?
1. Mozilla, which has native support
2. and for example SlimBrowser which I use, which uses original Internet Explorer to display pages but supports tabs.
That way I simply have one window and 10 tabs in it, to display my favourite games and you can set stay here as default move.
(hide) If you want to find an opponent with similar playing skills to your own look in the Ratings page of the type of game you want and find a player with a similar BKR. (pauloaguia) (show all tips)
