alanback: Yes, for the small picture - you can e-mail it to fencer at fencer@brainking.com - make sure you include your user name (and user # is also helpful if you know it.)

40x50 pixel picture - jpg format.

If anyone does not know how to do that and would like to use one that I set up - I'm pretty sure if you send Fencer a PM and let him know the page I listed below, and let him know which icon you would like to use, Fencer can pull it from there himself.

I actually have about 10 more that I made that I have not added to the page yet. When I change mine, I normally make a few to see which one I like best sized that small.

Again, the ones in the link are open for anyone to use if they want.

If you accept one of those invites, it will decrese (to 21x in your example)

Temo: Silly question?

This must have been asked - and answered - several times before, but since browsing through 300-odd pages is well-nigh impossible, hope someone will whet my curiousity:

In the Waiting Games page, below some games one finds in parantheses "nx", like (3x), (22x) etc. What does the number n stand for? Thanks 4 an answer from anyone.

Dryznik: The IYT Ladder system allows you to challenge 2 people within 20 places above yourself and have 2 challenges from other people below.

The BrainKing Stairs allows you to choose from 4 Steps (your own and the three below). That can mean a greater or lesser choice of players depending on how many people there are on those Steps. The fact that you look down rather than up to choose an opponent is a new perspective. It's too early to say how well it's going to work.

The GoldToken Ladders are the real "program induced" ones. Players are assigned to play one other on their current Step at random. That's neither a good thing nor a bad thing.

Fencer doesn't intend to sound rude when he says suck it up or go away... lolol.

Temo: Re: Stairs-Ladders

Dryznik: You remember wrong. You could only play a maximum of 4 games in any one ladder and you were limited to playing those within a certain limit on the ladder.

6. Novembro 2005, 19:02:29

Temo: Re: Stairs-Ladders

Dryznik: Do not forget we have a Discussion board to talk about stairs.

Anyway, the computer program does not pick who you can play - you can choose anyone on the same (or below) level as you to play.

6. Novembro 2005, 18:41:59

Temo: Re: Stairs-Ladders

Dryznik: Your "freedom living" is to choose a site which fulfils your criteria the most. Nobody is forced to play here. Our system is our system and I won't change it.

6. Novembro 2005, 18:37:16

Dryznik

Temo: Stairs-Ladders

As I recall Ladders at IYT any lower rung player could challenge anyone on the ladder and have several games going at once on that Ladder. That made challenges and play more worth playing--instead of 'program induced' persons to play! Not able to choose who one plays is like losing freedom living. Isn't Brainking made up of teamwork to make the site, games and player's challenges better for overal enjoyment?

Temo: Re: Stairs - Why?....

Fencer: I suppose my writing style might have led you to believe I was complaining, but I was questioning the workings of it. It doesn't make sense to me and if I was going to play it I needed that resolved well enough for me to give it a try. Just because you put a lot of time and effort into something doesn't mean that what is created is final, complete, or finished. This site itself is a good example of that, let alone any additions you make to it.

I will save any further questions I have for the "Stairs" feature for that board .

5. Novembro 2005, 10:41:27

Temo: Re: Stairs - Why?....

Walter Montego: What I want to say is that I spent too much time and effort to create the Stairs system and I don't want to change it when one person complains. A perfect system doesn't exist and there will be always someone who doesn't like it.
Btw, there is Stairs discussion board.

Temo: Re: Stairs................

Walter Montego: From the few times I have played in some similar "ladders", I remember that the biggest point of the system is that the person you challenge can't decline, so you will get to play opponents that would have declined your challenge in normal time.
