Pedro Martínez: Perhaps 'vacation' was used with the foresight that American English would be used by the majority of BK members?

Sorry, rod Delete as necessary.

AlliumCepa: Good idea.

grenv:

Two games, switched colours?

Isn't that a bit unfair on him though? I mean the guy is a member and entitled to play as many games as he likes... and this is a games site!

Yes, but at least they have to go looking! We don't want to make it easy on the pawn trawlers do we?

But please make it available to members only.

danoschek: All moderators are moderated, Dano, by their fellow moderators and by Fencer.
Please don't pursue this topic here.

MidnightMcMedic Back on 11th January on this board Fencer said 'No more' after granting a wish for a teddy bear (no, I don't understand either!).

I guess he'll add more when he has the time and the inclination.

Is that a 'Fencer ehm, ehm'? Sort of a muted 'Fencer answer'?

I hate to be the one to break the news but there is no sanity clause.

Brian: I've already asked that there be no more mention of autopass on this board. Further posts and you will be put on 'hide'.

I can see both points of view regarding on which board to post on.
In an ideal world Fencer would have time to monitor all boards and pick up on suggestions for game changes. But he hasn't so I suggest that once an idea has been talked about on the respective game discussion board the final request/suggestion/proposal be posted here... which is one of the boards Fencer does look at frequently.

Your cerise frock was a giveaway.

Duw, I get the short straw!
Ok, gentleman and Stevie , the autopass issue has been flogged to death and now you've given Fencer more food for thought and told him you're not giving up on the idea.
Your point has been made and Fencer has, I'm certain, read your posts so please drop the subject from this board... for a few weeks at least!

Vikings: (from the board moderators):

Fencer: A member has recently issued a mild rebuke to the moderators of this board (although these mods have agreed that a couple of off topic posts are allowed if
a/ it is good natured banter
b/ an off topic subject is dealt with quickly and amicably)

so please take your post to the 'Mmmm, mmm, mmm board'.


Caissus Please take your post to the off-topic board.

:Þ

This is Feature Requests, peeps. Could you take this topic elsewhere please?
Thanks.

Singury, singleary, singlury, singly, singulaly. Doh!
I request a spell czech. :)

Nice idea in theory but I suspect a number of people change their nics to confuse or deceive.

redsales, in the version I posted a rat can eat a rat in the river but a rat can't eat an elephant by jumping from the river.
The panther can only make short jumps but both the tiger and the lion can make long and short jumps.

Duw, do you realize how idiotic the above looks to the casual reader? LOL

In the version I've played the rat can jump in the river and eat the other rat.
Anyway, judge for yourself (you need Netscape 3.0 or better)
Jungle

The rules of the Jungle game I've played on the internet are:

Each player moves one piece in turn.

Only one animal may occupy a square at a time. An animal may eat any weaker animal from the opposing side by moving onto its square. The one exception is that the rat may topple the elephant (by running into one of its ears and gnawing on its brain). When animals of identical strength meet, the moving animal eats the stationary one.

Only rats may enter river squares. A rat is therefore immune to attack while in the river, except from another rat. A rat may not attack an elephant from the river, though it may attack another rat in this way.

A lion or tiger at the edge of a river square may leap the intervening river squares and land on the nearest jungle square beyond. Any animal occupying that square that it could legitimately attack is destroyed. However, if a rat (from either side) occupies one of the river squares in the line of the animal's jump, the jump is blocked.

The red trapped squares on each player's side may be freely entered and exited by that player's animals with no penalty. An opposing player's animals lose all power on entering an enemy's traps, and are automatically weaker than any other piece.

Each player has a den which must be defended from the opposing player. No animal may be moved into its own side's den. If any player's animal enters the opposing player's den, that player wins the game.

Fencer said on 26th August that a doubling cube is on the TO DO list but there are more important things he has to do first.

What's a squirrel function?

Sorted!

On average, that's grey. LOL

Tidy mind, innit? :)

Ok. I nominate September 21st 2005. :)

Perhaps also a number next to the Big Boss's name showing how many fellowships they are Big Boss of.

I assumed that the membership donation was made to Fencer when the tournament was created or at least started. Silly me.

That sounds a good option MM.

Now I'm glad I don't play many different games! My little brain can't cope. haha

lovelysharon... I might have got this wrong but I think you can get to the bkr table for any specific game if you go through 'Ratings'.

23.21: cariad runs her bath while eating an apple turnover.

Yeah, a statue of Fencer. (Duw, what a thought!)

It'd make achange from garden gnomes - and I'm leaving this conversation pretty sharpish...!

Well bumble was going to add a rockery to the garden this year.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Wrong board....

Do you really want me to tell you? LOL

You mean I'll have to continue to write my ratings down on a piece of paper??? :o)

I think someone may have asked this before but how about showing a player's highest personal rating in each particular game, a sort of 'personal best'. It could be shown on the profile page.
It would be neat to have a reminder of what you have achieved and what to aim for.

If whale-song can sell maybe harley-song can too?
I don't think it would send people to sleep though. :)

dizave - Oops - typo! Thanks!

Eriisa: I know a few (although they're open to correction!)
Strarting with my own language of Welsh, i personally, use
Lwc dda, Pob lwc or Hawddamor.

Greek - kali tihi

Italian - Buona fortuna

Spanish - Buena suerte

French - Bonne chance

German - Viel Gluck

Swedish - Lycka till

Norwegian - Lykke til

Brilliant! Thanks a lot, Fencer, you're a superstar!

Hi again, Fencer! I suspect that many of my countrymen don't know what the Cross of St David looks like (gold cross on a black background). The official flag of Wales is a red dragon (y ddraig goch), facing left, on a background of which the top half is white and the bottom half green. Once seen, never forgotten! Thanks, Fencer. Thanks again to MadMonkey (I hope I've got your name right this time!)

Thanks (diolch!) OhhhhHum! I wouldn't have known where to look!

Hi, Fencer! I think the flags are a great idea but is there any chance you could include the Welsh, Scottish and English flags as well as the Union Jack? Lots of us are proud of our individual countries within the UK. Diolch yn fawr!
