Mamba: If the ratings don't mean anything to you, or you don't like them, why not just play the games for fun and ignore the ratings?

Mamba - either pay for membership and contribute to a better, more stable games site here (which is what you are moaning about) - or go and play elsewhere. Simple. Like it or lump it. No-one is making you play here (for free).

Asunto: Mamba

There is an option of playing unrated. A check box as you create the game. And if you put in your profile that you only accept unrated games, you shouldn't have too much of a problem.
Its frustrating for everyone when this kind of thing happens, but there is no point getting angry about it. It can't be helped :o)

And anyway - no-one is perfect, so from time to time, s*it happens, to be politically uncorrect. So, unless you personally are perfect, let others not to be too. And ... if you will be not angry with things you can't prevent,your life will be much happier

Asunto: Suspended time

Currently the game time is suspended. When it is suspended, is the auto-refresh suspended also?

And, how I do know Fencer, he will gladly extend your membership before it ends, no matter he has the money yet or not, when he is ensured the money is on its way.

If I post a link to a game position at another site, will BrainKing non-members be able to view the game?

23. Noviembre 2004, 03:30:39

rod03801

Yes, ughaibu..
They see the page as a "Guest"

I just tried it.

Asunto: resign question

I'm currently in a 3 win match.

If I resign, will it just resign the 1 game ------ or will it resign the whole match?

just the game I believe,

23. Noviembre 2004, 07:07:29

Just the game I believe :-)

23. Noviembre 2004, 07:08:32

mrloupcity: Yes, it's exactly how harley and Gror said.

23. Noviembre 2004, 20:38:40

what happens when game time isnt suspended anymore ?

i mean .. what happens to the games that have negative time left now ..

i guess games which are less than 1 day over time can use an automatic vacation day (when they have it set) .. does this also works for games with more than 1 day negative time left ?

are vacation days still used even though game time is suspended ? :)

23. Noviembre 2004, 20:41:29

All games with negative time left will be timeouted when the time is started. With suspended time, automatic vacation is not used.

23. Noviembre 2004, 20:43:16

thanks :)

and with automatic vacation days when games have more than 1 day of negative time .. will it use more than 1 vacation day or will they be timed out .. or will they use more than 1 vacation days

23. Noviembre 2004, 20:49:02

The script always adds only 24 hours when the automatic vacation is used. If the result is still negative, the next script invocation [each 10 minutes] will add another 24 hours, etc. Of course, only when the user has some vacation days left.

23. Noviembre 2004, 20:50:47

ah thanks :)

heh that will be fun in a few days :)

23. Noviembre 2004, 21:11:12

Especially if the remaining server collapses too :-D

23. Noviembre 2004, 21:40:14

Well make sure you have enough hampster feed to keep the server running!

Asunto: vacation question

Do vacation days run the calendar year or the date we became a member?

Do we all get a re-newed 30 days at the start of the new year?

24. Noviembre 2004, 03:59:27

You get a fresh 30 days on Jan 1st.

So if you have at least 20 days left, you can take December off! :-)

Asunto: re: Is there a limit to how much

Is there a question that Nirvana asked, which Fencer answered which was deleted? I searched through the past 50 or so post, and can not find anything from Nirvana?

24. Noviembre 2004, 16:17:12

I think Fencer needs a day off....the response should have been to scarlet,not Nirvana.Two TOTALLY different people.

24. Noviembre 2004, 16:18:03

It was about a maximum number of notes in the Notepad.
