Asunto: Re: Ponds rules

Marfitalu: In the ordinary "Run around" pond the player who puts up the least amount of money in each round goes out.

In the "Run in the Rain" Pond there are two players who go out per round - the highest as well as the lowest. Example: Round 1, Round 2...

In the Dark version nobody knows who has bid what amount in previous rounds until the pond is finished. Examples: Finshed, Still going

Marfitalu:
The 21th. FAQ talk about the rules of the ponds, but who read the FAQs?
There is already a link at the top of the page of pons

Matarilevich: I think Marfitalu's question was about the fact that the text doesn' have any reference to "Run in the Dark" ponds, not about not having any pond rules at all ;)

pauloaguia: I agree. I have just modified this in the spanish translation adding one extra point about "Run in the Dark"

17. Noviembre 2005, 18:11:07

I will organize the Ponds rules better, just after finishing the missing Help topics.

It´d miss one more entry in the page of details (paid membership) about ponds. I think it´s only for BrainKnight or higher.

17. Noviembre 2005, 18:30:54

Asunto: Re:

Matarilevich: That will be replaced by the Help system as well. It's better updatable.

It will take a little time to explain , fencer was gone for meeting of czech players of BK :)

19. Noviembre 2005, 10:20:01

Why does he need to explain? The site went down for a while - it happens! No harm caused and we're back now.

657: Ah, 657, you're American so you wouldn't understand. Brainking's discussion boards are part of what makes it great here. Why? Because the #1 game in Britain is Complaining closely followed by the Whinging and Moaning variants. Even if everything's going perfectly we'll complain that it's only a matter if time before it all goes wrong.

19. Noviembre 2005, 16:32:00

by playBunny's reasoning, we should be restricted by nationality! British folk should be allowed more since its our nature to complain

19. Noviembre 2005, 18:05:07

Asunto: Re:

Eriisa: So we arent entitled to complain, is that what your saying.

They're not complaining, they're picking each others' noses and loving it!

The following was a message sent to me, havent a clue who the person is, but he is so very right in what he says.

you see what happens - the "moderators" are
so incredibly low, WHAT complaining? I read it,
you were just asking. But instantly a bunch of
blablas shows up to jump you.

Bry

Asunto: Re:

Princess Alison: well, i'm a moderator, so perhaps i'm biased? but to me, i just read the majority of your posts as negative, rather than "complain". Just my "view" - not meant to be insulting or offensive.

In any event, I dont think recent posts are what this board is intended for.

19. Noviembre 2005, 19:48:43

Asunto: Re:

Bry: Thank you for saying my posts arent acomplaining ones. Post of my posts are in Jest and a giggle, and if that something that we arent allowed to do, that what a sad site this is. Most of the moderator that are on here (present company accepted), take things far to seriously on here.

19. Noviembre 2005, 19:49:25

<P>S I apologise for my spelling and grammar but i am typing in the dark here lol

Asunto: Re:

Princess Alison: OK.

Now let's all use the board for which it was intended.

19. Noviembre 2005, 20:06:28

Enough. Last 3 posts deleted, and if you think thats taking things seriously, thats probably because this is a board for serious subjects. If you want to have a jest and a giggle there are more appropriate baords which we're always pointing out to you.

i'm sorry to keep asking this over and over, but if the information's posted in a static place on the site i don't know where to find it: what's the required point size for an image that's to appear at the top of a fellowship's page?

i found the sizes for profile images in the FAQ, but i didn't see the size for fellowship images.

thanks...

Asunto: Re:

plaintiger: Fellowship logos should be 120 x 75 pixels jpg and sent to Fencer.
That's 120 horizontal, 75 vertical.

LOL, actually, I didn't remember myself. I went to the fellowship board and did a search on 'pixels'.

(Thanks Cariad. I shamelessly c&p'd her post)

Marfitalu: Yes, of course it can be done. The only reason why I didn't do it so far is that people could be confused by the names which would be referring to non-existent domains. The Czech board is named BrainKing.cz but this domain actually exists and is registered [and owned] by me. What if someone else registeres BrainKing.fr or BrainKing.es and puts something completely different there?

Marfitalu: But if you hover the mouse cursor over the board link in the Favourive Boards section, the language would appear as a tooltip.

How about (cz)BrainKing.com, (es)BrainKing.com, etc...

20. Noviembre 2005, 22:45:05

brainking's been a lot less reliable since the last "upgrade," hasn't it?

it certainly has for me.

Asunto: Re:

heavenlyemma: interesting. my browser's been unable to connect to it a lot since the "upgrade," and it's been slower. i mention it, in fact, because the site was just inaccessible for five or ten minutes about ten minutes ago. that's the kind of thing that's been happening to me a lot lately. and i'm not having problems with any other websites...
