3 weeks holiday would cost you about 10 to 15 vacation days what would happen to someone who first choses to have the full 30 days, and then later that year (when he used about 20 vacation days) switches to a couple of days per month ? 16. Diciembre 2005, 13:48:02 Asunto: Re: complainers about this great site emmett: I have had similar problems within a tournament. It would be helpful if the system would supply us with an average answering time for each player and game variant, and thus also would enable filtering such very slow players from tournaments. 16. Diciembre 2005, 14:22:31 Asunto: Re: complainers about this great site Modificado por Hrqls (16. Diciembre 2005, 15:01:28) SMIRF Engine: i like the idea about those stats :)
part edited as it continued a misunderstanding :) each tournament states the time a move can take ... consider that when you join a tournament (i wont play any tournaments with 1 day per move .. i rarely play a tournament without free days or fixed weekends only .. i sometimes play tournament with 3 days per move .. i like the longer tournaments ... although those can finish quite fast as well ... of course all this depends on the game type as well :) 16. Diciembre 2005, 14:32:37 Asunto: Re: Knights and tournaments emmett: It can't be said often enough. Knights who only play a subset of the games (eg. the gammons or in your case, chess) get a raw deal regarding touernaments. There should be a set number of tournamants, not one per game type. 16. Diciembre 2005, 14:33:02 I wonder if somebody can help me, i am currently in a "5 wins match" and have won the last 4 matches. My opponent seems to move once a week, which is getting on my nerves to be honest. The 5th game has started but no moves have been taken as yet, if i were to resign from the 5th game, would that mean that i lose the actually match all together??? 16. Diciembre 2005, 14:39:07 Asunto: Re: emmett: resigning wouldn't even help you. the whole section has to be finished before you can join another tournament. (or you could ask Fencer very nicely, he can free you from the tournament) 16. Diciembre 2005, 14:40:10 Asunto: Re: 5 yawns match. Princess Alison: You'd have to resign 5 times to get rid of the match. 16. Diciembre 2005, 15:03:40 Asunto: Re:  BIG BAD WOLF: now that I think of it BBW.. I must have had this happen to me twice in 2 days and lost like 4 days in 2... I know that when I do go away and set my vacation days I've learned to set the day before I leave as well as the day after I get back just to cover the time zone differences.. 16. Diciembre 2005, 15:11:23 Asunto: Re: complainers about this great site emmett: if anyone has taken my post as complaining..sorry you are mistaken.. I was supporting a feature the is important to me and why I thought it should not be changed.. .. I have seen changes happen here with the mere mention of it by one or two people.. just thought i would speak my view ... I'll be quiet now.. 16. Diciembre 2005, 15:21:09 Asunto: Re: Playing rate stats SMIRF Engine: I'd like more information about a player's rate of playing too. The number of moves per game per day would be useful. I'd even like there to be a new stats table listing people by this value. We have the most number of moves per day so why not a speed of playing table? Ideally different figures would be available for each game type, or perhaps variant, but even just the single all-encompassing figure would be most useful. 16. Diciembre 2005, 15:50:45 Asunto: Re:  lovelysharon: I've set my clock on BrainKing to be the same as the server/Fencer times (GMT +01:00) - that way I can easly see when the new server day will start. (If I need to know what time it is where I'm at, I can look at my clock on the wall) :-) 16. Diciembre 2005, 16:08:21 Asunto: Re: Princess Alison: Call on that marvelous sense of humor and laugh it off :) 16. Diciembre 2005, 16:16:36 Asunto: Re: alanback: Me, i have a marvellous sense of humour, where did u get that from LOL 16. Diciembre 2005, 23:00:33 Asunto: Membership question  Okay.. I wish to get my mom a membership.. I noticed on the Paid Membership Link in the row of my membership it has an option to "change" and allows me to actually search for a user and replace my name with that ID.. now.. I wanna make sure if I do this my membership doesn't just transfer over to her.. but, it would allow me to go in and buy a membership.. for her..
Hopefully this isn't too confusing.. whichever way is easiest please let me know.. 16. Diciembre 2005, 23:01:57 Asunto: Re: Membership question Modificado por Adaptable Ali (16. Diciembre 2005, 23:02:23) ScarletRose: I am pretty certain that if you put your mums ID in where yours is, this will pay for the membership for you mum, but dont quote me on it. 16. Diciembre 2005, 23:15:32 Asunto: Re: Membership question ScarletRose: Like Princess Alison said, if you change the UserID to your mom's, it should go to here.
Plus during the PayPal process, there are places for "notes" - you can repeat what you want there just to make sure - since they will see the notes along with the payment. 16. Diciembre 2005, 23:29:40 Asunto: Re: Membership question BIG BAD WOLF: Thanks guys.. just finished it and finished updating PayPal..
I also noticed.. I wasn't credited for brains from a purchase of a friends membership back in Feb 05.. I noticed this when I was reviewing my account at Paypal and the Brains I have currently.. the dates don't match up.. months off actually.. I also should get the brains from this purchase as well.. I put this to note on the shopping basket section for notes.. Does this not get to whomever is assigned the deed of crediting brains?? LOL I am LOL cause on one of the note sections I mentioned to please send my brains to my account! LOL Sounds funny unless you play at BK.. 17. Diciembre 2005, 02:19:21 Asunto: Re: Membership question  ScarletRose: LOL, send a message to Fencer about the brains.
I use that change ID all the time when ppl send me their membership fees. 17. Diciembre 2005, 05:17:32 Asunto: Re: Membership question Eriisa: it has been corrected.. thanks 17. Diciembre 2005, 12:42:57 My missus heavenlyemma (ID 1131) bought me 6 months membership as a Christmas present.
She's yet to get credited her brains. 
Not that she hasn't got any brains  17. Diciembre 2005, 12:57:43 Asunto: Re: BIG BAD WOLF: that maybe easy for you as regards to the clock... I have several time zones to deal with .. my kids live 3 hours going the other way and I work graveyard shift.. .so I never know wheither it's day or night even when I look out the window.. lol.. 17. Diciembre 2005, 18:36:10 Asunto: Re: Jules: If they couldn't be bothered to give me them when I gave my money to this site what makes you think I want them now? It should of been automatic geesh. 17. Diciembre 2005, 19:00:40 17. Diciembre 2005, 19:08:26 Asunto: Re: Eriisa: Has it always been like that? 17. Diciembre 2005, 19:26:23 Asunto: Re: heavenlyemma: I'm not sure, to be honest... but I've known it for quite a while. 17. Diciembre 2005, 19:29:51 Eriisa: Aye. I seem to recall that from when I read that page back when I joined. It makes sense, too, as "referral" implies new members. 17. Diciembre 2005, 19:40:57 Asunto: Re: Modificado por heavenlyemma (17. Diciembre 2005, 19:41:45) playBunny: You've got no brains either nahhh 17. Diciembre 2005, 19:50:18 heavenlyemma:  You're close to the truth there. My current sleeping pattern has left me very fuzzy-brained.  18. Diciembre 2005, 23:24:51 Asunto: Re: Time control Marfitalu: Your opponent(s) have put many days as vacation days which is why you are seeing the strange days left for some games. 18. Diciembre 2005, 23:26:30 Asunto: Re: Time control Marfitalu: he also has different weekend days set 18. Diciembre 2005, 23:28:56 Asunto: Re: Time control Modificado por Kili (18. Diciembre 2005, 23:30:02) Marfitalu: It´s correct. Check the profile of MrLoupCity. He has all days until 3 of January as vacation because he has monday and thusday as weekend days and he still has vacation days. The other game, i can´t see it but it can be the same situation. 19. Diciembre 2005, 03:42:59 Asunto: Re: Time control Modificado por DeaD man WalkiN (19. Diciembre 2005, 03:44:01) Matarilevich: So u think I'm trying to time control. Ask every1 I'm playin I try to make a move in games at least every 2 days if not 2 or 3 times a day. I'm going out of town next week and just put the rest of the month on vac. SORRY if u think it's time controling. I just don't need the vac days left. hehehe
:o{) 
oops forgot back to my couch in the corner to hide poof. 19. Diciembre 2005, 16:20:54 Asunto: Re: Time control mrloupcity: I didn´t say you are trying to time control. I only explained to Marfitalu the reason about a big time left in that game. 19. Diciembre 2005, 16:45:50 Asunto: Re: Time control mrloupcity: Is someone feeling guilty? LOL 19. Diciembre 2005, 19:22:12  ok thats enough, thanks :O) 20. Diciembre 2005, 00:42:12 Asunto: new someone Modificado por DeaD man WalkiN (20. Diciembre 2005, 00:43:14) would say that everytime I reply OK thats enough. or back to chuckers starting something when I talk BYE see every1 next year...
:o( 20. Diciembre 2005, 12:50:10 merry christmas and happy new year. 20. Diciembre 2005, 14:20:12 Asunto: Interview  harley When's the next interview coming up? 20. Diciembre 2005, 15:37:02 Asunto: Re: Interview emmett: Mine will be on its way to you soon! I just sent harley my answers. 20. Diciembre 2005, 16:22:40 Asunto: Re: Interview pauloaguia & Emmett: The next interview is with Pedro Martinez and should be soonish  20. Diciembre 2005, 19:33:50 Asunto: Voodoo at Brainking:-) Modificado por Chicago Bulls (20. Diciembre 2005, 19:34:07) I've seen the statistics of robtoo for Battleboats and he has 87 wins and 2 loses.
That can't be real since battleboats is a game of mainly luck! But i've discovered the reason. From his 87 wins the 79 were wins by time out of the opponent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So i wonder what kind of voodoo makes to his opponents and they run out of time? 
Just kidding about the voodoo-part but i still wonder...... 20. Diciembre 2005, 19:35:11 Asunto: Re: Voodoo at Brainking:-) Pythagoras: if you go to the backgammon board you´ll find the reason for it... 20. Diciembre 2005, 19:41:21 Oh, so he is a player that is based on winning on time? LOL! That is quite new way of winning..... 20. Diciembre 2005, 19:42:11 Asunto: Re: Voodoo at Brainking:-) Modificado por playBunny (20. Diciembre 2005, 19:42:30) Pythagoras: We discussed him on the backgammon board, too (Top 9 messages from the link). Some of his opponents don't realise the implications of the 11-hour-zero-bonus clock that he uses. Others think he's using that clock because he wants a fast game but discover that he stalls until they cannot stay at their computer. Then he moves and their clock runs out while they're asleep or at work. Strictly speaking it's legal but I consider him a cheat. 20. Diciembre 2005, 19:57:31 Modificado por Chicago Bulls (20. Diciembre 2005, 19:58:00) Since a legal thing is a legal thing and i am as pedantic as it goes, i call it fair!
Clever way of winning, yet i would not put him on my friends or approve his behaviour..... I could call him a moron but i won't, since the moderators silently spy everything from above 
He thinks he does something clever and he admires himself believeing that he is a superior brain that is fooling everyone, but the only thing he does is to spend his time on stupid things while he isn't realising that his time is coming to an end. The day that he will realise this, would be too late..... On the other hand he may be an 80 years old man, that did everything in his life and wants to try something new! 20. Diciembre 2005, 20:45:25 Pythagoras: Yes, there's something sad and pathetic about someone who makes such cheating** their priority (even if they are 80, lol).
(** "cheating" defined in a vaguer, more human and less "ruley" sense )20. Diciembre 2005, 21:00:04 Asunto: Re:  Pythagoras: I'd hardly call this a "clever" way of winning. 20. Diciembre 2005, 21:11:24 Asunto: Re: Pedro Martínez: I would hardly call it winning. 20. Diciembre 2005, 22:24:06 Asunto: Re:winning emmett: Here is a thought. If he won so many on time outs would that indicate all the other ID's he won from are made up pawns he setup in order to win? 20. Diciembre 2005, 22:24:08 Asunto: Re:winning emmett: Id say its sorta cheating, cos they are cheating themselves as much as their opponents.. Id rather win by merits not by cack handed tactics << < 327 328 329 330 331 332 333 334 335 336 > >> |
