Asunto: Automatic Logging Onto BrainKing ..... ?

Does anyone know if this option was changed recently ? I use to be able to automatically Log In directly to my games page, but now I have to enter my User ID and password every time I visit .......?

This was changed when Fencer launched new version a couple of months ago, you can log out and check boxes that will rember your user Id and password when you log back in, however mine won't rember my password.

Asunto: discussion board problem

Fencer: I see the gothic chess discussion board messages wider than my screen. I have to scroll left-right to see the messages. it seems it has a character wrap problem. It shows the same using mozilla and (yuck) internet explorer. I didn't have the problem earlier today.
my screen is set to 1024*768.

22. Agosto 2004, 20:55:20

NOT a floosie

Abiodun, I haven't had any problems with the automatic log-in lately Try logging out and resetting your choice of log-in options.

Thanks Vikings !
I followed your suggestion and logged out. That's when I saw the 'remember me' option, which I checked. The system now remembers my User ID and password, but still doesn't take me directly to my games page. I have to click on 'Log On'. Oh Well .....guess I'll settle for this. Thanks Buddy !

or just, additionally to 'reply', a 'refer' link underneath,
properly used they could also lead back to where it starts
although some people certainly would not love that ... *grin* ~*~

as usual you are an idiot and as Jason said you have to keep taking people down.
If you read the message board correctly you would see that I dont have a mobile phone and one is necessary to pay your account.
In future keep your mouth shut on matters that do not concern you.

my bank does not offer the American Express option im sorry....it is a building society and doesnt operate the same as a bank :(

Please tell me...can i send you a money order or something similar and if so because of the time it will take to send to you, will I be downgraded to a pawn?
When I have the relevant money order or bank cheque or whatever i can send you an attachment to an email if that will convince you that im genuine :( this is such a hassle

23. Agosto 2004, 09:46:41

Bernice: I am sure your credit card will work. Just use the cell phone number with correct international code.

23. Agosto 2004, 09:54:20

there was no SMS Fencer....there fore no code to put in :( still waiting and still no SMS, message:( we have cancelled it because my friend has to go home :(

Ive sent email offering other options...please advise

23. Agosto 2004, 09:56:34

+61 was our country code and that was there :(
it seems to do that automatically

23. Agosto 2004, 09:57:55

there is nothing wrong with my credit card...

it is the phone part

we have not recieved the sms with the confirming code so cannot go any further :(

23. Agosto 2004, 11:04:45

It works for me.

23. Agosto 2004, 14:08:55

LongJohn

I personally think that if someone fails to make a payment in time they should be relegated to pawn status but maybe with Bernie we should make allowances for if she is late in paying :)
Keep trying Bernie

BerniceC - It sounds to me it might be a lot easier to just send the money to the Aus. customer service person (WhisperzQ) and then let them send the payment to Fencer - that is if WhisperzQ is willing to help out.

Asunto: Re: Vacation days

Yes, if someone created an account on December 2nd (rook, of course), they could set all 30 days for the remaining 30 days of the year and on January 1st they would have 30 more.

still being the absolute idiot...you havent heard of anyone else having problems??? here is part of a message I received from WhisperzQ

***Hi Bernice

I have recently renewed my membership too and was not particlularly fussed with the options available.

Eventually went with the Paypal option as we already have a paypal account which we use for a few things ... the MoneyBrokers one scared me a little and it is not free (for us Aussies). ***

Recommendation.....shut your mouth and keep out of other peoples business.....Sorry Harley

No more to be said on this matter....the boy is a fool, and children should be seen and not heard :)

24. Agosto 2004, 02:45:33

Hope this is the right place to ask? I just looked at ratings on Dark Battleboats. Stevie has a lower rating then me yet he is 3rd place and I'm 4th..how come?

24. Agosto 2004, 02:50:46

rod03801

Skyking, there is a known bug with the ratings lists.. It will eventually be correct.

24. Agosto 2004, 02:53:38

Thanx rod. I was feeling proud LOL

25. Agosto 2004, 15:03:27

Now what's the difference between that rating and provisional ratings?

25. Agosto 2004, 15:05:46

Stevie

provisional is when youve only played under and upto 25 counted games :o)

25. Agosto 2004, 15:09:19

OK LOL Thanx Steve.

Asunto: Sorry if this has been asked and answered many times but:

Guideline #1

Each individual who plays on BrainKing is asked to use one, and only one, BrainKing account.

Reasoning:

We have a rating system on BrainKing which is used to estimate a player's strength in a particular game. Creating multiple accounts just to "lose" to one of your other accounts for the purpose of "boosting" a rating is not sporting, and will not be tolerated.

Does this mean that it's OK to have multiple accounts as long as you are not using them to play against each other? Fencer? I mean, what if someone creates another account not to cheat, but just to have another account? :)

26. Agosto 2004, 08:51:45

No, you should not have multiple accounts for any reason without an explicit permission.

26. Agosto 2004, 09:43:47

Asunto: is there anything wrong with Lilac Fairy???

look at this :(

I might add that BerniceC will not be renewing her membership because of various anomilies. I would ask that all those opponents please get their butt into gear and play their games with me HEHEHEHEHE....I dont really want to resign games but will If I have to :(
thanks:)

Well look what's happened to her. Longjohns stalking and threatening her. I'll miss her but for her safety that's what I'd do

There is too much bickering on this game site - We need to go back and do some more fun stuff.

Hey harley - any chance of starting back up the interviews of people? I've always found those to be interesting, and I'll even volunteer to be a victom if you need one! :-)

Its up to Fencer! I'd like to do them again, they were great fun and a lot of people liked them, but they did create a lot of work to put them on the BK.info site. What do you think, Fencer?

26. Agosto 2004, 16:58:48

coan.net

He should hire someone to take care of the .info site - I'll do it cheaply, just a few extra "rigged" Dice in my gammon games a month will be fine!

(NOTE: For the people who can't tell, the part about rigged dice is just a joke! *wink* *wink*)

26. Agosto 2004, 17:30:35

Oh yes, yes. Sure. I still have Kevin's answers, waiting to be elaborated :-)

Well, LJ and QWERTY girl are the same person so he is using two accounts. I thought you could tell by the ISP or something.

26. Agosto 2004, 18:45:38

I don't like to see such accusations on public boards, especially without irreversible proofs. Please use info@brainking.com for this kind of, uh, reports.

26. Agosto 2004, 20:45:46

BuilderQ

Fencer, could you look at http://brainking.com/game/ShowGame?g=435602? In this game of Screen Chess, my opponent was missing a pawn from the start (though we didn't notice it at first). Could something be done to correct this?

26. Agosto 2004, 21:06:40

Is it better now?
