beach: Thank you.

ketchuplover:

Smiler.:  Merry Christmas

Smiler.: +1

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.

Carpe Diem: Yes, I agree, in this case the opponent should give up. It's fair play.

Clandestine 1:Wild! And it's made even stranger by the fact that auto-pass is on, so it's not like your opponent would even have the opportunity for some impossible "magic move". If Fencer isn't able to resolve in a reasonable amount of time, hopefully your opponent would agree to resign since it was almost certain they were going to lose before the glitch.

Clandestine 1: Incredible !

Clandestine 1: nice one. Didn't know you can hit 9 pieces at once and make them disappear...

Here’s a bug I have never seen before. 

The system is sometimes odd.
For example, I can access to my mailbox only from the main page. It's impossible for me from another page, even by clicking on "mailbox" on the left. It's strange. Fortunately, it's not very annoying.

Aganju:  I had that happen to be before  too,  it is caused by one of your games having a problem, once  your opponent plays your games show up again,  I couldn' figure out which game it was on mine becaue I play alot of games, but once that game ends the problem solves itself.  Fencer helped me with that a few months ago.   You can see your number of games but on your page to play the games it doesn't show up.  Hope this helps

Aganju: I see on your home page 139 current games

Is it me or is BK broken? I don't get a list of my games anymore, page is mostly empty

beach: Thank you for confirming that. I did know.

Smiler.:  you cannot use brains for anything

Aganju: I have not used any brains for games for a long time. But I thought you can't use brains to buy memberships.

Smiler.: i think it was always there, but it appears only if you have enough brains to buy anything. Did you just cross the threshold?

A new part added to profiles about using Brains for membership.

rod03801: I agree it only happens briefly, but it is happening frequently now.

Smiler.: I got that yesterday or the day before. But it was fine in less than a minute.

BrainKing is currently being restarted or upgraded. Please try to reload this page in 1 minute. We apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you.

Smiler.: not in Australia it doesnt well where I am it doesnt.

Smiler.: it usually comes back live within a couple of minutes.

Bernice: But it has happened four times in the last few weeks so I can't see him doing an upgrade that many times in such a short time.
The site starts to go slow, and the page goes strange and then cuts off with that message.
However, it is only for short time..
I just wondered if was happening to others

Smiler.: i would say that Fencer is doing upgrade to the site, but if the sight goes down he usually lets everyone know

This has happened to me four times in the last few weeks. Have others have the same thing?

I was holding my breath that it comes back up... puh.

Happy Easter to all

beach: That is good news.

beach: It’s odd. You have amazing powers.

Mélusine:  dont know what I did but they are back spooky

I have sent a message to fencer, I have screwed something up but I dont know what  now I cannot play as it shows no games on main page it is just blank and I dont know how to get it back,  I have a hard time even getting to this board as it doesnt show on my screen now either   guess I will just have to wait for maybe fencer to help me I sent him a message

beach: Oh ! This never happened to me. I don't know how to help you.
Can you go to the settings ?

Mélusine: I have messed something up I have lost the right side of board where it shows fellowships etc  on main page where the games should be to play it is blank I have messed something up but I do not know what

beach: No problems for me.

does anyone have the same problem,   when I log in my games have disappeared I am unable to play

Mélusine: lol

BadBoy7: Ah yes, I didn't think about this situation. You should wear a helmet just in case...

Mélusine: lol yea especially when u fly upside down lol

Mélusine:

beach: Good.
Thank you for setting up so many tournaments this is appreciated by me.

Thom27: Why should Fencer have to consider putting the prices down? Has he increased them much?

Bernice: Not all people using this site bother with the discussion boards. From what I have seen and read in some boards in the past there was a lot of bickering going on. That might be your cup of tea but it not for some. Some people only play the games and have no interest in the discussion boards. I would not want to use up an hour of my time reading the discussion boards. I would rather play all my games as much as can in the time I have spare..
Fencer has other commitments and this site is not number one anymore and he had the decency to tell us that. However he still does come onto the site every now and again and plays some games. He also does regular updates and informs us when that is taking place. So the site has not 'deteriorated'. This site still functions well.

I'd not say "deteriorated", but the best days clearly have passed.
Maybe Fencer could consider to lower the membership prices?

Smiler.: OK back in the earlier years there were thousands playing each day and only a minimal of these are now playing...Fencer used to be on here every day talking to us and making us all feel welcome...Now there isnt a hidenor heair of him to be seen. you have only been here for a couple of years, Ive been here for about 25 years so you have no idea what it was like back in the day...It might still be the best but it isnt a smidgeon of what it used to be. and as one of the old timers on here said in another group...it used to take just about all day to read everything and play the games now it only takes about an hour.

Smiler.:  I agree
