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

Aganju: In Chrome, you can even just highlight with your mouse and right click, and right in the menu, it offers to translate, rather than go to Google Translate. (It pops up in small window at the top right of the screen)

ann67: Send a message to : Fencer

Bernice: Won't blocking him work?

Algis9: Please post tournament links on the Tournaments discussion board, instead of this board. https://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=22
Thanks so much!!

 MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!  

Smiler.: That person posted yesterday or the day before. They were moderated, of course. But that doesn't always keep it off of the Discussion board main page. It should be gone now

seldom: GOT it. So you're saying only people who do and say what YOU like, should be allowed to play on this site. GOT it. And how would you know who are soldiers and who are not? AND all they would have to do is choose a different country. That's nuts, sorry.

Mélusine: Agree 100%. It would be ridiculous to ban Russian players from this site.

MelissaMarie: If it is still allowed, you should message Fencer personally. It might not be automatic anymore, if it is still allowed.

Tutagil: Maybe it takes longer if it was purchased with "Brains" ? I wasn't even sure that was still even an acceptable way to pay for membership. There are rumors of people who cheat to get more "brains", but I don't know exactly how that happens.

Bernice: I believe he is saying he bought Black Rook on the evening of Oct 19, and he is wondering when he willl see evidence of this transaction

Bernice: I had forgotten that filter even existed. So I'm old too, I guess.

Bernice: Beach's advice is the best place to start, That is probably the issue.
I hope it works for you.

Edited to add : Also, once on the Game Filter, you will want to click on "Player Invitations" tab to show your games that others can invite you to.

Tuesday: Maybe it has to do with the browser your phone is using, or maybe they don't work on mobile, in general? I never play on my phone, so I can't be that helpful. lol.

Tuesday: Are they pawns? I know pawns can't use smileys. And I THINK I remember that if they do, they show up as just the numbers. It's been a while, so I might be wrong about that. I'm just throwing it out there as a possibility.

Fencer: That's pretty cool! It would be neat if every game had an "instant replay".

Bernice: You brought it up on a public discussion board, which invites comments from the public. But, yes, that being said, it would be appropriate to end the topic at this point.

Bernice: On a gamesite that you can't remember? What does this have to do with Brainking then?

P-G:
When I search "Access Code" on this board, I find that it seems to have something to do with the brainking app. That's all I found about it. It's been about 10 years since it was last mentioned.

Right under the "Access Code" of your profile, it says : "Access code is your unique identification string (generated by BrainKing). If you are using third party products to access BrainKing, you might be asked for this code to confirm your identity. This is NOT your BrainKing password, so there is no risk of accessing your private data if you provide this code to external programs.
(*) - invisible to other players"

Bernice:According to the tournament, you did get a point for it. It shows you won both games against that person in it. The International Friendship Club (12. October 2020, 03:31:19)

Mousetrap: If you are clicking on the "Add New Item" that is above the smiley setting section, that is the wrong one. That is for adding items to that "context menu" thing.

Adding smileys works fine for me right now.

When I click on the smiley I want to add, you do NOT see it above there where it shows the ones you've already picked in the past. (Or maybe you do if you only have a couple. I'm not sure)
I choose whatever smiley I want to add, and then I click Save and Finish, below that.

Then when I'm in a message and I click that smiley icon, I do definitely see the new smiley added to my list.

Since you say nothing happens at all, the only thing I could think of is that you clicked "Add New Item" above it. I did that earlier by mistake when I was testing it out. Then I noticed that it added a new line above saying "New link".

I just know that it seems to be fine for me, and I'm no one special. LOL

Mousetrap: Do you mean the sort of "frequently used" smileys? (That you get by clicking the smiley beside the word "Message")

If so, I was able to add one. I clicked "Change Smileys"
It takes you "Javascript" tab of your settings.
Scroll down and click "Add Smileys"
Then you see some lines of all the smileys that you don't yet have in your "frequently used" ones.
Click on smileys you want to add
Click Save and Finish.

If that's not what you meant, then I'm sorry.

Bobes: That changed quite a while ago. I'm sorry, but I don't remember exactly when. (Or why)

The Col: I am pretty sure all vacation is "automatic" now for paying members. (So no need to "set" vacation days).
But maybe you should make sure "automatic" is turned on, just in case? It's been years since I've used mine, too.

To others : This board was never intended to be for "chat". Since the boards are less busy than they used to be, we have been more lenient about that. But could you please now take the friendly chat to either the General Chat discussion board, or the. Members Only discussion board
Thanks so much. And Happy New Year.

Bernice: Thankfully we do have block though. Unfortunately it is sometimes needed.

MagnumIR:

This would be a better board to post this : http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=54
Thanks!

Aganju: Exactly.
YES, thank you Fencer.

Universal Eyes: I hope that gets people to play the poker tables again. I haven't played them in a really long time, myself.

Universal Eyes: You should mention which time zone.....

Fencer:

Carnie:
No, your opponent was a pawn. Took your King and promoted to a Rook.
Just use the move arrows to go back 1 move.

General Chat, Like "Hello"s, really SHOULD be on the General Chat board not this one. Thanks for understanding.

speachless: I don't know if you've ever seen this page : http://brainking.com/en/PhotoGallery but there used to be get togethers in Fencer's area. There are no recent pictures, but I guess that doesn't mean that they don't still happen.

heavenrose: Actually he does respond to people. He responds to me any time I've contacted him. (Though I don't need to very often).
So you can't say he "never" does. He probably doesn't reply to frivolous messages though.

Perhaps he hasn't been on since Doris wrote to him. Or at least not long enough to do anything about it.

Several of the most argumentative posts are gone. Some responses to them that don't make sense now with those other ones gone are deleted too.

There will NOT be personal bickering on this board. As was stated on the Fellowship board earlier.

And yes, General Chat should PLEASE try to be kept to "General Chat" board. It's certainly not a big emergency, but there is no reason why general conversation can't go there.

Thank you for understanding

Marshmud:
Hate me?! WOW. Guess it's those people who can't accept someone doing their job. I would like to think if those "haters' knew me on a more personal level, they might realize I'm not a monster.

Anyway, good thing I don't let something like that bother me. I don't know the people personally who hate me either. Though I also don't "hate" anyone here. There may have been a couple over the years though. lol. but they seem to be long gone. And I probably didn't "hate" them either. "Strongly annoyed" maybe. And I possibly thought they were immature *****s. But there's plenty of those in the world anyway, not just here.

I DO love this site very much.
Have a good weekend

Heavenrose: There actually is a board especially for birthday wishes. http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=51

Further posts arguing will be deleted and probably banned. That's enough. Thank you

Bernice: Too bad no specials again. I only have a couple more "colors" left to get my black rook. Guess That'll never happen at this point.

SL-Mark: AHH I get it. I'm slow sometimes.

ketchuplover: Why would you care if it stays or leaves? If you DO care, the easiest is for yourself to stay or leave. No?

I've been here since March 3, 2003 - and I too will be here right until the end. Hopefully that's a long time from now!

Two peoples' posts are hidden for now, until I have a while to go through and get rid of the ones that need to be gotten rid of. Then both parties will be unhidden.

After that, if the arguing continues, either or both parties will be banned from posting to this board.

This does mean that some of the "side posts" will be deleted as well. This is not any judgement on your reaction to the inappropriate bickering.

Stop it please

The bickering posts have been removed. Please let's get this board back on topic. Thank you!

Hrqls: Yes, I am/was close to finishing that achievement as well. I was planning on buying another year if the promotion came up. I still have plenty of time on my current membership though. It sort of makes that achievement unachievable if he doesn't bring that back...

DeaD man WalkiN:

From the rules : http://brainking.com/en/GameRules?tp=101&fwa=ShowGame!g=7280461

"The game ends when all frogs of one player are revealed on the board (no matter if they were shot or guessed). The other player gets a bonus of 2 points and 1 point for each own frog which was not found by the opponent."

I hope all Brainking players have an awesome 2016
