Guess that debate draws to a close...

I think unrated WITHOUT any completed games, is 1300. But if you are unrated, but have completed 3 games and won them all, your rating is even higher, though not shown. I only say this because when I signed up for a Tank Battle tournament, I was unrated, but I was at the top of my section, as though I had a high BKR. ( I got lucky, and am actually not that good at Tank Battle !!! :-D )

Otsikko: Draws
I hear all the time of a ratings drop with a draw but I have never heard anyone say they gained any rating points from a draw. I had draws with much higher rated players and they did drop..but I didn't gain. Oh well.

16. Joulukuu 2003, 21:19:10
coan.net 
Oh... I guess 1300, not 1500. :-)

16. Joulukuu 2003, 21:18:40
coan.net 
I think unrated are actually rated 1500 (but just shows unrated at first.)

Plus is also has to do with how many games a person has played also. The more games that have been played, the less the rating will go up and down (since it is more established).

16. Joulukuu 2003, 21:17:12

From the FAQ page...

"Each player has a BKR although it is not displayed. Players start with BKR = 1300 and the BKR is not shown until he/she finishes at least 4 rated games"

So if your rating was a lot higher than that, Steve, a draw would make your rating drop quite a lot.

16. Joulukuu 2003, 20:59:00
Stevie 
my draw was against an unrated, so would have thought it would not be too big a drop

16. Joulukuu 2003, 20:57:44

LOL.. we all pretty much posted at the same time and said the same thing... :-)

16. Joulukuu 2003, 20:55:53
rod03801 
Logically, it seems it should effect it, unless both players are pretty equally rated... Obviously it shouldn't have as much effect as a win or loss. Clearly if a 1200 rated player achieves a draw with a 2400 rated player, their 1200 bkr should go up at least a little.
As other people have pointed out in the past, in many cases it is probably such a small change that it doesnt change the # we see. (as it doesn't go out any decimal points.)

16. Joulukuu 2003, 20:54:07
harley 
If the BKR's are significantly different, a draw will affect both ratings. If the ratings are similar anyway, it will hardly touch them (if at all), which is probably why they appear to change with some draws, and not others.

16. Joulukuu 2003, 20:52:58
coan.net 
As I understand it, draws are suppose to affect ratings. I don't think many usually see it since it affects it less then a win/lose, and if the rating are some-what close to each other, you won't see any change.

But for example you have a player rated 1000, and another player rated 2000 - for the 1000 rated player to not lose and get a draw will get them some points.

I'm not sure of the exact formula, but I was thinking it was posted somewhere.

16. Joulukuu 2003, 20:51:23
Stevie 
I have not had it affect my bkrs until this time (that ive noticed)

16. Joulukuu 2003, 20:45:57
rod03801 
It should affect it! However, I have seen people say that it NEVER affects theirs, and others say it does. I wonder what the "true" answer is...

I've only had 4 draws, so I don't really know if it affected anything..

Otsikko: Re: Draws
i've never spoken up before because i though i was the only one who noticed.. but i've had a draw affect my bkr before... however, i thought it was supposed to....

Otsikko: Draws
I thought draws didnt effect bkr??? I just dropped by around 40 for a draw at Gothic checekers :O(

Otsikko: Vacation Days
So the total is reset to 30 (in the case of a rook) on January 1? Or does it work like other sites where if you use a vacation day on December 15 2003, you will get that particular day back to use again on Dec 15 2004?

15. Joulukuu 2003, 19:52:01

Ummm, thanks, Linda & noholdsbarred! You have the job, noholds, IF I ever become interviewee!! LOL! But theres a whole load of interesting people I'd like to see interviewed before me!

BBW If your sisters computer can't be fixed,webtv would be a cheap alternative.Easy to use,wireless keyboard and remote.She can play lying down if she wants.It is also small enough to be taken to the hospital.I took mine during my stay and wouldn't go without it.My webtv was a lifesaver during my doctor ordered bed rest.I love my webtv....

happy to oblige ... should an intelocutor be required

15. Joulukuu 2003, 18:41:38
Linda J 
Yeah,good idea.Just curious thanks.Not that I would ask any LOL.errr well maybe for you on interview with Harley.j/k

15. Joulukuu 2003, 18:31:28
harley 
No, I think it would be fairer to remove the questions. That way there won't be any chance of people getting on their backs about why they didn't answer 'such a question'.... Does that sound OK?

15. Joulukuu 2003, 18:27:22
Linda J 
LOL Interview with Bumble,Oh this is gonna be good.Harley,if they get questions they'd rather not answer,how does that work? Do they throw them out or leave them in unanswered?

15. Joulukuu 2003, 18:12:44
Rose 
tanks for the info harl!!!
I think I was expecting to see the interview cuz you mentioned the latest one being Bumble.. dont mind me! Carry on! hahahaha

15. Joulukuu 2003, 18:07:28
harley 
Rose, the questions have been sent to Liquid, (he was the one before!) and once he has answered them it will be posted at BrainKing.info - I'll put a link here so people know when. But Liquid is a very busy man and English isn't his first language - plus its quite a long interview :o)

Lamby, glad you're sorted :o)

15. Joulukuu 2003, 17:54:42
Back Soon 
Aaah yeah, its in settings! Thanks Harley, I was looking for the calender bit in my profile & wondered where it had gone! lol
Anyway the days I need are already marked holiday so I dont need to do it afterall! lol

15. Joulukuu 2003, 17:53:04
Rose 
harley when is the interview going to be ready? Not Bumbles but the one you were doing before that one?

15. Joulukuu 2003, 17:47:54
harley 
Lamby, go to settings, and calendar. You can tick off the boxes you want as a holiday. :o)
And don't forget to SAVE the changes!!!!

15. Joulukuu 2003, 17:46:32
Back Soon 
Can someone please help.......my mind has gone blank & I cannot remember how to set my vacation days! lol
Thanks in advance :o)

Otsikko: Interview with.....
Drum roll please..........

Our very own...

BUMBLE!!!!!

I'm sure loads of people have loads of questions for him! Please send them to me with a note saying if your name can be used with the question or not. Ask as many questions as you like, but please remember he is under no obligation to answer them!! LOL! So get writing!! :oD

15. Joulukuu 2003, 17:35:54
Fencer 
Yes, you have 30 days for each year.

15. Joulukuu 2003, 17:20:28
Radiant2008 :-) 
Awwwww , bless you BBW - they must have a certain rule for special needs like these?? Fencer?

Whats wrong with your sister, how can we pray for her?

15. Joulukuu 2003, 17:17:31
coan.net 
Well one of the reasons I'm asking is my sister plays here, and she might be put on bed rest. They planned ahead and put a computer next to the bed, but I guess that computer is not working now - so i'm now watching her games on here (and Dailygammon & Pocket-Monkey). But if I know that she will get more vacation days on January 1st, I'll just stick her on vacation that way I don't have to play any of her games.... (Which I would rather not play unless they are getting ready to time out.)

Ill be at work the christmas week so probably wont need to use vacation days LOL

Otsikko: Re: Vacation Days
good question BBW you got me wondering now as i need to use some over the next few weeks too

15. Joulukuu 2003, 17:01:58
coan.net 
Well if could also be that you get 30 days from when you signed up. (So if you signed up for membership on June 15th, then on June 15th would be the day you vacation days are reset)

As for vacation day roll-over, that is also a good question. :-)

15. Joulukuu 2003, 16:55:40
Radiant2008 :-) 
Otsikko: Re: Vacation Days
LOL BBW.. I wondered that as well.. Perhaps we even get 30 PLUS the days left from the past year??

15. Joulukuu 2003, 16:42:58
coan.net 
Otsikko: Vacation Days
Question for Fencer: Does the number of vacation days reset itself on January 1st?

(So no matter how many vacation days I use now, I'll have 30 on january 1st?)

13. Joulukuu 2003, 11:08:26

Otsikko: Interview with....
No more questions for Liquid please! He has the interview and it will appear on BrainKing.info when he has finished answering the questions, I'll post a link when its there.

The next interviewee is..... to be announced!! I'm just waiting for 100% confirmation then I'll post the name :oD Sorry to keep you in suspense!

11. Joulukuu 2003, 23:20:26

Otsikko: Interview with.... Liquid
I won't be taking any more questions for Liquid in about 24 hours. So if you have anything you would like to know about him, send it to me in the next day before its too late!!! Tomorrow I'll also be posting the name of the next victim... erm, I mean interviewee (just kidding! :oD). So send me your questions for Liquid!!

11. Joulukuu 2003, 09:32:51
Fencer 
Liquid restarted the application server, it should help. I hope so :-)

Yes, there were some problems with a network card or driver. I don't guarantee that they are over but we are doing what we can do.
