trohat: Thank you Trohat!
I tried the second link and it works beautifully!

Some time ago I think someone mentioned a link(?) to go to in order to translate a conversation - I've looked through BK and on the net but have trouble finding one that helps me.... one of my opponents is having a one-sided conversation with me since I don't speak Czech.... could someone help me please? Thanks!

pauloaguia: Thank you!

I have my choice set to "move and go to next online player" - but of course what happens is that while it does do that, it goes to the player whose game has the shortest time left, which means that other players who are also online get "ignored". Is there a setting I can use so that no matter what the time left on the game, all online players get the pleasure of playing with me in turn? I guess what I mean is that I want to just go down the list .... I looked at all the options in the settings and there doesn't seem to be one for that...

Rose: Thanks Rose, I'll try that!

I just tried that and it worked - will it work again from now on?

Fencer: I looked all over the settings options but I can't find "game message list".... do I need new glasses?

Is it something I said, or is anyone else having their messages disappear in the games?

Bernice: I got 774 DL and 15 UL - from Midwest, USA

srnity: Yes, I have cable and that is not the problem...

beach: I agree with you, the fun part has become scarce - it's become a relief to go to another site to make my moves there.....

Sometimes I wish we could have a twin site for BK - without all the bells and whistles, just a site where you play the games. It seems that every time improvements are made, it takes the site several days, at minimum, to recover. For the last week, again, it's been so slow - the pages load in pieces, it takes forever to connect and again there are the darn white pages - "Try again later"...... Of course there will be times when there will be some problems - but this is getting so frustrating. Oh, I know, I'm not supposed to say anything about it anymore, but sorry, I consider it my right as a paying member to bring this up... again...... especially since plenty of other players are experiencing the same thing..... again....

Binabik: Oh glory be, it's fixed, thanks again! My mouse broke, and I'm using the touch pad now and I frequently click on things I didn't intend to click on.....

Thank you all, I'll get right on it!

I've tried to find it using the search function on this board, but was unsuccessful...
I somehow messed up the way the games appear on my game list. I want the first games on the list to be the ones with the least time left. I think I may have clicked on the "games" title, with the little green arrow next to it, by accident. When I clicked it on again, it didn't correct the problem. I went to "settings" and changed the choice from ascending to descending and back again, and again clicking on the "games" title on the game list. Nothing seems to work the way I hoped... can someone help me please? Thanks!

coan.net: Thank you, I'm keeping my eye on it, just because I'm curious..... :+)

gambler104: Hmmm, doesn't make sense to me...

Could someone tell me why this game keeps on renewing after the time runs out? This has been happening all week and this player is not using auto-vacation days, nor regular vacation.....
Backgammon (Alfo vs. Binabik)

Sigh, it's been over a week I think, and it's been very frustrating - uncountable "unable to connect" messages, pages take forever to load, etc. The last time this happened we had to ride it out, but it's getting very aggravating.

BIG BAD WOLF: Someone mentioned a while ago to have a separate board for new game requests. That sounds good to me, as it would (perhaps....) eliminate duplicate and triplicate requests, and we could also see (perhaps...) where on the list our requests are, if they are on the list at all, like Boggle......

"Snoopy": OMG, thanks for the warning!

TarantinoFan: You can't make that move because if you do, you will not be able to use the 4 for the other piece. You have to use both dice if you can... So, the game forces you to move one piece first 2 spaces, and then 4 spaces, in this case from space 13 to 11, and then from 11 to 7.

mybirthdaysoon: Yes, I noticed the same - it often happened after a new game was added, but it never lasted this long.

mybirthdaysoon: good grief, now when I click on a move, I get a blank page, and can't go anywhere. I have to log off and try again, that's happened a few times today.

alexSandra: I've been having problems like that for almost 2 weeks I think. Very slow to move, getting the "unable to connect" message daily. It's happening to folks in the US and Europe.

Jason: Thanks again Jason, I'll see if I can figure out if that's what I did

I just checked, and you're right, that's exactly what I did.... thanks so much, I'm so relieved that this time it's not my brain at fault.....

Jason: Thanks Jason - but exactly how would I have done that?

Could anyone enlighten me as to why, suddenly, the order of my gamelist is out of order? It used to be that the game with the least amount of time remaining was at the top, and now there's no order at all. I checked my settings (which I did not change) and it's still set for the way I had it. Is this another Firefox annoyance perhaps?

I archived my messages, but they are still all there in the inbox... I thought they weren't supposed to show up there once they were archived?

Could someone please explain how one is supposed to finish these games on time when the opponent lives in Europe or Asia? We rarely play at the same time....

BIG BAD WOLF: Okay, I think I understand how it will work, but how will this effect the games with European players? We are rarely on at the same time - how can those games go faster and/or be finished within the required time? Will they be separated by time zone in tourneys like that?

I use the "move and go to next player on line" option, but it seems that the same player always returns first on the list even though other players are on line too. Is there a way to play with everyone in turn who's on line?

nobleheart: Hehehehe, but where are her arrows?

Hi Fencer,

Harley and I discussed the need for improvement of the Amazons game: could you please add bows for the arrows, horses for the kings and sound effects of arrows flying and horses whinnying? Thank you..... :)
After that, the addition of concession stands, clowns and ladies who give their love tokens to their favorite king....
