We used to have an e-mail verification when BrainKing had been launched a year ago. However, lots of people didn't want how to use it and my mailbox was full of e-mails like "help, what should I do with that activation code?".
So I'd decided to remove it.

Anyone can set up duff email accounts for a day or so any way??

20. Marraskuu 2003, 11:39:58

Of course.

Indeed - but it's less comfortable.
Onto that not all providers allow it.

Anyway I did not mean a confirmation code.
E.g. try to send an email from hotmail to
a non-existing address - it won't work.

On FICS, the FIDE chess server, your approval
is even bound to the home address given by your ISP.
They won't accept anonymous email services like yahoo.

www.web.de, one of the winning-award mail-services
sends your confirmation code with snail-mail, serious.

Otsikko: Re: Aragon
I know of a dozen or so (not hotmail or yahoo) that will work just fine. And the details to set up an accout??

Mr Bloggs
Any Street
Any Where
Any Town

WILL WORK, then once you activate just leave the account, or use it time and time again, it is NOT bound to anyting or hooked to the back of an ISP.

We stopped sending email confirmation codes out becuase of this very problem, now we use Phone or Fax numbers that have been checked with Telephone Company first, expensive maybe, but works. Im not suugesting for one second that BK use this method, Fencer would loose a fortune, but email verification just WONT work. (IMHO)

Otsikko: Re: Another Idea
I know this was posted a couple of days ago..yet I just read it.Grenv had the Idea of reducing to the moves per day, The reason I was happy coming to this gamesite was because I could move as much as I wanted. IYT styfled me on this now this site might do it. I'm hoping you all don't take this suggestion?

Otsikko: Re: Another Idea
So to be clear I don't support restricting moves unless it is helpful in keeping the site from going down. I would only support it as a temporary measure. I notice you have only 20 games running, whereas I've seen some players with 400+ concurrent games, which basically means they must have moves to make no matter when they log in. While this is fine in theory, if it puts a strain on the server I would be in favor of limiting the number of moves.

iyt limits non-paying players to 25. This is miniscule and an attempt to get those players to pay, not to help performance.

21. Marraskuu 2003, 18:13:13
coan.net 
I wouls support limits, if the limites were only to stop (or slow down) people who might be taking advantage.

For example, limit a pawn to 100 moves per day. Most pawn will not even hit that limit, but only be hit by the ones who take a lot from the site.

22. Marraskuu 2003, 20:01:04

paying members shouldnt be restricted in the anount of moves a day , i do suggest that there could be a maximun abount of games though maybe 500 or there abouts , i wouldnt like to be limited on moves though

22. Marraskuu 2003, 20:43:01
Fencer 
No one will be restricted in the amount of moves a day.

Thanks Fencer! That is one of the many awesome things about this site!

Thanx from me too Fencer

i wish i had time to play 50 games, let alone 500, lol. I guess I'll retire one day and then try for triple figures. :)

Would be a "Brainking BKR" a good idea for the new Brainking version?
It could be the average of all single BKR`s.
Btw I don`t like the word "Enemylist", better : "Ignorelist".

What would be the point of a general rating? The main point of ratings is to get a rough idea as to whether or not a prospective opponent is suited to one's own level and as such is game specific.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:05:50
Caissus 
Otsikko: Re:
It is right,Ughaibu I thought as an additional feature,as average of all played games.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:10:06
taurec 
Otsikko: it would still be interesting
to see an over-all chess-rating covering all normal variations,
(i.e. no screen/dark/anti) or similar for backgammon and pente as well.

Even a special Brainking Decathlon of selected games is imaginable.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:10:14

I dont exactly object to the idea but it might cause ratings to be taken over seriously and considered competitively. There are two possible negative effects of such a tendency, first it could encourage various members to indulge in forms of rating manipulation, second it could discourage members from experimenting with "new" games for fear that poor results would adversely effect their general rating.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:13:01
harley 
I'm not sure I'd like that very much, Caissus.

I have appalling ratings in some games, and I still continue to play them because I enjoy the game. But if I felt that my low rating was dragging down the whole of BrainKing I wouldn't enjoy play as much. And I'm sure the high rated players would feel quite frustrated at people like me holding down their favourite game rating!

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:16:18
taurec 
Otsikko: ratings
may still be suspended for private games if wished so.
Should be no obstacle, thus - the ten games for a decathlon could
be determined by a poll and even promoted by annual price tourneys, then.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:21:00
ughaibu 
Taurec: pentathlons, decathlons and the like sould a good idea. I think it would be fun to have tournaments that change game for qualifiers as they progress.

Harley: I think you've missunderstood. The idea is an average rating calculated by the mean of all a players ratings. I think the average of all player's ratings over one game should be about the same regardless of the range, so lower rated players are needed to give other players high ratings.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:29:18
Caissus 
Otsikko: Re: ratings
Personnally I think there are too many single BKR`s. Perhaps would it makes sense to summarize BKR`s in groups for instance all Halma games,all Checkers,all Gammons ? In Chess I would like to see three groups: regular chess, chessvariations with regular board and set, and variants with bigger boards and additional pieces.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:33:51
harley 
Ah I see, I thought the idea was an overall, all players rating :o)

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:45:56
taurec 
Otsikko: My idea would be as following
there will be a poll which games to select for a period of one ear.
then a scpecial decathlon rating is calculated cumulating in one
big tournament at the end of the period - not changing games,
but for each of the ten gametypes a signup will be required.
5er groups presumed, still to handle - 40 games. 2 days reflection time.
to make such a tournament attractive, brainking sponsors a prize.
onto that the person with the highest rating after a period will
be counted and credited as decathlon-season winner. :-)

23. Marraskuu 2003, 11:53:34
taurec 
Otsikko: oh yet to clarify
of the selected games two ratings will be recorded then -
for every player - her/his 'established' ratings and the decathlon-game ratings.
they should start fixed at the beginning of a season at 1350.
e.g. if chess belongs to them, each chess game has to be calculated for
both tpes of ratings separately to avoid useamly advantage for specialists.

Otsikko: Decathalon Ratings
The only games which should contribute to a decathalon rating would be games against other decathaletes.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 18:43:53
rod03801 
I really like taurec's idea of a decathalon!

23. Marraskuu 2003, 23:18:17
grenv 
Combined ratings doesn't make much sense to me, since the games are different. Kind of like comparing Tiger Woods with Andre Agassi by combining the tennis and golf ratings?

I do like the idea of a multigame tournament though. It seems to me that you would need to play each rival in each game to make it fair.

23. Marraskuu 2003, 23:25:02

Why not revive the idea of a Ladder running along with the BKR?

23. Marraskuu 2003, 23:25:51

Be Patient. It is coming. And besides, your games (and everyone else's) seem to be progressing fine without it, so it doesn't seem overly urgent.

Otsikko: Download of games
A pgn-file can contain several games.Perhaps it can be possible in the new Brainking version to download not only one game in pgn-format,but also a bundle of games, for instance all games of a tournement,some games of one player or some games of a special period?

25. Marraskuu 2003, 21:37:06

Otsikko: date of birth in english
Hi,
On "My Profile", I see
Date of Birth (*): 22. b?ezen 1971

I wonder if b?ezen could be "march" in Czech...

Kind regards :-)

Mine is like that also - it happen after the "big crash" and the restore.

I never said anything since it is a field that is not seen by anyone else. :-)

Heck, you are right. There seems to be a Czech locale [after the re-installation]. I'll fix it ASAP :-)

are we going to get a better notes feature with the 2.0 version for in game tactics, i currently don't use the feature as when i did i forgot which games i had planned out to that extent but if the notes were above the board above/below the oppositions converstaion place it would, i think, add to the effectiveness and would be a positive revision.

i know this was mentioned some time back but no decision seemed to arise.

27. Marraskuu 2003, 20:17:55
Eriisa 
breathe grant, breathe! lol

I agree though. I tried to use the notes feature a couple of times. But I don't see what I wrote with the current layout. Its too far down the page.

27. Marraskuu 2003, 22:06:40
rod03801 
I agree with Grant. The game notes are useless to me down below. I don't often scroll down that far, so wouldn't see a reminder I hoped to see.

27. Marraskuu 2003, 23:49:25
Pafl 
Agree. And to make it absolutely perfect, there could be the date the note was inserted. I sometimes happen to think the old notes are up to date and they confuse me - and I am only a pawn with 20 games. What if I was an 80-game-rook, then ?
Not a key feature - just for the comfort :-).

28. Marraskuu 2003, 01:43:01
Backoff 
I agree. BTW pafl, I'm down to only 200 games. after the server crash, I had over 400 lol

28. Marraskuu 2003, 04:02:27
Eriisa 
I'm down to 83, guess its time to start adding tourneys. LOL

28. Marraskuu 2003, 13:30:33

lol, how many games at once is the record ?

28. Marraskuu 2003, 19:40:38
