Kookaburra: The reason it did not start was it required four teams to start. There are only three teams signed up for the tournament.

I was looking forward to the Russian Checker Team challenge and it didn’t start. It would appear at this site clubs do almost nothing and team challenges almost non existent. Is there any hope for this to improve????? I am looking to leave currently as this doesn’t seem like a very active site.
I am new here.

DeaD man WalkiN: some people simply don't know the rules. Don't get angry; refer them to read the rules, and to stop playing if they don't like them.

Aside from that, I can understand that the doubling cube can be an extremely annoying thing, especially if you don't understand it - your opponent roles a lucky 6-6 and turns the game around, and then has the audacity to double... but that is Backgammon. [this is an explanation, not an excuse!]
He needs to learn to use the cube. And if he cannot lose, he should go play with dolls instead.

DeaD man WalkiN: So its a game using the beating cube? A multi game match? Well you can start by offering a double before you roll your first set of dice.. Still not sure why he is angry?

What is new

A scheduled downtime of BrainKing is planned on Thursday 25th April 2019, 07:30 GMT+02:00 due to a system upgrade.

As far as I am aware this did happen. And you can see previous updates.

I just know you cant manually buy them and since all the cheating with brains all brains for membership is done manually by fencer now.

ughaibu: i don't think 'Handicap' is implemented - you could only have players agree to voluntary make a poor move or move sequence as another way of 'Handicap' for them. There is no way to start with a piece removed.

How do I set up a shogi tournament in which the players each give their opponent a handicap in one of two games?

Sujet: Re: Glitch.

Crosseyed Mary: Modification :
I did a test. It shows only the number of games that friends have on our first page. To see the whole number of games of a friend, we have to modify and go to "opponent" (above the games) and choose the name of this friend.

28. Avril 2019, 01:12:30

Sujet: Re: Glitch.

Crosseyed Mary: For me, it’s the same. In fact, instead of seeing the whole number of games of the friends, it shows only the number of games from the page where we are. It means, for example, that if you have several pages of games, and that you are now on the first page of your games, and that the games of your friends are on the second page, you won’t see any number beside the name of your friends. I don’t know if what I’m saying is clear...

It is just me or is anyone else experiencing the same problem as me?

I can no long see how many games I have with my friends. All I can I see is one game only. Then as soon as I make a move it will show only one game.

I know this not an important issue. But I thought with the down time it might have resolved this glitch.

Sujet: Re:

Marshmud: Yes, a 2 dice Ludo with a 1 or 6 out of base would be GREAT (plus I would think easy to program since the game is already there.)

Scrabble and Words games are always tricky - so many words, versions - of course languages, and then it is the person cheating or just good at word games.

17. Mars 2019, 22:27:05

A quick version of ludo, where two dice are used and can come out of home base with a roll 1 or 6.

Word games like a variant of the game hangman.

I believe the last game project at BK was a form of scrabble that fencer had begun to work on but never completed.

17. Mars 2019, 18:13:17

I have suggested a couple variants to Logik - maybe with 6 or maybe the addition of a couple more colors - as I would think it would be a some-what easy to program as the main Logik game is already working well.
