Mousetrap: *phew* it was the only scenario i could think about as well .. glad nothing weird happened :)

good luck in the games :)

Mousetrap: a piece cant move anymore when the piece is on the opponents first row

do you have a link to the game where it worked differently ?

kleineme: *nod* i read the english text, and even translated it into dutch, but i was still confused :)

were you able to put a new piece in on the next move ?

kleineme: uhm .. i just looked at my old games .. it seems that you can make the move to the opponents 1st row, and in the next turn place a piece back on the board

here is where i did it in my game

kleineme: its been a while since i played the game, but i think as well you should be able to place a piece back.

maybe somone else knows whats going on ?
did you post it in the bug tracker yet ?

Marfitalu: ah! you are right .. the french translation of the gamerules isnt complete yet it seems

the link should be (and will be in the future) : http://brainking.com/fr/GameRules?tp=52

but it still displays in english. i guess the mod of the french discussion board is the translator as well so maybe he knows when its finished

Marfitalu: in the upper right corner of this site you can see a lot of flags .. click on the french flag and the whole site will be displayed in french

maybe this makes it easier for you to read it all :)

as you can probably see i dont mind offramping .. as long as it doesnt intrude in any discussion about the real subject of this board : Jarmo

can anyone find a site with some more information/history/.. about this game ?

have fun! ;)

Pedro Martínez: ah! .. hmm 'decorum' .. i dont know a real english word for it (or it must be 'decorum' .. i wouldnt translate it as 'deftigheid' in this context .. although the dutch author did :)

'decorum' :

• acting according to tradition ?
  
• presenting one self according to what is expected ?
  
• old fashioned ?
  

i am glad i am not a translator .. i would always be lost in such nuances :)

maybe abigailII knows a better translation ?

AbigailII: true :) but not many foreigners know can read the language and especially know the nuances for specific words when translated to another language :)

maybe i should have said i didnt know you are from a country where they speak dutch/belgium/south african :) .. and am positively surprised that you can read (and speak?) dutch :)

AbigailII: thats true ... i didnt know you are dutch :)

all yoru translations of deftigheid are close (imo ;)) ... fashionables and upper-class come closest in the context i am thinking of :) or maybe as 'snobbish' or 'snobby' (is than an english word ? ;))

Pedro Martínez: lol ... thanks .. i will try :)

(the english word for 'deftigheid' is probably 'modesty' ? ... but 'deftigheid' isnt exactly correct in this context .. i dont know which dutch word would be though ;))

hello empty room and missing audience,

i have been apointed as the new mod for this very busy board :)

i justed want to wish you all a lot of fun with the game and any discussions which may ever come from it ;)

have fun!
