O čem je toďten plk: Actively playing

Your rating drops off the charts if you're not active in a game for 6 months (paying) or 1 month (non-paying). It isn't clear to mean what active means. Does it mean you should have finished a game in the past 6/1 month(s)? Or could I just start 10 win match with a 30 day move period, move once a month, and stay on the charts forever, without my rating changing? I hope it's the former.

playBunny: It's the result of removing the max 2700 value. The BKRs were recalculated from the very beginning with this small change.

Fencer: I've found that my backgammon rating has gone up by 34 and more. Is that an expected result of the "clearout"? And, out of curiousity, is there any way for me to find where these extra points came from?

I see:

Extinction Chess
Very original chess variation invented by R. Wayne Schmittberger.

Knight Relay Chess
Very interesting chess variant, invented by Mannis Charosh in 1972.

Grand Chess
Grand Chess (by Christian Freeling) is a chess variant played on 10x10 board.

...yet my name was removed from Gothic Chess.

Why is it no longer there?

O čem je toďten plk: Re: Upgrades

playBunny: I think Fencer can do it a few ways. One will be that your rook membership will start right away, then when that is over, you can have your additional 4 months of Knight.

But if you talk to him, he may go ahead and "covert" your 4 months of knight membership for 2 extra months of rook membership. I'm not 100% sure of this - best to do is just message him and ask.... he will work with you.

23. srpenca 2005, 02:23:44

Fiona

O čem je toďten plk: Re: Upgrades

playBunny: i would think the rook membership starts when the knight expires

23. srpenca 2005, 02:19:05

playBunny

O čem je toďten plk: Upgrades

If a Knight, expiring in four months time, buys or wins a Rook 6-month subscription today, how does it work?

22. srpenca 2005, 22:53:44

O čem je toďten plk: Re:

Chessmaster1000: Just a minor change, no 2700 maximum.

22. srpenca 2005, 22:53:16

Chessmaster1000

And what about this recalculation? Does the system of calculation of the BKR will be changed dramatically or just minor changes......?

22. srpenca 2005, 22:39:21

O čem je toďten plk: Re:

Nuno Miguel: Nothing will disappear. Some positions will be changed, though, because many inactive players will disappear from the charts.

22. srpenca 2005, 22:33:03

on main page we have our rated game types and the positions. this will disappear after wednesday or just the ranking on the charts?
thanks

Clay, you mean to see all the baords at once? After you clicked on 'discussion boards' you can click on 'expand all boards' and that will show you every public discussion board on the site.

22. srpenca 2005, 14:08:04

Could we have a link for game site boards? Where one could just click on the link and see the various discussion boards. Perhaps it would be identical to the "Discussion boards" link.

DUMB QUESTION: Is there an easy way now to see such a list or have I just not found it yet?

Fencer: i think a paying member should remain on the active list until after they've been a pawn for 30 days, as a courtesy for being a paying member! there can't be that many paying members that haven't been on in a while. jmo
