beach: These complaints keep going around for some weeks now, and I understand that it is a real nuisance (I left another site because of it).
But - I had no issues all day. Of course I wasn't playing every single minute, but whenever I tried, it worked well (and I tried often).
I think it is something in the internet's structure like DNS or whatever magic failing that affects large parts of the world intermittently, but the site itself _is working_ fine, believe it or not.

appears to be working once again at 8PM eastern standard time...

Bernice: Bernice its been crap for me for 2 days,   today it took me 2 hours to make 20 moves nothing but white pages, and page cannot be displayed, I can tell a lot of people are having the same problem all the people who I regularly play and they move fast haven't move either, we are all over the world and all of us have different providers

Bernice: oh, I'm sorry your post getting deleted... i only confirmed to crosseyed post that i'm having the same problem while loading the brainking pages. but i'm not a web administrato, which means i don't know if it has to be a local problem or not. off course i use to restart the browser and deactivate and reactivate my wireless connection to be sure it isn't a local problem. but if this actions don't work i can imagine the brainking server is slow, as all other web pages worked well to me... but again, i have no clue, i'm not a web administrator... and thanks Bernice for the private PM, that I actually didn't understand so far, but maybe it's because of my less english knowledge...

gremlins

having the same problem today, very long waiting time for each couple of moves. all other sites work very well...

This time I had it too, both on fixed connection and Android on cell phone.

wht doesn't someone run this site that has an interest in it and cares. this stupid white page crap is getting very old !!!!! It almost went a week before being fixed last time...and that wasn't so long ago if you all remember!!!!

I'm glad it's not just me. I keep getting kicked off the site

beach: So it cannot be our internet providers it has to be this site.

not working for me either mostly white pages or page cannot be displayed has been like that since last night super slow, took me 30 minutes to just log in

crosseyed: Almost as bad..slower than Hogans goat.

I have not been able to get into this site for most of the day. I have just been able to get in and keep getting the white page. Is anyone else getting the same as me?

thechosen0ne: Just one more thing, autopass only works if both players have it set to on.

thechosen0ne: that would be automove, which we dont have on brainking ... we only have autopass :)

Roberto Silva:
Thanks. That clears things up. The same thing should happen when there is only one possible move, in which case the move would be made automatically.

Roberto Silva: yeah, what he said.

thechosen0ne: Some games (like backgammon), there are positions when a player can't make a move and needs to "pass". If autopass is turned off, you have to enter the game and make a "pass" move, then your opponent makes the next move. If autopass is turned on, the system passes automatically and your opponent makes the next move.

Heluvagi:
Could you please clarify? When would I not be able to make a move? Is this during one game or in the scope of a tournament?

thechosen0ne: it means if you can´t make a move, your opponent goes straight to his next move without you getting any notification. it saves time.

What is autopass in tournaments and what does it do?

Iamon lyme: I agree with you.

crosseyed: Yes, and especially today. I'm constantly trying to trick the gremlin who is tricking me. If reloading doesn't work I have a few bk pages on my favorites list, so I can leave and come back. This seems to work, but today I'm having to do it more than usual. Fencer said it has nothing to do with this site, but with the various server stations our signals travel through. I don't believe that, I say it's gremlins who are doing it.

Has anyone else been getting the white page and noticed how slow the site has been for a few days?

Pedro Martínez: hi there :)....you have been terribly quiet for a long while....how are you?
Still waiting for you to visit LOL

El Cid: you're correct. it's wrong in section two too

Pedro Martínez: is it me, or in section 2 the s-b score is also wrong (unless its counting with the doubling score within each match, but i doubt it)

pedestrian:

Oh yeah. you should get on the the bossman about that!...

Get some free brains!

Pedro Martínez: Yes, that looks worrying. Round 2 started quite recently, 20. September 2012. And the site clearly got the Sonneborn-Berger score wrong.

Heluvagi: Speaking of that tournament, I would like to know how it is possible that milionovej kluk made it to the second round, whereas cardinal and I didn't.

OMG! I was looking through the running tournaments, and I just found a backgammon tournament that's been running for 8 years. It has 7 point matches with the doubling cube. Just thought I'd share.

thechosen0ne: It is always the server time - GMT+01:00 (or 02:00 when daylight saving time is active).

Aganju:
I guess that answers my question! It just wasn't clear how it worked and I thought my vacation days were being used up on those days regardless. What time zone counts as those days? Your local time, the time you specified, or Brainking time?

thechosen0ne: I don't understand your question?
You cannot time out during your weekend days, but of course your time does count down. Once it reaches 0 (or 0 to -9 exactly), the time demon gives you a free hour, which is like vacation, but doesn't use any.
So what did you mean??

thechosen0ne: I think you'll find it was an added option because a lot of people were taking the total time before they moved. If you're timing out then it is working for the people who wish to play fast games.

What exactly is the point of weekend days if my time can still go down to <1 hour on games without a green or red dot, meaning I can still time out!? I set my weekend days to Monday and Wednesday.

rod03801: lol I did that about three times

chessmate.home: but you can just change your name in this account. That might do it?

chessmate.home: An account can't be deleted, as there are games attached to the account, of course. (and all games can be looked back at, etc.). The best thing to do is just make the new account and stop using this one.

hi, i want delete my account and create another one, it is possible?

Aganju: thank you... now I send a game to you... to play 1 or 2 games..thanks...

ustica tnp:
a) it has to be activated when the tournament is created (otherwise it will not be used)
b) the player needs to activate it in his settings (check under Settings/GameFilter/Autopass which is brainking.com/en/settings?p=3&sup=2 )

hi. how player uses autopass.. in backgammon?

ketchuplover: It is esay to click on languages by mistake. Perhaps that is what happened with you.

I saw non-english languages on the boards. I haven't noticed it before now.

And this one too from 2007 Spring Fling Ludo Tournament 2007

Whats up with this tournament from 2007?
Spring Fling 2007

MadMonkey: hmmm that didnt work then :(

*ph:2019:15600*

Aganju: thank you :)
