Carnie: If you're playing robtoo, the game is almost certainly unrated anyway, so even if you resign it's not gonna cost you any rating points.

Carnie: you have some contradicting asumptions here...

You talk about the end of brainking - there is no defined end, only in the mind of some fatalists. But even if brainking 'ends', then you would not 'time-out', and even if you would, it wouldn't matter anymore. So where is the problem?

Also, there is a resign button at the bottom. Keeps you from timing out, if it is so important for you.

Did you contact your opponent and ask for a draw (or offer a draw in the game)??

Finally, which part of 'Time per move: 7 days' did you not understand when you signed up for the game? It is well known that many players fully use the alloted time; and it has been discussed about a gazillion times in detail here. If you don't want to play that slow, don't sign up for such games.

Hrqls: That makes it easier to remember them both.

crosseyed: it sure is ;0(

ketchuplover: And, on Mothersday, mothers celebrate Mothersday for their mother and love their father too.

ketchuplover:

Mr.T said he loves his mother even on Father's day

crosseyed: in the netherlands mothersday is always on the 2nd sunday in may, and fathersday on the 3rd sunday in june

Bernice: It is odd that the dates are so completely different in so many countries for Mother Day and Father Day. You would think they would both be on set days.

crosseyed: septemeber is fathers day in Australia I think...dont know about nz

Mélusine: That is lovely for you. Long may it lasts
BYW Father Day in the UK is 18th June too.

crosseyed: I prefer Mothersday because I do nothing this day. I've a present and I choose what I want to eat and my children and their father make the meal. I remember that a few years ago, I chose something easy to cook, but now they have experience in cooking, so the meal is better ! It's funny. It makes good memories.

Mélusine: Yes ever here in the UK soon.

In France, Fathersday is the Sunday 2 or 3 weeks after Mothersday, this year the 18 on June. Is it the same in your country ? Is there a Fathersday in your country ?

grenvthompson: 30 different dates ! I'd like to know how this day is chosen.

Aganju: Ah yes, it's a good idea to travel but I've no children living outside France.

grenvthompson: in Portugal is in the first sunday of May.

Aganju: Some quick research showed me there are at least 30 different dates around the world, so good travel could be most productive.

Mélusine: so ... you could travel and have TWO of them!

winterangels: Thank you, but in France, Mothers Day is the last Sunday on May, so the 28.

HAPPYDAY TO ALL THE MOTHERS ON BRAIN KING

Frankgon: so there is no problem now ?

Sorry, I forget that I already move my King. So, 13. Is ilegal

Frankgon: I mean 4. ...Nf6 instead Kf6 (was a writing mistake)

Hi. 0-0 is a ilegal move? I have a game against Student89 sarted 17 April 2017. My colour is white, the movings are: 1. e4 c5, 2. Nf3 Nc6, 3. Bb5 d6, 4. h3 Kf6, 5. e5 dxe5, 6. Nxe5 Qd5, 7. Bxc6+ bxc6 8.- Nf3 De6+, 9. Qe2 Qxe2+ 10. Kxe2 Ba6+, 11. Ke1 Nd5, 12. d3 c4 and I want to move 13.- 0-0 But Brainking doesn´t allows me to do this. There is no check over my King neihter checkin his way. So, why not is allowed 0-0 in this position. There is a mistake of programation in this site.

ketchuplover: If only it was that easy.

just give the site a good swift kick

Fencer: it was very interesting. you put so much into it..don't give up on the site or us..It made me hope that you might stay..

Fencer: it was very satisfying to read the whole interview, after i went through the first one that you gave in the past.... respect for all of your time on the answers and for your passionate work on brainking. brainking helped me a lot of times to stop thinking about work.... or to have a short break from researches.... who knows, maybe i gonna think about a non-profit concept for brainking....IF i find the time

And finished! You can release it, furbster.

10 questions left. Almost there.

grenvthompson: Or cancel the page loading once the game board is loaded, as whatever is left isn't realy relevant - works on chrome at least.

meh, I have 100 MB internet. I suspect the page is faulty and it's probably my habit of trying to go too fast... you guys should try loading a game page and attempting to scroll with the mouse wheel before the page loads and see if you get the same behavior.

I've no problems with scrolling.....perhaps because I play with my tablet.....

ketchuplover:

a lovely scroll in the park

beach: I have not had any problems with scrolling in any sites I visit.

Chrome works great for me on all sites. I just bought a Chromebook laptop and it works great with everything I do. I do have high speed cable WIFI internet.

speachless: people at Goldtoken have been having the same problem since last week.

crosseyed: Maybe, but it's still the best - though Opera and Firefox are close now according to this... https://html5test.com/compare/browser/chrome-57/ie-11/firefox-53/safari-10.2/opera-37.html

grenvthompson: thanks for the explanation and the link. i've been lucky as my mouse with scroll wheel works very well on this site. while using firefox on the newest mac os.

It's happened to me to, but not just here

MrDelete:  I have the same problem  its been doing now for about a week.  4 different computers all the same problem and only on this site

grenvthompson: Chrome is not compatible in a lot sites.

Roberto Silva: it seems related to that, i can certainly reproduce it by trying to scroll really quickly before the page has time to load... and then it's disabled forever (until I close the browser).

I reproduced on another site the same way... so probably the times I've seen it the page looks like it's loaded, but actually isn't.

Also this is chrome, so may not occur in other browsers... chrome may soon no longer be the best browser :(

grenvthompson: If you can't move the scroll bar with the mouse wheel, chances are the page still hasn't finished loading so it's sort of locked. The pages on this site tend to take longer to load than most.

if you don't believe me, here's some light reading :) https://www.sitepoint.com/html5-javascript-mouse-wheel/

speachless: It's definitely this site, other sites don't cause it. The scrolling can absolutely be controlled by the browser, just like clicking the button... i'm guessing this is unintentional though
