Argomento: Kevin's Membership Competition
I have deicided to hold a membership competition, but have decided against simply giving it to the person who is best at a certain game. I also wanted to keep it open to all pawns, regardless of whether they are in a tournament or not. Here's how it will work:
1. It is open to all brain pawns who are registered on the site as of the date and time of this message (to prevent people creating multiple accounts and entering more than once)
2. You will send me a message with the title "Kevin's Membership Competition". In it, you will tell me in 100 words or less why you deserve a membership.
3. The deadline for entries will be June 1 at midnight GMT. As long as the message is dated before then, it will be accepted.
4. There will be at least one winner, but could be more depending on quality and quantity of entrants.
5. Please try and use correct spelling, grammar and punctuation. If I can't understand it the first read through, i won't try and read it again.
6. Good luck everyone :-)

CleverHunk, I'm not sure whether Fencer is considering any multi-player games, though I believe at some point he intends to introduce battleboats. If you have any suggestions regarding any games in particular, you could post them up on the Feature Requests board.

I have helped with church outreach programs,and with food & shelter help groups.you are so right about our pampered society.cable TV a basic?,you are right,not so.there ARE people that exists cant even afford a tv.
I know several people who decided to get a computer instead of a TV & use a freenet,since they can't offord both.a computer can be gotten very cheap 2nd these days.
that way,they can job-hunt & stuff online.besides,a growing number of people find TV so mind-numbing brain dead,they feel they are not missing anything.
what has the media offered us lately.
dumb paradies.
sad remakes of remakes.
rubber stamp sitcoms with the same old situations.
mike meyers movies with lame puns the 3 stooges wouldn't use.
and movies...with car crashes...shootings every 20 seconds...shallow plots,little character development..as 2 dimensional as a cartoon.
with all these alledgedly brilliant minds in hollywood,were is the creativity¿ ok,ok blazinshore,I'm getting to deep,drag me back into shallow water again.

Argomento: PayPal
The PayPal option from the USA is pretty easy. There are a few screens/names that could use a bit more explanation (like SWREG, and Atlantic Coast PLC), but the immediate email from Fencer was reassuring once the transaction was complete. All it took was a little persistence and trust.

(I can't help much on setting up the PayPal account, as I did that a few years ago and don't really remember much about it.)

Now let's see how long it takes for the pawn next to my name changes to the new piece. tap...tap... tap...

Argomento: Re:
Any one in Canada needing help on purchasing a membership let me know. I can walk you through what to do. If you dont have a credit card or debit card we can work out ways for you to send payment to or through me and I can pass the membership fee on to Fencer Through Paypal.com
As mentioned by someone else even if you have a bank card (ATM - Debit card) you can use that with Paypal.com now as well. Any questions folks gimme a holler. You can also send Money orders in (US funds)

* Note - Paypal is in US funds not Canadian funds (unless it has changed since I used it last) so don't try to work it out in Canadian currency then try to send it in Canadian. You will send more money then is necessary

I've just made my first move in a game of Atomic chess - but I can't scroll down to click to confirm the move.
I can't even scroll to get the game number.

Maybe this idea of timing the messages has introduced a bug?

Wizard, one option would be to send cash through the post for your membership, if you can exchange your dollars for USA dollars. Of course not everyone trusts the postal service! I'm sure there will be an Australian representative soon if you don't fancy that option.

Blaze, your meaning wasn't lost, I was just teasing!! :o)
It really doesn't bother me giving out my address, I sell on eBay and that requires me to give out my address for everything I sell (and buy!) so I'm quite used to it now!

If you get someone here in Australia to accept payments please let me know who it is as I don't have a card or bank account. :O)

blazeinshore 
harley, what I meant was that I would be happy to help liase with people on payment methods but am a little reluctant to actually do the transactions on their behalf (unless I actually know the person) as that would mean giving out my home address. You already offered to take on that responsibility which kinda let me off the hook anyway. My wording wasn't that good is all. I should have said exactly what I meant rather than that 'top rep' nonsence...lol.

I'm sure we'll make a good team and I'm looking forward to working with you on this :)

Blaze

16. Maggio 2003, 09:17:58

It doesn't matter, any "representative type" is welcome :-D No, just kidding, anybody who wants to help is welcome. THere are no limits for the list.

Aww, Blaze, give over!! LOL!! The important thing is getting the right information to the people who need it, not who is 'top rep' LOL! We can work together for the UK side of things, I reckon we'd make a good team :o)
How many people were you thinking for each country Fencer?

Argomento: Representatives
harley is definitely the person for the job as far as english British payments go as she's offered to use paypal in leui of British potal orders. I believe Rose has offered in similar vein for her country too.

Feel free to list me too, as I would be happy to liase with people on this, and help them find methods of payment; however I feel harley is the best person to be the top rep for the UK.

Fencer, it's great you are doing this; I'm looking forward to seeing the changes on the Paid Membership page and hope the site gains many new brain rooks and brain knights!

Okay, can I start making a list of representatives for payments? Right now we have Rose, harley and blazeinshore (?). Is that correct? It seems that the Paid Membership page is going to be much improved :-)

15. Maggio 2003, 18:55:10

Go to paypal.com and fill out the form there. Its a simple form, just name, address and bank details.
But you DO need some kind of card, switch, solo, visa electron etc... if you have a card that you can withdraw money from a cash machine you can set up a paypal account. (that was my understanding anyway, if I'm wrong please let me know)

15. Maggio 2003, 18:20:23

i'm not a member yet its in the mail like many others i have no visa, when i got to the payment page and it said purchase well how do i purchase i don't have a visa. So i cancelled being confused at that point i went to contact and sent off and e-mail with my questions. I received an anwers that day in detail on whats past that purchase page and it was quite easy after that, so i'm glad i sent off the e-mail even thought i felt silly doing it, because the info was there i just couldn't get past the purchase page i didn't know if i could get back out if i went into the purchase page.

Good thing you brought it up then, it brought about a solution to your dilemma and should aid people in a similar situation as well.

You right about the payment page, it could be a little more straight forward and the only way fencer can know is our feedback. I imagine making it as easy as possible is so crutial, I wonder many people will simply give up at the first snafoo they hit.

15. Maggio 2003, 13:57:04

Argomento: Following my posting of 14 May....
I since created a paypal account and used that to buy membership.

Following what Harley posted last night (thanks for the information harley) I would confirm that it isn't all that difficult to get a paypal account, and also that you don't need a cheque book account or credit card to do so. Paypal accept debit cards too, and once you have a paypal account the process of buying membership is straight forward. So for any brits out there who would like membership yet have no credit card or cheque book but do have a debit card, it's worth considering paypal as one of your options.

Thanks for all great ideas, I will definitely improve the payment description page. About representatives, why not? I can create a list of them and let them handle with their country people, no problem :-) It is worth trying.

That's great Rose. Wonderful that you would be willing to put in the time and effort to help the site progress and also to help people who have the means to pay become members by maybe advising them or assisting them on their method of payment!

I'm now anxious for some feedback from Fencer and Liquid on this as I do feel it has potential to increase site revenue and volume of paid members!
