So far, Fencer has not limited the number of waiting games some can have. Therefore, I feel it would be quite inappropriate to accept the games and then delete them. We just need a way to quickly find the games that do interest us.

As membership increases so will the number of waiting games. Whether those games are posted by one or many members is irrelevent, obviously there should be no suggestion that they be deleted.

Summertop

As far as that goes...Absolutely. In fact, I would like to see the following stats ona person's profile AND on the screen to accept a game invite:

1: How many deleted vs. accepted games (per game type).

2: How many timed out games vs. played (also, per game type).

23. Marzo 2005, 17:46:13

I'm not sure if it'd be possible but perhaps for example, i wanted to have 35 games on backgammon on waiting games, instead of showing all 35 have the 35 in brackets eg furbster; backgammon; (35) and allow the person to choose how many games they would like, that way there wouldn't be a massive long list of the same game.

I would like to see a message when kicked out of a fellowship - there are many on here with weak minds, and I've had people mad at me just because of what someone else told them - not what is the truth or anything I have ever talked to them about (all second hand gossip). I'm not sure if I had ever been kicked out of a fellowship because of this (have too many fellowships to keep track of), but would be nice to know if I had.

BIG BAD WOLF: Many Big Bosses are confronted with "Sophie's Choice" by someone in the FS. You either boot friend A or lose friend B. This would be too hard to explain in a message.

Not too hard to explain.

They wouldn't be required to leave a message. Just like when a person leaves a fellowship, they're quite entitled to leave the box blank.
I'd like the option to leave a message for people I remove from HOME. I do this with pawns who haven't been on the site for a few months. I'd like to leave them a message to say if they ever came back, they could re-join.

Argomento: Fellowship message to all

When a message is sent from a BIG BOSS of a fellowship to all members, can there be something automaticly added like "Message from Fellowship XXXX's BIG BOSS" - or something that way we can easly tell it's a message sent to everyone, and not a personal message just sent to 1 person.

Argomento: Replying to someone's posts

When you reply to someones post, it automatically adds the original person's name (in bold) to your new message with a colon (:) after it. Can it be changed to put a comma there instead?

Typically, the colon is used to specify who is talking. A comma is used to specify who you are talking too. I know it is a small issue, but my frail mind doesn't need any more confusion.

Back to Feature Requests....

i love the new feature where if you click on someones profile you can see how many vacation days they have left - at least now if someone is on auto-vacation you can see how long you may have to wait for them to time out

26. Marzo 2005, 22:47:55

Argomento: Re:

Fiona: it doesn't seem to be working very well. I have one whose counter slowly slipped on towards 0 days, then at 2 days it suddenly climbed to 20 something. the counter is on the way down again. grrrr

Argomento: Re: Re:

rabbitoid: oh dear i never noticed that as only just noticed it as a new feature - and heres me getting excited as my opponent whos been on auto-vacation for ages ony has one day left - will have to see if that changes at all

Argomento: Re: Re:

rabbitoid: That would happen at the beginning of a new year. Unless you're talking about days left before next move, in which case the extra 20 days is probably a planned vacation.

Argomento: Re: Re:

rabbitoid: ok i will do - thanks for letting me know about the possible glitch

26. Marzo 2005, 23:04:52

Actually come to think of it I have an opponent who hasn't moved in over a month. That would surely mean at least 20 days of autovacation, yet he still has 21 days left.

26. Marzo 2005, 23:05:18

Argomento: Re: Re:

grenv: no, it happened last week, just before the weekend. I wasn't following the development each day, but I know I've seen 3, then 2 days left, now it's back to 21. there are no scheduled vacation days set.

26. Marzo 2005, 23:07:40

While we're on the topic, do we really need 30 days per year? I wish I had 30 days where I couldn't get to a computer, lol. In reality I doubt I use more than 10.

26. Marzo 2005, 23:10:06

lol. I looked at your games, and indeed we are.

Fencer, i don't want to name names since it seems like it might be a system error. Any chance you could check into this? I'd kind of like to know how I do in these games before the apocolypse.

I'll have a look.

Argomento: Fix backgammon rules

Here's a perfect example in Hypergammon of the BG bug. In this position as black I rolled 5-1 and could have moved 12-7 to great advantage (being not able to play the 1). Since this is against the rules I didn't play it that way. Since Backgammon is by far the most popular game, I would think this should be one of the listed priorities.
