crosseyed: You started with others and Jules. shame on you doing that on a PB board.

crosseyed:

crosseyed: I sent your post to the boss of this site

heavenlyemma: I am not arguing with you on here so don't bother wasting your time.

imsoaddicted: and i also have a pond with - 6hrs on it so i was thinking was it anything to do with the time-out being turned of the other day

imsoaddicted: Don't know, and unfortunately Fencer I think has gone off line.

It'll either start soon, or something needs to be done before it can 'kick off'.

Top 10% Faster Backgammoners for 2006-10
this is the one that springs to mind should of started 2 hrs ago

imsoaddicted: You'd have to be more specific about which one(s) I think.

why tournaments dont seem to be starting at the correct time

Bry: Ok Boss lol. Anyone (except Jules) can join me on The Good, the Bad and the Ugly fellowship.

Brainking.Com Board : -

Board for everybody who is interested in BrainKing itself, its structure, features and future.

Please take any further chat about slow play, number of games etc, etc, etc, to either General Chat, or a Fellowship.

Thanks.

crosseyed: The site also gives people freedom to not move at the pace you want them to.

Come on Ladies and Gentlemen. this board is for issues relating to BK. Not for arguements.

imsoaddicted: anyway that was my final comment on any subject with you otherwise you go on and on with pointless statements

Some of us here are here to PROMOTE BK and make Fencer some money to better the SITE

Others well read the BOARDS that will tell you what they are doing

HAVE FUN problem makers because we all know who you are LOL:)

Mr. Shumway: Why don't you practice what you preach?
This site give me the freedom to look around unless people are in cloak mode.

crosseyed LMAO now that is so funny me struggle to make moves thinking of the 10000+ i made a few days

crosseyed: why don't you go and take care of your own business?

Mr. Shumway: me to cheering my deary Sunday up

Mr. Shumway: You must be easily pleased then lol.

imsoaddicted: Yes but when the 1 hour is over they then have another hour. Therefore 2 hours.

crosseyed: you keep amusing me, thanks

crosseyed: i made the point earlier they are actually 2 hr games because each player has one hour

Mr. Shumway: I am so glad I amused you LMAO.

crosseyed:

imsoaddicted: Well it apears not on this site. I have played a few 1 hour games where it became a 2 hour game before completion time. I am not referring to the other night where no games were time-out when the site was playing up once again.

Mr. Shumway: Yes I CAN mention time limits as often as I wish. It's people like you who discuss it further lol.
If I play a game that is for 1 hour, I expect it to be I hour. Not 2 hours.

crosseyed: You may say something about the time limits as often as you like - that doesn't mean that they will be discussed. There doesn't seem to be a point in discussing time limits to me - what aspect would you want to discuss?

And how can you abuse time limits? You simply can't.

crosseyed: well if it was a one hour time-out game that person would of timed out anyway

crosseyed: actually 1 hr games are 2 hr games as each person has 1 hr

imsoaddicted: He won't be invited again. And time limits will be discussed as many time as I choose. Especailly 1 hour games that become 2 hours.

imsoaddicted: The simple answer is either the Barinking rules are changed so we are allowed to play for more than one Team of a certain game at one time or the bug is fixed so people can not abuse it.

crosseyed: simple answer to that dont invite that fellowship to any more matches
and the question over time-limits you bring up again was well answered on the tournament board not so long ago

BIG BAD WOLF: I agree with you Wolf we should be able to move about a bit more. What's the point of being in so many Fellowships if you can't join in on some games.

I have always thought that everyone should stay with one fellowship (for all games). That way a greater sense of team fidelity could be nurtured. It would inspire greater competition between fellowships and that would probably be more fun.

MadMonkey: Most Tournament/Fellowship games are pointless when people abuse the time limits.

MadMonkey: your not allowed to leave a fellowhip if you have outstaniding tournament games so i dont see why the rules should be different with interfellowship matches

BIG BAD WOLF: Something has to be done. This player only joined my team recently and i put them in a match against another fellowhsip that started yesterday morning. Then in the evening they leave the team, sign up for another fellowship team and then challenge us to a match as well
Something not quite right about that, if we all did that, it would make fellowship matches pointless.

Hey guys, don't forget the coming interview with Czuch Czuckers.  Send me the questions you want to ask him.  The time is almost up. 

BIG BAD WOLF: Oh, right. Thanks!

pauloaguia: You have at least 8 games which did not make it past move #1 - games that don't make it to the 4th move are not counted towards the ratings (but are counted in your win/loss record) - so that is why you see a difference.

MadMonkey: yes ive noticed at least one member of my backgammon team who is playing in Roland Fantom has left and playing for another team

MadMonkey: Not a bug, but I think is a good feature. Sometimes a team just needs 1 or 2 more people, and for players who like to play - being able to sign up for that team to play, then possible go back to their original team is a nice feature.

I think there was once a bug where the same player was playing in the same team challenge/match (against themselves) - I'm not sure if that was ever fixed or what came of it.

But as long as that does not happen - it's nice to be able to move teams. (But I would support maybe some kind of limit - like you can't join anouther team for 30 days since you joined another or something)

Could someone please explain to me the meaning of my row on the Dark Chess ratings page? It states "14 (7/0/15)", under "Counted Games".
I've just checked and every single one of my Dark Chess games was ranked (Counts towards BKR). So why is it that it says I have only 14 games when I won 7 and lost 15?

Fencer: We can only sign up for one Team of a particular game as the system will not let us play for more than one.
So how can someone playing for a team in one fellowship, leave that team while still playing for it in a match, and join another fellowships team of the same game ??? Is it a bug ???
If not the same person could carry on playing for every fellowship they are a member of.

I just noticed that  aperson's profile shows the number of started games beside the name "Started Games."  Thanks Fencer.

Fencer: not to low i hope for ppl like myself who love to chase records

imsoaddicted: Sure.

i ask this question for future reference
will there ever be a cap on the amount of games one can have on the go?

chit chat here!666 waiting friday 13th
