in the who is on line board, under action, some players action is null. When did that one start and what does it mean?

nobleheart: That would be an improvement, but right now all the messages in a game are displayed at the bottom of the page. I would like to see message retained throughout a multiple game match.

besides,BK is known for unique games,we would want to be a copy-cat

I have noticed that Yahoo, XE.com, and Paypal all have slightly different conversion rates.
question eriisa have you researched this further?what did you find?

Geri39: maybe we should take a vote,see how many like it?dominoes isnt a very challenging game strategically,I can think of ones more interesting,I am sure fencer can judging by his past choices.

alanback: you mane maybe a button for"message history"?

Geri39: Yes and it is a good game

harley: Thank You for the options! I don't want to make Fencer work harder than he should..he definitely deserves a break! I can become a Rook & have at least 9 months added on that is left of the Knight membership

MagicDragon: You have a few options, you can either:

pay as a rook, and the remaining knight days will be transfered to your rook membership (so you'll have over 6 months rook membership)

Stay as a knight until it runs out then the rook will begin or

ask Fencer how much it would be to upgrade to rook and he'll give you an exact figure to pay.

I do have a question tho...I became a Knight starting on Sept 15th & then becoming a Rook next week, would I get a refund from the original Knight payment minus almost 1 1/2 months for being a Knight? Sorry if it is a little confusing. I was wondering about that

I use paypal & whichever amount it is here for currency is the same amount that is paid thru paypal. Have to wait at least 3 to 4 business days for the transfer of funds to take place

Mirjam: Gold Token.com

Geri39: Better to post a request here;

http://brainking.com/en/Board?bc=3 :o)

<Geri39> Who is Gold Token?
Why do you like Dominoes?
You can post this kind of requests on the feature requests board:)

Can Dominoes be added to this site since Gold Token has it now?

I have noticed that Yahoo, XE.com, and Paypal all have slightly different conversion rates.

MagicDragon: About $33.14 according to the Yahoo calculator.

Fencer: DUH on my part again! LOL I knew I seen it somewhere after I posted my last post Again Thank You!

MagicDragon: There is a link "How much is it in my currency?" on the Paid Membership page.

I'm wondering, how much is 28 Euro's in US Dollars today? I'm thinking of becoming a Rook again after the short time of being a Knight ( way to much thinking of how many open game slots that I have)

alanback: Good idea. Or at the least carry over the last couple of messages so that the conversational context can be picked up again.

plaintiger: To expand upon that suggestion, when I am playing a multiple game match, it can be disconcerting to have the message box cleared after each game. I would like to see the message box contain all the messages sent during the match, not just the current game.

Walter Montego: i second that - though as far as i can tell, the messages do show up for the person you wrote them for - at least sometimes - because i'll say something when accepting a game, then go to the game to make my first move and find a message from my opponent saying, for example, "ain't that the truth?"...to which i, of course, have to reply with, "um...ain't what the truth?" and by the time my opponent makes their next move, they don't remember either...

it is really annoying. i agree that all messages pertaining to a game, from the sending of the invitation on, should appear in the chat history. thanks...

plaintiger: Is this in anyway related to the bug of having your reply to accepting a game invitation not appear in the message or show to the person you wrote it for?
Because of this bug, I have stopped writing a reply when I accept a game and wait until my second move or after my opponent's message stays on the page.

Fencer, it'd be nice if all the messages pertaining to a game would appear.

plaintiger:

If you don't see something in red to confirm when you try to send something, nothing has been sent.

oooh - dig the new line in the "game over" messages for match games: "The game is a part of a multi game match which is not finished."

i like it! thanks, Filip!

playBunny: bugs always get a bad rap

BIG BAD WOLF: That can only be a bug.

plaintiger: Just tested, and nope - when you reject, nothing gets sent to the other person - even if you write something in the box. Not sure if this is a bug or is suppose to do this.

does the person requesting membership in a fellowship not receive any notice back if the request is denied? i spent about fifteen minutes agonizing over the proper wording for a "request declined" notice and when i finally got it right, i chose "reject" (which should be "decline" or "deny") from the popup menu, clicked the "confirm" checkbox, and hit "send"...and then today i got a message from the person i thought i'd sent that message to saying, "why's the decision taking so long?"

Duh. If you read what I posted here before, ignore it.

Oh, never mind.

harley: Yes! this is what I meant I seem to have started very high in the ranking
http://brainking.com/en/BKRGraph?u=15514&tp=50

wellywales: Not always, for example my highest score for tablut is in the middle of the graph. I haven't looked at the other graphs but I think they're all different.

harley: Yes you are correct thanks, you seem to get the highest score when you do well when you first start playing a game.

wellywales: It's on my graphs. If it isn't shown, it may be because your current rating is the highest you have achieved.

Yes, it is on the graph, wellywales. You may have to click back to last year or even the year before to see it, but the highest rating is there.

Is there any where on the site that shows your own highest score achieved in a particular game, I thought it was on the graph, but I don't think that is the case, perhaps it could be implemented on the graph

alanback: A small visual bug.

I notice that in a match where one player has doubled, the cube appears with a "2" even when reviewing moves that preceded the double. The cube should be displayed as a "1" when reviewing a point in the match where the cube had not yet been turned.

rod03801: thanks for that rod...makes me feel a little better.

The "show oldest messages first" used to always be there. Then, it disappeared for a while. I noticed it missing, but never thought to comment on it. (It is good to use when you join a new fellowship, or go to a DB you haven't been to before, and you want to read what has happened since the beginning. Much easier at that point to read from top to bottome, instead of bottom to top..) It did just return recently.
I think the "add to favorite boards" has been back a little longer than that, but it could have come back at the same time.
But yes, both used to be there, vanished, and are now back.. :-D

Vikings: oh thanks- I should rad that board! : )
Just wanted to give Fencer on on it, even if it was late!

baddessi:the dice fix was about 2 weeks ago and discussed on the backgammon board I believe, the read latest message first link was a little before that but I have never seen any one discuss it

Jason: you're like me- too busy playing your games!!!

baddessi: yes i noticed a few days ago it had been fixed was going to mention it , but my memory is slipping ;)

Eriisa: someone's gotta do it, right?
ok, how about the gammon dice...I know that before you weren't forced to use both dice, you could work around it..I'm probably not explaining that well, but I bet y'all know what I mean. Anyways, it seems "fixed" now and that seems new too..so whenever that happened, Thanks Fencer!

baddessi: There's never anything wrong with asking questions!


oh the other hand, I'm not afraid to tease baddesi! lol

that's the difference..I'm not afraid to embarrass myself and ask! LOL

playBunny: Ok baddessi, you have us wondering now!!!

playBunny: I think it has been there for a long time. Some people like to read messages starting from the top and reading down, which is good for board which have... 10-15 posts total, but when boards have many pages of posts, I find that option pointless and never use it.
