Thanks Fencer :o) xxx

I noticed that with the search box on the Player List it does not always come up with all the players that match what you type in. I'm not sure why though!

I asked a couple of friends to join brainking, i just caught up with them and they said they had. I asked them for there i.d's and tried to search for them in the search box on players list, but came up with nothing. So i went through the names & i found them - is this a problem you know about Fencer ???

Oh yeah.....I just want to say "Bye Mr/Ms Potty Mouth." :) I wouldn't want anyone to think I am rude! LOL

Fencer....thanks so much for the "help". Your site is awesome and I must say even though I am new to all the game sites I LOVE yours the best. The only thing is.....you should have a warning label added....."This site is addictive!" LOL

Lamby: Restored. And Happy New Year :-)

Hi Fencer, Happy New Year to you! :o) My checkers game against Scarecrow has 'timeouted' & Im not sure if its due to the system bug you mentioned or not? The game ID number is 9516. If its my fault, then my apologies to Scarecrow.

Was she one of the ones who were cat fighting on the IYT "other web sites" discussion board?

I havent read these message boards for a while & what a shock when I did! Too many people with too much time on their hands getting irate at things that arent so important, are they? Well everyone, I wish you all a Happy, Peaceful & Respecful New Year! And just enjoy having fun being able & lucky enough to play games on a great site! :o)

Please dont confuse me with F*Y*T*...or otherwise the woman now known as X...I had absolutely nothing to do with her!!! LOL...she had real problems!!!!

the other 2 that i play at are, pente.net and allmixedup.com

that should be this sites slogan....brainking rules.... like iyt has crush your oppenent? yea right like ya can crush someone playin one of these games haha...we are kings,queens etc here so sayin we rule!! is like part of it

Brain king definitly rules! we need bumper stickers!
Go play at brainking.com!

for future people that may complain fencer.,..maybe you should have it say non-refundable for memberships i did see that at another site not sure where but maybe that is needed...unless it is and i missed it, brainking rules!!....

yeah for disabling user "X" way to go Fencer!

Mom: Yes, it sometimes happen. I will look at it. You do nothing wrong :-)
About the annoying user - I've just disabled him/her.

Yep, those are the 2 :-) I have heard of others that other people play at, but don't remember what they are. You can try searching on any search engine for something like "turn based board games" if you want to find more.

try www.dailygammon.com and www.little golem.net

Kevin, I read a post from you that said you play on five game sites. I know only 3 sites.
Brainking, Goldtoken, and Itsyourturn.

I like brainking alot because it is fast compared to the others. And GT would be better if they would let the peopl who don't pay to play the game variations. I am a member at GT for now.
What I wanted to know is what are the other sites you play at, because I hve been trying to find some more.

I have noticed that sometimes the "Friends On-line" shows "none" when there are friends on-line. I have checked to make sure that I have them listed as my on-line friends and sometimes they show up and sometimes they don't until I go to "Who is On-line". It usually shows up there but just not at the bottom of the page. Am I doing something wrong?

Been reading all the post and I want to say that I honestly don't like the user name. I have a daughter that plays on here and I'm sorry....but the name is a bit much. I do have one question though....you said your chess team left this site. Did they have problems quitting as well? I am fairly new to this site and I don't want to buy any membership at the moment because I am reading post like these and think it best to wait to see what all the site is about. Good and bad. There is no perfect site and no perfect person. And I'm sorry, but I would not open any mail with the name "F*** Y** T**" as the sender. I'm sure if everyone could calm down a bit, these issues could be resolved.

Thanks! I hear you about the time issue...i'm currently playing games at 5 game sites, but this one is by far my favorite! I'll miss you here, even if i see you at GT! :-)

aww Kevin, your such a sweetie!!!! Its just that I have only so much time available to play. I am the vise pres of our chess team and have a commitment to play where the team plays. Its nothing personally against this site...my feelings are not always the same as the team...but the team decided as a whole to leave. I am left here when I didnt have time to be here in the first place....some of the people here are truely wonderful folk!! You are one of them!!!! And I too have thoroughly enjoyed playing you!!! Please do send me that invite at GT!!!!!!!!!!

xoxox

I think you should stay Badger! You're a lot of fun to play against, and i didn't really know any people here when i joined, but that didn't stop me either! :-)

Thank you for your kind invite to stay hrlqns. You, of everyone (including fencer) are the only one who actually asked me to stay. Its funny, seems my wanting to leave brought out everyones aggression!!! lol. The world needs more kind and understanding people like yourself, then we would all be alot happier!!!! Thank you again...you made my heart feel warm!!!

hey "fyt"... im not even gonna waste my time with you... and with THAT user name... sheeeesh... you need to grow up and act like an adult... quit being imature (sp?)... now quit wasting everyones time... thanks!

stop sending messages and you don't get sick of it, and Fencer: please remove everything that remembers us on him/her

I play on there too, but you can have the best of both worlds! I've found the people on here just as nice as GT, and just as many nutters too!!
And I consider this to be the better site of the two, just for the variation of games and service fencer gives.

thanks for the info but im quite happy on goldentoken games!!!! much nicer there!!!

One last thought (I'm full of them tonight!), I've also encountered some 'not nice' people here, you get them on every site. Add them to your 'enemies' list, thats what its there for, and just play the nice people. They far out-number the horrible people!

Hi Badger, have you thought of staying without your team? I didn't know anyone when I came here but its a blast! You can still have fun without your team. Just a thought?

the reason why my name is this, is just hoping it will get get cancelled!!! i dont care about ratings or nothing i actually resigned in the games to get my membership closed because they said it wouldnt be cause i had games going i just want my membership closed and they wont do it!!! i dont want to come back but i dont like my personal info being on somewhere im using!!! so everyone sort it out before you open it!!! im not wanting to be in a website were there is nasty insulting people on it!! i dont mean everyone is just a couple ive spoke to!!!! WILL THIS PLEASE GET CANCELLED YET??? IM SICK OF SENDING YOU MESSAGES AND GETTING NOTHING BACK!!!!!!

Like I said, my team doesnt play here anymore so I have no reason to stay. Enough said.

actually i closed them games because my membership wouldnt be closed because i was playing the time!!!! and now i have none it still aint closed so get your facts right dave before you open your trap!!!

yuppers GT has been around longer than you're aware...when they first started their site, I became a contributing member...yes, before you could even play there!!! And you can keep the smoke. It dont interest me.

been paying 4 years at GT? hmmmmmmm what you been smoking?? GT hasnt been online 4 years NOR has it been charging for more then 2 max!!! Fencer ALWAYS tries to please every one by fixing as much as he can.. How is he supposed to fix every single problem that 1500 people have in one day? you are being very unfair im my opion and frankly you should go back to Slow token cuz it doesnt even compare to here! ta ta!

If you wish to childishly down grade me because I wish to leave perhaps you could ask me why first??? Its not that I wish to down grade fencer for the site he has put together. Its not money, heck $28 is mearly dinner out. And I did test the site out before joining. I asked fencer for a refund which he is unwilling to give. I am the only one left here out of my whole chess team and have no reason to stay. They all left because fencer wasnt fixing problems they were experiencing....now I have no need to stay...you can still find me at goldtoken.com as Badger...look me up. They got great games there and I have been a gold paying memember there for 4 years...6 at itsyourturn.com!!! Its sad....there are 25 members on my chess team..all paying full membership at GT. They were really excited about brainking till the problems started popping up and they were not getting fixed. At least I was willing to PAY for my game playing honestly..I believe in paying for the efforts a webmaster puts together for our benifit and not being a "freebee" player who plays under an assortment of names so she can get in all the games she wants. So next time you want to chide someones desire to leave...think twice before putting your foot in your mouth. It makes you look bad.

Id go for dark color scheme..AND sunglasses, and then tomorrow hopefully Im back on white color scheme..:P

Just a temporary solution [more important tasks in the queue], try to switch to "Dark color scheme" on your Settings page. Is it better?

yes!! eehhh sunglasses could do the trick..or is it just because of new years eve last night??? Idunno...k´back to zzzz..LOL

Very soon [background and backgammon] :-)
Just curious - why don't you adjust your monitor brightness and contrast?

Hey Fencer, "Happy New Year".. :-))
ahh, my clientel :-) and i are wondering how soon will it be, before you have the "background choice" link set up..?? or did you already do it and i just don't know where to look..!!!!

ummmmm, i'm not sure if your relativly new to web-tv or not, but if you're having that phrase "to big to be shown completely" come up more than a couple times, or when you submit after playing a game and you get a blank white page. then it is time to shut your web-tv unit "off".. this lets it "re-boot itself" or clean it's "ka-HOO-cheez" (lol) and then you can go again.. only takes a minute or so.. should be ok again for a while.. :-))

I know that you are busy, but I was just wondering if you had any idea as to when backgammon would be up and wondering? 8-)

Fencer....I just want to say that you are doing an excellent job with brainking. You listen to the people that have suggestions as well as complaints. My opinion of it all is this....anyone who comes to this site can "sample" the games as well as the site itself, before buying membership. You are limited to games but not turns which is awesome! I spend more time on brainking than I do any other game site. So my thoughts on it all is that maybe there is something other than your site that is wrong with someone wanting to sell their membership. Like money problems after Christmas or something. I honestly can not believe that this site is not the "BEST"! :)

I don't know. As I remember, there was a problem with draw offers but it is already fixed.
Actually, no site is totally flawless. It is impossible. Nobody can test all features and combinations.

Could not agree more. What's bugging Badger?? What wasn't being fixed (in her opinion)?

Can't imagine why you aren't happy. This has to be the best and fastest run turn based sight that is online at present. Too bad you can't see the site for all its +'s.. AND YES Fencer does fix problems faster then any other site owner does!

1) Fixed.
2) I'll look at it. A little bug, probably.

It says at the bottom that black resigned (drgnrdr). However, if you look on either player's profile, it says drgnrdr won. It seems most likely that white resigned (although i guess i can't be sure!) :-)

http://www.brainking.com/game/ArchivedGame?g=11228

This game was just completed. It hasn't affected my rating (was a rated game), and does not even show up on either of our profiles under completed games. (even if the rating difference was enough to not move mine, it should at least show up!)
