rod03801: So this time the "wolf" cry really corresponds to something? My apologies to (V), and of course this doesn't change much my opinion of MS products.

rabbitoid: True, but this also made the News today too.

(V): yawn

I'm no big fan of MS, but this is something I get hundreds of by email each day. My /dev/null folder is always hungry

Users of Microsoft's Internet Explorer are being urged by experts to switch to a rival until a serious security flaw has been fixed. The flaw in Microsoft's Internet Explorer could allow criminals to take control of people's computers and steal their passwords, internet experts say.

Microsoft urged people to be vigilant while it investigated and prepared an emergency patch to resolve it.

"Microsoft says it has detected attacks against IE 7.0 but said the "underlying vulnerability" was present in all versions of the browser."

"The message needs to get out that this malicious code can be planted on any web site, so simple careful browsing isn't enough."

Snoopy: Yes, you are.

alanback:but they make yummy cocktails

Czuch:Seems especially harsh, since prawns can't live out of water

Czuch: It's like a religion. You are supposed to obey, not to understand.
Seriously - I want to make some changes in January, regarding this one and some other pawn restrictions.

I dont see any harm letting pawns finish ponds that they have started before becoming pawns? It doesnt happen that way with tournaments, does it?

I think you can get kicked out of tournaments that have not yet started, and the same could be done with ponds, but again, I dont understand the reason to not let pawns finish their started ponds?

Nirvana: hmmm i wondered what you meant earlier by your post, now i see

Is the 'All Games' option going to come back sometime ?

EDIT

I just tried to create a Random Elimination Tournament, but it just went to a blank screen with url - http://brainking.com/en/DoTournament


I will try another way

EDIT 2

Tried it a couple of different ways using Random, it will not let you

can't we set tournaments using the 'all games' option any more?

Snoopy: Haven't heard anything differant.

coan.net: its already in bug tracker a few times

rod03801: Since it stops showing the fellowship right before the list of games are shown, even if the fellowship does not have the new game - I would guess a small bug that has to do with the new game added to the site.......

rod03801:Both of these Sarah & Angie Sinking Sensation and Knights Of The Round Table also have the same problem.

I also have a problem creating tournaments in that I go through all the settings etc, click on 'create' and a blank page comes up. Incidentally when choosing which game why can't we select All Games like we used to be able to?

Nirvana: I take that back. I just tried the link in your post, and I still see the problem. Odd. The ones I checked last night were all like that, and when I checked THOSE just now, they were back to normal.

It seems to have been all fellowships, but I believe it is fixed now. Try again. (It is back to normal for me, anyways)

Jason: I have the same problem with the ludo fellowship. I rebooted twice but it didn't help at all.

BadBoy7: yes lots are like that for me , just the list of members .......no boards listed and no teams ect .

Bernice: i have rebooted and refreshed and it is still that way...something is messed up somewheres cause its only certain f/s's and as u said all other game sites etc are just fine

BadBoy7: I had that problem yesterday...i just closed down and re-entered BK...all other game sites were OK.

could you check to see what the problem is ..in certain fellowships i am in...I can only get into the main page..but there is no place on the right side where it usually says discussion boards to click on to get into see the posts or to make any posts..it is all gray blank....the ones are JUST FUN & GAMES & BadBoys Game Palace & NO HOLES BARRED & Sarah & Angie Sinking Sensation fellowships...it is just all gray and no place to click...ty

MadMonkey: I've accidentally commented out one line in the code. Try it now.

Filip (had to be me didnt it lol)

Could you look at THIS game.

I have to make one of 2 moves (both forced), but when i try to move d10-d8...etc etc.. is all that happens is d10 vanishes and i get d10-a1-a1-a1 in game notation

Please advice

Czuch: yeahhhhhhhh,.....you WIN ---------> Your turn lol

Snoopy: The answer is still yes. I just checked after you blocked me.

Snoopy: Oh, I read your question incorrectly. You were wondering if YOU block someone if they can see your tournaments. If you would like to test that, block me and send me a PM letting me know, and I will test it out.

rod03801: okay thanks for trying
looks like i have to go thou the 100+ games and remove them personally

Snoopy: I tested it real quick, by blocking you temporarily, and I was still able to see your tournaments.

but if you have someone on block
can they still see the tournaments youve created?

This board is not for discussing/debating politics. The most off topic ones have been deleted. Stay on topic please.

MadMonkey: Camelot
Camelot is a very interesting strategic game played on a 160 square board. Each player starts with 4 knights and 10 pawns which combine moving rules of checkers and halma. The goal is to capture all opponent's pieces or move two own pieces to the opponent's castle.????? This one?

I spy with my little eye something beginning with "C" ...................................... I am going to set a Tourny for it lol

(Fencer, Firefox Update Scanner is great for finding these things out lol)

Foxy Lady: Well there are so many multi nicks on this site now it's crazy. I've got someone using my old name Pm'ing me at the mo. Oh they admit it's a fake account, but as for who it is in reality they won't say.

I've told the Globs about it being a multi nick account, but I've heard no news over what they've done.

Artful Dodger: Isn't that the truth.

cindsman: Don't take it to seriously cindsman. They probably think you're me. I get accused of that all the time. There are plenty of other high-quality fellowships on BrainKing (check out Mad Monkey's) that offer great tourneys and fun chat. Don't let the few sour the good things the many contribute to this site :)

cindsman: And which level of membership guarantees that you'll never be kicked out of a fellowship?

I was recently invited to The Flame Pit fellowship. I accepted but when I returned a few days later I was surprised to find myself thrown out of same without so much as an explanation. I sent a request to be admitted, thinking an error had occurred, and a message asking why I had been treated in such a manner, only to be refused entry on the grounds that I was suspected of being someoneelse or a spy and sworn at.!
This is a game site first and foremost, the purpose of which is to provide fun. It is not M.I.5!!
I don't know about everyoneelse here, but I am fed up to the back teeth with the constant paranoia about so called multinics on this site. It sours the atmosphere here. It does not encourage people to stay here.
I will for the time being remain in the fellowships in which I am at present, but I am seriously considering whether or not to renew my membership when the time comes. I have had enough of this nonsense.

Czuch: If I'm not mistaken, only rooks can be Big Bosses.
If a Rook doesn't renew the subscription, though, I think it will become BigBoss until (s)he hands over the job to someone else... but his/her powers will be diminished like you seem to be experiencing...

anyone know about bishops as big boss of a fellowship? seems I dont have all my powers, IE to invite people or admit them when they request membership?

Tuesday: So good to see you back amongst the membership. You were sorely missed!!

What a great day, I see that Rose is back as a member also! Sure missed you in the fellowships etc.

Tuesday: The number of times that board has been viewed since the beginning of the day, Czech time.

Tuesday: I think Vikes is confusing two seperate issues. yes I am having a problem as a bishop in the cave fellowship, and yes there is a political debate board in the debate fellowship, which I am having no problems with except all you LIBERALS !!

Tuesday: Ms Diplomatic Britches???? ROFL
I'm so glad you are back! you were missed!

Tuesday: yeah, I'm nice on public boards

Tuesday: you got me figured out huh?
