Gabriel Almeida: If somebody replies with "I am just tired of making the same action over and over." is it obvious to me that it isn't a closed position. And even with good or the right arguments you can open a closed position
Just to be sure I checked your game Now people can see you're indeed in a much better position and the "BK-system" was debet on your lost game Tournament: pro všechny , Discussion Game ID: 4233565 Score of finished games (I Am The Best - Varazslo, Backgammon Race): 0 : 1 (= 0) (show games | Show all games) Time per move (?): 3 days, standard vacation

Yes Jamie, you're totally right What a bloody mistake the creator of this tournament made, by 3 days a move and standard vacation. Or is this what you meant with your question: How is this new plan going to stop people who don't move in games where they are losing? Hmm you let me think now.... LOL
I Am The Best: That's impossible, and in my opinion not the problem When someone is losing a game and refuse to move is that his problem, not mine I guess you didn't lose that game because your opponent didn't move? Probably he was better So your nick doesn't tell the truth What is your next goal, 3 games in the next 4 years?
coan.net: Good to see that I'm not the only one with that opinion, like in the other board I wrote my opinion/thoughts and don't want to repeat it over and over again like some others do I am here to play my games and not to write a book on the boards
Mélusine: I don't play in no team anymore Very surprising to have suddenly x-games to play with a time-respond I don't want (= like) or even with a red spot (see our other board-discussion LOL). So I stopped all my teams
Maybe to large, to many colours.... what else can I think... Is it an idea to send all the players here a message with that pic? So it's not necessary to upload it/put it on your profile Come on Bernice, be creative
I'm almost every day online, depending on my available time on the day and sometimes in the night. Sometimes I stay very short, sometimes for a long(er) time, but I can't remember BK was slow for the last several weeks. No problems at all If I understand well the EU wants to install a fast network all over Europe, if that's true and this dream comes to reality we've nothing to complain in a "few" years
Nothingness: I thought it's very hard to complain about games with a time-controll you can choose. But I must agree that you're very succesfull Play and think like AbigailII, if you know you haven't the time to play, don't play or play a game with a longer time-controll. And change your profile-settings to AUTOMATIC VACATION with that option you can't lose on time Good luck with your hard decision to join or not
Fencer: Sorry, I don't see that option, but that's the same as I mean But I see just 3 options But I don't want to be involved, I paid my membership and own a creditcard, no problems at all
Fencer: Well, what I mean is that people can book money straight to your bankaccount. As far as I can see it's now only possible by using another company, and often you pay (extra) money for that, but not always. I see 3 ways to pay money: 1. Wire transfer - only possible for people living in the Czech Republic. 2. MoneyBookers 3. Alertpay-account or creditcard
Now you can add a 4th way of payment: straight from my bank to your bankaccount and doing by myself. You can do it online and totally free in the EU. The only extra thing is that people have to know the IBAN code and SWIFT code of your bank, but you can add that in the description how to pay.
In this way you use no companies that can freeze your account, people must add their nickname, but they have to do that now too. Maybe you want a separate bankaccount for this payments, that's why I said to open an extra bankaccount, but that's up to you ofcourse and probably not necessary if you have already several as you say.
Stingette: Yes, I heard more people complaining about it But as we know/read is Paypal not an option. Not myself, I paid already in advance I paid a few weeks ago for an English member here and used my creditcard, no problem at all But not everyone like creditcards or owns one. Maybe it's an idea for Fencer to open a (separate or extra?) bankaccount?? I guess it's today very easy for everybody to send money online from your own bankaccount to another one anywhere in the world. I think it solves this problem for many people, or do I overlook something?
Pioneer54: I agree with all you too It looks like it's normal to use bad and rude language. It's a nice idea to have a site like this as a safe heaven, even it was not a family site, it is just the way how we treat our opponents/friends. If there's no one to play against this site is useless... So report, give warnings or delete those people
Bernice: Yes, I remember I was hopeless the first time I made that mistake... Go into the deleted message and in the upper right-corner is a button called "restore" use it
Pedro Martínez: I fear I can´t take this comment very serious. An account can never behave itself it´s always the person behind that is responsible and that has to accept the consequences. That means (in my opinion) if somebody is banned, the person is banned and all his connected accounts (old and new, if traceable) for now and in the future, untill the ban is over.
As far as I can see is the same startposition in all my games in the same tournament. That means that my black games are equal in the starting position as my opponents when they play black. The same appears in my white games lol A quick view in other games, in the same tournament, showed me exactly the same startingposition as well. I'm not sure the position is the same for the whole tournament, but I think yes In that case it's a fair tournament The tournament I joined is a small one (5 players), it makes me curious for a bigger tournaments, everybody in the same position?
