To all those that entered.

Here follows a copy of the message that i`ve posted on my tournament page concerning EBT.

(NOTICE)4/11/03 Because of all the site problems i have decided to cancel this tournament with immediate effect. If players wish to continue with the tournament then please feel free but please be aware that NO PRIZE will now be offered since i intend to re-run the whole tournament at a later date when all the site faults are corrected. Sorry for the disappointment that this may cause.!

I have done this because of the difficulties that may arise from having moves "Rolled back" to the the earlier date with a good example being possible different results than they where originally.!

I will not be deleting the tournament, so please feel free to continue if you so wish.

Thanks.

Did i regret joining Bk.? - No

Looks like the positives out number the negatives by 10 to 1.

Strange things are happening... I have just a couple of minutes ago noiced the high memory rate that my Mozilla browser was using, so i switched back to IE6 & low & behold BK is back up to speed again.!!!

(Edit)
Me & my big mouth.!!! It`s going slow again.! LoL

That`s exactly what`s happening. Wish i knew the answer.:)

I`m using a PC & the same thing keeps happening to me also.! Clicking on the "Refresh" button works though.:)

It sounds to me like a corrupt cookie.! Have you tried deleting the BK ones & re-logging in.?

Thanks Jason for asking this question. It`s something that i was thinking about.!
With myself just being able to "Work" a PC, let have any knowledge of coding i have no idea if it`s at all feasible but i would hazzard a guess that it would involve re-coding the entire programming software.!
I would be interested to know from players with a background in programming what it would indeed require.:)

Let's lighten the mood! UN Inspectors!

Have you noticed anything fishy about the inspection teams who have arrived in Iraq? They're all men!* How in the name of the United Nations does anyone expect men to find Saddam's stash? We all know that men have a blind spot when it comes to finding things. For cryin' out loud! Men can't find the dirty clothes hamper. Men can't find the jar of jelly until it falls out of the cupboard and splatters on the floor.... and these are the people we have sent into Iraq to search for hidden weapons of mass destruction?
* I keep wondering why groups of mothers weren't sent in. Mothers can sniff out secrets quicker than a drug dog can find a gram of dope. Mothers can find gin bottles that dads have stashed in the attic beneath the rafters.* They can sniff out a diary two rooms and one floor away. They can tell when the lid of a cookie jar has been disturbed and notice when a quarter inch slice has been shaved off a chocolate cake.* A mother*can smell alcohol on your breath before you get your key in the front door and can smell cigarette smoke from a block away. By examining laundry, a mother knows more about their kids than Sherlock Holmes.** And if a mother wants an answer to question, she can read an offenders eyes quicker than a homicide detective.
* So... considering the value a mother could bring to an inspection team, why are we sending a bunch of old men who will rely on electronic equipment to scout out hidden threats?* My mother would walk in with a wooden soup spoon in one hand, grab Saddam by the ear, give it a good twist and snap, "Young man, do you* have any weapons of mass destruction?" And God help him if he tried to lie to her. She'd march him down the street to some secret bunker and shove his nose into a nuclear bomb and say, "Uh, huh, and what do you call this, mister?" Whap!* Thump! Whap! Whap! Whap! And she'd lay some stripes across his bare bottom with that soup spoon, then march him home in front of the whole of Baghdad.* He'd not only come clean and apologize for lying about it, he'd cut every lawn in Baghdad for free for the whole summer.
* Inspectors my eye... You want the job done? Call my mother.

After giving it some thought, my mother would probably say he is just going thru a faze, he will get over it....lolol

Thanks Summer Rain.:)

Sam,
Are you on the digital service which has had the CR3 update.?
I signed up just over a month ago while i was still using NTL. Maybe the problem is an incompatability between the CR2 browser & Swreg sites.!!!-

cariad.
Try & pronounce it after a few drinks down the local. LoL

LMAO.

Welcome to our "Little Corner" of the net Dakota Spring. Have fun. ☺

Thats correct.:)

RAOF.

Since your very busy working on all the requests, maybe there is some player who could code a BK version thats similler to the original but with enough changes to the rules & gameplay that it could legally be considered a game in its own right.!
Another option could be to offer the original Scrabble as a separate "Premium Service". If it proved popular, could well cover the cost of purchasing a licence.

Thank you.:)

Fencer in my anti backgammon game against Debi, i am getting the above "Internal server error"
Because of this i have not been able to find a game number for you.

Fencer. Theres is a problem in this game between PastaPatty & myself. #7 contains extra blots that shouldn't be there.!!! (All will become clear when you have some spare time to take a quick look) - Thanks.:)

Should free up some bandwidth too. :)

I'ii "second" that. :-)

Thanks Fencer.:)

Sorry i meant the Add to friends & Add to enemies options when loading your profile.:) - Looks like he speaks English, so that can't be why.! - I can't see him deliberatly ignoring u.:)

Maybe a daft question but are u sure he understands English.? - Also If he accidentally clicked Ignore instead of add to Friends, would he still see your invite.???

At least we know that the great Fencer will sort it out shortly, not in weeks like some other sites.:)

Your not alone, i can't either.!

The easy thing to do is - just stop visiting.!

Fencer. Its the only real option 4 me.! :)

How risky is this method.?

Once u have chosen your prefered game, u should see the following 3 pages (In order) ~ Define your opponent ~ Select game parameters ~ New game successfully created. Which is the last page that you see & are u receiving an error message after this.?

When u have chosen your game options & clicked send does a new page appear telling u that the game has been placed into the waiting room.? - If it does then click Main Page to see if its listed. Do u know that any games that u place in the Waiting room will not be visible to u when viewing the WR page.? :)

If u have at least 1 game slot free then u shouldn't have any problems.! - If u still have difficulties then let me know & i will try to see if it works 4 me.! :)

tiredguy u found the perfect solution.!!! Cheers m8 :)

I would be happy to help, if i can.:) - Thanks Fencer.

I checked to see if this was a "regional" NTL problem but unfortunately it does appear to be a incompatability issue with regards to our new software. (Liberate 1.2) - It would be good to know if any non updated users are experiencing these "glitches". ??? - Sorry i cannot be of more help. :( ---- (Edit)- If u r using settings set to row then try column. (It has worked 4 me)

I am a NTL user with the browser update. I have seen a few problems like graphics not loading fully. Too resolve this i had to fully exit the site & return via ntldtv.! Is this a similer problem to yours.?

Hi. Visited the site for the 1st time today & i must say that i'm extremely impressed by the layout & features. :)
