Onderwerp: Yet another "... and go to the next game..." request!
Since the "go to next game" dropdownlist is now customizable (yeeha!), and new options don't disturb everybody I think it is time for the "go to the next game with a friend" option :)

Mr. Shumway: Very true, so how about having a box that we could set the URL of, like in the context menus OR even linked to the context menu.

So we could move and goto a Fellowship DB, another board (Tournaments, computers whatever) in fact anywhere we choose to set the URL.

When you have a moment Fencer, could you add a little more info to the Fellowship page where the Team matches are displayed. It would be nice to see the result of the match without having to look at each one for a start.
It would also be VERY helpful if the Big Bosses of a Fellowship gets a message when any match finish so they can post it on the Fellowship DB and keep everyone informed of how the Teams are doing.
It would be nice if Brainking itself could display the results somewhere (Running: 55 Finished: 7 Won: 3 Draw: 0 Lost: 4), it does get hard sometime trying to keep up with alot of matches, makes it harder when we dont know if they have finished

Onderwerp: wiping a game history off one's records
Hasami Shogi is a game I regret even being rated for, as it is utterly biased towards the person who moves first. I would like to wipe off all records of a rated game type, with the caveat that I can never play it again on this site. Hasami shogi would be the one I would wipe off, as it is unfair.

Onderwerp: Ponds
How are the players sorted when they are listed on the pond before it starts? It is not a high priority request, but would it be possible to have it sorted by rating? Or is there an important reason for the way it is now?

Onderwerp: Re: wiping a game history off one's records
emmett: Sounds like a good idea to me. Shogi isn't my problem as much as Maharajah Chess. That game is pointless. Black has a forced win from move 1. The one game I played I had no opportunities to do anything. Considering the amount of people who only choose to play black and the winning percentages I am assuming everyone else notices it too. I am in full favor of dropping that game altogether.

Onderwerp: Re: Ponds
RagingSeas: Actually, before the pond starts, when it is still in sign ups, it is sorted by rating. Once the pond starts, and it is time for everyone to make their first bid, it is then sorted by player ID#. (So, it's basically ordered by how long you have been on the site). Not sure why it switches to that on Round 1.

RagingSeas: Shogi is great! I was talking about Hasami Shogi...but you are right about Maharajah Chess...

Joshi tm: thank you for the glimmer of hope concerning the possible changing of Hasami Shogi rules. However, after reading every entry on the Hasami Shogi discussion board it seems like this won't happen anytime soon.

I know its a minor item, but since everything is almost perfect here, there are only minor items left to fix ;)

When i scroll down my list of members in a fellowship and I get to the bottom and want to continue to the next page, I have to scroll back to the top again to change pages. It would be helpful to have the option to go to the next page at the bottom of the page as well as the top! Thank you!

The problem is you have to go to the profile to find there ID, cant it be displayed with there other info like when you hover over there piece beside there name (Knight, Rook etcc..), at the moment that shows, name, country, membership rank, and gender, why not ID number as well.

Now if you can solve my main gripe it would be nice LOL
Why can't we know how much time WE have left in Fischers clocks games when the game is with an opponent, without having to look at each game ?
I am getting really fed up with games timing out, it must be quite easy to show on the main page.

pauloaguia: I know lol, i think its alot more important than having ANOTHER backgammon game anyway.
What you meant to do if you know you only have a couple of hours left in a game, yet you cant move until your opponent sends it back to you.
So if they are clever and notice this, they wait till you go off line and send it back then, you time out
Something should be done really.

Onderwerp: Re:
MadMonkey: I learned this the hard way as well by entering a tournament and losing every game, despite the fact that i play every day.

Simple answer for me is to not use the fischer clock, or if you have to then at least add a day per move (which can make the game drag on).

Onderwerp: Re:

MadMonkey: I wasn't meaning how to find peeps ID Numbers.. what I was meaning.. was.. say I was invited to a fellowship.. I go to the main page.. and see that the list of members is about 5 pages full.. instead of having to sift through the 5 pages.. if I typed in a search box the name of the ID (s), I would be interested in finding.. it would show me instantly ..


Sometimes I either like to see if I have other friends in the FS.. or.. If I am avoiding someone due to their disrespect.. I would rather not join.

Onderwerp: Re:

Also, there are a lot of fellowships that list many games, but no one is actually on any of the teams. I wish the fellowships only listed games where there are people listed as having joined the teams involved.

Onderwerp: Re:
emmett & ScarletRose: They are in order of ID within the F/S. So if I knew that Emmett was 21467, I would look at the managers group until I found above and below that number and know that number is or isn't there. Then I would do the same in the players section.

I use Internet Explorer and I look at the status bar where the link is shown to see the ID number in the link.

I love the notes we have in each game, but can we make it so we have a note that stays with each specific person? (Could be in their profile and/or in a game with that person).

I see that Plaintiger (message 550525) wrote a similar message a while back...

Onderwerp: Re:
rednaz23: I would second that suggestion.

Of course a way around it is to add them to your friends list and add a note there, or to start a list on your notepad. Not the same, but might be helpful until (or if) Fencer does this suggestion.

Onderwerp: Re:
BIG BAD WOLF: That would be what I do now... I have an excel document with names, ID numbers, and information about why they are significant in one way or another.

However, that doesn't cut it when a name is what a person bases things on, and on BK it is quite easy to simply change your name. Does anyone take the time to look at a person's ID number, look it up, and verify that it is who you think it is? A note under their name in a game, their profile, or somehow under their name in messages of a DB, would be leaps and bounds above storing notes in the notepad or anywhere else.

I would be greatly in favor of such a feature.

Is there any way to make a link stay as it looks when you send it to the board?


I will try and explain what I mean, I wanted to post a Christmas card on a board and when I use rich text editor and insert the link I can see the card. But as soon as I click send it dissapears and all I see is HTML I know I can insert a link to a page but what if I just want to link to one image on one page?


Would it take much work to make it so that the image transfers? Or am I asking too much? And more importantly does anyone understand what I am trying to say lol!?

"Snoopy": Do you want to know a trick? Send a message with your move, and it won't play the game, because auto-pass will skip those games with a message for the player. I asked Hexkid about that. I don't like the thing either...

My other suggestion would be to play any game that is coming up... I see you have many many games that are going to be timing out in 5 hours! You need to play those! How many games have you lost from time outs???

Onderwerp: Re: go to same game type
"Snoopy": One thing that would help, would be that when one you find one of these games that keeps coming back to you quickly, click "Play Later". Then, if you have your list sorted in the order you want to play in, just use "Move and go to next game", and it will skip any game you have clicked "Play Later" on. Of course, it is still wherever it would have been on your list, and if you click on the specific game from the drop down menu (the 2nd "Move and go to" drop down menu), it will of course bring up that game. But if you use any of the options from the first drop down menu, it will skip it. I believe it stays that way for your whole current session. (Until you log off, or actually make a move in that game)

You probably already knew this, but I thought I would mention it, just in case.

I think all the games you have clicked 'play later' for, will show up again if you go back to the main page. At least it does for me!

Correction: It does work that way! I was incorrect. I did a test run...

"Snoopy", rod03801 & rednaz23: Until the BUG with offline players is fixed there is little point. I used to use it all the time to clear back logged games easier, but now so many people use 'cloak mode' its pointless having it. It picks up all 'cloaked' games as well

I don't know if this has been done yet, but if it hasn't, I think it would be a useful feature. What I would like is to be able to combine two different move and go tos: For example, I could combine Fischer game with next game. It would go to a Fischer game if I had one, but if I didn't, it would just go to the next game.

gambler104: We could write a php script for Fencer to see who is actively using the AutoPlayer so those people could be skiped in the move and play next offline option. Also Fencer can parse the user list on the main page for the list also.

Easiest thing to do though is always sort games based on the ones that will time out first. Autoplayed games will still go to the end of the list. Besides other then Ludo the autoplayer seldome plays on the same game more then a couple times in a row.

Mousetrap: unfortunetly it is a security risk for fencer to allow the use of the img tag. It is easy to imbede code into the tag and viruses and can be imbeded into images. Not to mention the images could be of questionable content that fencer would not displayed on his site.

Onderwerp: default greeting
A lot of players type in GL at the beginning of each game. I play fairly quickly and start many games each day... so I don't always type in a greeting, although I feel bad if I don't. Yet greetings like GL seem so perfunctory... are these people really wishing me luck? (I should win more if the luck was effectual)
Anyway, I request that, in our settings, we can type in a default greeting. That greeting can be automatically shown on the first move of any new game.

Onderwerp: Re: default greeting
emmett:  I thing "GL" is a ridiculous greeting.  Personally, I think if you don't have time to type a meaningful greeting, then it's better not to type any greeting at all.  And certainly not an automatic greeting in the second or subsequent game of a match. (As somebody remarked earlier, this is akin to shaking hands between each set of a tennis match!)
