How about that idea, just like all our other games?
When all the players make their moves in a round, the Pond gets ready for the next round.

Hear hear. Splendid idea! :)

fencer said that ponds dont count against your games, but it says that i have 0 empty slots. im limited to i think 50 games but have only 12 startd, but im in over 50 ponds. My number should say 38 games able to be played but it says 0 empty slots remaining. WHY?

Andre Faria: Can you please explain to me how did you know tonyh would bet 3378?

http://brainking.com/cz/Pond?g=454

22. mei 2005, 02:30:33

Just looking at that pond, and what I would guess is this.

Round before - Pedro had an auto-bid of 3377

If some people see this, they may take a chance and bid 3378 in the hopes that Pedro will still have the 3377 auto-bid.

And I know I've done this, I will be 2 above that (3379) to also be above the person who took a chance and bid 1 above.

Plus as a side note, the very big "very first pond" is now down to 39 players! The end is getting closer!

On the page linked below, could you add a column for "Number of Ponds Won" next to "online status" (or replacing online status?

Ponds Rating List

I know this is available on another page, but it would make better reading to be on that page too.

What's the easiest way to see a list of ponds that are still going where I have fallen in already?

Onderwerp: Re:

grenv: There isnt one ;)

23. mei 2005, 01:16:51

Well, there are some but definitely not easy ones...
E.g. go to your profile, get a list of your running ponds and check each of them whether you're still out of the pond or already in it...[

]...or the other way around, and write down the list you're asking for...:)

BIG BAD WOLF: Running ponds here seems to be only the ones I'm still alive in, not the ones I have fallen in and yet the pond is not finished yet.

23. mei 2005, 03:35:06

Onderwerp: Re: Re:

grenv: Hum... looks like you are correct. Running shows only what you are left in. Finished only shows the ponds that are completly complete.

So what you need to do is take the ponds in your finished, add those to the ponds in you running - then find out what is missing when you show the "all" and there - you can find out what ponds you have fallen into but the ponds are not complete!

.... and you did not think there was a way! :-)

23. mei 2005, 03:37:26

Onderwerp: Re: Re:

BIG BAD WOLF: That is too time consuming to be worth it, therefore there effectively is no way.

Fencer, how about adding the unfinished ponds we've fallen in to the list of running ponds?
