Board for everybody who is interested in BrainKing itself, its structure, features and future.
If you experience connection or speed problems with BrainKing, please visit Host Tracker and check "BrainKing.com" accessibility from various sites around the world. It may answer whether an issue is caused by BrainKing itself or your local network (or ISP provider).
Pythagoras: Well, you may be right but only from a long term point of view. For example, I need to purchase a new application server (or two to make a fail-safe cluster). The estimated price is, say, 3000 Euro. With 10 new Black Rooks I could buy it immediately and the site would be faster and much more reliable immediately as well (which is an undoubtful benefit for everyone and also brings a possibility to launch new services and enhancements without worrying about the site performance). With standard membership payments, I would have to wait for several years to accomplish the same deal. Yes, the final sum would be higher but the faster availability of the resources is more important. Anyway, any help and support is always welcome, of course.
Walter Montego: That's how it worked here (one player clockwise and the other one counterclockwise). After protests and complaits of the majority of backgammon players on BK I decided to make it as it is now. From my point of view, I see no difference if the pieces move one way on another - it's just another view of the same position, nothing else.
furbster: I am afraid it would disprove the very meaning of that. The black rook simply means "yes, I really believe BrainKing will be here after 10 years and I believe it NOW, without waiting for every year and paying just a part of it".
pauloaguia: There seems to be an issue with dollar signs in Java regular expression engine. I'll find some workaround. Or forbid to create user names with dollar signs.
I've read several reports about copy'n'paste not working when the new context menu feature is enabled.
However, I've just tried ctrl-c and ctrl-v and it works with no problems. I've tested it on Firefox and Internet Explorer.
If it still doesn't work for someone, please send me your browser type, OS and such parameters.
If the smiley window stopped working for you, try to reload this page by crtl-f5. The script was slightly changed and it is possible that the old version is still being loaded from your browser's cache.
WizardII: When Fisher's Clock is used, it's not important if you moved yesterday or not. You must make all moves of the game in 2 days in total and you receive only 3 hours as a bonus after each move.
Walter Montego: Fencer is here and doing a job that really matters, which cannot be said about the recent "discussion" on this board.
BrainKing has nothing to do with Yahoo groups or similar things and I am already too tired to read everything what was posted here. I will not tolerate any more flamewars and offtopics here. This is a message to everyone.
