Stevie: and then after it turns an hour,, he shows oonline again now... was it the site hourly catchup script that put it right?

29. Janeiro 2006, 21:03:57

Both of the above were copied at 20:00 and the profile information is clearly out of synch.

Assunto: Re:

harley: what ive seen is even after that Harley,, they will go to another board and post and still not show..

But anyways.. as soon as the person submits th epost, then surely at that point, it should then update the list?

29. Janeiro 2006, 17:01:57

harley

If they're writing a long post on a board, it might show them as being offline (they drop off the list) because they haven't changed a page for a while, they've been incative, even though they may be typing or doing something else. But as soon as they hit 'send' it should show them as being on that board again. I haven't noticed anything wrong with my friends list lately.

29. Janeiro 2006, 15:27:56

Assunto: Re:

Tuesday: I know, thats after about 10 or 15 minutes.. That should then correct if they come back on or move etc etc..

When it does this,, i will look at a new post on a board and find someone is online.. and th efriend list etc will still say they are no etc

29. Janeiro 2006, 14:16:43

Assunto: Re:

Fencer: yeah that page and the list on main page..
Youll think your friend has signed out or just shut window.. then they will post on a board fo rexample, and if you check th efriend page or list, they still say something they were doing a whiole ago, or the main page list still doesnt even show them online as if the 1o or 15 minutes time has passed that says they have been inactive..
Im not the only person who has had this

29. Janeiro 2006, 14:08:41

Assunto: Re:

Stevie: If you mean the Friends page, it is correct. It simply shows last actions of your friends, no matter when it happened.

29. Janeiro 2006, 14:03:47

Assunto: Re:

Fencer: the friends list is all out of sync a lot of times,, you can have someone post on a board etc and it will still be showing them as doing something 5, 10 , 12, 15 minutes ago sort of thing.. I havent noticed any common factor yet cos when it happens, its as if all the friends list freezes compared to what they are doing on the site.. it gets back into shape by itself.. i dont know if that corresponds with the hourly site cathup script etc that checks tournys ready to start etc etc

29. Janeiro 2006, 13:59:19

Assunto: Re:

Stevie: What is not working right?

29. Janeiro 2006, 13:56:14

so I take it that the fact the friends list isnt working right doesnt matter then?
Either that or Plaintiger has a knack of asking questions etc in a better way than some of us lol

Assunto: Re:

Tuesday: right - that's what i mean about being idle.

Fencer: cool. i like that. you really think of a lot of great little touches. :)

29. Janeiro 2006, 08:22:42

Assunto: Re:

plaintiger: Yes, it's exactly as you write.

29. Janeiro 2006, 04:58:57

plaintiger

i notice the order in which people appear in my "friends online" list changes from one page refresh to the next. this correlates with their activity, huh? people are moved to the top of the list every time they perform an action on the site?

it seems that way because people always seem to move to the bottom of the list just before they disappear, which i figure is the five minutes between the time they perform their last action and the time they show having logged off or gone idle.

You could get some tips at the chess variants board for anti-chess (among others);

and the chess discussion board;

Assunto: Re:

Tuesday: You can excel at anti-chess (and chess too, why not) but having not knowledge about chess is not a help for playing well antichess. There isn´t a logic relation between "i am bad at <gameX>" -> "i am good at "anti<gameX>" This implication is false (generally) It´s just a matter of practice. I´m sure you could play very well, play and learn.

Assunto: whats wrong with the friends list

for months now, ive noticed the friends list on main page etc, and friends list will show people doing something 10 minutes or so ago, or even show they are not online, and still says that even though they may have just posted on a board etc....
I did bring this up ages ago, but nowt was said.. others have noticed this recently also

estanto: Not a bad idea.

Assunto: Statistics

I've noticed, that the list of the best players regarding the sum of their established ratings is calculated including games in which the player has been inactive during the last 6 months.
Is that really intended? Wouldn't it be better to exclude such games (as done for the game specific lists of best players)?

I would also wonder, whether Pools should count for this list.

Assunto: Re: Fencer said it a few months ago

Walter Montego: Case in point: http://brainking.com/en/Tournaments?tri=63846#1

I've finished 8 of the 12 11 point matches with 7 day time control. But there are 2 in which my opponent and I have made only 11 or 12 moves in almost 3 months of play. At that rate, the first round will take 5 or 6 years.

Assunto: Re: How to use the match ID

Fencer: I think Marfitalu is requesting for the match games table to include the current game... maybe with something like "game in progress", instead of the winner name

25. Janeiro 2006, 10:17:10

Assunto: Re: How to use the match ID

Marfitalu: No, every game of a match contains links to all other games of the same match.
