aaru: That is an excellent request! We do it for all of the discussion boards! It should not be difficult at all to implement for tourneys.

Fencer?

Any word on the go to next tournament game?

I would love to have this option, which allows tournies in general to get over a little quicker if people use it. I play my tourney games prior to regular games, and would love this option to quickly get to the next one without looking for the star in the drop down box...

We have:

go to the tournament
go to the next game of this tournament
go to the next team match game

yet we are missing the general go to the next tournament game.

Is this a possibility?

Thanks!!!

This is just an idea...

Could you list the top visited public boards and then another one for the top visited fellowship boards?

That would be cool to see who tops the list!!

Here is another request...

Go to next tourney game



This is one I wish we had!!!

This request is if two members are friends of each other to be able to see what the other is doing instead of the cloak mode.

Meaning if you are not my friend, you will automatically see me in cloak mode, but if we are both friends of each other, then we will see what the other is doing, if that friend had that option turned to on.

I don't think this would be too difficult to program, but it is a minor thing anyways... I think it would be nice, I like going to my friends page and seeing if any are on my games, discussing something on a D.B., etc. That is, if they have they button turned to on...

If I have someone as a friend, and that person also has me as a friend, can we override the 'cloak mode' on the friends page? Better yet, we could set a button to do so in the settings page. I know it is a small thing, but it is sometimes nice to know what a friend is doing, that is, if they allow you to see 'through the cloak'!

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": 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???

"Snoopy": That one is there.

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.

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...

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.

Vikings: Really? Please enlighten me with these words of wisdom!

Is there a way to delete your "secondary" discussion boards in a fellowship?

On the individual game graphs for a player (example), can the dates on the bottom be changed from all numbers for the day/month/year to have the months have the actual name of the month?

The difference being between the U.S. and Europe, and how each of these areas see dates.

Walter Montego: I was hoping we can sort by state if they are in the United States...

On the note of state flags, I think that is an interesting idea, although where would the flag be put?

This would be for the U.S... but is there a way to sort players by state?

Is it possible to have polls in F/S's?

rod03801: I agree with Rod! That is an excellent suggestion! Wait... I've used my idea already... This one is Rod's idea!

Fencer: I appreciate that! This should add a little spice to every tourney!

WatfordFC: Well, thats sort of funny! I just picked a tourney I was in... I just think a DB on a page like that would be cool! It would give people a place to talk about their specific tourney. There is no such place now for anything. You could make it so that the DB is closed once the last game is completed. It could work and I personally would like to see it. Please Fencer? This would count as my one "request" that a black rook gets... No? Yes? MAYBE! All right!

On that note... I thought of this... "More like one in a million..." "One in a million... so you're telling me there's a chance!" What movie is that? LOL

How about a discussion board on a tourney page? For instance... a discussion board on a page like this.

Fencer: Is there a list of games that are in the works, a list of games we can't do, and/or a list that has been suggested but can't be implemented for whatever reason?

BBW: I simply mean that I have won X amount of connect6 tourneys, while entering X amount of connect6 tourneys. Seeing that on a persons profile would be nice... as well as on the tournaments page.

On the winners page could we list tournaments won as well s tournaments entered? That would be fairly easy I think to enter...

When I set a time for my tourney to start... it actually isn't the time that I am thinking, because it is set for BK time which is different than where I am. Can that be changed or at least noted on the tourney page where you set the tourney start date and time... that would help me instead of setting my time, and then going to edit it, and see it, and then edit again until I finally get it where I want... that would be awesome...

rod03801: Well, I feel that if I take someone out of the fellowship, they should be taken out of any future tourneys that haven't started or stairs that they are in. That's my feeling.

How about the language that a player is using in there profile. This is partially a problem because many people don't write in their profile to show me that they don't speak english. I have written messages to people, and received messages back saying "I no speak English" for example. This would be excellent to see, and I think it would be easy to implement!

Thanks!

Yes... I do know the concern of bilinguals... then they should write it in their profile!

mctrivia: He is a pawn, so therefore he needs to schedule his vacation. I agree with him in that it would be a nice addition to persons "my profile".

How about the ability to search by the different headings in the waiting room? That would be sweet... Search by player, by BKR rating!, by time limit... That would be a nice feature!

redfrog: I think the time limit change proposal should only be used for normal games. That is it. However, you could use it in tourneys to speed up games. The person who starts the tourney could select to set a maximum time limit. (Say three days) As long as the tourney players are at or under that time limit, no harm no foul! The point for this was in my previous post... to get your game in on your opponents waiting games list before their other opponents. Does that make sense?

Vikings: That is a good point! But, I have noticed waiting for games that some people don't play mine right away because I am at a 7 day waiting period, while most of the other people that are on and playing that opponent are using faster time limits. Since most people organize their main page by time left, you have to wait for your opponent to get through those other games before getting to your game! So if you can drop the time limit (under theres), you can get your game in before theres and done faster! :-)

redfrog: I do mean to have a time limit change approval sent to the other opponent for them to decide upon. The issue is sometimes both people want to go faster or both people want to go slower (Ex. vacations coming up, and don't want to use vacation days if possible). It is something that I have personally used at other sites, and know others that have as well. You set a high end time limit that people can't go over. That's pretty much it! I can't really see people complaining about this, either they use it or say no the proposal from their opponent! Most people will talk about it in the game before sending a time limit change proposal anyways!

SafariGal: They also have it at Itsyourturn!

How about game time limit change for games already in progress?

I like how people can advertise on this website, but one suggestion, make an english advertisement, on the english pages, czech advertisements on the czech pages, and so on. You will be able to allow more advertising to be run without the user losing any of his "market". This will allow multiple (I guess up to 15! Since there are 15 languages at BK!) advertisements to be run at one time, each in their own language they want. It makes no sense for me to see a Czech advertisement... I can't read Czech! An idea for Fencer!

If that is the case, than it should be much easier to create ads to a person specific info...

Pedro... - 200 wins huh?

Fencer: I don't know if you work with an "ad go-between site" (don't know the right term here), but if not, you could focus ads from certain languages or certain markets (countries or states), to certain people with those characteristics. This could focus your ads to the people, and could increase your funds through these ads. However, I doubt this will work! Because I am sure you probably work directly with some one else that does the ads automatically for you! But you could always send an idea like that to them, and intergrate your system with theirs... if that would be possible, you could both make more money... just an idea. Discard if it doesn't work. :-)

What about the game of Mill? I know of one other site that has it, www.pocket-monkey.com. It is a fun game, and it would fit well with the games that are already here.

I really like the fact that pending game invites are on the main page. Could it be expanded to include pending tournaments?

Thanks!
