However the bottom line is this idea got some positive response the last time I brought it up. I think it would be feasible to write a program to make it work whether you use what we refer to as autopass or some other program that allows for my idea to work.

lol grenv. However this version of boats I present is a fun version. For it to work I believe the autopass feature has to implemented into the program unless someone has a way around it.

Bonus Battleboats. However to make it work autopass would have to be scripted into the game program. Basically you would keep your turn as long as you hit a ship. One shot per turn as in regular boats. How it would work is you take a shot and submit the move. If it is a hit, then the autopass would activate and allow to take another turn. If it is a miss then control passes to your opponent. To prevent cheating, you would not know the result until you submit the move. I made this suggestion when BK2.0 started up on request board and battleboats board. The only thing I can see Fencer from doing it is then he has to accept Autopass for the game to work and then he would get bombarded for the feature in other games as well.

since brainking is big into rating numbers and rating positions and other stats. Here is a simple one for the profile or personal main page. Since ratings flucuate frequently, how about keeping track of a player's highest BKR number in a game that way we can always know what the highest all-time rating we attained in that game. You could do a similar thing for rating position. You will always then know the highest position you attained in that particular game, not just the current one.

Mine has been that way for a while too grenv. But most of my opponents are 2000 or higher too. I am 2249 currently.

I think we all as responsible people should refrain from bad language because we realize there are kids that access the site. Of course no one is perfect and slips up now and then. Overall the language here is quite tame as opposed to other places on internet. Besides here we dont promote real things that are harmful to kids such as porn. I dont think banning someone from a board for a bad word now and then is necessary. However if there is someone who steadily using bad language they should be kept from the board. Personally I feel if someone has to use foul language all the time it speaks very poorly of them and reduces my consideration of what they have to say.

Hey Stevie at least you can be proven innocent so Fencer cant ban you. So now I say who is corrupt enough to conspire to fix ratings?? I still need a name. LOL

Based on your ratings Stevie,it wasnt you involved. LOL. j/k.

and not because you just beat me in dark battleboats. I am outraged that you would suggest that Princess kammy would donate bkr to another player. Those 1057 losses were hard fought losses and you know it. Who and I ask who could she be conspiring to help boost their bkr? All I want to know is who is behind that kind of corruption!!!! LOL

I have played my share of wins style matches and if there is a draw like in reversi where you have the same number of squares at the end. The game ends and no points are rewarded. It is treated as a nongame though the result of the game is shown. In points or #of games match draws are given .5 points toward the final score of the match.

LOL. I wasnt making the request to start that debate over again. However unless there is another way around it you would have to have autopass to make my game idea work. Of course built in would be a message to your opponent on the game noting what took place so they wouldnt get confused.

Well if you install the auto-pass feature you could do it. If you get a hit the autopass would kick in and you would get to shoot again. If not it would be your opponents turn. Just a another reason to have the autopass feature as an option but for my game idea it would be mandatory feature built in.

BBW: I will post it in their too.

I made this request a few months back but now BK2.0 is in place I wish to make it again. There is one more battleboats variant I would like to see. I will call it Battleboats Bonus. It is played like regular battleboats but the bonus is if you make a hit on your opponent you get to keep your turn until you miss. Actually you could make this a 2 variant request. You could play it with a dark version too if you would like. I havent seen this version anywhere else so this could be exclusive to the Brainking lineup of games. I have a handheld battleship game and this game variant is on it. I like this version and I think others would like it too.

They have introduced ladders at ItsYourTurn.com. Which again brings up a question here, when is BrainKing going to try this? Ladders are also used at Yahoo! games for its paying members. Should we have ladders here for everyone or just the paying members??

I know Fencer has a couple of battleboats variation on the to do list. However how about adding a 3rd variation to the list. I call it Battleboats Deluxe. The premise of this game is you get one shot per turn, but if you hit a ship with that one shot you get to shoot again until you miss. I play with a battery operated handheld battleship game while at break at work and this variation is on it. I think that would be neat variation and they do not have that IYT.
