Thank you Antje for your help.It will described the two possiblities to play chess (or other games)in the internet (My impression is that to play chess in the internet and special at a chessserver is not prevalent in my (only?) country):
1."real-time",an good example is USCL, or 2."turn-based" with Brainking as an example,where you can play chess and chessvariants too.
In the second part there will described the "Three Checks Chess" as an nice chessvariant with some games (The most chessplayers know only the standard chess and not the varants).Perhaps I will continue to describe the other variants too..

I have published something about Brainking in the German Chess magazin "Rochade Europa":
http://de.geocities.com/caissus2000/RochadeArt.JPG (but its in German)

I do the same,Rogue Lion.

Because I can see, if they play now the game with me or with other people.This feature lets develope a special face-to-face feeling.I am sure the most players like it.

But no,I think this is a special nice Brainking feature!:)

I am more and more curious about Brainking 2.0 :)

..it would be interesting too,how many moves all players have made since the beginning of "Brainking" :)

First thing ,which is necessary is to have a commandment,that allows people to play only with one account. Without such a commandment there is no cheating!
Perhaps it could be a button at the registration?But then players,who are cheating with several accounts should be excluded from playing.

Wieso yehes? :)

Good idea from Noho,an example at an other server:
there are "Qualifications" necessary.
Q1= one game must be finished
Q2 = Q1 + a period of two months since first login , player can play special tournements.
after one special tournement he gets Q3 and can play all tournements.

Thank you Felix for the correction and sorry my English is not good.
I always hoped that you can understand me anyhow.
But I see the next time we will communicate in German :)

It is the right of every player to play so long he wants,for instance if he wants learn.
But not every player wants to be a teacher in every of his games.
So it is the player`s right too for the next game to choose another opponent.
As a result to different levels play not often together.

Sure noho,you should not resign if you see a chance of a draw..
That`s why a good chessplayer knows when it`s time..:)

A good chessplayer knows when it is time to resign...

But its curious,that sometimes a new player, who has only played 4 games against players with bad or without rating,suddenly has one of the best ratings.

No, with four mouses you have to use the feet too!

Hi Harley,perhaps you can try it with two mouses in both hands in the next time:)?

BBW: My membership for the next half year is Brainknight indeed, but look the number of my games 10,12 or 15 (possible are 50). But you have over 400...
Unlimited offers are always bad.Today one player has 200 games next day 400 games and next week with his brother,his friend his neighbour 800 or 1000 games all on the same account.
That is impossible and cannot go !
And to the argument the price is already to high: I know there are everywhere people who want all for free,the best service and the best technic! This is impossible!
But for Brainking counts the maxim too: It must be nice a n d economical,or it will disappear!
To the Brainpawns:Okay they could delete their accounts and make a new,okay they can economize 6 Dollar in the year but they lose their ratings and other.
Okay if they want to economize,they should economize. I think the greater number of pawns would pay this little amount.
If only the half of the pawns pay the small amount then you have in one year the money for a better server.

It cannot be that there are 6000 user the most play free and pay nothing and some other "Brainrooks" are paying their amount and some of them play so many games 200-400 so that the server is collapsing!
For a player with 200-400 games the brainrook amount is to less!

It cannot be that there is no money for a better server, no money for the programmer who works hard for a nice site and earns nothing for his work!
But he has to make a reset every one or two hours round about the clock because we all can play and play and play....!
And the best is all are crazy and happy if there are players with hundreds or thousands of games!

Have you all considered that fencer at one day says "Good bye",finishs Brainking and then our nice site is away forever!

That`s why I suggest to reform the structure of the membership:

1.Brainpawn: As before but only free for one year!
2.Brainpawn: After one year he pays 6 Dollars in the year, that is really not much!
3.Brainknight: As before
4.Brainrook: As before , but limitation 150 Games

That is a lot of games but if somebody wants to play more games he should buy a second account!

Let us all play 2000 games,and all play 385 games simultaneously!
Perhaps is it good for the overburdens server?
If Eddie can increase the number of synchronous games to 500?
Fencer is sure very glad!
Who has the record?

I think the timeconrol of the most tournements is with 5 or 7 day much to long.Best is 2 or 3 days!
By the way there are players with more than 100 games simultaneously,some have over 200 or 250 games!
Nobody can tell me that you can play good with so many games.
There should be a limit for the maximal number of games (100) beacause it is an impertinence for all opponents.
In addition it could help the overburdens server.

I saw Amber last Sunday in Mannheim,Germany in our park. She was very hurry and she told me:Don`t worry,I`m happy!

Okay let us consider how the Brainking-community can help itself! And therefor we have to help fencer to get a better server! How can we realize a special budget and how can we bring all users of Brainking to give only a little bit money for this purpose?
My suggestion: Fencer creates a special cash box only for this purpose and every user will be asked to give money (one time,1-10 Dollar, or more if he want).
Fencer informs us how much is in the cash box and names the users who gave money.
Because this is a very important fact there is a headline in the mainpage of Brainking and so let us look if we get the money together.

Hello , Brainking.com is a very good place for playing correpondencechess, -variants and other boardgames.But I have two criticpoints : The variants "Maharadja Chess"(Good for Black) and "Horde Chess"(Good for White) are not balanced.

And I would be glad if I could play some of my favourite variants with the technics of Brainking.com.Some of them are "Januschess", "Omegachess", Great Chess.Is tis possible?
You can see the pictures,the "Presets" and the rules on my page http://schach.kreuzeruwe.de
