Subiectul: not that it matters, to me at least

but my drawn games was something like 42..46..or something (which in itself is a phurphy-because of the big break down in Sept2003)...hehehe it is now 1...

Im not overly BKR orientated like some but it makes you wonder how TRUE are the other results...i lose probably 66% to 75% of my games so the rest look about right, but has anyone else noticed their games numbers have changed....
OH and before the crash last year I had won 2 tournaments, but I cant remember nor do I care, so that isnt a problem here...
Just in case this is a glitch (as opposed to a bug)

GI :) about 6 months ago or there abouts I brought this same thing up with a person that is know to us all, every game he had won on default...the default being the other side conceded defeat.

I was told that as he was in control of the game it was natural for the other side to resign.

I resign games of backgammon but only when the other side has all his within striking distance of home:(...it dont do me much good tho LOLOL

But for some one clever enough to have multiple nics (and there are a lot)they can show themselves as a super-power when in fact they are like a grain of sand in a big desert.

I have a problem, on my main page, where on the left hand side it actually says main page, the number 2 (in red) is permanently showing, even though I have no games, tourney etc outstanding, is anyone else having the same problem.

Red number indicators at the menu column.
Occurence: Everywhere.
Source: BrainKing.com application.
Status: Fix in progress.
Description: Under some circumstances, a table of counters is not updated properly after a user makes a move, deletes a private message etc. The result is that the numbers indicating a number of new messages, games, invitations etc. are not always accurate.
How to fix it: To find a bug in the code and fix it.
Suggested workaround: Don't rely on the red numbers until this bug is fixed.

2. Iulie 2004, 13:43:18

Im off to work now, have fun folks and a great weekend :)

2. Iulie 2004, 13:45:17

harley

LOL I like 'Fencer answers', they're more human than the memorised standard answers you usually get from any customer services place!

2. Iulie 2004, 13:47:47

We know Harley :)

2. Iulie 2004, 13:47:48

cariad

Not the dreaded 'Fencer answer'! People are never the same again. *faints*

2. Iulie 2004, 13:56:39

more water thrown on cariad!

2. Iulie 2004, 14:04:59

Andersp: Do you work as a director, owner, architect, programmer, database engineer, UI designer, customer service, QA engineer, financial manager etc. at once? And, furthermore, along with your "normal" full-time job?
Try it and then we can discuss "Fencer answers".

LMAO@Jason

2. Iulie 2004, 14:09:57

Fencer...the more "jobs" you have the more important to learn politeness :) Im sure you want to keep your customers?

2. Iulie 2004, 14:13:13

Andersp: Of course. Have you ever noticed that the majority of customers never post the same questions again and again?

2. Iulie 2004, 14:14:44

I've noticed a lot :)

2. Iulie 2004, 14:17:23

Then you don't miss the point :-)

2. Iulie 2004, 14:18:21

Nope..no points missed.

2. Iulie 2004, 14:19:43

ok i asked yesterday about my backgammon team totally dissapearing in my fellowhip (not just the players but the section that holds them). no one else seems to have had this problem and no one possibly knew why . but could the reason be because i have joined another fellowships team and enterd the team tournament ? (which i presume would be to stop me playing against my own fellowships team and fixing games ) or am i wrong lol, that was the only reason i could come up with .

2. Iulie 2004, 14:23:55

MadMonkey

I did the same Jason. That was down to me though. I accidently clicked the box to Remove the team, but that was when we were still using BK 1.0, and i had a copy of the members on BK 2.0 lol :o)

2. Iulie 2004, 14:27:12

well im not sure who was in my team ,but if its my fault i got them thrown off (because i joined another fellowships team)then i would like to say sorry to them . but i didnt know it would happen like that ;(

2. Iulie 2004, 14:30:44

cariad

I'm sure there are lots of backgammon players willing to join your team for the team tourney, Jason.

2. Iulie 2004, 14:33:05

Jason: It could be a negative effect of the database conversion. Very unlikely, though.

2. Iulie 2004, 14:34:02

hehe ,thats why i joined brys lol. no seriosly (sp) because im big boss and enterd another fellowships team im not too sure that i can have a team in my fellowship ? just waiting for fencer to clarify things for me .

2. Iulie 2004, 14:36:36

i had a team untill bry enterd the team tournament then it dissapeard sometime after .

one of the main reasons im asking for is im not sure what teams im in and want to make sure that i can fully support my fellowship in some of the teams once they are in full swing .

2. Iulie 2004, 14:56:33

coan.net

Well I just created a Spider Line4 team in one of my fellowships, then joined another team in a different fellowship, and the original team stayed there. (But did not enter a team tournament.)

Question: Does a captain of a team have the option to remove a team from a fellowship? (All teams I'm captain of I'm also the BIG BOSS, so I'm not sure.)

2. Iulie 2004, 15:04:30

No, only Big Boss can remove teams.

Well Mr. Loupe, there is this link:

Me versus the Deep Thought chess computer

Back in 1989 I beat the World Computer Chess Champion in a game that lasted only 20 moves.

Then there is this link:

Ed beats Chinook, World Champion Checker Computer

That was on October 21, 1996.

So, I guess I don't need you to investigate me.

Gothic, maybe I'm missing something, but who said anything about investigating you other then yourself? Am I missing a post or something?
