currylms: You can set the Gray at the Settings page.

currylms: I like the green. It helps me to calm down.

joshi tm: Instead of that, a team BKR will be used.

mctrivia: Actually, it would not be impossible if it's only a master-slave architecture because it could work even with a data copy delay. However, to host two full featured BrainKings would require a full two-ways fast Europe-America replication and that, uh, that would be a real problem. For example, consider a situation when a user in Europe accepts a public invitation but another user in USA accepts the same invitation at the same time. So the European server sends a message "hey, mark this invitation as accepted!" and, in a few seconds, it receives a message "it is already accepted by another player!". Bang! A replication conflict.

mctrivia: You read my mind. But the database replication is the main problem. Unless we want two isolated BrainKings which could share the list of users but not the table of games and moves.

Eriisa: Go to the Bug Tracker page, change the Status to New, click Show and use RSS URL of the resulting page. You will make a feed of reports with the New status only. Or is it not what you want?

mctrivia: I don't use this feed so that might be the reason why I haven't noticed that yet. I'll check it.

MadMonkey: Huh?

Puckish: I love it when someone spreads catastrophic prophecies about BrainKing and mentions some kind of a majority. It always makes my day. It would be too boring to have only users with a positive thinking, we need unsatisfied members as well. A balance means a stability.

nametoolongtofi: You should be able to disable them at the Settings page but I might have forgotten about some of them. Can you give me the pages where you cannot turn them off?

Andersp:

mctrivia: Yes, I can have a look at it. It it's really necessary.

wetware:

Puckish:

rednaz23: Yes, it could be done. But imagine the huge amount of data to transfer to the browser if someone starts 1000 games and only a half of them contains a last move message.

coan.net:

coan.net: Very well. And if you fix transparent areas at Swedish and Bulgarian frame (there are some gray points just below the poster), I will add it.

Czuch: We are a multilingual site, I prefer not to add smileys containing English text.

mctrivia: I've been thinking about that a year ago. But:
1) Not all browsers support Ajax and the noscript solution would only make the page code longer.
2) If someone updates only a part of the page (e.g. game board section) and does it continuously for, say, an hour, he would not be aware of other important information like the number of new messages etc.
3) JavaScript based code is much more error prone than a simple HTML, so it would take more time to make it stable. Not to mention other server side changes which are necessary to make it work anyway.

AbigailII: Ponds can be defined with 1 hour per move.
Besides that, do you have a better idea?

coan.net: That's a good idea.

Czuch: No idea.

rednaz23: That's a good idea. But I have to create a table of all languages (and flags to represent them) first which is not an easy work to do.

gborland: No, it should not. You must place the referral link to your own pages elsewhere. It has nothing to do with emails.

MadMonkey: Actually, you are lucky because you usually request simple things. It is already done.

MadMonkey: Three times is not enough. Try to request once more.

MadMonkey: Try it.

Andersp: Nothing is "sure", except death and taxes.

Andersp: Hmmm. Maybe.

"Snoopy": I've added it 20 minutes ago.

pauloaguia: Not yet. It needs a more sophisticated system first.

pauloaguia: Please check if it is working.

rednaz23: Because there was a request 4 year ago to make this rule.

Jules: How about this one?

Summertop: I am concerned but I have also no reason to believe there is any malicious software on BrainKing. As you have said, several users have had "suspect" problems but it's not proven that our site is responsible for that. And using a good anti-spyware software is a good practice because there are many sites where a spyware distribution is really proven.

jadarite: I don't think there would be a serious threat if we use swf banners. Who doesn't like them, can install an ad blocker and never would be bothered with them anymore.

jadarite: If it is true, how come that I wasn't redirected anywhere although I always see all banner ads for testing purposes?

pauloaguia: All banners are hosted on BrainKing and nobody can change them after they are published.

coan.net: Of course not. I don't see any bad banners here. Furthermore, I have three computers and none of them is infected by any spyware or adware and all of them are used to test BrainKing pages (which means that people who observe "something strange" are obviously doing something wrong).

jadarite: But I don't want to add a ton of game related features. It's too boring job. I like changes and experiments.

Chaosu: What kind of feature request is that?

coan.net: Is it better now?

diogenysos: I don't get the point about the points.

emmett: Yes and I say it again.

MadMonkey: 1) But you still have an option to offer a double. 2) Why don't you click on a placed piece to remove it?

Didier69: That's right. If it were easy, I would have done it myself a long time ago.

Didier69: http://brainking.info/archives/289-BrainKing-gadgets.html

emmett: How would the graph values be calculated? The normal graphs form nodes on BKR changes but there are no "average changes".

AbigailII: I never said I don't want to make word games. On the contrary, it would be nice to have 20 versions of some nice word game. The only problem is to get good word lists for all supported languages.

grenv: Does it mean that the reminder didn't show up?
Probably the last thing I forgot to add to the new design.
