BrainKing - Panouri de discuţii (Chess variants (10x8))

I will give you my thoughts at night........[European night:-)]

30. Octombrie 2004, 16:55:42

yes, no matter how hard we try to talk about goth here, it seems everyone gets distracted. Ok, I'll start: i thought i would lose or draw the endgame unless I could get to the king and push him around. The acceptance of the sac is forced but that doesn't make it good necessarily. I would appreciate it if any patent holders or others from the goth pantheon would care to comment!

Yes, very interesting. It would be nice to see it annotated. :)

BuilderQ,
did you look at the link redsales provided below?
an interesting game!

I had noticed that the BrainKing ratings on GothicChess.org had not been updated, but the current "Game of the Month" is September 2003, so at least it's more up to date than that. Surely some good games have been played since then?

That was one....but he threw in a few others as well. :-)

Subiectul: Re: Ed Trice

From what I understand bwild for the last 6 months Fencer has not exactly replied to Ed and this was his whole point!

Subiectul: Ed Trice

Grow up!
my gawd man...you act like a 10 year old child.
What does your messages to Fencer regarding ratings have to do with logging in to BrainKing?
I see your able to gain access to the site...that little whinny ploy didnt work,now you complain about unanswered messages regarding ratings....your last attempt to underhandedly remove Walter,not only didnt work...but got Thad removed for your trouble.
When will you learn?

Subiectul: Re: Not to bring up old stuff..

Ed has signed in today. There is no problem.

ScarletRose: I don't ignore any e-mails. It's nothing but a lie.

30. Octombrie 2004, 06:00:19

Fencer has stated he hasn't manipulated Ed's account at all, and the PW request E-mail account doesn't ignore, to my knowledge

30. Octombrie 2004, 05:54:56

ScarletRose

Subiectul: Not to bring up old stuff..

But Ed messaged me and mentioned something about him changin his password awhile back and you having his email on ignore, fencer.. Could this be a reason why he can't get on the site?

Just curious..

30. Octombrie 2004, 04:07:52

i don't see anything except the draw, nice game tho.

Hi Uwe, I was asking if the following sacrifice was sound or can it be refuted? Gothic Vortex poo-pooed it but it's been wrong before...

this move

Subiectul: Re:

that's my opinion too. unfortunately only perpetual check ... :-(

Subiectul: Re:

which question,redsales?

29. Octombrie 2004, 16:12:35

i had a pending question about a game for months that no one deigned to answer...so I have given up.

Subiectul: Gothic Chess Board

Could we please get back to discussing Gothic Chess Games;after all that is the reason for this board.

28. Octombrie 2004, 20:44:30

ok....its your fault! LOL;-)

28. Octombrie 2004, 20:35:59

Oops, I should also add that I didn't realise that redsales was already in a team!
And bwild, it was my fault, you don't expect discussion about cylinder chess on the gothic chess discussion board! My badder! LOL!

28. Octombrie 2004, 19:57:09

ooops....didnt put 2 and 2 together,harley! my bad.

28. Octombrie 2004, 19:51:40

bwild, I meant cylinder chess, thats what redsales was discussing! Wrong board, I know...!!

28. Octombrie 2004, 17:58:43

I got a message too...

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:47:54

Subiectul: Re:

thanks for the infos. as i said i could not verify the infos i get so i asked here. so all is ok and we can play and need not to discuss about that. thanks fencer!

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:46:41

Stevie

LMAO

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:41:14

Fencer

And my point of view is that Mr. Trice should spend less time on lawsuits and more time on trying to type correct passwords. This last attempt of getting some attention is really poor.

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:39:34

Fencer

Okay and now some information from me, just to prevent wrong speculations:

1) The account EdTrice is fully functional and no restrictions have been applied to it.
2) The BrainKing password system is still the same and was never changed. It works the same for everyone.

End of discussion.

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:39:25

Subiectul: Re: Re:

Fencer has never lied to me in the 2 years I've been a member here.
I asked him if Ed Trice was banned....he said no.
Ed is obviously not trying to get in.

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:33:01

Subiectul: Re:

I got the following information (which i can not verify): "Chess Federation has a newsletter you can get in your email. I think ChessCarpenter writes it. Anyway they mentioned the article on Chessville.com in this one but at the end was a message from Ed. He still can't sign on to BrainKing. This could be bad for all of us."

That's why I am asking.

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:29:15

the team tourny has started...4 teams made it so.

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:21:22

i'm in the only team signed up already, harley, sorry!

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:14:31

Ed should be able to log in...
if he times out,it'll be his own fault,and no one elses.

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:08:53

redsales, HOME is still looking for one player so we can join the team tourney.

28. Octombrie 2004, 16:08:22

Subiectul: is ed trice now able to login?

is ed trice now able to login? i am a little bit wondering whe he does not move in the tournament "Remembering Jestone" ...

28. Octombrie 2004, 12:51:41

Subiectul: Re:

maybe fencer should reduce the amount of players in each team for warped space. in my opinion 5 are too much, 4 are ok.
in the fact it was hard to get the 6 players for the team for the gothic team tournament. i wrote many messages ... in my opinion 4 players each team are enough.

28. Octombrie 2004, 12:47:19

i wish we could've played cylinder team..that one seems so fun. Like goth, it totally belittles knights.

28. Octombrie 2004, 11:25:35

I doubt it. Thats ok anyway, I advertised enough at HOME for players, people just aren't interested enough. I was only going to play myself to make up numbers, its not a tournamet I'd normally join.

28. Octombrie 2004, 11:23:46

Subiectul: Re:

ask fencer. maybe he can add a team into the running tournament, i do not know.

28. Octombrie 2004, 11:20:40

Oops! Ha ha when I checked yesterday it hadn't started! :o)

28. Octombrie 2004, 11:06:56

Subiectul: Re:

suppose it's too late now for joining the team tournament - it has just started!

28. Octombrie 2004, 10:56:54

HOME fellowship needs TWO more players to join in the team tournament.

27. Octombrie 2004, 03:05:49

26. Octombrie 2004, 22:49:56

Chessmaster1000

It happened to me before 4-5 days, but after 20 minutes i have entered without problems. I just hope this is the case for Ed, altough i'm afraid that............

26. Octombrie 2004, 22:47:47

Subiectul: Ed Trice

Ed sent me an email this morning around 10 O'Clock. He tried his password to
BrainKing 3 times and it is not working anymore. I just wanted to let you all know!

I agree on better but easier??? What difficulties do you find playing Bird Chess?
