BIG BAD WOLF: Checkers 10x10 - not yet but will be added in the future. Backgammon - good idea.

Fencer: Beter - will not have tons of boards with 10 post for the past 2 years!

Question: Do we have any 10x10 Checker variant games?

Comment: Feel free to combine the Backgammon & Backgammon variants boards into just 1 board. All the gammon games are some-what similar, and will do fine as just 1 board for all gammon games. (in my opinion.)

Субъект: Re: ONE YEAR Rook Membership Contest......! Part-II

I know that Chessmaster1000's prize contest is over, but at least one person could not bring up the context page because it was hosted at angelfire, which is blocked by his country's government! I have obtained Chessmaster1000's permission and posted the same page on my site, http://www.thad.com/brainking/puzzle.html, for anyone who is still curious to see the questions.

Chessmaster - Bry is a global moderator, and as such was chosen to be interviewed. Its just a way of getting to know people here on BrainKing. Its fun, and everyone can get involved by sending in questions.

1. Февраля 2005, 00:11:12

Its not really censorship, Czuch. Just keeping boards in order, keeping information & questions in the right places. Its a time saver for people wanting to know about certain subjects. If you had a question about computers, imagine how frustrating it would be to scroll through dozens of feature requests or tournament news. Keeping things to the correct boards helps everyone.

Alas, censorship exists in all types of societies...

Just as I was expecting! a moderator finally came up. OK harley. no more talk on this from me

31. Января 2005, 22:44:46

This might be more appropriate on the computer board? Someone there may have a better idea why its blocked.

Субъект: Re: Re: The word Angel itself..

ScarletRose: Sorry. I was offline when you posted this. Yes, could be because of that.

Whatever they're using it's quite strong in blocking the sites. I don't know weather it is sensitive to words related to sexual cases or just knows what sites are related to that. I suppose it must be the first one since it's hard to feed the system with ALL site names related to sexuality.

bry, the last few days my game moves take ages, this is especially irritating in backgammon.. sometimes 2-3 mins, per roll

Is BK running slow for anyone else? in between making moves on games?

Actually angelfire is a set of "free websites" which anyone can go and set up a website for free - so you can guess many "bad" sites have been made in the past - which is why I would guess someone in Iran just blocked "all angelfire" sites to be safe.

31. Января 2005, 20:47:24

Субъект: Re:

Antje: LOl! don't be too picky. Yes, that's it and I still can't see the site. There must be something there that the blocking system in Iran has discovered is not 'good' for me to see!

In anycase, thanks for the reply. I bet right now a moderator comes and says : OFF TOPIC

if its angelfire you mean, Reza, its about photo sites and blog builders. nothing pornographic or chess related that i saw!

here's the link http://angelfire.lycos.com/

31. Января 2005, 19:09:10

haha! the most interesting part is that when I click on the link for the questions, I go to no sites!

the browser shows a windows saying : Dear customer, accessing that site is impossible.

Is that site related to sexual or pornographic things?

those sites are blocked in Iran.
Can someone tell me besides chess, what other topics are available on that site named 'anglefire'

But at least this way it gives everyone the option and oppurtunity.. for those that wouldn't normally look at the chess db's. The prize may be an incentive for some to get interested in it, and as pafl said, it was only one post

31. Января 2005, 17:11:15

furbster

well, i agree with chuck, as it is highly unlikely that anyone will get this correct who does not play chess.
therefore i can see why it maybe a better idea to post it in teh chess secion of discussion boards

Субъект: Re: ONE YEAR Rook Membership Contest......! Part-II

Czuch Chuckers:
1) Similarly you could say not all feature requests are related to BK as they deal with various games that we do not even know
2) It is only Chessmaster's business what kind of contest he offers
3) The contest is a good thing for the site and the players too, perhaps and opportunity to start studying gothic chess for some and to have the biggest impact it should be posted here not only because
4) it is just ONE post

I had to respond because I think your critique is very unfair.
