Well, what I do is count the number of dice pips, needed to bear off a stone. So black has three stones on 3; therefore, a count of 9. Every stone on the bar I count as 25; and that's basically it. Would welcome other BG players to comment.
Fencer, please would you tell us how you calculate remaining squares. For example, in game 24026 (tonyh v MadMonkey), after move 14 pass, I reckon that Black's total = 105. Your total is 130.
for keeping us updated by your server updates on the main page. It really is helpful. Thanks for being so customer-oriented & -friendly!! And thanks again for this GREAT site :D It´s nice to see, that everytime I logon I see the number of registrations has been increased again.. lol Can be my efforts; I have told loads of friends about your intelligent(!) site!!! :D
God bless you,
~*Radiant 36:9*~
PS: talking about features -- Could you please allow non ASCII characters for the registered name.. I wanted to have this name: Radiant 36:9 But these ":" are not allowed... :-( Perhaps you might think of that? Thanks alot..
Fencer :-)
How does it choose what the next game u move on is ?? Mine seems to be which ever one has been waiting the longest. Is there any way to set it so it follows how our main list is set e.g. the shortest time next. :-)

I have enjoyed writing them very much, as I love to write and express a bit what my feelings are; or whatever I experience or see or hear.. I am very glad you are enjoying reading them :-)
I haven't played Dark Chess on this site, but what i've found with the notes is that they appear underneath the game board, and if you type in new notes, it adds them beneath the old notes (doesn't replace)
Fencer, in 2 of my games, my opponents pieces were not visible on squares where they should have been. I have gone back to those games, and they are now there. Unfortunately, too late in one.
I want to use Notes in my Dark Chess games, to keep a record of my opponents' pieces. But the notes seem to disappear on my next move. How do they work?
i typed a message to my opponent..in the right box...asking about her family...we are playing checkers.
She replied with " oh yes that was a stupid move"..when I checked to see what she was answering to there was a "?" i didnt type that.
Is this site so clever it can query an opponents move??????
I played an opponent close to my level or ( BkR let's say) and got 30 points upon winning. This was a normal game.So, had it been a 5 games match or wins or points,I would have gotten only 30 points for playing all 5 games versus playing normal games with the same opponent and getting 150???
Субъект: Re: 5 wins match, 5 points match, 5 games match .. question :)
Hi Elma, thanks for that. So, what happens, if I play a 5 wins match and I loose 1 - will BrainKing authomatically add another game to our lil´tourny, so I have the opportunity to get still 5 wins?? :-)
I recall
no sweet night as this one
sitting on the beach
and feeling the sultry wind
around my shoulders
through my hair (as if it were your fingers)
O, fair
fair young night
looking inside
your door, what brings thy dream
all for what it seem
and for what I believe
is a sudden feeling of quietness, relieve
and a relaxing sigh
after the rocking waves asked "why"..
and the red of the sun
slowly fades away
towards another day
on the other side of the world.
Субъект: Re: 5 wins match, 5 points match, 5 games match .. question :)
Hi Radiant, a 5 win match means that you are the winner after winning 5 matches, in a 5 point match you can also be te winner with 4 wins and 2 draws. In a 5 games match you are the winner if you have 3 points or more
Субъект: 5 wins match, 5 points match, 5 games match .. question :)
To anybody who might know the answer: what is the difference?? I keep reading the explanation which is added to these variations, but it still feels like they are all giving the same results.. I am sorry, perhaps I am asking a stupid question, but I am not a native English. Thanks!
lol I thought my oldtimers had kicked up and I missed something...Tried to go see but none of my opponents were on line.Another reason I should become a member.Thanks anyway guys
linda theres a drop down box under each game when ya move you can go to next game oe to main page or theres a box with someones name in it...click on that youll see all your games that its your turn to move just click on the game you want to go to....ok..
An easy solution would be click on move and go to main page.Scroll through the games and pick exactly the game or order you wish to play in. Not as quick but works. I do it when my sister plays cause she thinks I'm slow...:(
Nikki: The system sorts your games by the last move date and time when you use Move and Next. It would be a big performance overload if I calculate the real order using vacations, days off etc. like on the main page. I can do it later when we upgrade our hardware ;-)
Fencer Fencer, my dear Fencer; I have a query for you. Ok, after I move on a game, and I click the'go to next game' button, it takes me to a game often halfway down my list. Why? How does the system decide what game is next?
Also, would it be possible, to have an option to make the "next game" the one following the one you just moved on? That way, if one so chooses, the ones with the least time can be moved on as such. Thank you :):)
Please go to the website of the search engine: www.google.com Then type in any title of a song you want to find. Hopefully it will come up with several websites related with that what you are looking for. I haven´t checked it myself, but the google site I find VERY useful for all sorts of search requests :-)
Get over it. To decline is reason enough. It says I decline and it would mean I can't, I won't and the list can go on.If you play I thank you, if you decline, I play someone else.
One way of fixing this "no explanation of a decline" is for Fencer to make the message part of the decline compulsory. That way you can be rude, if you wish to and decline by just putting an "X".
I have been declined a few times, with no explanation and assume it is because I'm such a lousy player LOL...Hey!!! who really gives a hoot :)
With all respect, that's the whole point about a discussion. To take situations, issues etc, and discuss. If you notice, the player involved has not been "discussed" since. Thus, he bares no significance now. But, the "issue", is quite an important one as far as I'm concerned, and needs to be addressed sooner rather than later.
Basically, from experience, it is hard not to hold a grudge against those who ignore, and especially decline without reason, an invite.
Sorry if this offends, but I feel this should be "discussed" whilst this site is still in it's infancy.
To to cute eddie just find a date that says do me eddie or in your case with most moves,mooooove me baby...I like spaghetti better then I like,wel all the other noodles, how's that????
so im the most active player for a day..do i win a prize? or does thatshow i need to get a life? or spend less time online? if ya added up all the moves from all the game sites i proabably put thru 1000 moves a day...kinda like my last date i kept makin moves and still didnt get anywhere..of couyrse that might be the reason im home alone playin games too huh? hhmnnn....but i like it showin the moves neat feature.....
LMAO Stingeroni!! You expect ANYONE to believe you're rude or obnoxious?!! Nobody invites you cos they can see how many games you have running already!!
As for this invite, give it a rest! The poor guy didn't respond to an invite and its been the topic of conversation for two days!! I've played him and he's very nice polite, it was a mistake! And I for one am sick of hearing about it!! Its happened to a lot of us, me included. Dont worry about it, cancel the invite and dont send another. Simple! :o)
Im looking for american national athem . Is there a chance download it somewhere from internet ?
Im looking for instrumental and singing form :))
Any idea ?
Thanks :)
If I decline, I decline without a response. I'm a rude, obnoxious SOB, and I ain't about to change for anyone. However, I don't have to decline anymore, cuz NO ONE INVITES ME!!!
I think the point that was originally brought up though is that the invite was sent out, and not accepted OR declined. Nothing! Nada!
My response to that would be that perhaps the person is not up to playing at that particular time, but would like to hang onto the invite to accept a day or 2 later. I have done that at times.
