rednaz23: in reply to #6 What about an 'other option' where poll takers can supply their own answer........ I Think The Object is too have the BB or LB of the poll To Supply the answer you may choose from.... if there was a other option to supply your own answer.i think that would be a way for some to put smart A answers

I love the polls feature; I think it is a great addition that will be used by the big bosses a lot!

However, there are a few things that are missing.

1. There is no link to get back to the polls page.
2. The description does not show up with the name of the poll where you can make your choice of answers.
3. Can a bar graph be added based on the numbers?
4. deadline is based on BK time; can it be based on the users time? (same for tournies in general)
5. Can smileys be enabled?
6. What about an 'other option' where poll takers can supply their own answer?


That's all I have for now. Hope this helps! I am looking forward to writing polls so I can improve my fellowship. I am sure many other BBs feel the same!

Thanks,

Phil (rednaz23)

Fencer: that would be nice, thank you!

saeco: Yes, I can delete the match if you want to.

is there any way do draw a 3 wins match? or any other way except resigning to end a 3 wins match if you realize you don't wanna play this game? we're trying to get rid of this game Checkers (saeco vs. Fraudkiller)

MadMonkey: I don't know. I didn't write that blog system.

Fencer: So what does Subscribe to an entry do ?

If it sends an email to the address it has, it will not work as its out of date, and there is no way to edit or change your details there

MadMonkey: Impossible.

Not a Feature Request (as Monkey has a hangover and can not think today lol), just a thought.
Is there any way to connect brainking.info to brainking.com, as in when you Subscribe to an entry, would it be possible to have a message sent to our Message box here ?

MissDelish: If you click on the link that rod gave you you will see a link towards the top that says "Add to favorite boards", if you click on that the board will appear on your main page

rod03801: thank you but the other board was the only one on my main page so I used it

MissDelish: Welcome to Brainking! I hope you like it here. For future reference, this board : General Chat is better for this sort of message.

hello. I only joined today and am just looking round. I love backgammon and dice games if anyone is interested.

MadMonkey: not a problem to me....I just refresh and it fixes itself LOL

Bernice: IE ........................ seems odd as it has i have never seen it with Firefox. I should report it to them and Mozilla can fix it (where as Microsoft would ignore you lol) if it is a problem

MadMonkey: no.......Im an IE fan much to "you know who's" disgust LOL

Bernice: Are you using Firefox 3.0 ??

I am wondering what is causing it as i have never seen it before until i started with FF 3.0

MadMonkey: I have seen that quite a few times but just thought it was my fault, speed, connection, computer again........

Andersp: Do you have this in your country ? not sure if its readily available in other countries thats why i ask .

Jason: Interesting

I just got THIS ERROR while playing a Backgammon Game

Just wondered as i never seen it before

MadMonkey: Yes, I have played with it a little.

Fencer: Just to add, Firefox 3.0 has an awesome new Bookmarking system, though take a bit to get used to, i will have a play. I even have the Brain (BrainKing logo one) on my Toolbar now, it just appeared lol, and it activates a drop box with all possible places to Bookmarks thing

Fencer: yep, seems fine and great that we can even download it from the Firefox Add-ons pages

(i bookmarked it for future reference lol)

MadMonkey: Can you try the new version?

anyone thinking of getting the new mobile broadband i can recomend it.i have gone with vodafone and to say it is only 7.2mbps (been told that i will most likely get around 2-5 untill next year when things get upgraded) i find it as fast as my home broadband which is weird ;)

MadMonkey: yes it is much faster, glad I changed. Thanks MM

MadMonkey: i am sold !!! Thanks
Install Install

MadMonkey: Of course it is not compatible because at the time of publishing the extension it was not possible to allow newer version than 3.0 beta 5. But I can change it now, hopefully.

Rose: Oh yes, agreed, though i have yet to get round everything i use lol

Lets just hope no MAJOR bugs are found

MadMonkey:I'm impressed with its loading speed. Also pdf's open much, much faster with the new FF. Also less wait time for pages to open from email ( clicking links in email used to take quite a few seconds, now they are nearly instant)
So far I like the latest version.

paully: I find it far faster than Firefox 2.0, and it is meant to be. Every Beta version i have tried is great. PLEASE remember, this may not be the final version released, it is a complete version of everything that has been developed and there may be bugs about. If worried, wait till the final release date which hopefully will be later this month

MadMonkey: disregarding the extensions, is the version 3 Beta better than 2 for web surfing?

hmmm found it

BrainKing Bookmarks 1.1.1 could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 3.0

Can someone give me the link for BrainKing bookmarks Extension please so i can load it onto Firefox 3.0

I hope developers hurry with compatible Extensions for Firefox 3.0, out of 29 i have installed only 4 will work with it

paully: Click "hide chat box" link below the chat box.

srnity: it looked like it was still active though so I assumed I was still logged in to the chat

paully: Can't you just click on anything (such as "Main page") and waalaa?

how to leave the chat room once in?

tonyh:  Perhaps. but unless it is a Java application or something other than HTML, it still reloads the entire page.  That site may be faster for you than this site for a number of reasons.

alanback: but does it have to be that way? On Gameknot, you can make your chess move and then press 'Submit' and it is much quicker.

tonyh:  Because it's not a backgammon board, it's a page of HTML, and every position has different source code.

Thanks. The game ID is 3116225. It was one of the first games I started on the site- I won't do it again!

Why does a Backgammon board reload every time one moves a piece?

Nilz: I can delete the game if you give me its ID.
However, that's why every no time control game invitation contains a warning in a bold red font.

Is there a way to force a win over an opponent in a game where no time control is used? I'm a brain pawn, so I only have 20 slots, so I need to get rid of this game, because my opponent doesn't visit the site any more. Is there any way to do that or do I have to resign?

MarkSteere: "Search in posts" just below the new post form?

Is there a feature to search the discussion forums? If not, can I suggest that?

Roberto Silva: true .. i visit brainking.nl from work with ie and from home with firefox

and occasionally i visit brainking.com as well (with either browser from either location)
