BrainKing - Форумы (Feature requests)

It sure would be nice if invitations to a fellowship could be sent all at once to members of this site. Also messages or invitations to a game for all members of a fellowship at once.
I think something like this was mentioned before.
For a in house tournament add a invite all button.

Субъект: A real request.....

I haven't read this board in forever, so if this request has already been made, I second it LOL

It would really be nice that if there was a place on your friends list to add personal info such as name and bday or something like that.

If whale-song can sell maybe harley-song can too?

Compose a song about BrainKing and sell it on CD, Fencer. That will raise money for BK too!

Субъект: Re: Checkers

The fastest way to create graphics for checkers is to use an appropriate true type font. You don't need to be an artist to do this.

For example, this site has a font for checkers (costs 49$), as well as for other games like cards, shogi and chinese chess: http://www.partae.com/fonts/index.html

There could also exists free fonts with checker graphics somewhere else.

Субъект: Checkers

If you know a graphic artist who can make amazing checkers pieces and has a few hours to create em have him contact Fencer (remember there are 3 or 4 diff sizes that need to be made a queen an king for the diff versions too). A few of us have made sets and sent in but I dont think they were really up to par for the site.

good idea, doesn't sound like a big deal to change the graphics for checkers. Am I wrong about that?

I am sure this has been asked for before but will we ever get actual checker pieces and proper notations for people that dont understand them.

Субъект: Re: Battleboats Deluxe

Why would we need a bigger grid? I like the idea of the game, Brian. I think the onej grenv suggested might be a bit too much for BK, but it does sound like loads of fun! :)

Субъект: Re: Battleboats Deluxe

I have an electronic version that allows a special shot per ship that you still have, for instance the battleship hits 9 squares at once and the Sub shoots a torpedo along a row or column until it hits something. Some special shots can be used once per game as long as the ship is still alive, some can be used more than once. Also there are planes on the aircraft carrier that can be used for surveillance. I find it a much more interesting game than the standard one. :)

Субъект: Battleboats Deluxe

I know Fencer has a couple of battleboats variation on the to do list. However how about adding a 3rd variation to the list. I call it Battleboats Deluxe. The premise of this game is you get one shot per turn, but if you hit a ship with that one shot you get to shoot again until you miss. I play with a battery operated handheld battleship game while at break at work and this variation is on it. I think that would be neat variation and they do not have that IYT.

I see, thanks.

A wiki is a web page that any user can edit at any time (provided no one is currently editing it when you try to edit it, in which case you'd have to wait until they were done editing it).

16. Января 2004, 17:18:00

Thanks for posting that, what does it mean? (I'm ignorant of computer jargon.)

Субъект: Grenv

It's also a board game alternatively called "phutball". It requires a 19x15 point board and Fencer made some remark about limiting the size of halma that suggested to me that it might be impossible.

16. Января 2004, 17:00:05

Philosopher's football is a Monty Python sketch where famous philosopers try to figure out what to do for a long time before one of them gets the brilliant idea of kicking the ball into the goal.

Just for those that don't frequently watch british comedies.

16. Января 2004, 16:59:57

How about philosopher's maharajah chess with suicide punishable with a loss by defalcation? (What is "defalcation"? Sounds like the game turduckens would play.)

16. Января 2004, 16:52:57

Philosopher's cricket? Now that sounds like a slow game.

16. Января 2004, 16:15:07

nah, thats a fence isnt it?? LOL

I thought a wiki was something in Cricket, not football (or is that a wicket ??) LOL

16. Января 2004, 16:07:05

16. Января 2004, 16:02:54

Okay, I dont understand the connection with philosopher's football but.

Wiki is used on Goldtoken, symbols etc on discussion boards I think and messages

16. Января 2004, 15:35:41

What's a "wiki environment"?

Seems that's more suited to a wiki environment, if I have the right idea of what you mean?

16. Января 2004, 05:07:03

Philosopher's football would be a nice game to have at BrainKing.

Backoff - I suggested that awhile back (Idea from LittleGolem.net - where if a game is about to time out, a 1 day vacation day is taken instead).

Fencer at the time said it was a good idea, hopefully it made it to his list. :-)

Субъект: Re: Teams in fellowships

I agree Steve and also you have a problem with so many fellowships (over 90 i think) that members that are in lots can only join a limited ammount of teams. It will get to a point, as i think they just found in the zoo, where you can not get enough players for the more popular games(teams).
