Purple: Because Brainking doesn't accept credit cards, but every other company does. That's why I gave Fencer's blog today a vote of negative one. The last time I tried to use paypal, I put in the wrong address by accident, then they made me wait five weeks before they would accept payment, just to confirm through visa that I was who I said I was.
im still involved in Inverleven we have a great chance going thou to next round if this happens even thou im not in that fellowship anymore would i still be playing on there team
It is stated that there are 5 options. As a webtv user I can't find one. PayPal is no good because it wont support webtv hyperlinks, same with Moneybrokers. The BK Representatives are gone, Credit Cards are no good and there is not even an addy to send cash. Fencer..why is is SO hard to give you money? LOL
tippyc: the xx will show the internal variable names instead of the real text
so the first few lines in the main menu on the left will show : Global_GameHeader Global_MainPageLink (28) Global_NewGameLink Global_WaitingGamesLink (2015)
while the 'send' button to send this message shows 'boards_send' and the button to send this edited message shows 'boards_editthispost'
the translators assign the real text to those keycodes .. the site shows the real text of the selected language to the user .. to make it more readable ;)
alanback: I didnt either. As a matter of fact, I switched to ru, and then xx to see what it would do and it went back to English. I agree with pauloaguia this it is most likely only seen by Translators. Just as there are a few things that I can see as a Global that others cannot.
alanback: It's a tool for translator to know the key for the texts they need to translate. You can emulate it by replacing the language part in the page URL (pt, en or whatever language) with xx
basplund: When you click "Key Mode" your default language is set to xx just like when you click on a flag. Since that setting is stored on the server, the next time you login you'll be in KeyMode. The sure way to get out of it is by clicking on a flag, to change your default language again.
Because of that, whenever I need to go to key mode, I simply type in the xx at the address bar, so it doesn't get saved, since in Simple Mode the flags are invisible.
Does anybody else have the same problem? Every time I'm logging into the site it switches to key mode, and I have to change the xx to se or en, or whatever language code. It's also independent of which browser I'm using. I've cleared the cash and all too.
nodnarbo: It might have to do with 3 of the games have under 4 moves - so may not "count" towards the rating - even though you have a rating. So probable just one of the "loop holes" in the coding. Probable will take a few more games before the graph shows up.
nodnarbo: yes, you can't see a graph before you have a ranking. It's the same reason why your ranking is hidden until after you have at least 5 games. If you could see the chart, then you'd know what it is...
I have a button to click to see my rating graph for Behemoth Chess but there is no graph. Does this have anything to do with the fact that I only have 4 completed games? I thought I'd post here because I wasn't sure if it was a bug or not
This is a general note: Always be careful to open links you don't know. Lawyers, estate agents and all sort of these peeps have programs at disposition to spy each of us.
Anyone had this happen to them? When you go to your dice poker game the green background area indicating what you need to roll is no longer green but is now a white background like the rest of the board. Don't know if there is something that has to be checked to make this feature work or if its a glitch. Any help would be appreciated.
Oceans Apart: If your opponent would be cheating in that way, you'll certainly notice it I am sure Fencer could go ahead an reverse games in which people would have used it - but that would be a lot of work to do, so it might be better to not frankly tell it on BK board.
Oceans Apart: Lets wait until Fencer has a chance to fix it. Most people are OK with it, and will only test it with unrated games and such - but there are a few on this site who will do anything to gain rating points - which some would call cheating, but they would probable say something like "Well the system allowed me to do it so it must be OK" or something like that. So sometimes it takes Fencer a little bit to find the problem and fix it.
Kunoichi_Power: Well I hope you are not referring to our game of Mancala, which you recon you outplayed me but I won. You should read the rules before you shout 'bug' or 'cheat'. I would explain to you in PM but you did not give me time to respond to your accusations before placing me on Block.
Kunoichi_Power: Are you certain it is a bug and not a different rule brainking uses compared to one you may know elsewhere. It would be a shock if there was any serious bug in any game here at present(maybe a small one not fixed yet), they have all been tested thoroughly. What type of game is it in ?
alanback: Considering the ration of smileys vs words some people use, yes, I do ignore people in real live who would act the same as they do here with smileys.
In fact, if people acted the same way outside of the web as they do here, half of them would be locked up.
