BIG BAD WOLF:
I knew it was to good to be true.LOL I want to use the board for something else. So guess I will have to keep the messages on and continue with the new subject. I can't delete all of them.
To many on there for that. Thanks for answering my question.

At least, shouldnt there be some way to resign the games in one turn each? As it is cirrently, I only lose 3 points to resign a game. At that rate it can take me a couple of months just to resign my way out of the tournament!

joshi tm: I signed up for this 21 point per game tournament when the rules allowed for the potential to get 21 or more points in one game. Once the rules of this game changed, the tournament should have been deleted and the started over. Its not fair when the parameters of the game change after someone signs up for it!

I want to get out of this tournament without losing my BKR for this game. Please fencer help me!?!?!?!?!

Pbarb2: You can't "delete" boards - but you can do what you said (change name of board to "." - so most will not find it.

To delete all messages, either click delete on all messages, Ask Fencer to do it for you, or probable the best - click "Edit" and change the read access to "Brain King" - that way not even you can see the messages in the board (so it looks like everything is gone)

Then just post in the description of the board "This board is closed." or something like that.

Getting rid of fellowship Board.
Go into the edit for that board and change the name to a period, then change who can read and post to king, all that will be left is a " . " that most people will never find and if they do they cannot go to the page anyway, but you know it is there in case you want to start it up again someday
I saved this in my notebook. I don't know where I got it.
I want to get rid of two boards and the messages. Where do you put king if that is what we are to do? On that part on who can read the board it has choices..no place to write anything.
Thanks for any help.

Rose: Close enough. Except that it's not the act of posting that counts but the act of opening the board page. You don't even have to post to be counted as a visitor, just open that page.
So, if someone posts a post just before midnight (server time), and then 100 people go there to read it the next day, it may become one of the most popular boards, even if no messages are posted for that whole day...

What counts is the number of different visitors to the board (readers), not the number of posters.

Gr☺uch☺: (*)The player who finishes at least 4 rated games of one kind (everybody who defines a new game can specify whether the game will be "rated" - the result will be calculated for BKR - or not), earns "provisional BKR" displayed by italic font (e.g. 1870). After finishing 25 rated games of one kind the provisional BKR changes to "established BKR" and is displayed by normal font (e.g. 1853). If you complete more games, your BKR is more accurate because is based on more results.

Ambigious Dice Chess...

Whats that? Each time, mark a field where to play, but you can only mark an ambigious field ( where 2 or more pieces can go), then randomize which piece to go.

Hieronymus: The idea of a new variant has been proved with Assimilation (was called Ataxx when released). When the Ataxx rule of a knight move was introduced Fencer released a new version called Ataxx, and the old version of Ataxx was called Assimilation.

As i mentioned, most people prefer the Assimilation version, so even by introducing the proper rules to a game like Ataxx, does not mean people will prefer that version, even if it is the proper one.
The games of Dice Chess is still new, so its a good time to do it.

As for explaining the rule difference, good question, i would ask BBW to write it, he is good with words

Ämne: Re: Dice Chess
MadMonkey: I have noticed the same annoying necessary to move the king. And just that detail is the reason for my voting to change the rules. A new variant will lead sooner or later to a situation, that the old variant wouldn't be played anymore.
Btw., how would you explain the differences between the two variants to the average player?

14. januari 2007, 11:51:33
MadMonkey 
Ämne: Re: Dice Chess
Hieronymus: Of course the probabilities would change as pieces are taken, as in Chess, if 2 Pawns are taken, odds are 6-1.

Its has to be new, i think the change is alot. I have played alot of games of it now, and one thing that crops up alot is having to move your King for no reason, just because the Kings pawn square is free for example. At least with an odds change, the chances of things like that happening are not evens LOL
You may say small, but there was only a small change in Ataxx & Assimilation, but from experience i know most people prefer Assimilation.

Ändrat av ghardh (14. januari 2007, 11:46:38)
MadMonkey: How should the probabilities be affected, if there are already pieces captured? I think, if there are e.g. 2 pawns captured, there should be a ratio of 6:1 instead of 8:1.
And why this should be a new game? The changes would be minor enough (most players wouldn't notice them), that they should affect the current version.

'Percentile Dice Chess' or just 'Percentile Chess' there you go Fencer, an instant new game, and you only have to change the code slightly

Ämne: Re: Dice Chess
joshi tm: Like you say, the odds would be normal Chess odds as such, as in which actual piece may move. In other words, if you had advanced your king pawn, the odds would would be 8-1 they you would have to move the King, where as now its evens.

The game would be totaly different, call 'Dice Chess the Revenge of the 16 sided percentile dice' or 'Percentile Dice Chess'

percentile, love that word danheg LOL
