Jules: Your pics have gone away too, eh? :/

Is there a slight problem with BK at the mo, or do I need to reset the PC?

harley: This will be your best ever. Such a tremendous subject. I cannot wait to see how she answers one question!

Theres about 12 hours left before I send NOT a floosie her interview! If there are any last minute questions, get them in now!

wellywales: I have no problem giving out a little bit of personal information. I'm in the age bracket 0 to 120. The statistical extrapolation is left as an exercise to the reader

wellywales:Us 60's Group hold the highest BKR's........Thats from my own private research though.

Binabik: On "Settings", under "Sort next game by " choose "Time of next move", "ascending".
See if that works best for you ;)

I use the "move and go to next player on line" option, but it seems that the same player always returns first on the list even though other players are on line too. Is there a way to play with everyone in turn who's on line?

Point taken, thanks

wellywales: No, because 1) this information is private, 2) nobody can assure people submit the correct info about their age.

Is there a way of telling how many people are in different age brackets and how well that bracket is doing ie 40 to 50's or 50 to 60's

Fencer: lol .. sorry, you are right .. i misread waynes post ... lets say its still early ;)

Hrqls: No, he cannot.

Fencer: you mean .. that if i block fencer, then i cant add fencer to my friends list, but fencer still can add me to his friends list ?

(i also read it as, when i block fencer, than fencer cant add me to his friends list)

wayney: Is my English really that bad? I thought it's obvious that "The player from this list cannot add you to their Friends list" means this restriction is applied to your blocked users, not you.

wayney: Lolol. Thanks to the W in your name (which gets sorted to the top), danoshootfirstaskquestionsnever will now get to see your name in his hidden-users list at the top of the discussion board!

danoschek has put me on his blocked user list. Even so, it allows me to add him to my friends list even though the instructions for blocked users state the following

Blocked users
The player from this list cannot

* invite you to a game,
* see you on Who is online page,
* send you a message,
* add you to their Friends list.

Has the ground rules change or is this a bug?

efenaye: not exactly ... automatic vacation only applies to games which would time out on that day

suppose you have 3 games running, all with 5 days per move

your opponent made his move in the game A and B at the 10th of that month, so they would time out on the 15th

your opponent made his move in game C on the 11th of that month, so it would time out on the 16th

you have automatic vacation enabled, and wont be online ... so on the 15th game A and B would time out .. due to automatic vacation they have 24 hours added, so they will now time out at the same time on the 16th

the game C has nothing added to it .. because it doesnt time out on the 15th

now you come online at the 16th and only have time to play 2 games .. but all 3 games will now time out on the 16th ... so on the 17th one game isnt moved in yet .. and it will cost you another vacation day

if you would have set the 16th to be a fixed vacation day .. then 1 day was added to all 3 games and you would only have to move game A and B on the 16th and could move in game C on the 17th .. which would have cost you only 1 vacation day

so when you know your days for sure ... use the fixed vacation days .. they will cost you less in the end ... use automatic vacation days only for emergencies or days you arent sure about

hmm .. i hope this makes sense :)

ScarletRose: ty much

efenaye: yes

i just want to be sure of something with the auto vacation. If I enable it, a game comes to timeout, my vacation automatically kicksin? and lasts for the entire day all games?

Binabik: yes we are wondering off topic..semi-sorta..sorry to wolfy.
so last comment on this re arrows: maybe scarletrose can let the amazons use pink whips

nobleheart: Hehehehe, but where are her arrows?

Please take the general chat over to the General Chat Board please.

Summertop: I know,I have no patience for intolerance

Binabik: if we want to perk up the amazon game.maybe we could make the pieces something like this:

rabbitoid: merci de l'endroit pour des franchophones

eagle eye: I think Dilbert has something there.

Those that think they know Everything....are annoying to those of us that really do.

BBW knows all ;) I didn't know that trick either!

Oh, oh! I didn't know that! Thanks a lot!
I've just tried it and it works. Thanks again!

IndiagonalJones: As a short cut, if you place your mouse over the "Rook" icon (or Knight or Pawn) next to a persons name, it will tell you where they are from.

Well, it just came to my mind that now with all those new adding of different languages on the site, it maybe useful to have the flag of the member or the individual who posts in the Discussion Boards (perhaps, beside his level of membership for exemple), what do you think ?

aha! that's so cool. (still think its on topic) lol.

Eriisa: no, I pointed out that there is one, now

rabbitoid: LOL, how is asking for a French DB off topic? (At least I think that's what you said. )

Just one short message in French. I know, I know, ...

Le nouveau forum de discussion BrainKing.com en Français est ici.

chupacabraVS2: Aye, I know all that stuff. I had a friend like that a long time ago. The best thing I did was walk away . . . . The LAUGHS section in that left-hand panel is good.

Czuch Chuckers: Money, membership? Spell? Sorry, I'm a bit confused. Are you talking about me?

Mind you, lolol, now that you mention pictures. I have to admit (and sorry if this causes offense, ;-)) but whenever I see your piccie it makes me think of Bill Clinton. You look very, er, presidential.

ScarletRose, Rose: Lolol. I thought it was a hoot as well. :-DD

chupacabraVS2: I'm too perfect for that group

playBunny: here is his group:
http://groups.msn.com/NARCISSISTICPERSONALITYDISORDER

playBunny: LOL... if you want to waste your money on a membership.... at least I can spell,(well in my profile anyway) and, well, you can already see my picture ;)~

Hi Fencer,

Harley and I discussed the need for improvement of the Amazons game: could you please add bows for the arrows, horses for the kings and sound effects of arrows flying and horses whinnying? Thank you..... :)
After that, the addition of concession stands, clowns and ladies who give their love tokens to their favorite king....

nobleheart: euro dollar?
