Then what, one can't help wondering, is the function of the Server News board, other than to store stuff one scrolled out of the way of games in which one was unable to decide a move?
I'm taking you off hide and removing your posts. I will be happy to bring up your problem on the Mod Squad board for you. Maybe they will have an answer. Please don't post here again on the subject.
When does the round the pond game start?
Also, did read the rules, mostly about scoring, but doesnt say anything about the actual game? What exactly is it?
to quit sending me empty messages ... although it appears
to be representing the value of her default messages well
(i.e. empty even if, at a time, containing words) it's irritating. ~*~
do we get 30 new vacation days every jan. 1st, and if you have days left over at the end of this month, do they carry over and then added to your 30 new days?
thx.
Thank you harley. I just went there and was able to activate vacation days for next Tuesday and Wednesday. Ah, the joys of hearings.
As I've gleaned from the discussion about the use of vacation days, if I'm able to play those days, it'll be OK to do so. Sounds like a good way of doing of to me.
Where are they located? I might have need of such a feature the next time I travel. I timed out two games awhile back because Vasailia's library wasn't open on Friday and by the time I got to Bakersfield the games had timed out.
Maybe, you should be prevented from playing on a vaction day. That way you can't be selective on what games to play. With a comming off vaction day that allows you to play that day but then you can't take vacation afterwords.
I personally don't care much about it, I rarely look at games where someone else it going to move. If they are slow, I rarely notice.
:) i use notes for that .. but i have to admit its tough in espionage .. also because there is a small bug when you go back in the history .. but still this use of auto vacation could be what people call abuse as its lagging the game
Thanks Fencer for the talk to Thad.I,am not one for posting took over Purple music made it double and i guess there is a few peaple got upset.sorry AL or MASTERMIND.
Truthfully? Because they are Espionage games and I need to go thru and figure out what pieces my opponents have left and what have been captured. I wish there were a captured pieces section, but this is opening up another can of worms that probably belongs on Feature Requests or the Espionage board.
the question is why you are using vacation days to prevent those games to time out while you are playing other games .. why dont you play the most urgent ones first ?
right now i think the abusers are just using their left overs before the year ends .. what about limiting the number of auto vacation days to 5 per month as well ? that would make it a max of 2 times (i think)
Hrlqs: He cannot do it more than 6 times, considering the max number of vacation days :-) And the perfect solution does not exist, of course. We are just trying to find the best approximation.
(although i dont see the problem of slowed down games for rooks, but thats probably because i can hardly fit my games in my spare time nowadays, this site is much too addicting :))
5 days should be enough ... i guess i do have to set some fixed vacation days then ... which i was hoping to be done automatically as well (yep i am lazy :))
(hmm could it be done so that only on (team) tournaments it is limited to 5 days ?)
what if someone uses 5 auto vacation days, then makes 1 move, and uses 5 auto vacation days again (plus of course the max of time per move)
Some are simply bothered by games that take 'too long'. I personally am bothered when the game moves so slowly that I can't recall what my plan of attack was when I made my last move, especially when the game is at a critical stage. I'm sure other rooks can add more reasons.
Hrqls: What makes players bothered is probably the fact that such situations slow down the affected tournaments and team tournaments. But, as I already said, all possible negative effects should be eliminated by applying a restriction of using auto-vacation in max. 5 days in a row. I think it's a sufficient time to make an arrangement even if you are in a hospital. Just ask a friend or a relative to send me an e-mail with your situation.
