Bwild: LOL

Bernice: it has to be the servers...you know if it works in Prague, everything is cool.

beach: it annoys me because all other game sites I play on are super fast, why just this one?

Bernice: slow on my end too Bernice I gave up earlier

Bernice: rebooted 2x here in the last hour

Bernice: Not a problem from here.

is it only my side of the world or is this place pathetically slow all over?

Pedro Martínez: Thank you, interesting. There is predicted to be a peak in solar activity in 2012, the result of which (depending upon the polarity) could wipe out many communications. Maybe this is what MadMonkey is referring to, that possibly he will not be able to move on BK

rabbitoid: Yes, I saw the film. Not the best, but I have my snorkel and flippers ready :)

Would it be possible (well i know it is lol), if we are going to have a Team Challenge Waiting Room in the next version of BrainKing for a script to run every day or so to check players that have been entered in that Team.

Players entered in a Team in the waiting room, could of left the site, gone to a Pawn, changed fellowships, BUT they are still shown in that Team.

I think a script should run once a day, check all players still comply to the Rules (i.e. Still in that Fellowship, not a Pawn & played on the site recentley). If anything seems wrong, the Challenge should be deleted
There are numerous reasons why a player may no longer be able to play, the most annoying one is if they are no longer here on BrainKing.

The end of what?

Thanks coan

Can anyone find the proper BrainKing board on facebook ??

I can only find the defaced one

Hello everybody! If you like play othello, you can ask me play with you:)Best othello is 8x8, i think:)

Snoopy: Something similar happened to me. It had to do with a fellowship I deleted. (The Halma fellowship I had.) After I deleted it I was not able to join a 10x10 halma team. I haven't checked recently if I can join one yet.

coan.net: thanks Coan
Fencer has sorted it out now

Snoopy: When I go to another fellowship and see a team I already belong to another fellowship, it says I can't join.

Then right under the team, it tells me why - and that I'm still a member of another fellowship's team.

My only guess is that maybe you were part of a team of a fellowship which got deleted, and even though it no longer shows you part of a team, somewhere in the background it still has you attacked to the deleted fellowships team.

Hopefully Fencer will be able to help.

Snoopy: Its cause they don't want U on their teams. NO just kidding

coan.net: it says i cannot join the team

actually when ive just checked in the 3 fellowships im still in it says i cant join any of the triple dice poker teams

Fencer: It's New Year! You should celebrate, not play, damn it!

Snoopy: Does it show the (join) which does not work? If so, what does it say when you click join? (And if it just isn't doing anything, possible try to clear the browser cache and try again.)

Or does it say you cannot join?

i cannot join this fellowships THE INTERNATIONAL FRIENDS CLUB
triple dice poker team
im not on any team has far has i can see

Fencer: another 40 mins to New year here..lol
but thanks for fixing it

Snoopy: It's New Year! You should celebrate, not play, damn it!
It should be fixed, anyway.

but every time i click on a game its just goes to white page

Snoopy:  Yeah and I'd already used a few.  Must be Santa  :)

Artful Dodger: to funny has you only started with 45

Snoopy:  Vacation days left:47 - using the automatic vacation

Fencer, any idea what happened to this Tournameent Madhouse 2009 - December

I am sure all 3 were set to start either when full or the 31st Dec. Just got a message sying it has been deleted

Snoopy: hmmmmmm i have 4, YET we all know i had none...... Father Xmas must have been again.....bit late now though

just curious to know why i have 4 vacation days left again

i shouldnt have any has i used the last one up for tomorrow
other ppl seem to have gained extra to

not thats its a major problem has i know they get reset in a couple of days anyway

Merry Christmas to everyone on BK :))

MTC: Like the man says.this is a gamesite.Nothing more nothing lessMake your moves when you can.i wish all my fellow players a very merry christmas.

AbigailII: Secondary, tertiary and the 4th one too.

Fencer: Eh, no secondary/ternary DNS server? DNS is designed in such a way that DNS servers going down can hardly noticeable for clients.

Fencer: I couldn't get on earlier today either but that was because my wife hid my computer!

MadMonkey: For about 2 hours this morning, I couldn't access the site, using the regular brainking.com address. However, brainking.cz worked without any sign of trouble.

MadMonkey: Hey, take it easy man! It's just games, nothing serious, huh?

Furthermore, there was no downtime of the site itself and I saw about 100 online users all the time (today). Unfortunately we cannot be responsible for a DNS servers malfunction which caused a temporary non-existence of brainking.com domain in several parts of world. However, it was resolved in 3 or 4 hours, so it was really not a big issue.

Anyway, in case it happens again (which should not), try to use 81.91.83.6 instead of brainking.com. IP address should always work.

MadMonkey: it only matters if it happens in Prague

MadMonkey: I couldn't the site for a short time either. But I don't feel sorry for timed out games; don't let your clock run down that much while you've used all your vacation days.

I also couldn’t access this site for an hour or two this morning. Perhaps it only affected certain locations? The 3 of us reporting this are all from England.

MadMonkey: i had the same problem this morning no idea for how long but when i got in
i thought has noone else had mentioned it must of been a fault at my end

well, i have a question ?

I could not get on here today as i kept getting site not available (for just over an hour) !!

Once it got to 9.45 i had to go to a funeral, now i get back rom the funeral and there is no sign of anything being wrong, yet of course i have timed out on lots of games.

I can not beleive i have been the only one with problems.....all oother sites were fine, including brainking.info etc...

Not happy !!

Snoopy: Thanks Snoopy just didn't go down far enough when I posted. LOL
