you could put the messageboard inside a different DIV or FRAME than where you're typing. Then you would need to keep that DIV up to date by either refreshing or timed database lookups and innerHTML writes.
When in a discussion board, is there a way to be notified of new posts? It would have to be done in such a way that it wouldn't lose your place on the page or lose what you are typing.
Sorry just being funny mangue. It is not for us to use or write in but rather a site for Fencer to let us know whats going on with the site as far as down time and or upgrades etc.
Agree. And to make it absolutely perfect, there could be the date the note was inserted. I sometimes happen to think the old notes are up to date and they confuse me - and I am only a pawn with 20 games. What if I was an 80-game-rook, then ?
Not a key feature - just for the comfort :-).
are we going to get a better notes feature with the 2.0 version for in game tactics, i currently don't use the feature as when i did i forgot which games i had planned out to that extent but if the notes were above the board above/below the oppositions converstaion place it would, i think, add to the effectiveness and would be a positive revision.
i know this was mentioned some time back but no decision seemed to arise.
A pgn-file can contain several games.Perhaps it can be possible in the new Brainking version to download not only one game in pgn-format,but also a bundle of games, for instance all games of a tournement,some games of one player or some games of a special period?
Combined ratings doesn't make much sense to me, since the games are different. Kind of like comparing Tiger Woods with Andre Agassi by combining the tennis and golf ratings?
I do like the idea of a multigame tournament though. It seems to me that you would need to play each rival in each game to make it fair.
of the selected games two ratings will be recorded then -
for every player - her/his 'established' ratings and the decathlon-game ratings.
they should start fixed at the beginning of a season at 1350.
e.g. if chess belongs to them, each chess game has to be calculated for
both tpes of ratings separately to avoid useamly advantage for specialists.
there will be a poll which games to select for a period of one ear.
then a scpecial decathlon rating is calculated cumulating in one
big tournament at the end of the period - not changing games,
but for each of the ten gametypes a signup will be required.
5er groups presumed, still to handle - 40 games. 2 days reflection time.
to make such a tournament attractive, brainking sponsors a prize.
onto that the person with the highest rating after a period will
be counted and credited as decathlon-season winner. :-)
Personnally I think there are too many single BKR`s. Perhaps would it makes sense to summarize BKR`s in groups for instance all Halma games,all Checkers,all Gammons ? In Chess I would like to see three groups: regular chess, chessvariations with regular board and set, and variants with bigger boards and additional pieces.
Taurec: pentathlons, decathlons and the like sould a good idea. I think it would be fun to have tournaments that change game for qualifiers as they progress.
Harley: I think you've missunderstood. The idea is an average rating calculated by the mean of all a players ratings. I think the average of all player's ratings over one game should be about the same regardless of the range, so lower rated players are needed to give other players high ratings.
may still be suspended for private games if wished so.
Should be no obstacle, thus - the ten games for a decathlon could
be determined by a poll and even promoted by annual price tourneys, then.
I have appalling ratings in some games, and I still continue to play them because I enjoy the game. But if I felt that my low rating was dragging down the whole of BrainKing I wouldn't enjoy play as much. And I'm sure the high rated players would feel quite frustrated at people like me holding down their favourite game rating!
I dont exactly object to the idea but it might cause ratings to be taken over seriously and considered competitively. There are two possible negative effects of such a tendency, first it could encourage various members to indulge in forms of rating manipulation, second it could discourage members from experimenting with "new" games for fear that poor results would adversely effect their general rating.
What would be the point of a general rating? The main point of ratings is to get a rough idea as to whether or not a prospective opponent is suited to one's own level and as such is game specific.
Would be a "Brainking BKR" a good idea for the new Brainking version?
It could be the average of all single BKR`s.
Btw I don`t like the word "Enemylist", better : "Ignorelist".
paying members shouldnt be restricted in the anount of moves a day , i do suggest that there could be a maximun abount of games though maybe 500 or there abouts , i wouldnt like to be limited on moves though
