Webtv is not very versatile, its only purpose is for online use. There are a few tricks you can do like cut and paste, and playing with htmls, and you can use a printer, but other than that you can't do the things that can be done with a computer. It's basically an internet box that uses a TV screen for a monitor, but a regular monitor can be used as well. I suspect the reason I have no trouble with a wide screen effect is because of using the TV screen instead of a regular monitor, but there may be some other reason for that too. I don't have very high screen resolution, but I do have a large screen for viewing.
The problem was most likely that you were viewing a page stored in cache - either you'd have to delete the temporary internet files (i'm not sure how to do that on WebTV) or force it to load from the source and not from your cache (again, i don't know how to do that on WebTV).
Nope, I'm still stuck on an earlier page. I turned the set off for awhile, then on again and came back. Then I logged off and back on again. Main page is still showing what I saw this morning. I can get to games and private messages from other pages, so I can wait to see if this glitch goes away or not.
Something odd has happened with my main page, it seems to be stuck at where I was this morning. I can only get to games from some other page and by clicking on the red number next to "Main page". At the Main page there two games waiting for me to move, but I've already moved on one of them and I won the other game...but they still appear on my main page waiting for a move, and none of my other games will show up. Also, I won't know if I have any new private messages unless I go to some other page. Is this just a short term effect of the new download?
I thought of that awhile back, and I think that if there was an option of "invite players to a tournament" it would end up getting abused.
I can just see some of the tournament creators going down the list of ranked users and inviting EVERY person for each tournament - I'll probable end up with spam for each tournament (which there is a lot if you include Fellowship tournament).
Of course for the private tournaments Fencer is working on, it would need to be able to invite people - but for normal tournament, i'm not sure if I would like that option. :-)
Seems to be fine, here is one of my games:
[Event "Casual Game"]
[Site "BrainKing.com (Prague, Czech Republic)"]
[Date "2003.03.19"]
[Round "?"]
[White "rip55"]
[Black "unacanta"]
[Result "*"]
Currently you can see this statistics at the opponent's profile after clicking on "show games with this player only". But you are right that it would be nice to see it in games as well. I will add it to the list.
Now that we'll have played each other a fair number of times, I'd like to see the results against an opponent displayed alongside a current game. So if I am playing Atomic Chess v Whisperz, I'd like to see how I've done against him, gruesome though it is.
Yes, nice addition to the system. Most welcome. I talked to Nodakindy, he said he had mentioned the format was missing some of the standard tags. It is not a big deal, they can be edited in but thanks for adding them when you get it done.

Hi Fencer, the pgn-Format in regular chessgames works correctly and I can play these games for instance with the windboard freeware utility.Naturally we can not play with this utility games on a 10x8 board (only standard chess). Perhaps there is a computerfreak who can produces a pgn-player for 10x8 boards? Best would be with the Gothic and Janus pieces.
If i see on my favourite list that there are new messages i click there then i dont want 90% of the messages to be childish crap ...understand now?...so as Kevin said, couldnt this "ignoring" be included in the "enemy" function??
If you don't want to read messages from some boards, simply don't click on their names. Or do I miss something? What should be the real effect of the Ignore function?
Would it be possible to add an Ignore/mute-function. Some messageboards are too annoying so if we could click "Ignore" or "Mute" on the names we dont want to read messages from would be VERY NICE.
My web site has some very good examples on how to use PGN files.
There are examples of both single and several files merged together.

Since we have the PGN option, I will be adding a BrainKing link in my site. It will hold tournaments and games I and others with the 65thsquare club play
Nodakindy has a great site also, check it out.

There are a couple ways, you can use NotePad to merge PGN files.
Just load the first file in, then open the others, cut and paste back to the original.
I use WinBoard and FileMate, both will allow you to merge PGN files. I like FileMate the best, seems to be the most versitle.
I'm not sure then, if it did that. It shouldn't have counted the match for your rating. It might have something to do with that it was a 2-game match. You might be best to ask Fencer about it. :-)
Ok, I was wondering about the rated games under 4 moves total that don't count towards ratings. I have two of these Game ID: 1800, 1802 In one I timed out before moving, in the other it was a 2 game match, he moved I timed out, then I timed out the other so that's only 3 moves. So both shouldn't have counted for ratings. However, one (1800) did because I recieved a 4iar rating after 4 games but it should've been 5 if the game was properly not counted. Yet in Linetris (1802) I completed 4 games and was still unrated, meaning the system worked there and did not count 1802 for ratings.
Oops, I deleted my message by mistake! I was replying to BBW's message, saying I dont think anyone would be bothered about playing an extra section, and maybe the tournaments running now should be left as they are, and the new ones can start with the bug removed.
I don't think it's a big deal with how the tournaments are now - the winners will just have to play an extra "section" - which to me is not a big deal.
I'm not sure if I should cancel all already started games. But maybe I am wrong, what do you think? Should the affected tournaments be recreated after the bug is fixed?
The same has happened at HOME fellowship (3 in one section, 4 in the other) and I hadn't even noticed!
What will happen when the bug is fixed Fencer? Will the two sections merge together and we will get new games?
The problem is that the "maximum number of players per section" is set to 8. I would have thought 1 section with 6 people would have been created for this tournament, or am I just missing something???
I never heard about tournament games counting regardless, but i guess it could be.
Yes, a "rated" game will not be rated if it is deleted, timed-out, etc after less than 2 moves from each player (4 moves total). This also allows players to delete a game they didn't want to play without being penalized. (For example, if someone accepted their Open Invitation whom they didn't want to play).
You only need 4 games to have a provisional rating. You are still unrated in Linetris because your lost game was timed-out with less than 4 moves total, so it was not counted towards your rating. Similar in your line4 match.
