Şubat 2010, 05:27:36 36 new members so far today....over half havent logged in,most will never play a game,some go straight to the poker tables. watch the player list just a couple times a week. theres no doubt in my mind that the majority of these new members are add ons to existing accts. since pawns are only allowed 20 games...I can see this as a way to give someone more games,but......theres always those that create these add on accts for ulterior motives, that many of us that have been here awhile know. then you have these globs that dont care or even read the stuff they're prompted into moderating,to compound issues. just my 2 cents. 19. Şubat 2010, 03:23:02 Since this thread is certain to lead to a place that the Main Moderator has asked that it not go, it will be removed. I suggest that the 2 interested parties carry on their conversation in p.m.'s if they so wish 18. Şubat 2010, 23:54:16 Konu: Re: Bwild: thank you for your helpful direction. 16. Şubat 2010, 03:01:12 Hi all. Having wandered about the site and seen how everything is moderated here, I'd like to know why the poker tables are not. I was put off playing by the language used there. 14. Şubat 2010, 20:27:30 Konu: Re: Stopped rod03801: thanks rod! 14. Şubat 2010, 20:04:43 Konu: Re: alilsassy: Same to you! 14. Şubat 2010, 20:03:55 Konu: Stopped  As the main mod had requested a certain topic stop, and it didn't, all posts from that point that continued, have been deleted. If it continues any further, the offending people will be banned from posting to this board. Thank you. 14. Şubat 2010, 18:52:16  Happy Valentine's Day 13. Şubat 2010, 13:53:23 Konu: Re: multi nicks Hrqls: Good job! :)) 13. Şubat 2010, 13:00:59 Konu: multi nicks thats the last post about named multi nicks on this board .. further posts about multi nicks with names in it will be deleted posts like this can easily lead to a hunt for the named persons even when they might not be a multi nick .... this board is not for starting a lynch party when you think someone is using multiple accounts ... report them to the management ... 12. Şubat 2010, 17:41:08 Konu: Re:  MadMonkey:  Too bad there's no counter to see how many times they enter. ;)12. Şubat 2010, 17:34:50 Konu: Re:  Artful Dodger: I have given 2 Boards the name . now (as in 'dot') lol and set the read & write access level to Kings only. So Fencer & Liquid can go have fun if they wish, but i will need to approve there posts   12. Şubat 2010, 17:32:02 Konu: Re:pillar of the"community Tuesday:Well that couldn't be me. Most days I qualify for village idiot. 12. Şubat 2010, 17:28:54 Konu: Re: multinic 68 Bernice:I have some theories. Very strange coincidences. 12. Şubat 2010, 17:27:46 Konu: Re: MadMonkey: I changed the name of mine to . And then that's all that showed ;) I think I set it to no access or whatever that setting is. You could just change the name to "This board isn't really here." 12. Şubat 2010, 17:07:13 Konu: Re: Snoopy (12. Şubat 2010, 17:08:49) tarafından düzenlendi  Tuesday: IMO muti nicks have been going on since the very early days of this site its nothing new but surely bickering about it on the main BK board should not be allowed its surely not giving a good impression to any new comers to the site i find it very off putting  12. Şubat 2010, 08:40:01 Konu: Re: Bernice: Caught on to what? :)) 12. Şubat 2010, 07:52:37 Konu: Re: Games statistics wetware: "Dice games require less thinking?" you are right for some dice games. most dice games have limited move options though, far less options than chess .. its also tougher to think ahead and build a plan with dice games .. at least thats beyond my capabilities .. i can 'feel' a few moves ahead with a probability that it might happen with dice games, but with a chess type (or pente or espionage) i can plan a bit more ahead which takes time so dice games dont require less thinking .. but they certainly require less time per move (for me) 12. Şubat 2010, 02:19:04 Konu: Re: Games statistics  SL-Mark: "Being beaten in a dice game, well it was simply that the die favoured the other player! i.e. luck." "Beaten in a game of skill, however, then the loser can only critique themselves." Those observations are a good start. Being beaten in a dice game, one can all too easily conclude that the loss was purely a matter of bad luck, and that there was nothing in one's own play that deserved criticism. Not all dice games are created equal. Have you ever noticed that the frequency of claims of "unfair dice" tends to be inversely proportional to players' strength? "Dice games require less thinking?" Who would say such a thing? On the contrary (at least in some dice games), in addition to strategic considerations, one must also calculate various probabilities. 12. Şubat 2010, 00:55:34  I would have thought that the powers that be (we all know how clever they are) would have caught onto this one.... nicmulti_68 (Nic) 11. Şubat 2010, 17:42:19 Konu: Re: Games statistics  Bwild: No, I cam up with with Frog Finder - can find some of the details & "history" of the game here: http://www.coan.net/sweeper.html 11. Şubat 2010, 17:28:46 Konu: Re: Snoopy & coan.net : Thanks, thought i was going mad I will do something like that, but i think being able to delete a Board would be better  11. Şubat 2010, 17:22:25 Konu: Re: MadMonkey: I haven't done it (or tested it) - but believe the BIG BOSS can change the posting "Mode" or privledge level of someone to post on the board and make it almost impossible for anyone to post on that board. Change the board name to "." so it's hard to see also. ... of course that is also one of the big things Fencer has talked about changing for the new 3.0 Brainking it sounds like... 11. Şubat 2010, 15:19:54 Konu: Re: MadMonkey: not that i know off you can always put the board to something that is very hard to click on which i did 11. Şubat 2010, 15:17:48 Am i missing something  You can delete a Fellowship should you wish to (well Big Boss's can), but is there away to delete a Discussion Board from a Fellowship ?  11. Şubat 2010, 11:59:01 Konu: Re: Games statistics AbigailII: i mean that i can join more dice games .. because it will take me less time to make my moves ... suppose i joined 100 dice games and its my turn in all those games .. then it takes me a lot less time to make all my moves before i timeout compared to 100 chess games so only considering the spare time i have i can easier join 100 dice games than 100 chess games 11. Şubat 2010, 10:45:17 Konu: Re: Games statistics Hrqls: dice games require less thinking .. therefore its easier to make a quick move in those games and more of those games can be played at once If your opponent is online, yes. But I think most of the "duration" of a game, the game doesn't move forward because the player whose move it is isn't online, or hasn't selected the game yet. Many games last weeks or months - I doubt most of that time one of the player is actively studying the position. Even if both players spend 24 hours in total actively contemplating their next move, that's less than 10% total time if the game lasts a month. 11. Şubat 2010, 10:16:10 Konu: Re: Games statistics Herlock Sholmes: Perhaps this is to do with psyche of the average BK player, all kings I’m sure, but less brain :) Being beaten in a dice game, well it was simply that the die favoured the other player! i.e. luck. Beaten in a game of skill, however, then the loser can only critique themselves. 11. Şubat 2010, 09:43:35 Konu: Re: Games statistics Herlock Sholmes: dice games require less thinking .. therefore its easier to make a quick move in those games and more of those games can be played at once personally i always try to judge my time before i join a chess or pente type of game because it can take quite some time to make a move .. but i will almost always joing a dice game (not at the moment though ... busy time coming up so i have to restrain myself a bit :)) 11. Şubat 2010, 06:00:05 Konu: Re: Games statistics coan.net: I thought someone else came up with frog finder??? 11. Şubat 2010, 04:16:32 Konu: Re: Games statistics Herlock Sholmes: Another thing that needs to be looked at is the length of the game - that is Ludo is the #1 game... but at the same time, it takes a long time to complete a game..... I don't feel like doing all the math, but would guess taking in how long a game last would still leave Ludo near the top. then a game like Hyper Backgammon is shorter, so thinking of that might push that game up some more. Then #26 game Logik is pretty short (what, max of 8 moves each?) - so if game length is considered, that game might move up some. .... not that I have much of a point, and the basics of what you said is still true - and I do use the running games as a "general" guideline of how popular a game is... but it can easily be manipulated by a team tournament, or popular (prize) tournament creating a lot of games... and if it's a long game it will push it up that list... and if it's a short game, it will push it up the list but quickly come right back down. Again... no point... just thought I would add. 11. Şubat 2010, 02:11:49 Konu: Games statistics it's interesting to look at running games statistics ... out of first 20 games mostly played, there are 15 games that uses dice ... it's 75 percent, if you will, taken by backgammon and its clones plus all the dice poker games and the absolute king Ludo ... remaining 5 are chess (traditional favorite) plus 2 battleboats version and two games created by the users of this site: Frog Finder by coan.net (aka Big Bad Wolf) and Knight Fight by me, Andy. And this situation stays pretty much the same unchanged. Why ? What constitutes the most desirable game to play ... Look at Ludo ... it's a game with a very limited level of needed skills ... so what makes it so exciting ? UNKNOWN ... waiting for the big roll, this is what makes it a great game ... the same basically applies to all backgammon clones and poker games ... now, how about Frog Finder and Battleboats ? Again UNKNOWN ... but this time unknown placement of basic elements that need to be discovered ... Knight Fight has different qualities ... everything is known and what makes it interesting is the fact that this game is a racing-running game in nature, combined with known chess knight problem ... so we are back to Ludo running quality, but not "around the pond", but instead thru carefuly planned jumps across the chess board ... I would appreciate your comments and thoughts. Andy.

Şubat 2010, 18:07:37 Konu: Re: Unrated games MadMonkey: The actual site is being re-written at the moment so no changes will be made to this version ,..... right...and maybe we'll hear another update on the new 3.0 version by the next membership drive~!! lol 7. Şubat 2010, 13:37:16 Konu: Re: Unrated games motylek1978: Great to see you here, always nice to meet new faces  In short, i have made a note of your request (in case our leader hasn't lol) and will pass it on. The actual site is being re-written at the moment so no changes will be made to this version , unless it is critical. 6. Şubat 2010, 17:26:16 Konu: Unrated games Hello, I am new here (logged in first time) and I would like to ask if there is possiblity to display list of only unrated games? I see in filter options only checkbox for displaying/hiding unrated games but no checkbox for rated games which I do not want to be displayed. Thanks in advance for answers. 5. Şubat 2010, 15:20:08 Konu: Re: nodnarbo: I'm assuming you are asking why someone can't leave a fellowship if they are in a tournament. I agree that it would be fine if a player could leave a fellowship even if they are in tournaments, I'm not sure exactly why that restriction is in there. At one time I joined every fellowship that asked me to join. I also joined way too many tournaments long ago - and I went though and left a lot of fellowships I did not do much in and was "stuck" in some fellowships longer while tournaments continued. No big deal really - just waiting until those games were over and then left, but I can not think of any good reason why I should be stuck in a fellowship (of course I could just ask the BIG BOSS to kick me out, but some of the fellowships I wanted to leave had an inactive BB, so that would not work.... so I just waited.) Sorry Bernice if I did not understand your original question. 5. Şubat 2010, 08:29:21 Konu: Re: none angelstar: no one is asking you to leave our only wish is that you stop joining all games in every tournament to resign them it spoils the tournament if you dont want to play that type of game its simple DONT join the tournament 5. Şubat 2010, 07:19:48 Konu: none well no one has to worry anymore , i am leave this site Goodbye 5. Şubat 2010, 07:10:34 Konu: Re: nodnarbo: EXACTLY......thats what I want an answer to. thank god someone understands.... 5. Şubat 2010, 04:49:16 Konu: Re: nodnarbo: good question. I see no difference. 5. Şubat 2010, 03:34:23 Konu: Re:  coan.net: I'm curious now, however, if a running tournament doesn't prevent a BB from kicking out a player, then why do players have to finish all their tournament games before they are allowed to leave the tournament. If the tournament will continue fine either way, what's the difference? 5. Şubat 2010, 02:23:44 Konu: Re:  Bernice: you also have to take into account that a member could keep signing on for tournaments in order to prevent the BB from removing them, just out of spite. If a BB wants to remove someone from a fellowship they should be able to, and unless I'm mistaken, tournaments you've signed on for would still be played as usual right? 5. Şubat 2010, 02:15:01 Konu: Re: Bernice: No, message boards can not have tournaments associated with them. 5. Şubat 2010, 02:06:03 Konu: Re: Angl**t** and 128 games to remove him/her from  Snoopy:  OMG!  5. Şubat 2010, 01:56:35 Konu: Re: coan.net: I was talking a message board like the gardening board for example.....IS Foxy able to make tournaments? if so can she kick people out and they still play in tournaments? ElCid Im as confused as you are ROFL........... 5. Şubat 2010, 01:42:56 Konu: Re: seems a bit "one sided" at the moment....  Bernice: Just curious, if someone is banned from a fellowship during a tournament, does (s)he stop being able to play in those games (almost like if a player returns to pawn, when playing on a pond)? I'm asking this, because if a player returns to pawn, although he cannot play in ponds anymore, he still can play in fellowship games and tournaments that have already started..., so the suggestion of not being able to sign in any new tournament, and when the running ones end to be kicked off the fellowship, doesn't seem to logical to me, because you can still play in them so it's not a certain defeat (ok, you are still playing for the good of a fellowship that has kicked you off, but you can just see the game as if it was a personal, and not a fellowship, one) 5. Şubat 2010, 01:38:01 The problem with that is some tournaments can last years - so if a BB wants (for whatever reason) to kick a certain player out, it is there fellowship and should have the right to do that. Everything with that tournament continues with no issues. Next rounds will start just like they should. So I'm not sure what your question is about each player that is teamed up with should get a draw to make it even - the tournament will continue - no matter what the status is of the fellowship. I'm also not sure about your example question - other then being listed for fellowship members only, tournaments have nothing else to do with fellowships - so a tournament will continue as normal no matter what the status is of the fellowship. 5. Şubat 2010, 01:31:35 Konu: Re: seems a bit "one sided" at the moment.... coan.net: yes, yes, yes....I know all that, and I dont have a problem, I havent been kicked out....but if someone is good enough to join the tournaments surely they deserve the respect of being in the f/s until the tourney is finished. But going by your post, each player that the person is teamed up with should at least get a draw to make it even. Now example......if I joined a tournament in the garden board and was banned from there, what is your explanation on that? 5. Şubat 2010, 01:19:35 Konu: Re: seems a bit "one sided" at the moment.... Bernice: Well I can tell you that Fencer has always felt that a fellowship, who is allowed in a fellowship, and the "rules" of a fellowship belongs to the Big Boss of that fellowship - so if a BB want's someone out of their fellowship, then they have 100% right to do so. And I agree with that - if a BB does not want someone in a fellowship, then they have the right to kick the person out - no matter if a player got into some fellowship tournaments, discussions, etc... if they want them out, they are out. Reason to kick person out? Does not matter - that is one of the privileges of running a fellowship, which all Brain Rooks & above have the ability to start. << < 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 > >> |
