Hannibal 2002-09-05 09:19:29 | Hi, It will be nice to see "last browser played" incon next to boards on the main site. Reload link will be useful too. What do you think? Hannibal |
Pascal 2002-09-05 11:53:28 | I reload by pressing F5 under Internet Explorer. Thats faster than klicking white spots on your monitor. And they can't move away any more... ___________________________ Member of www.rechenkraft.net - German Website about Distributed Computing Projects 1: Athlon TB-C, 1.2 GC/s, 256 MB DDR-RAM, Erazor x², ADSL-Flatrate, NIC Intel, Win 98 SE Mainboard MSI-6380 Rev. 1 2: Pentium III, 600 MC/s, 256 MB RAM, NIC Intel, Win 98 SE |
Stephen Brooks 2002-09-05 15:26:48 | I was wondering about displaying the following: 1. Browser last played 2. Browser last won 3. Browser with most wins on that board ...but I'm still trying to think of a way to display those three compactly without it getting too confusing.

kio 2002-09-06 03:47:33 | just an indicator whether you can currently place a coin on a game or not would be good. ... kio ! |
kio 2002-09-06 12:11:20 | indicator on main page looks great! ... kio ! |
Stephen Brooks 2002-09-06 12:17:47 | Yes, we just had a brief episode of geese when my browser-detection script had an error in it. Things seem back to normal now.

vliw 2002-09-07 13:53:51 | Just another thought: Is it possible to block different browsers running on one ip-address? More and more i got the feeling that some players are using a *main browser* for normal playing. But if things are getting harder they start a second (or even a third) browser to block other player rows and prepare own rows for there *main browser*. I knew that this ip-blocking sadly would block all fair players running via a proxy, too. Sincerely Hauke |
Stephen Brooks 2002-09-07 14:25:19 | This is not happening because I prevent people from playing consecutively from the same IP even if they use different browsers. I also ask for both the referred IP address and the original IP address, so this even worked for me in University where I was working via a proxy/LAN/compicated stuff/sockets/you know what I mean? Have you yourself managed to "cheat" in this way?

Hannibal 2002-09-08 03:20:26 | quote: It probably doesn't work. Couple days ago, I have played with 3 browsers in the same time (Galeon[Mozilla], Opera & Konqueror) . But I didn't cheat, beacause I played on diffrent boards. Maybe from that reason I can did that . Hannibal |
Stephen Brooks 2002-09-09 01:54:31 | Yes, you can play as different browsers on separate boards with the same IP, as the boards are considered to be independent of each other.

guest 2002-09-11 17:41:33 | perhaps a "team" feature. Let MSIE 4/5/6 have their own icons but they have to share turns, likewise NS/Mozilla? Or perhaps not. An overall winner board? If this is the definitive answer to the browser question, it seems odd it's spread out among 8 boards. |
guest 2002-09-11 17:44:03 | Or just have all the MSIE / Mozilla-Netscape stats shared and they all play one icon each. There's already a total high score list. |
Pascal 2002-09-12 02:05:51 | How do you think about any avatar-wars? ___________________________ Member of www.rechenkraft.net - German Website about Distributed Computing Projects 1: Athlon TB-C, 1.2 GC/s, 256 MB DDR-RAM, Erazor x², ADSL-Flatrate, NIC Intel, Win 98 SE Mainboard MSI-6380 Rev. 1 2: Pentium III, 600 MC/s, 256 MB RAM, NIC Intel, Win 98 SE |
