RSS??

For those computer illiterate people (like myself) what is RSS?

[wacicha]

well if you win the free membership and get into 100 games like i do i spend all day scrolling thru the games to see if i have a turn and it is easy to miss one =-= this peogram gives you a 1 line each list says waiting for turn or ready or what i been seeing to much of eliminated if you see you have a turn just click takes you there

[DPTigerFan]

awesome so that's what it does, but what is it?

[wacicha]

rss stands for Really Simple Syndication, a form of web syndication used by news websites and weblogs google it for better explaination

You know those stock ticker things that scroll across a screen, think that, only you see your games going across.

You will need an RSS reader, just do a web search for "RSS reader" and you will find one (if you use firefox you can get an RSS extension for your browser)

mine doesn't scroll so must have done something wrong this is gonna be a week long process i just know it lol

wacicha - how many games do you play at once? - As you now know, i've got premium membership (You missed out there - i can still kill you for a year) and am now playing 15 games.

How many games at once is too many in your expert experience?

[wacicha]

i have been in over 100 at a time and found at 106 i missed 2 different turns so what i do now is start 4 or 5 a day it takes about 5 or 6 days for the deadbeats to work out in 7 days the ones you started today will be moving at break neck speed and you will be waiting for deadbeats in the other ones you start at a later date

Sounds like you might prefer a feed that only shows games that are waiting on your turn (or at least pushes those to the top/front).

[wacicha]

it took me 8 hrs yesterday to download a feed it is sage and when i refrersh and then click it shows all my games in numeriical order and says 1 of three things waiting ready and eliminated i click on ready and my turn is there it does not refresh it self i have to do it not complaining but you others seem to have done better or know how to work it i am slow on computers

I got RSS extension for firefox. How do I load the feed in the bar?

lets remember chaps - its quality not quantity that counts as can be seen by pedro's record. dont spoil it ped by having too many games to think about.

there's nothing worse than trying to get your rank up by playing masses of games. is there?

for the scrolling part, everything depends on your RSS feed, how it displays etc.

head over to https://addons.mozilla.org/search.php?q=rss&app=firefox if you use firefox, there are a ton of options
