Happy 4th!
I received a challenge a few days ago. I think this is something new, so I didn't know how to respond to it as my challenger was not in the Main when I logged in.
Today, I read that if I don't accept a challenge within 7 days, my ranking will be reduced. I'm on the site quite often, and haven't seen my challenger since the challenge was offered. So how does one attempt to accept a challenge from someone who's not around?

If you receive a challenge and can't see the challenger, negotiate with your challenger within the publically-accessible challenge area.
If you negotiate the challenge in good faith, and the challenger is not around, drop us a line via Contact Us. The challenge in this case will, be withdrawn.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
