Software Changes for Canasta I'd like t

At the end of a hand when the cards are exposed, it would be much better if the cards were organized by rank not suit (eg. put all the 5's together, not all the hearts together). This would save some time in analysis when a hand ends.
software changes I'd like to see...

That would be a good change. Another change would be to make the game more challenging by NOT showing what cards are being picked up in a pile. It takes a lot more skill to remember the cards that were put into the pile.
Also don't show how many wilds were used in the opponents canasta. It takes more skill to remmeber this( and to try to figure it out in the cases where a canasta was put down all at one time.)

i think that it should remain same and show wilds used in canasta's and card's used to make canasta's. If u were playing in real life u can see how many wilds were used.. so why change the game. If it didnt show the wilds used you would never know what was left no matter how skillful u think u r, or how much u pay attention. please keep game the same as it is in real life.

I agree with Afuntime. It is confusing when cards are arranged by suit

Another change: Create Table Defaults by player

When I create a table, 90% of the time I set it the same way. Why not save every player's table creation defaults. That would save a lot of clicking time when starting a game, and we might up spending more $$ with the colonly! It's a win-win situation.

Yes, arranging them by suite makes much more sense. It's easier & faster to see what your opponent was holding- (and to then get a feel for how your opponent plays- to answer nics' question)
As far as showing how many wilds are in a canasta, aFUNtime is right, you CAN see how many wilds are in a canasta in real life. BUT what you CAN'T see in a real life game, is WHAT cards are being picked up from the pile.
It would be more of a challenging game, not to be able to see the cards being picked up from the pile, and to have to remember them-just as you would in real life. (and other game sites as well)
table defaults

I agree with Fun...it is VER annoying to have to reset the same game over and over. There should be a button that says " save as default "
Thank you

Play canasta tournaments online
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.
