I'm afraid it's a bit of a rant.
I'm sick of playing people who can't take losing. The other day there was a guy who had something to moan about on almost every hand. What's with that? Do you think you are the only one who gets a bad hand?? Get over yourself, we all get crap hands and have to deal with it.
Oh yeah and of course there are the people who realise they have no chance of winning and decide to disconnect from the game before it finishes - cowards! Then of course the ones who want sympathy!!! (warned you it was a rant)
I'm turning off my chat in all games from now on so appologies to those who don't do any of the above and were saying hi or something.

I've lost 5,6 and even 7 games in a row but I don't take it out on the next person I play.
Seriously if you can't take losing don't bother playing me
Lighten up!

It happens in all games Yves, but the nice friendly players far outweigh the others.
Don't let it get to you! (And hope to beat you soon!) I won't throw a wobbly if you win though!

Hey gurl..its been a while. Hope all is well and you're smiling again.
But hey it never stops them from wasting other peoples valuable time. Chalk that one on the blackboard and don't play them again. After all its not like there is a shortage of domino players around. However VIP's are a little different I have found. They stick around for a few games at the very least.
I'd stick with some regulars. Have done for years and is happier with that 
HAGD!

P.S. When I said people who disconnect from the game, I meant when people disconnect from the internet rather than just resigning, fair enough if someone resigns a game that's up to them. But when they disconnect they are basically making the other person wait the 5 minutes or sometimes more when the person has no intention of returning, it's just so annoying. Just wanted to clear that up, people can resign if they want

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.
