Fast games/Slow games.

Many things can affect the speed of a game. Some people's computers are a bit slow, or the players themselves can take longer to respond. However many games can take longer than normal because of strategies. I just played (and lost) a very enjoyable tourney game which had both players on the edge of their seats. The enjoyment was somewhat marred by the chat about 'slow games' in the tourney room. Perhaps we could all be a little more considerate in our public messages.

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.
