It seems that the world that we live in today lacks civility and polite interactions. I, for one, prefer to play players who at the very least say hi, or gl, or gg, or have a good game. Everyone wants to win. That is not the point. Being civil in the greatest card game ever invented will carry the game to the next generation. Players do nothing to enhance the game or their reputation by being rude or inconsiderate. If you are too frightened to say gl or gg, try hi. You'll be amazed at the player's change of attitude towards you. I know it is easy to try and be anonymous. My suggestion is to be a good sport and enjoy the people and the games. Two letters only. Hi. I'll bet you can do it even if you're mother never taught you how.

I couldn't agree more. I don't expect dialog throughout the game, but and acknowledgment of my existence would be appreciated. I will say that most are decent, fun players. It only takes a few.

My friend, I could not agree more and I'm very happy you posted what you did. It just might mae some realize what a difference just saying hello could make to a person. Who know's, maybe thats just what that person needed, a little bit of politeness. I live in a rural community in Newfoundland, Canada and I guess I just dont now any other way other that to converse with people. I love having a chat with a player, not holding up the game but just something simple like, to ask where they are from or tell them about my Grandkids..It never does any harm in attempting to talk to someone..worst thing that can happen is they not respond..Thanks again my friend and the very best to you and your family!!

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.
