It appears to have diappeared. Is it coming back? I hope so, as for some reason I could access it easily, whereas the other halls are incrdibly slow - too slow to play.
You are behind a firewall...

It seems that you are accessing the web from behind a firewall. The reason other halls are slow for you is that you are using GameColony's firewall-bypassing system. Although it works, but it's slows things down.
Main Hall - same as it was before will be appearing again within about a month. This rooms has its own firewall-bypassing capability.
Cheers,

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.
