just a message to GC how about adding a stat to this site. we know our ratings and our win % on ladder games. But what we dont know is our win % on who we play. we kinda have to keep track of that ourself. it would to me be a great stat to look up for players. that way we can find out who has our number when we play that person. and where we as players can improve on. thx
Excellent idea

You are way ahead of me Screener. I never thought of that stat and love the stats that Game Colony has. I just remember who is tough to beat and so far that is all I can handle. Would love to see that stat though. However, it might also trigger avoiding the player that beats you frequently meaning some players won't get games they otherwise do. Maybe it's better left unknown?
I disagree

Hi StarForce49 and thx for the reply but in a way I disagree and think at least for me anyway I love the challenge of playing players that have beat me. it makes you learn the game on how they play and in the long run will improve your own way of playing. plus the stat wont really be right becuse of 1 pt luck games that its close to even when anyone can roll a good double and win the game. but at least its a stat I would like to see. with more and more players on here joining its hard to keep count on who you have trouble with. and i'm sure StarForce49 if you could sit down and have a game with the top players in the world you would do it as so would I.. I just would'nt play them for $200 tix lol

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.
