Ladder bonus points

Hi, I think that the ladder bonus points for playing in tourneys is a great idea, but having to get 30 in a month to go up the ladder 1 space is so very unlikely to happen as that would mean you would need to play a tourney every day, and sometimes there are days between tourneys...I think 10 is such a much more reasonable number to need to achieve to move up 1 ladder space. great idea...just out of reach at 30..Lynley

I agree with you, Angel. Also, is there a way to 'roll-over' points at the end of the month? Furthermore most games for bux in Canasta are for 1/2, 1 or 2. So, acquiring Ladder points for games is prohibitive. Perhaps one Ladder point could be awarded for each 5 bux on a 'cumulative' basis. LADDER POINTS, per se, is a good concept but I think it could stand some fine-tuning.

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.
