Thank you for taking the time and effort to include this version of cribbage. I know our UK friends will enjoy this version. I will also enjoy it as I liek this version also.
Will there be 5-card tournies also? I would support these.
Sincerely,
Bob 'Moojus' Milk

Yes, Moojus, there is an option for 5 crib tourneys....when the first tourney will be, I don't know....I will try one in the UK time zone soon, as they are more used to this one. In the meantime, I, (my own personal thoughts) would give the other players a chance to play this version....or at least try it out.....Just keep a look out, someone will be hosting a 5 crib tourney soon.

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.
