I found myself in a dilemma. Nobody wanted to play me anymore. So this is what I did: My max rating at this stage is 2314. So I forfeit almost 100 games, until my rating hit 1100. Then I played myself up again. At this moment I am 2197. Anybody else wanna try this? It's fun...
yes please

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.
