Here's the Contact-Us message that we received from a player & annulled the game per his request:
"Hi, I was playing a mini-tourney against olney1147 at about 20.15 hours british summer time on Monday 3rd April. I heard a bang and a car alarm going off. I looked out of my window and saw a motorcyclist laying in the road having hit my wifes car. Naturally I had to go right away. On my return Olney1147 had aborted the game losing his 3 dollar tickets. Would you please give him my apologies and reinstate his account with 3 dollar tickets from my account. Please advise action taken. Thank you (spock15)"

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.
