Re: Propose to only allow abandon game instead of expelling a player that has not played yet

I agree that sometimes you have to wait a long time to get into a game. And maybe, now is a bad time. In this instance, don't accept the game. So the next reason why you would want to abandon a game before you played. Is that some strong hands our played right from the start. And you hate what you h...

Re: So rude are the elder/higher players...

I don't know that game that you were in. Normally, if you are a newbie, I don't mind some table talk. If you were on the opposition team. Because, if you were on mine team, I hope they don't mind. I would hope someone entering the game has a basic understanding. I tell my newbie partner, if you are ...

see all I red thumbed - and for how long

Can I see who I red thumbed because I don't want to play in a game with them? Is it possible to remove a red thumb. It could be easy to just give them a green thumb. But, if I did it long ago, I may not remember it. With this, can I see who game me a red thumb? How long does a red thumb last on some...

Re: How come there is no way to report potential cheating?

I had an issued playing with two people in hand and foot so I red flagged them and for some reason many weeks later I accepted a game without looking who the other players were.

Re: Picking team members

As I mentioned, this group of players. 2 of which I played against in spades.
It seems in spades that group was found cheating and those two had there ELO reset to zero.
Well those two are in Hand and foot and doing their thing.

Re: Picking team members

I know of a some players that use this method of selecting teams for the distinct advantage to gain ranking. They were in the 300+ rankings for awhile. They do this here in hand and foot and spades. In spades, I know they use to complain about having a newbie partner. This option solved that problem...

You want a fair game - only play against random players

Why would anyone want to be in a game where the other team are members who know each other's style and perfected there means of playing with each other. Why you have the stranger. There's a lot of team work in bidding and executing the game. I'm here to have fun. And yes the ELO is a fun way to have...

Re: Picking team members

What does it mean by friendly play, in the description for this preference?

The game doesn't affect the rankings?
