Re: Skat, Saint Poker and Palace: 3 card games!

I've heard good things about Skat and always wanted to learn it. But Wow. I just watched the video and my head is spinning with that scoring info . Seems kinda convoluted. Will still try and push through though , because it's otherwise exactly my kind of game , and a 3 player card game can often com...

Re: Same site play

Thanks for the reply. Yeah it had been awhile. Good to know about only needing one premium. That was my next question.

Re: Same site play

Well this is just awful then. I just logged on to find out this new rule. My friend isn't allowed to play because we "play from the same location". We aren't currently at the same location. So, what's happened? Because they took their turn from my house once we've been blacklisted from eve...

Thought so. Those times I wasn't sure I saw it, I probably just absent minded clicked on it and agreed out of habit (you know, like we do on Terms of Service agreements 8-) )

Re: table got changed to turn based

yeah, changing any settings without agreement is definitely impolite. Would be nice if everyone had to click "ready", and if any settings are changed, it resets the "ready" flag. That being said, I do get notifications about committing to completing the game in both turn based an...

Re: Why a red thumb???

While I do like the idea of showing the ratio of thumbs given, this could also lead to abuse. Step 1. Record the number of red thumbs given by all opponents at the start of a game. Step 2. When you receive a red thumb, look at whose number of red thumbs given increased. Step 3. Retaliate against th...

Re: Conceding - A fine and legal way to waste people's time

As others have said, in the right circumstances I think it's perfectly valid, and a very good option. In other circumstances, it can certainly be impolite, but I see see no good way to implement any type of "smart" concede option, so I think we need to just take the bad with the good, as I...

Re: Constantly disconnected

I use Chrome exclusively and can't say I've noticed this issue. I mean, I can't say I've never seen the message "Disconnected from Game Server", but it's relatively rare, I haven't noticed it interfere with play. Usually I can ignore the message, or wait a second and then just play as norm...

Re: BGA on Xbox One (Internet Explorer)

Hello. I've already reported this as a bug, but then thought I'd see if anyone else is able/willing to test it and see if I'm alone. Basically the site doesn't work at all for me on my Xbox One browser. The page mostly loads, but I can't interact with it at all. Links are unresponsive, and the brow...
