Like say, I walk into a McDonalds and two guys decide to rob me and rough me up... Is that McDonald's fault? I don't think it is.


If you're eating at McDonalds, getting roughed up by two guys is the least of your worries. What about the havoc that friggin' food causes to your vital organs ...

any idea of when this will be implemented?

As a reformed holder I welcome this news. It means I can start playing double turn games again without the temptation of holding. Although, I rarely, if ever, held the full 24 hours like some people. I'm in front of my computer enough to not keep people waiting. This should speed the double turn ...

It was just for arguments sake.

my son is now a premium player course he's tring to attack me in most games but of course my kid is no kid !! he's 30 goes under === eglambar === most of the time he likes it but he does not have the patience with the dice i think his first win was 150 pts but looking at his games and the ones he's ...

Can you explain in further detail what you mean by "behave as one"? Because in our case we were playing as a doubles team. I thought the whole point of being a team was working together. Thanks.

The only way to manipulate a NO DOUBLE TURNS game in order to get a DOUBLE turn is if you are playing a DOUBLES or TRIPLES game and you hold in order to grant your teammate a double turn. I can agree with an arguement against the sportsmanship of that... seeing as it is in fact a NO DOUBLE TURN game ...

I love it BABY!!! Although, I may be coming too attached... everytime the site shuts down for an hour or two for upgrades, my loved ones put me on suicide watch.

ah yeh, i was afraid of this. i guess the title of this thread wasn't obvious enough for anyone other than clear thinking adults. i'd be happy to join all of you in the "pros & cons of holding" thread, or the "i hate holders" thread, or the "ooh, i can tell you held b4" thread, or "holders have ...

... Holding is a "tactic" used by folks who cannot compete in a fair game. Dress it up in any verbal decoration you choose, but it's still just a cheap and underhanded way to play.

... In my most humble opinion, anyway.

if it's within the rules it's fair. i'd be happy to compete against you in ...

I'm just curious how you are able to weed through the people who are cheating and the people who aren't. My "roommate" (AKA my wife) and i have been banned from playing in the same game even though we have only played in doubles games as teammates. Not trying to start any trouble just want some ...

Darkfire, i'm just trying to avoid people like you who whine about it. Since you know i hold i find it odd that you joined a game that i started and then chose to whine about it afterward. But i respect your opinion and right to whine...and crackers.

Thanks for your input, Aladriel. I normally start my own games too, so me joining your games is not something you should worry about.

I have received a lot of flack about my tendency to hold. I'd like to compile a list of fellow holders or people who don't mind holders and play games against each other. I think the double turn hold move is a cool twist to an already awesome game. The less narrow minded player recognizes all the ...

It is I, ElDangerouso... THE MASTER OF THE HOLD!!! Just to let you know there IS some RISK involved when you HOLD. Two times in a row i overslept and wasn't able to fortify or get a card. I agree that it should be outlawed or at least changed, but until it is i'll use it to my advantage. No ...

2006-02-24 15:09:28 - ElDangerouso: check out the forum later... that should be a nice little story about cheaters named seth and leighcifer under abuses and complaints. you guys just made it too obvious to ignore. Why not join a doubles if you can't win on your own???
2006-02-25 00:00:10 - seth ...

i wonder if there is any way to get the points ill lose back again.. i'm in 11th place and i take all games and the points that come along with them seriously.

Check out Game #4716!
Too obvious to ignore.
