TOURNEY START TIMES

JUST A FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT THE 2 MINUTES THAT TD'S USUALLY ALLOW FOR LATECOMERS IS A COURTESY, AND NOT EVERYONE IS IN FAVOUR OF WAITING. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PLAYERS REQUEST THAT WE START RATHER THAN WAIT (NOT TODAY). I REALLY DO NOT THINK THAT IT IS REASONABLE FOR A LATECOMER TO SUGGEST THAT WE SHOULD HAVE WAITED LONGER.

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.
