I RECENTLY REPLIED TO THE POLL AND WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE SEEN CRIBBAGE AND WHIST MAKE THE SURVERY LIST.

WHILE CARD GAMES USUALLY ARE FASTER MOVING (REAL TIME) IN NATURE AS A RULE, THAT DOES NOT PRECLUDE THEM FROM BEING
PLAYED AS TURN-BASED GAMES.
OTHER WEBSITES HAVE WORKED IT OUT FAIRLY WELL ACTUALLY.

MY CONCERN IS WHETHER THESE
GAMES WILL ALSO WORK AS WELL FOR WEBTV-ER'S AS THEY DO FOR
THOSE ON PC. THEREIN LIES THE
RUB! I CAN'T SPEAK FOR ALL THE GAME SITES, BUT BUG CAFE HAS FIGURED OUT A WORK AROUND FOR
US WEBTV-ER'S FOR BOTH CANASTA
AND CRIBBAGE.

ANOTHER ISSUE IS GAMES THAT ARE PLAYED BY MORE THAN TWO
PLAYERS. IF ONE PERSON DOESN'T
TAKE THEIR TURN IN A TIMELY FASHION IT WILL DELAY THE GAME AND RUIN IT FOR EVERYONE. BUT
THAT IS TRUE OF ANY GAME.

THE CANASTA GAME AT BUG CAFE COULD USE A LITTLE BIT MORE
TWEAKING AT TIMES, BUT THE
CRIBBAGE GAME SEEMS TO PLAY
OUT VERY WELL.

AS WITH ANY CARD GAMES TRYING
TO REMEMBER DISCARDED CARDS
AND SUCH IS EASIER IN REAL TIME PLAY AS OPPOSED TO THE
TURN-BASED STYLE. BUT IT'S A
SMALL PRICE TO PAY IN ORDER TO GET SOME POPULAR CARD GAMES
ONLINE. I'M ALL FOR IT AND
HOPE FENCER AGREES THAT IT'S
WORTH THE TIME AND EFFORT TO
BRING SOME CARD GAMES HERE TO
BRAINKING.

GO FOR IT, FENCER!!
