Site Issues

News Article

Ok this time it was ALL my fault!

I tried to update some features of the site and made a BIG mess of the site. Hopefully everything is back in order now.

Sorry,
--Zzzzz

Archive Up

Access to the old site is now available. To get to the archive select the Archive option located in the upper right corner.

Or select GO TO ARCHIVE

Site Moved Early

*UPDATE*

WELCOME TO THE NEW SITE!!!!

For those that are just coming back to the site, you can tell that things have drastically changed. This was a result of the old site being hacked (multiple times in just a few hour span).

As a result I had to move to the new system (that was being created behind the scenes). It still have flaws and content is still being migrated. The biggest issue,YOU MUST CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT, sorry... but this is just how is has to be for us to move forward at this time.

Enjoy!

The game must require at least two players, last no more than one hour and be made of maximum 110 cards divided into one or two decks, rules not included. Nothing else must be necessary to play: only sheets of paper and a pen to record scores.
