First, I want to say how thrilled I am to see euchre tourneys almost every nite. I want to thank those helping to host and those jumping to make it happen.
I just wanted to post a little information that hopefully will keep our euchre tourneys fun.
First, we must remember the league rules that I think state that you are allowed to play in 3 tourneys IF YOU CAN KEEP UP. This, to me, means if you can play promptly and not have the other 3 at the table sitting and waiting while you are playing elsewhere. I realize in doms we sometimes get scores so big that counting dots take a few minutes. THis is not the case in euchre. If you are in a doms game, it might help to overlap your tables on ur screen to keep the euchre game going as promptly as possible. Also, the "if you can keep up" means (to me) that you realize your limitations and dont try to play more than u can. TOnight I was hosting and playing in doms. I so wanted to play euchre at the 9:15pm time but i knew it would not be within my ability to play promptly. I was so proud to see 2 other buddies come play that hasnt until tonight. But I also know that when a 10 minute game takes 30 minutes to play...the players will not come back.
The purpose of my post is not to attack anyone. I want to see euchre take off and be enjoyable to our euchre buddies. I am just asking everyone to realize their limitations as I do myself. Prompt play in all our games is vital for enjoying the time we are there.
Now lastly, I wanted to mention....anyone who wants to learn to play euchre...send me an IM. I will get back to you and set up lessons of euchre....
I offer 2 courses...
euchre101 (this is euchre for the player who wants to be my partner)
and
euchre 102 (this is euchre for the player who wants to be my opponent) lol
Remember all, its about fun.
Ty TY again to those who are helping to make euchre happen.
