Fall is in full swing...makes you think of warm fires, apple cider, beautifully colored leaves falling. I would like to take this time to wish all our USA league members a very happy and safe Thanksgiving on November 22nd. Have a safe and happy one. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, GET YOUR FLU SHOTS! Our doctor says it's going to be a very bad year for flu and it's already started. Better to be safe than sorry. I even got one. Please keep in mind that our hosts have families and friends that they will want to spend time with on Thanksgiving Day. We will try and keep as full a tour schedule as possible.     

 

 

Morning/afternoon challenge is now from Midnight through the last tour prior to 2:59 pm. Evening challenge is now from 3:00 pm through the last tour prior to 11:59 pm. If the last tour of the day spills over past midnight, then the final high score for that tour still counts for the day that tour was started on. When the Midnight host takes over the room that is when that day's new high score goes in effect.           

 

 

Terri's monthly challenge is Devil’s Double-E Monthly Delite for D/E tours and has been revamped. Here's how it will work. The Double E Delite challenge is now an invitational monthly challenge! Every player who wins a D/E during the month will be invited by Terri to a D/E playoff to be held in the first week of the following month. The winners of that tour will win 64 gems, 2nd place will win 16 gems, and 3rd place wins 10k ladderbux.        

PLEASE NOTE THE WALL OF FAME CAN NOW BE FOUND UNDER THE TOURNAMENT TAB ON THE LEAGUE HOME PAGE. IT IS LOCATED ON THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE OF THAT PAGE.

 

 

UPCOMING EVENTS

SUNDAY NOVEMBER 25th - 9:00 pm USA vs World tour 20,000 bux winner each side, 20 gems and dancing solar devil to overall winner. USA jumps my side play in Town & Country. Rest of the World will play in Shrine host to be determined. Then we will all meet back in Town & Country for the final showdown. 

 

 

EVERY WEDNESDAY 9:00 pm thru 10:30 p.m. inclusive is Mooky and Foxy's Thursday Trivia/Game Nights 100 bux for each first correct answer. MUST BE IN TOURS IN ORDER TO PLAY TRIVIA.

 

PLEASE DO NOT SIT IN THE ROOM (ESPECIALLY DURING EVENING TOURS) IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO PLAY IN THE NEXT TOUR. This is not fair to other players who want to play and cannot get into the room. You can always use an invite or go into a host's tour page and click on play here to get in... Even I need to use those links occasionally, lol. EVERYONE's cooperation will be appreciated. The only exception allowed is if you are the next host. Obviously, the hosts need to be able to be in the room to do so. Your profile must be open when in tours.

 

Another issue I would like to address at this time is proper tour etiquette. PLEASE WATCH YOUR SWEARING. BOTH TOWN & COUNTRY AND SHRINE ARE CENSORED ROOMS AND POGO CAN BE MONITORING THEM AT ANY TIME. It is also against Cases rules.

 

Make sure you read each tourney carefully so you know what it is. Please try and pay attention to the hosts during the tours and please keep in mind that there is a lot going on behind the scenes, so a host may not have time to watch ALL the chat as much as they would like too. This is particularly true in larger tours. Our hosts are human, mistakes might be made, but nothing we can't fix. REMEMBERING TO POST WINNER//NON-WINNER is a huge help for the host. SO PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, POST WINNER//NON-WINNER. IN VERY LARGE TOURS, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HOLD CHAT AFTER GIVING WINNER//NON-WINNER. Your hosts will truly appreciate this. If we all work together tours will run very smoothly. Should by chance an error is made in calling the wrong winner, it is imperative that the player/s immediately notify the host and not wait until the next round pairs are given. Simply type out noooooooooooooooo so and so won. That being said, occasionally a mistake may be made, but as I stated above all hosts are human beings, not robots. Also keep in mind that we can and will fix any error that might be made.

An even huger shout out to our hosts who volunteer their time to host for all of you. Please be sure to thank hosts, they will appreciate the recognition.  

BIRTHDAYS IN NOVEMBER

 

Happy Birthday to Wz 2nd, JBran 6th, Chukee 10th, MKenyon 16th and nigirl 25th. If you don't see your birthday listed on the league page (located on the right-hand side below staff listing and birthdays are listed by month) please let any host or Admin know and we will add you. 

 

Mooky is now coordinator for our birthday tours. Here's what to expect: mooky will contact you a week or so before your birthday asking you if you would like a birthday tournament in your honor. She will be asking what day, what time and what kind of tour you would like. Your tournament will be scheduled as close to the time you have requested as possible. Once you have let her know you would like a birthday tour, Mooky will send you questions that we can use for trivia in your tour (favorite color food music etc.). Trivia is optional, and we will only do it if you tell us you want us to do it! Mooky will be working off the birthday list on the right side of our main page. If your name/birthday is not on there, please let one of our staff know and we will put your name on the list. Thanks, and we hope you will enjoy this way to honor our players on their special day!!

 

Hugs and love,
