A different Casino for the site--other will stay

[Matt]

Hey you guys, I have loaded a new Casino on the site that allows for team play.

Please stop by chat if you would like to test it for me or put your quesitons/concerns in here.

http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/casino.php

[Darkthoughts]

COOL!!! I haven't got time tonight (its 11.05pm...and on a school night...eeek!! :D ) but I'll check it out tomorrow :thumbsup:

[Daghain]

I need someone to come into hold 'em to play - there's no option for a computer opponent. :D

[Matt]

I would play if we could catch some time together. :(

Just so you guys know...

You get points for this thing just by being on the board so we are all making money for it right now

Also, there is going to be a lottery drawing out there and I plan to give nice gifts for winners that hit the right numbers.

[Daghain]

Maybe this evening. :lol: Working!

[Matt]

Putting on the newest upgrade. :rock:

Here are the features/fixes


v 0.34 (Oct 18)
- Should fix remaining problems with the chat box
- Fixed problem with similar hands not picking the proper winner (ex 2 straights)
- Removed show of cards from players that didn't play
- Added a box under the navbar to display # of users in poker game (template edit required)
- Fixed some formatting errors

[Daghain]

Excellent! Can't wait to try it out!

Probably won't be 'til Sunday, though. :cry:

[towerguard]

thanks Matt, now I'm broke on the internet too. :p

[Hannah]

I'm addicted now. I already lost all my monies.

[Jorge]

I have six dollars! In your collective face, suckers. :P

[towerguard]

I'm addicted now. I already lost all my monies.

I had the most for about...3 seconds, Now I need to beg for gil. :arg:

[Letti]

Maybe I lose because I don't know the rules... :orely:

[Storyslinger]

:orely:
I understand most of the rules and still lose, I think you got it good Letti, dear

[Storyslinger]

I just got this message when I bet more than I have
Just thought I'd share it :lol:


Blackjack
You try your washer on a string trick you learnt when you where 8, but it doesn't take. Perhaps you should try again when you actually have something to bet?

[Daghain]

Niiice. :lol:

[Storyslinger]

I can't even con a computer:(

:lol:

[Matt]

Ninja slots is being added today--plus glitch fixes hopefully

[Brice]

I should sleep, but I have to keep posting to earn back the money I keep losing playing blackjack.

[Daghain]

:lol:

I got my clock cleaned in video poker last night.

[Matt]

Upgraded to .50 today and it always causes a glitch with Hold um...getting it fixed now. :nana:

[Matt]

Someone using this mod has figured out how to put their own images on the slot machine.

So I am going to make a Dark Tower one. :rock:

I am hoping for suggestions on which images we could use.

[Daghain]

Cool! How about the main characters' pictures?

[Matt]

I think that would be great, along with the Dark Tower maybe? Three in a row win's big. :lol:

[Storyslinger]

I like it

[Daghain]

Sounds great!

[Jean]

tower, rose, revolver, book, stone, door, key, jawbone, crystal ball

[Matt]

Thanks Jean, those are great!

Now I just have to find some images for them :lol:

[Randall Flagg]

This weeks NFL games are all up there!

[Matt]

Wow! Thanks for doing those Jerome.

I put a bit on Denver because they are going to kick the Packers asses!!

**glares at Monte**

:lol:

[Daghain]

Hockey, Jerome, hockey! :lol:

[Randall Flagg]

Hockey, Jerome, hockey! :lol:

Hockey doesn't work on a spread, it is a money line and this casino isn't set up for that. Sorry.

This weeks NFL games-including SuperBowl 41.5 (Colts vs. Patriots) is up and ready for betting!

[Daghain]

Well, darn. :( Oh well.

[Nerak]

Hockey, Jerome, hockey! :lol:

Hockey doesn't work on a spread, it is a money line and this casino isn't set up for that. Sorry.

[Matt]

Hold 'um is down at the moment due to upgrade. :borg:

[Matt]

Fixed now though :rock:

Thanks again to Andrew for helping us out.

[Matt]

I just wanted to mention that the most recent upgrade to this really changed the look. Better and sleeker with a cool green felt. :lol:

Great things to check out.


You can bet on sports events- Football now but others later
You can play the lotto, buying as many tickets as you like
Slot machines
A really good Texas Holdum game. This could be really fun with a few folks.
Remember: Its just 7 card poker--best of 5 with all kinds of weird talk :lol:
There is also one handed blackjack and "let it ride" poker
Please let any one of us know if you have any questions or problems with the Casino. :grouphug:

[Daghain]

Green felt? Green felt? I gotta get in there! :lol:

[Matt]

I got a few minutes :D

[Daghain]

So do I! :D

[Matt]

I just put 1,000 bucks down on a hand of blackjack and won!

Man, I'm lucky. :lol:

[Randall Flagg]

This weekends NFL games are up.

[Brice]

Playing Blackjack, I just went from about $700 to over $6000 and then all the way to zero. I think I might need a fake 12 step program. :(




Actually, I just made this post so I'd have five more dollars to try to pull myself back again. :lol:

[Matt]

F--king blackjack... I just lost 2 grand in 2 minutes!

[Patrick]

F--king blackjack... I just lost 2 grand in 2 minutes!
Yeah, the blackjack game here is a fickle whore.

[Matt]

I bet a 1000 dollar chip and pulled 4 three's :lol:

Won an amazing amount of money

[Patrick]

I bet a 1000 dollar chip and pulled 4 three's :lol:

Jeebus! The dealer busted?

[Matt]

Nope, that one is just a pair or better to win, no dealer.

Basically video poker with cards.

[Patrick]

Oh! I thought you were continuing the discussion on blackjack just above.

Maybe I should check out the video poker...

[Matt]

Oh no, Patrick. That is the blackjack game I am talking about.

I think I must have meant the video poker game now that I think about it.

So yeah, there was no dealer. :lol:

<---got totally confused for a moment.

[Patrick]

Every addiction has a dealer, Matt.

:lol:

[Matt]

:lol:

So yeah, it was 4 three's on a straight deal in the video poker, I discarded the fifth card thinking I might magically get a fifth one.

Aaron has taught me not to say I literally shit my pants (because that's saying something :ninja) so I will say I was pretty close when I saw them.

Huge payday!

I'm looking for charities to donate too

[Patrick]

Well, you're on the top of the list of Richest Players. Who the hell is that at #2 though, "Great Old One"? Is that your dad?

[Matt]

It is, I donated half my winnings to them. :blush:

He said he might want to play some hold um one of these days.

[Randall Flagg]

Thursday's Cowboy Packer game is up and available for bets.
I even put an Over/Under line up.

I'll look into that in just a sec SJ, everyone has access to the betting pool as far as I know, but I did sell you a new package so that may have something to do with it. :huglove:

[Matt]

I'm sure its fixed now SJ, I missed a setting.

[Randall Flagg]

Can Miami get off the snide and win?

[Matt]

Just did a huge upgrade on this one, let me know if its having problems. :grouphug:

[Matt]

I'm just noticing some fuck ups on the upgrade.

For members right now, we can't donate to others but I'm working on it.

[Wuducynn]

JUUUUUST when I was going to donate them to someone too! :lol:

[Wuducynn]

Well I got to the donate screen and then when I clicked the donate button it says it brings up this message "Listen you scum sucking fuckhead, folk like you can't access this page and never will!! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" or something like it anyway.

[Matt]

Holy shit!! :lol:

I'm in the middle of fixing it so that's what you get.

[Matt]

Donations should be fixed now. :grouphug:

[Wuducynn]

Noticed that..thanks for your efforts. :cool:

Thank you, Master Daghain.

I really want that gold membership, so I'm going to start saving.

[Daghain]

You're most welcome. And very cute! :lol:

Had you gone with this pic (knowing a LOVE this movie!) you would have hit $1000.

http://www.oliver1968.co.uk/oliver28B.jpg

Just something to file away for future use. :D

[Kevin]

Aww man I was thinking about it, but I thought my guy plied the guilt factor a little bit more. I own both the B/W version and the color version, as well as the book. It is one of my favorites. :)

Any other takers? :rock:

[Daghain]

Well, now you know. You almost got extra for the thank you though - that was a smooth move. :lol:

[Kevin]

Almost? Do you know how hard it is to find an asian ninja, bowing! Jebus!

Kidding... :couple:

[Daghain]

Do you know that I know exactly how hard that is? NOT. :lol:

Martial arts schools get packs of those all the time.

It WAS a cute one, though. :D

[Randall Flagg]

All of this weekends NFL games are up and available for wagering.

[Randall Flagg]

This weekends games are up.
Strange lines with playoff seeding almost completely decided. Who would think the Titans would be favored over the Colts?
The Texans over the Jaguars?
Toss a few bucks ups and see.

[Randall Flagg]

OK. This weekends 4 NFL wildcard games are posted as well as Mondays BCS college football game.

[Matt]

Could you turn the 500 and 1000 chips on? You can see them, but clicking them does nothing.

[Matt]

I fixed that recently I believe Brice :couple:

[Brice]

Cool! :D

[Daghain]

Those totally rock! Nice job, Mikey! :D

[TerribleT]

[Matt]

Mikes chips are in there now, they look great. :nana:

A very fine touch indeed.

[Mike Beck]

thanks guys and gals! i just lost all my money in blackjack, on a side note. :(

[Randall Flagg]

The NFL Divisional Playoffs are up and available for wagering.
I have "moved" the line for the Patriots-Jaguars game a bit to encourage wagering.
16 Points is a lot of wood to give.

[Kevin]

The 10$ chip is a big red X for me. :(

you can still bet money with it, but the picture does not work.

They all look absolutely fantastic though!! Good job Mike!

[towerguard]

Is there a special prize for this? :thumbsup:

[Matt]

Hmmm...I'll look into it. did you clear cookies with ctrl+f5?

[Kevin]

Yup, and its the same on the school computer I'm using right now.

[Matt]

Thanks for letting me know about that Kevin, I had a bad path in the settings and couldn't see it in Firefox. Should be fixed now

[Kevin]

All fixed Matt, thanks. :thumbsup:

[Brice]

I'm not going to do this yet, because I plan on betting a fairly significant amount of money; however, I've noticed that someone waits until there's a large bet placed, and then they bet 1 dollar against it. They are only risking a dollar with the potential gain being much higher. A smart idea, grant you, but I think a tad unfair, so I'll be jumping in as soon as there are some other bets :)

[Mike Beck]

Brice, you are god among men, sir. One day, stories and songs shall be written and sung in your honor.

p.s. i already pissed away 800 of it, but i'm slowly working my way back up. :D

hey that damned cpu dealer keeps getting nasty fucking cards!! wtf is up with that s?

[Matt]

He's on the payroll. :lol:

[Brice]

:lol:

It was my pleasure man! Have fun and good luck to you. :)

[Daghain]

Mikey, I'm sending you $1000 as well. You deserve it! :D

[Mike Beck]

:lol:

thanks for all the donations guys. :)

i feel like the scumbag uncle that has a gambling problem, and isn't good at gambling, but the family feels bad for him so they help him out anyway.

[Randall Flagg]

Lots of things to bet on for the Superbowl.
