Replay: CGDC5 Finalists are up!
Finally, the moment we've been waiting for, the day all the finalists into our 5th Casual Gameplay Design Competition are now available to play! The extension of the deadline was well worth the wait as we now have 21 solid entries for you to enjoy. Don't forget to leave your kind feedback and constructive criticism for the game designers. [more info]
The poker tables in our private Triplejack lounge will open up early today with tournaments beginning at Noon, 12:00PM (GMT-5:00). Come join us for some Texas Hold'em poker fun, have a few laughs with us and friends, perhaps win some prizes, and enjoy lots and lots of pies!
Prizes up for grabs this week: Virtual Villagers games(!) from the kind folks at Last Day of Work, one month of Triplejack Power Player, one deck of Triplejack playing cards, and one JIG Casual Gameplay t-shirt. But, of course, that's not all. The champion of tournaments will be entered into a drawing for a fabulous grand prize: a Nintendo DS Lite! Drawing to be held Saturday, May 26, 2007.
To help things run more smoothly this week we will be requiring that you register for one of the qualifying tournaments by using the form on the registration page. But registration won't open until just before the tournaments start, so be on hand at Noon in our private Triplejack lounge to get this week's code that you will need to register. Update: the code is virtualvillagers
To get to our private lounge, either use the Triplejack login form in the sidebar or use the registration login page. See you there! =)

I can't get to your lounge! I've have a table and everything, but everytime I log in using your instructions I get put into 'Zen of Poker'!

Yay, I made it to the tourney! (Although I was 6th at my table or something), thanks, Jay!
Quick idea: instead of having someone in the lobby yelling out the registration details, just create a chatroom called "How to Enter" and leave the details as a welcome message. If there are any questions, they can be discussed in the same room.

Ehm Jay, everybody who got 1st and 2nd should say so.
Well, I got 2nd in table #4

Question : when having lost at a table, can one enter another table? For instance, the first loosers of tables 1 to 4 entered table 6... I didn't try.
Nevertheless, thanks for organizing such an event, with such prizes!

Jay,
I had the proper lounge ID in my URL, still couldn't get to the lounge. I met someone else, Jackell, who had the same issue.
I cleared cache and cookies, still didn't work.
Any ideas?

Sorry I could not respond earlier, I had my hands full.
When signing in using our login form here on this site, if you end up in the Zen lounge, just click on the "Back to lounges" button at the top of the game window (just under the words Triplejack). That should get you to the lounge select screen where the JIG lounge is visible.
I am sorry you had trouble finding us. :(

Yes, logged in through here.
Also had gone back to lounge selection screen -- saw only the newbie and zen lounges.
Is there some sort of Flash cache that might need to get cleared?
Posted by: flyboy23 | February 3, 2007 5:47 PM
Oh dear. That doesn't sound encouraging. That's a question for grand master of ceremonies, Zen Blender, I'm afraid.
The good news is the kind folks at TJ are working on a login form we can use to go directly to the JIG lounge. So, I think they are aware of the issues that some people are having and they are working on a remedy for it. =)
I hope you'll be able to make our next Poker Night, tournaments for which will begin at 3PM (Eastern) next Saturday.
