• August 9th - Graal Skills Tournaments

This weekend we will hold several free tournaments and tournaments where you can win Gelats - play Poker, Pool Billiard, BomberMad and more against other players! We have also improved the skill games to make the playing more fun:

• The game window is bigger, we removed the clouds-header
• The tournament announcement PM leads you directly to the tournament list
• When a tournament is added then a blinking link will appear in the Log window for easily joining the tournament
• When inviting a player to a game then it is automatically selecting the best rule for the selected game (Bombermad: 3 Rounds) to make things easier
• You can bet up to 50 gelats in Poker (might be increased later)
• Nicknames are filtered (some special characters being removed) to avoid problems in multiplayer flash games
• Easier navigation with keyboard: 'Space' starts a game, card games automatically select the first button in the start screen, when closing a game then it is automatically focussing the game list
