With the Thanksgiving holiday soon approaching, looks like it’s time I finish up some painting around our home. My wife has taped about every piece of trim we have in our home so I’m guessing that’s some sort of hint to get things moving. Concerning the site, I’ve been working hard on our new pages. I created a very nice chart for the dominoes strategy guide (American-style) that should help to explain the process I’ve developed to play the game. I didn’t realize dominoes was so popular. From the NY Times:
The games almost always draw spectators, so perhaps it is no surprise that the ESPN sports network has declared dominoes the next big spectator sport and is promoting it as both a colorful cultural touchstone and a highly competitive game, complete with rankings, formal tournaments, celebrity events and sponsors.
I’ll be working more on this guide in the coming weeks, including a fair amount of playtesting on the many dominoes-playing sites such as Yahoo and Pogo. It’s not uncommon to find several thousand players enjoying the game at any given time day or night. What a powerful, explosive scoring game American Dominoes is!
