rabbitoid: yes I noticed that as well ;( where i used to have 20-25 games (ponds) going at once now it is flat out getting 10-15.....I think if you leave your numbers of entry open you might fare better...instead of 16/- or 16/16 make it say 12 or even 8....see what happens...JMO

BerniceC: at least 16 is required to start a pond.

Vikings: OH :( i didnt realize that not having set up a pond in about 8-9 months....call it short memory LOLOL

Well, the answer seems to be definitely "yes". Unless something is done soon, the pond system is dead.

I'm suspending the creation of the daily ponds until the backlog goes down a bit. Currently there are 20 ponds that can't be started because of an insufficient number of participants, 8 of them mine. I have started ponds until May 2nd. There's really no point anymore to start new ones.

rabbitoid: I have stopped playing because of the holiday season is upon us ,i think alot of people may have stopped for this reason

Jason:
Just out of curiosity, what Holiday season? Only thing coming up is Mothers day and its only 1 day

No holidays in the near future around here.

Baked Alaskan: He means summer holidays, vacation time

Rose:

Oh just a summer thing?
Cause a holiday to me is Christmas, Thanxgiving, Mothers Day, Independence day etc etc

So why is a holiday (summer vaction to others?)
I dont get it LOL

Baked Alaskan: different cultures, differnt terminology I spose. I call it the same thing, on holidays when it's vacation time

Rose:
Guess its just an American thing huh?
Kind of like we dont use the metric system either LOL


Well, SUMMER VACATION is here LOL

Baked Alaskan: Memorial day maybe, that is a 3-day weekend for most

Vikings: I think another factor in pond games is the creation of stairs, I have noticed thatsince its creation, there are many other tournys that haven't started up.

rabbitoid: I played for a while but I just got bored with it. Sorry you are having trouble enjoying your game.
You could always switch to Ludo. That is good for a day or two. (no more ;))

rabbitoid:
I'm not bored with them yet but do need 3 days or more to play. The 1 and 2 day ponds are just to much.
I see most the ponds waiting to start are just that, 1 and 2 days.
