KnightFighter: I think some card games would be hard to play on a turned based game site, but for example

Black Jack - it would be easy to hit/double/split - have up to 10 other "real" players playing - then after all 10 make their move (within the time limit) - the "dealer"/computer plays against the ones who did not bust. [Each person starts with a set amount of coins - out of coins, lose - or possible play a set number of rounds with the person with the most at the last round wins.]

Texas Hold 'em, Poker - Just go around - not too many notes would be needed.

Rummy - simple enough, no notes would be needed.

Some others might be a little more difficult, but possible some small "tweaks" to the rules where players play against the "house/computer" instead of against other live people could work for some games.

For games where what the other player has in their hands can effect others, figuring out how to handle time outs will take a little planning.

KnightFighter: why do we have to wake up? Fencer has already said he is working on a card game. And as has been stated, another turn based site has card games.

rod03801: card games are closed games and they relay on memory and rapid respose ... after few days of waiting for a discard or bet from opponent the whole beauty of card game is gone ... do not fool yourself ... by looking at the discards you get idea and plan for your game ... if you won't make notes you will forget what you had in mind ... it doesn't make sense,
in chess and any board game it's fine to waitfor opponent's move but not in a card game ... in a board game nothing is missing, everything is in front of your eyes, today and in two years from today... card games are different spieces ... differentr dynamics.

KnightFighter: I'm not fooling myself. I have been part of turn based sites for many years now, as I'm sure you probably have too. I have also been playing card games practically my whole life, and am quite aware of the limitations. Yes, a huge majority of card games would not work. (At least not in a "satisfying" way)

My point was that no one needs to "wake up". Fencer has already said a card game is coming.

There is already at least one turn based site that successfully has card games, as well.

rod03801: It won't be a turn based game. It also means that it won't work on WebTV and similar devices, unless they fully implement JavaScript specification (which is very unlikely).

Fencer: Neat!

So, wow, that's even MORE exciting! Do you have plans of multiple types of card games then, at some point? I love cards!!! I can't wait!

WebTV fully implementing JavaScript specification is not only unlikely, but also I believe impossible. lol. I'm surprised anyone still uses that device. I did for many years, but would never go back to it, now. It just hasn't kept up with the times. It was a good thing 10 years ago. I try to talk people into switching from WebTV to computer quite a bit now.

KnightFighter: your true in a sence but we have allready a game or games we make notes like
Espionage where you make notes on squares value and position before it disapears back to a question mark
