GOOD MORNING CHITTR DOT ING. I HAVE SURVIVED THE EVENTS OF MY LAST POST ON HERE. FOR MY OWN SAKE AFTER WAKING UP FROM A SLUMBER SO DEEP I HAD AN IMPRINT OF MY KISMESIS'..."BREASTPLATE" ON MY FACE, I REFRAINED FROM POSTING ANYTHING LEST I WENT ON ANOTHER RANT ABOUT INBOXES AGAIN. POKER REVIEW SOONER-THAN-LATER. STARTING OFF TODAY OFF STRONG WITH COFFEE AND ASPRIN
SOMEONE FUCKING MENTIONED UNØ AND NOBODY TOLD ME?! THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! THIS IS A CRIME AGAINST TROLLS AND HUMANITY! THIS. IS. BULLSHIT.
I WENT TO BED AFTER THE LAST CHITT, I'LL TAKE THAT NOTCH ON MY BELT FOR QUITE POSSIBLY INCITING THE STRIP-POKER TALKS FROM EARLIER. I'M NOT PROUD ABOUT IT BUT I WON'T LOOK MY GIFT HOOFBEAST IN THE MOUTH
NOT A SINGLE CARD GAME MENTIONED AT ALL IN THE PAST SETTING AND RISING OF THE SUN. WHAT HAS CHITTR DOT ING FALLEN TO? HAVE WE NO CLASS ANYMORE? AND STRIP-POKER DOESN'T COUNT SINCE HALF OF YOU ALWAYS HAVE YOUR PANS IN THE GUTTER ANYWAY WITH EVEN LESS CLOTHING THAN USUAL.
SOLITAIRE! OR IF YOU'RE A FUCKING NERD, KLONDIKE! A SINGLE PLAYER CARD GAME THIS TIME AROUND. YOU TAKE YOUR AVERAGE CARD DECK CONSISTING OF 52 CARDS AND YOU TAKE OUT THE JOKERS, BASIC SHIT. AFTER YOU SHUFFLE YOUR DECK YOU CREATE A SPREAD OF SEVEN FANNED CARD PILES, EACH CONSISTING OF ONE MORE CARD THAN THE PREVIOUS, THE CARD AT THE TOP ALWAYS FACING UPWARDS, THE REMAINING CARDS ARE PLACED FACING DOWNWARDS IN AN UPPER CORNER OF YOUR LAYOUT SEPARATE FROM THE ALREADY MADE PILES. YOU THEN WANT TO SET UP A SPOT FOR YOUR 4 FOUNDATIONS FOR THE SUITS, DIAMONDS, SPADES, ETC. YOU START BUILDING THESE UP AS THE ...Read more
GAMBLING! WE ALL LOVE IT OR HATE IT IN OUR OWN WAYS, BUT NONETHELESS WE KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO IT. ANOTHER EASY GAME THIS TIME: BLACKJACK. NO, NOT *THAT* BLACK-JACK FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE PLAYED A DUBIOUS GAME WITH YOUR FRIENDS THAT ARRIVED IN THE MAIL. THE RULES ARE SIMPLE; TAKE YOUR STANDARD DECK OF 52 CARDS AND REMOVE THE JOKERS, YOU WANT TO BEAT THE DEALER BY GETTING AS CLOSE TO 21 OR 21 *EXACTLY* WITHOUT GOING OVER OTHERWISE YOU 'BUST,' EUGH. BOTH YOU AND THE DEALER RECEIVE TWO CARDS, BOTH OF YOUR CARDS ARE FACE UP WHILE ONLY ONE CARD IS FACE UP FOR THE DEALER. WHEN THE CARDS ARE DEALT AND IT IS...Read more
QUICK AND EASY ONE THIS TIME AGAIN; OLD MAID, YOU REMOVE A SINGULAR QUEEN FROM A STANDARD DECK OF 52 CARDS AND DISH THEM OUT BETWEEN YOURSELF AND THE OTHER PLAYER, YOU REMOVE ANY PAIRS FROM YOUR HAND AND THEN START TAKING CARDS FROM YOUR OPPONENT'S HAND. THE GOAL OF THE GAME IS TO NOT HAVE THE 'QUEEN' CARD AT THE END OF IT, SO HAVING A GOOD POKER FACE WHEN IT'S YOUR OPPONENT'S TURN TO TAKE ONE OF YOUR CARDS IS KEY. IF YOUR GANDERBULBS CAN ACHIEVE SUCH A FEAT; ANALYZE THE DESIGN ON THE BACK OF THE QUEEN CARD. OR SIMPLY KNOW YOUR OPPONENT'S TELLS, EITHER WORKS REALLY. NOT A BAD GAME SOLID 8/10
