Hi, I love the ambitious approach you are finally making to help let more players aware how wonderful the games really can be !
Unfortunately the video clip is lacking " skill ", whereas, maybe a presenter that can actually show some enthusiasm ( a player can provide this, hint hint ). Something non scripted would prove more interesting. Mentioning facts relating to being able to actually play for the worlds most popular games like Gin and Backgammon head-to-head for as little as $0.50. Mentioning other facts like how long GC has been in business would also help build trust in future players. The next thing to do would be to make the pledge donation a lot simpler by offering PayPal instead of Amazon. I can only imagine how many visits the possible pledgers have given to through to the Amazon page and then given up because they either dont have an Amazon account or simply dont remember their log in info. Please consider my tips.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
