In case you haven't heard, there's a new game around here. We now have Blackjack, due to popular demand. Let any community leader or myself know what you think, or post here. Still got a few minor things to add, such as showing the cards to the sightees, but we'll phase that in over time. Thanks, as always, for your patronage.

I love this blackjack game. I did manage to lose thousands of points from it, but it is addicting and I commend you for it. My boss may want to kill you though. LOL

Cool game :) however, since I love having others debug here are two things I noticed that might (or might not) need fixing:
One
When you are shown the cards you draw, can you change the format to
you draw:
ten of spades
9 of hearts
...
instead of saying
You draw the 10 of spades and the
nine of hearts.

Keeping the cards that you draw on a line by themselves makes it quicker to see right away what you got instead of having to read the "you draw the" line every time.

I also noticed that I got two aces and it said that I either had 2 or 12 points. That makes no sense to me since an ace can be a one or a 10 so I should have, 2, 11, or 20 points .. or at least I think so (I am not the expert so may be this is totally normal).
Otherwise good job .. I'm still disappointed I haven't seen the pictionary game I was promised <grin>
cheers

AAh, I was being stupid there <grin>
I finally bothered to read the rules and I found out ace is 11, so the aces could have been 2, 12 or 22 and 22 is worthless .. so that explains this situation ...

I think you should try to make an interactive version of this game, if possible, where we can play against each other instead of the computer. just an idea.

There really needs to be a sports game here, where, for example, you could create a player of a sport and play and compete with other players. Or AI of no players are online and stuff. For example, decide what you're gonna do etc.

Just a suggestion.

I love this game since I can earn a lot of points, sometimes loose a lot as well, but who knows, depends on luck... well, good job. I like what the dealer says... whose voice was that? *smile*.
