Hi. New to the group so I thought I'd make an introduction. I havn't had a board or played in years but have great memories associated with it. Playing at my...
Hey Kevin, Thanks for telling your story. I can hardly imagine the mix of conflicting emotions, and the drastic re-evaluating of what is important in your...
Geoff, The board I am so anxiously awaiting is "Mr Lucky" I found it's name entirely appropiate to my situation. I'm glad to see someone else plan a menu that...
Sorry to post a novice question but... The scenario: one black and one white on the board in the 15 ring white shoots misses black but drives the existing...
... If the shooter does not make contact with an opponent's disc (assuming there is an opponent's disc on the board) the disc that was was shot that round and...
I was surfing yesterday checking out possible sellers of crokinole boards. I have played on a friend's board before I moved from Houston to Austin, Texas. It...
... Hi, Welcome a"board".(Groan) If you're interested in the round tournament style boards, they can be a bit finicky to build unless you have a well equipped...

Hi all, I received my registration form for the tournament this summer, and I noticed they had a question on the form that I thought would be interesting to...
Hi Dale, my thoughts would be that the button that was moved by the stray button should be put back, as close to where it was, to the agreement of both...
I favor Dale's approach to this situation, and I hope that the WCC will also come to this same decision. It just seems too difficult (and unnecessary) to ...
Hi Paul; I take the opposite approach to this question. In my view, as soon as a button crosses the bottom line, at that point it becomes a dead button....
Hi all, I like the idea that the puck is dead and everything is returned to the original spot. I believe the rule's purpose stops uncontrolled shots and...
... "Button"?! Wow, and to think I've teased a non-gaming friend for calling her pieces, "buttons", when they were clearly discs. Hmmmmm.... ... That's how we...
Yes, BUTTON. Perhaps its my Mennonite background, but thats what anyone I know has always called them. Same as the "center" is a doogie, not a pocket, or...
Here is my two cents. Leave it as it lies. It is too difficult to put the disc's back where you think they were before the shot was taken. Until there is ...
Why then would they have the bottom line? Logically this doesn't make sense. How can a disc which goes out of play affect discs which are in play? If a disc...
I believe that the displaced disc(s) be relocated to the spot prior to the shot. As competitive a sport as Crokinole is I would hope there is enough civility ...
We play that the shooter must end completely within the 15 ring in the event of a free shot. However we are not sure how to handle this situation. Let's say I...
I would say the original button would stay on the board. It seems to me you are borrowing a situation where you loose any contacted buttons when attempting a...
... I believe that the official rules don't require your shooting disk to be entirely within the 15 circle, so anything pertaining to other disks is rather...
As I think more on this I believe that Paul is correct on one point. The "must end up in the 15 circle" rule is only applicable on shots where there is a clear...
... I'm not exactly sure what Paul is referring to when he says "OFFICIAL" rules... I can only assume he means the rules used at the World Crokinole...
... Actually, I think that you do have to put a shot to the 15 when there are no opponents' discs on the board, whether or not you ahve other discs in play. ...
Hmmm.. let us look another situation. For example, a disc leaves the playing surface, hits the outside rail and bounces back onto the surface. Same situation...
Well, in several hundred games I've never seen this. Perhaps you guys need to be tested for performance enhancing substances prior to playing... or maybe your...
