Thanks for the kind words, Dave:) It's true, I took the plunge and bought a nice Crokinole board 2 years ago that ended up making the rounds in the Boston...
I actually got the recommendation for this spray from the Pichenotte board guys in albuquerque NM: Formby's Lustre (comes in Almond and Lemon); it's a fine...
... I just got a response from Pat. Almond Luster made by Formby's. He sprayed it on lightly, wiped it down. I saw the spray in April when I last saw Pat and...
I posted a photo of my crokinole board in the photo section of this group. I bought mine on ebay from a seller named 'sawdust-jim'. He apparently is not...
... It's off to a great start! Of course having a great topic to discuss helps too ;) As others have stated, thanks for setting it up! ... No problem. But...
This is the first Yahoo group I have moderated. If you have any ideas on how it should be set up or ways to get others interested, I'd love to hear them....
... You would be disappointed :) I started and abandoned the effort twice - mostly getting no further than scribbling on the back of envelopes. I mostly...
... Great Dave! I'm looking forward to seeing what you have. I spent my morning looking around for rating/review software. I found a couple of things. My...
... It's a good idea. An opinion on one board from an owner/player is good - and a collection of these is very useful. But not quite as useful as an opinion...
... I have several good pics of my board and other boards from the area. I'll try to dig up something. We can have a "rotating" picture if we don't want to...
I'd like to start putting together something like a definitive guide to Crokinole boards. What I see is a listing of the different board sources and...
... Good idea, Dave. Unfortunately, http://www.pichenotte.com no longer exists. I found the content of their site on archive.org, but they don't archive...
... Don't use Pledge! I think the buildup is real. There is a spray that Pat Obrien used for his board based on recommendation from Wanye Kelly (again, going...
This opens up the question of Mespi (?) powder as well. but that's a separate topic. I've had my board for over a year now and it's starting to slow down. I ...
... I still can't believe you've managed to escape Crokinole and still live in the confines of Eastern MA. That's what you get for missing UG3 and UG4 :) I'll...
... Hey Scott! I think your's is the only board I've _not_ played on in the area. We are lucky to have a half dozen different mfr boards in the area to try....
... I've played Carroms a bit - don't like it as much as Crokinole but it's fun. Just last week someone at work (who knows I love Crokinole) gave me an old...
... First off, thanks for the group, Chris. I remember playing Carroms a lot as a kid. Every now and then we'd flip the board over and play on the Crokinole...
... Anyone complains, we'll just have to remind them that, after all, they are in the Walpole Mall. Sure, it's got an Old Navy, but it's still across the...
... -snip- ... I bought one of those boards! Thanks to Dave's board, I also became addicted! I ended up buying one off of ebay from Sawdust Jim. The board is...
... Well, my history of finding the game is best told as a story about how the game became popular around here. I know Crokinole goes back a long way. And...
... Yeah, so everyone can read the first post, and the True First Post. Heh. ... Thor and I have gotten in some killer contests as of late, mostly my killing...
OK. In an effort to get everyone involved, I'm interested in learning how everyone found this game? I remember when Dave Vander Ark showed me his board for...
... I haven't played much this summer - but have still managed more than about 100 games of Crokinole this year. Iv'e got a new partner for the local...
... Welcome, Dave! Please invite some of the other nolers in your group. I'll open the archives. Thanks for suggesting it. I haven't played a serious game...
Hey, found the group - looks great Chris - I like the open membership. Maybe consider opening the archives to anyone so folks can see what's going on which...
Welcome to the Crokinole Yahoo! group. We plan to discuss all things Crokinole here, including rules, board preferences, variants, strategy, and anything else...
