Good evening everyone. Like many of you I was introduced to crokinole when I was much younger. Memories of sittting at the kitchen table on my grandparent's...
Hi, I have recently taken delivery of a crokinole board made by the English board game makers, Jaques. Interestingly, they claim to be the originators of this...
... Well, the game's been around since at least the 1800's, I think. If they've been around that long, they might have a claim. ... You would think that after...
On november 11-14, 2004, The Games Club of Maryland will be hosting Euroquest, a boardgaming convention, in Timonium Maryland. We plan to have a crokinole...
My board arrived yesterday and it is absolutely beautiful. Thanks to everyone who recommended the Hilinkskis. I already have planes to get a second board in...
... It is gorgeous. What Mike failed to do is let y'all see the board which is here: http://www.hilinski.net/woodgames/crokinole_gallery/Blind_Justice.jpg...
... I only saw it yesterday and watched Mike teach someone else how to play. As an observer, and someone who took some practice shots, I didn't find it...
I would think that the 'distraction' would keep the board off the wall or from behind the couch and played more often. what a great way to add interest to the...
Good eening all. What happens when the discs are stacked during play. You know, the disc catches the lip of the 20 hole, becomes airborn and lands on the other...
yes. While I've never seen this happen, a guy from my game group (and part of this forum) has and has a picture of it. As I recall, you continute to play....

... I found it interesting that some of the older rules I've seen (from The Crokinole Book) have you leave alone a disc in the 20 hole. Your opponent can then...
... I have uploaded the picture I took of the stacked disks. It happened shortly after we got our board. My two oldest kids were playing and when it happened...
The following link is a item from the CBC news service about noise levels of modern toys and children's hearing. Another plug for the crokinole advocates to...
... I got to play a few games on the board last night and I can now say that I was in no way distracted by the art. The board is faster that my Eagle and I can...
... I've been thinking about a 3P board. Are there any rule differences? Must you hit either opponents disc, or just one of them (i.e. left-hand opponent, or...
On Fri, 15 Oct 2004 19:26:56 -0000, "Bobby Warren" ... I thought it was because you were too afraid to take me on last time you visited. -- Ed Rozmiarek ...
... differences? ... played ... I've got a 3-player board and love it. I'm not sure if there are any official rules to the game, but we play where either...
I just want to add something about the Blind Justice board. The artwork was done by Penny Hauffe, a good friend who has done all of our artwork. Her...
Just got back from Essen 2004, and one of the surprises of the fair was a new game called "Wey-Kick". It is played on a Crokinole-sized board, but with a goal...
... I did not have the ability to carry one back, so I didn't buy one at the fair. I'm contemplating buying one through mail order, though. If I get one, I'll...
