Chat Log

In the lower-right corner of the game screen is the Chat Log (2). This contains text messages from the game, as well as messages from your opponent and anyone observing. You can use the scrollbar to travel up the log and read old messages – a useful feature, since plenty can happen in a game and you might want to go back and read about it.

Game Messages

Any message relating to the events of the game starts with an asterisk. For example:

Cards mentioned in the Log will be underlined, and in colored text. You can click on any of these underlined names to make a magnified image of that card appear on screen. Click on that magnified image to close it.

Messages from other players start with the player’s name, such as:

You can type messages into the Chat Log and send them by pressing the Enter key.

In games with observers, it may be necessary to direct your text at a certain player. You can begin a text message by typing /st (player name) or /msg (player name) to send a private whisper to that player. (For example: To whisper a private message to Vicki, you’d type: /msg Vicki Come to see me get smashed?)
