Not sure what to do View

I have gone to the chat room in an effort to find a game, maybe... I am just there at the wrong time, I don't know... don't see anybody using it to set up a game, but I sometimes run across players from here playing... and I see there has been activity on ladder... is there something else I need to know to find a game, would like to play, just let me know when if you could, somebody...plz - TY

  Unfortunately we do not have enough members in cases...maybe because it is difficult to get a game.
  I remember back in the days how case players complained about not being able to get a game.I was playing ten plus games a day while in the top twenty. Now you are lucky to find a game.
  I am not able to access the "cases singles lobby" because they want you to sign up for a membership of sorts.
  So I usually go to playok and check out the number of players in the san diego lounge and go in on occasion to see who is there.
  And on several occasion I find a game in progress but you are unable to go to the table because it is set on private.
  I do believe that is not permissible and now that we do not have a lounge readily available, we should be able to ask for a game at the table.
  If those in the top twenty are now willing to make themselves available for games they should request their name be removed from the top twenty.
  Take Care...Yogi

  I believe the problem lies in inactivity of the Ladder. Not many are playing, when they want a game, get 2 or 3 in lounge, and then send out a Text Message looking for players, and responders just show up in the Ladder Match Lounge and Chat Room is totally left out. This has been an issue for a couple of years.
  I think the answer is to recruit and get more playing.
  If anyone has a good solution, by all means, share it with us.
  Thanks,

  No one is ever there when I go to chat either - can't blame me for trying to get a game - I just go the PlayOK and play a regular game, just like I used to do in yahoo lounges.

  That being said, players go to the chat lobby and no one is there, tough to get a game, when no one shows up. then off to playok, and we see players hanging out, message gets you a game, right or wrong. We have so few players playing in the singles, its pretty pathetic.

    I think it should be done the old fashion way via request for game made at the table.
    However, I can see the need for a chat room for team pinochle but not so much individual.
