Okay. I play the ten of diamonds.

We haven't figured out what's trump yet.

I thought you guys took care of that when I was in the bathroom. I said I passed.

Ooh, I'd be really in to this if I didn't feel icky. Rain check!

Darn it. I'll lose without you as my partner. I'm sure of it.

I'm gonna need a rum and coke for this.

If anyone wants to play actual (virtual) euchre, I'm in Yahoo's Social Lounge 7. I'm evil_spoon over there.

Well not to brag, but I'm not all that shabby. I'll head over. (python_365)

Pick it up, BITCH!

Oh, sorry, had a flashback to a dorm room about twenty years ago.

Metachat Yahoo Euchre Meetup. In attendance: goatdog, kyleg, agropyron (did I spell that right?) for a short time.

goat and kyle lose their first game. :(

However, they win their second one.

Yeah, I just popped in long enough to realize that I wasn't going to pick up euchre by watching for 2 minutes. I'll read the help files or something.

I have no idea what euchre is or how to play it. But Go Team! Er, Teams!

Too late for me to join in, but I am a euchre monster. I have been awarded the R.O.O.T.E.A.* Maybe next time I'll sit in.

And then they won their third game.

posted by goatdog 07 December | 01:19

And then they won their fourth game, and goatdog went to bed after heartily recommending kyleg as a euchre partner.

posted by goatdog 07 December | 01:34

Aw, thanks goatdog. A good time was had by all. And Team MeCha kicked some ass.

posted by kyleg 07 December | 01:37

I was down the street and sauced on Christmas Ale, sorry I couldn't join in. Maybe tonight? (caveat_rex on Y!)

Ooh, I'm in next time if it isn't on a skool nite after midnight.

When I was really bored a while back I did a stupid three part blog series on the rules of Double Bid Euchre. 1 2 3 [selflinks, and part ii isn't showing up for some reason which I will try to remedy.]

posted by sciurus 07 December | 09:18

Oh man, I'm sorry I missed this. Next time you guys play be sure to hit me up. I'm greasy_skillet on Y! messenger.

posted by greasy_skillet 07 December | 10:18

I would enjoy a game or two myself...It's been years, but I used to enjoy the euchre.
Post another thread, or email me if you guys plan something again?

posted by richat 07 December | 11:18

sciurus, thanks for the articles on the rules of Double Bid euchre. Maybe one day I can get on a beginner's game with a couple of other new players.
