By popular demand, we have added 3 new games to our lineup. We now have 5-Card Everyone Wins Bingo (we play in pogo room Topics / Showcase Showdown), No Auction Dice City Rollers (Topics / Middle Class) and Monopoly Slots. We hope you enjoy these new additions as much as we do.

Next Month TrueGoldFriends will be turning 4 years old. To celebrate the occasion, we will be hosting many games and donating lots of bux. Watch the calendar for special tourneys on May 8th.

Daily Trivia is a chance to test your brain every day. 1000 bux given to the winner at the end of the month. Link is on our main page.

We try to set these tourneys as far in advance as we can, however, it’s not always possible when real life gets in the way. Many times we find extra time on our hands and will host last minute. Make sure we have your IM addy so we may let you know when this happens or check the calendar often.

We try hard to start tourneys on time and we apologize if we don’t. We appreciate when you get there on time also. If you are delayed for any reason, just let us know and we’ll either wait for you or take you out if you are running too late. We have the best and the most understanding members anyone could ask for and we thank you for that. Your understanding and support of us does not go unnoticed. If there are any problems whatsoever, we will do everything in our power to rectify it.

Let us know what you like to play, which twist and we’ll make sure we have more of them.

I want to take this opportunity to say Thank You to all my friends for your support and your prayers on the recovery of my father. It’s been a hectic 3 weeks for my family and your friendship to me has been priceless. It’s not easy accepting the big C word when it’s happening to a member of your family but coming home every night to play with my friends has meant so much to me.

After spending 2 weeks in the ICU after my dad’s surgery, he is now home and recovering. His cancer was diagnosed as stage 1 so recovery is hopeful. He’ll have to stay on oxygen for awhile and start chemo when he’s a little better. He’s still not eating much but he did stop smoking for good I hope. Guess it’s my turn next. LOL!

Thanks again for just being you and being there. Soon I will be back to hosting nonstop for you after playing catch up with work and other things.

Last month I sent out a Computer Help newsletter to your Private Message Box on our main page. Check it out! If this newsletter helps even one of you, I will be happy.

If there’s something you’d like to see in our tourneys or in our newsletters, please email or yahoo LuckyStaar.
