I just could not imagine a real person on the other end. The first time I spoke to someone on the messenger I was convinced that I was talking to a robot. She showed me where to download a messenger and how to add people to it so we can chat. Puffie who was an administrator asked me if I had a Messenger and I told her no. My bux were running low after just 3 days of joining and I was about to give u p on the site. I had always chatted in lobby or at the tables. I had never heard of Yahoo messenger for chatting. The first tournament I joined was Cribbage in family leagues. I read all the rules and learned how to join a tournament. A week later I decided to check out MonkeyRoyale and joined them. I wrote down the site and figured some day I would check it out. One night while waiting for players to join my table I saw someone typing about Monkeyroyale. For the most part I never really read the lobby and was concentrating on my game. I did not know anything about all the short cuts of typing but slowly started learning them. I will let you know later how I ended up eventually with the ID Darlene. I created my ID and was playing Pinochle about 14 hours a day. Someone mentioned to me Yahoo so I went to the site and found what I was looking for. I started looking for a site that might have Pinochle because it was my favorite game. I started playing on MSN and played mostly backgammon. I chose that ID because my daughter's favorite movie was Bambi. Most people might not remember me but my original Yahoo ID. I loved the site from day one that I joined in 2003. I am writing this story about MonkeyRoyale, my experience, and my memories. I came to United States in 1977 and I am an American citizen. I do not like my birth name and changed it on here. My name is Majida Ajami, but everyone knows me by Darlene Johnson. I will start this post with a little about me. BUT NOT GOING TO CHANGE ANYTHING IN THIS FOR ANYONE. THIS BLOG IS ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE AND WHAT I WITNESSED DURING MY YEARS ON MONKEYROYALE. The correction - they should only lead with their aces in trump if they only have a very few trump.I WOULD LIKE TO REMIND EVERYONE. We don’t want to help the other team, this gives them an advantage because they now know where the power for the hand is. The correction- don’t feed the person trumping, play a different suit to try and reach your partner.Ģ- When the opponent calls a trump, when my partner gets in to play, if they have aces in the trump, they play all of their aces. It doesn’t matter which team is trumping, that is what happens. My issues: 1 - when the opponent is trumping a suit, the computer continues to play back the suit that is being trumped, allowing the opposite team to score more points, which could potentially cause the bidding team to be set or miss their bid. I would like to know if anyone else has noticed these issues: I have requested several changes and no action has been taken. It is the best pinochle game that I have found in the App Store. I have been playing this game for almost a year now. For instance bid is 65 your partner says 75 that means he has meld to back you up so take the bid if you got a good hand but not a lot of meld. If your partner bids 10 above what the bid is that’s telling you he has a lot of meld. Round Robin (KQJ) in every suit 32 points (With a Run 43 points) Round House (KQ) in every suit 24 points (With a Run 35 points) Jacks Around (♠️♦️♣️♥️) Jacks in every suit 4 points 2x(Forty Jacks) 40 points Queens Around (♠️♦️♣️♥️) Queens in every suit 6 points 2x(Sixty Queens) 60 points Kings Around (♠️♦️♣️♥️) King in every suit 8 points 2x(Eighty Kings) 80 points Run (A,10,K,Q,J) in Trump suit 15 points (+4 points for every extra marriage)Īces Around (♠️♦️♣️♥️) Ace in every suit 10 points 2x(Thousand aces) 100 points Marriage (KQ) in Any suit 2 points (4 points if Trump suit) So here’s a cheat sheet for all you beginners Only thing is people could be very toxic on here because they can speak to you via microphone on their phone. This app has a very active table that plays by prison rules unlike other apps that play with 9’s. I learned Pinochle in Prison, we don’t play with 9’s.
