  All Windows users can now play at GameColony.com with Java 8 with a very small GameColony add-on script!
  Within days, we'd make a GameColony add-on for Mac users as well.
  If you have Windows and Java 8 installed, GameColony will ask you to download and run a very small add-on script
  The add-on script may ask you to select the user. Please select 'Administrator'.
  When the add-on reports 'success!', you'd need to close and restart your browser.
  If you update your Java 8 installation, GameColony will ask you to re-run the add-on.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!. 
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!).   The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
