I got a challenge from Dolphingirl (by the way the new way they pop up on the side with the scores is cool!) When I clicked play now it said no challenges were being tested-so why was she able to send me a challenge?? I love the challenges, when will they be up again?

Funny that it happened just minutes before I enabled the feature again.  Go get her!

I just played a challenge with Eduardo. The challenge was for 50 hands. The game let me play one extra hand, showing -1 in the hand area. Dashboard shows 51/50 for hands played.

Ugh. 51 hands?Do you know if you tried to deal immediately or did it just sit there at zero waiting for another deal?  Did it let you complete the 51st hand or just deal it out?Anyone else have this happen yet? I don't know if it's related to the DDS game or the contest engine at this point.

I played a 50 hand challenge from Eduardo last night.  No problems - after the 50th hand it gave me the "Challenge Completed" screen.  I got my part of the play in before Eduardo started, if that helps.

As I remember it sat there at zero. I don't know what prompted me to click on deal.(wasn't trying to cheat)
It let me complete the deal and draw then came up the message complete. Like it just miscounted.

I think I've found the source of the mystery 51 hands and it would only take place in a few unusual circumstances. Should be able to correct it shortly.

Just finished a challenge with Eduardo. The game was letting me play after the 100 hands were used up. I quit after 4 extra hands, clicked on the Forum to report and was taken to the end of contest screen. They showed as minus hands and the score did record.
It's a good thing I reported the big winning hand early so he won't think I cheated.
Did you know that 4 Aces and a Kicker are worth 8000 in DDB when you Double Down?

Well, I gave you a number to shoot at FAYGO.  I hit 4 QQ's in the 50 hands with the last one coming on the LAST HAND.  You should be able to best me on that challenge.  Man, I'm bushed.  Heading for bed.  Catch y'all tomorrow.
