| If it smells like the Fountain.. and sounds like the Fountain.. but doesn't look like the Fountain.. it's still the Fountain!

Well, June has wrapped up, and we have some tournament winners to announce!
For the first half, in Slingo Delux, mima1313 took home top prize with an astounding 93,500 score. noone gobbled up 2nd place and vttym managed 3rd in the hotly contested tourny.
The second half of June saw new winners for Mahjongg: Alchemy. Virtual was top dog with 34,183 points. cousinjodisfriend picked up 2nd place, and noone scooped up 3rd. Great job!
With a new month comes new tournaments, so get ready! QB Challenge will kick off July, and Ultimate Greed Poker Slingo will close it out. Expect to see a slew of new games this month as well (And SOONER than the last day of the month.. hopefully  ).
So it's a chance for Virtual to get a bunch more 1st place finishes.

Well, it's a good thing the word "few" can mean 3-4.. since I did say I'd add games in a "few" weeks..
Well, the wait was worth it.. 39 new games were added to the ranks. Unlike previous times, I have NOT prescreened these games (because I forget that more people than myself play, and everyone has different tastes!)
As a result, I have created a category called "New" where games I have not yet tested go. Games in this category might not work, or might not allow you to submit a score (we've had a few of those in the past). I will likely have these all tested by week's end, and you'll see them in appropriate categories as I do.
But in the meantime, go out .. er.. stay here.. and play!

Just wanted to let everyone know that starting in June, I will run 2 tournaments a month, 15 days each. The tournament payouts are also going to be increased, so you get less time between games to make more!

Hey everyone. Another busy month in the gaming department. A couple of updates.
Congrats to noone for taking 5k by being the champion of 247 golf! Virtual took second place, and cousinjohn grabbed the bronze. This month's game is Pyramid Solitaire, so good luck!
We had a few new games added last month, which saw some great playtime. Be sure to go through the categories from time to time, as I don't always announce new games.
I should be bringing on another 30 or so games in the next few weeks to keep things fresh, and as always if you have requests, let me know!
I also changed the scoreboards to show the top 10 scores of alltime. It will still show last month's leading scorer, but I think this will allow more folks to have some names in lights .
Keep on gaming!

So I'm back from a great trip to Blacksburg this weekend, and have a day to recoup before a flight out to California tomorrow, so I figure I'll kill a few hours rocking out the drums on Rock Band, you know.. keep the skills sharp and all that.
So I'm banging through Sabotage by the Beastie Boys when suddenly the game freezes. Not the first time its happened (though the first time in Rock Band), so I reboot.
To the dreaded Red-Ring-Of-Death. Some of you longer readers of the fountain may remember me bitching about this a couple of years ago.
Well, this would be Xbox #4 coming now. I placed a call and will have the box shipped out to be fixed. At this point, I'd kinda like a new one, since this one obviously just isn't compatible with me, but whatever.
The bitch of this is, I'm going to miss out on the launch of Grand Theft Auto 4. I will need to find a way to get around this, and I'm not really sure how I will accomplish this yet. Maybe buy the system used somewhere that has a return policy and go that route... who knows.
Bottom line - it sucks. If the system wasn't as great as it is, I'd have moved on by now, but.. well.. it is.
