Please do not update your Chrome browser - it will break Java!
If you have the newest version of Google's Chrome, we suggest switching to a different browser e.g. Internet Explorer or Firefox browser ( www.firefox.com )
After Chrome's latest Apr 14, 2015 update, it will no longer run Java by default.
You can still enable Java in new Chrome, however, in the following way:
STEP 1. While in Chrome, go to the following URL in your browser:
chrome://flags/#enable-npapi
STEP 2. on the very top of the page, you will need to select "Enable" for "NPAPI Mac, Windows"
STEP 3. Select "Relaunch Now" button on the bottom
STEP 4. You should be able to run Java. If Java still does not run on your system, you'll need to download and install Java from www.java.com

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.
