Introduction to 500:
If you ask Kacaier, you know that this game was coming sooner than later. Tonight's game is that of 500 which is the national card game of Australia. 500 is a card game that I have played some with my grandparents in the past and we've had a quite a bit of fun with it. Why? Well, 500 is a combination of two games that I find very interesting. 500 is a combination of Euchre and Bridge. Essentially the rank of the cards is the same as in Euchre as there are the Bowers, but the Joker is the highest card. While the bidding is very much like that of Bridge. It's a fun game, pretty easy to learn and I think you'll enjoy it.
About The Websites:
I decided to make things a lot more centralized for this particular event. I have created a site that I will be consistently updating with all of the rules for all of the games that we have played here at BlizzForums. Check it out at:
http://www.swoopzone.net/gamenight/. This web site will also list the current champion from the previous week's games and will also have a full detail of the event's history.
How to Sign Up:
Easy process. Go to:

If you have any questions about their service, let me know.
