The only difference is they have stupid names. If they're private they'll be labeled as such and require a password.

I saw on their Jobs page they were looking for a new Table Namer.


actually, i thought this job was eliminated? last person that had it was walter rhea and i don't need to tell you the rest of the story on walter, but suffice it to say his termination was not avoidable.
anyhoo, i think party named tables until one point, then just stopped. the names there are probably original names from the time where it was feasible to actually name them all.

i'd bet that unless there is a message to convey (special tourney etc), that they will never name another table again.

Ok, so say you buy a couple of cows and a bull.. Maybe you really like them, and you give them pretty precious names.. Soon they get baby cows, who make more baby cows, and so on.. After some time you have 200 cows.. Did you name them all?

I was gonna dip my toes in this thread with the exact same message as yours, but Mike got ahead of me, and his answer was, albeit not 100% correct, still much better so I kept my toes dry instead. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Seriously, though, I think it is a sloppy decision by Party to not name all their tables. Hire someone skilled in programming and language stuff, and they will come up with N+1 decent names in no time. The whole playing environment, in view of the important recreational player, would be much better with named tables.

(On second thought, perhaps the lobby would be too cluttered with so many named tables of various character length.)

Yes. One of my mom's coworker's husband breeds cattle. Each year they name them before taking them to auction. They use a different first letter each year so that they can keep track of when they sold that particular cow. I remember one year she had hell trying to come up with over 100 female names that started with a J [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
