PLAY SQUARES BY EMAIL

Ever find yourself in the need of an opponent for "SQUARES - The Civil War Battle Game" but just couldn't find one. Well at the suggestion of one of our faithful followers, we instituted this PLAY by EMAIL page.


Here you can find other players looking for opponents, and register to have your email address posted so other SQUARES players can find you. The cost is FREE. To register just submit the information in the form below.


Once we receive your information, we will send you a follow up email;

  1. to double check your email address,
  2. to confirm that it really was you that submitted the form,
  3. to get your confirmation that we may post your information.

BUT WAIT!

You ask - "Won't all the spammers just pull my email address off this page and then bombard me with their junk?"


We cannot guarantee that this will not happen. However, we are taking precautions to eliminate as much of this as possible. First there is our confirmation process before we post your info. Second, we encode your email address on this page. We have replaced all of the "@" symbols in the email address with the characters "_at_". This should make the address undetectable by any automatic spammer scanners (since the "@" symbol is a key search character in looking for email addresses).


PLEASE NOTE: when writing to anyone that has submitted an email address, you must replace the "_at_" characters with the "@" character.


ALSO - we will NOT provide any information to anyone at any price for any reason outside of what is posted here. We would like your mailing address for our records (in case we need to contact you non-electronically). Your mailing address will NOT be posted, nor will it be provided to anyone.

WORLD WIDE RATINGS

At the end of the game, both players sign a letter indicating the required WWR information:
  • Date of Game
  • Opponent's Name
  • Result of Game
  • Final Attrition Score of Game
  • Bonus Points Scored (both players)
  • Player's Game Points for recorded game
  • Player's Running Total of Number of Opponents Defeated
  • Player's Running Total of Game Points
  • Player's Current WWR (recorded game included)
  • Signature
Mail it to DVGC along with a stamped blank envelope to: 
     Deer Valley Game Company 
     c/o PBEM
     P.O. Box 31661
     Mesa, Az. 85275-1661
We will match the letters when we get them, verify the information is the same on each letter, and forward your signed letter on to your opponent (as well as sending you his letter). If there are any discrpancies we will notify you by email before using your stamped envelope to return your letter to you.
