Skat 7/16/07 10:49 PM

I have discovered that yes, I can play Skat even though I do not speak German. I can even activate the Skat diploma pieces, though I have no idea if they will show up on my profile when in US English mode. I have Hunt #5 going now, which requires you to win 10 games. #12 is the other piece of the two-piece Skat diploma.

Not sure what the achievement is in Skat to earn the award, but whatever it is, I got the bronze award. You can see it in my award case--look for the white lion-like thing. However, there is no listing for it on the page, at least not on the English version of the page.

If you want to play Skat, you have to change your language to German. You do this under My Account-My settings-Language. Look under Card games (so you Texans and Georgians are still S.O.L.). It is a multiplayer game. If you want to chase the diploma, you can activate it (you have to be in German) as you would any other old diploma; and of course, not while you already have an old diploma active. You have to get ranked by playing five cash games as you would any other game.

If you would like to learn the game but can not read German, drop me a message or comment on this entry, and I will type it out for you. Yes, there are translators you can use, but translated versions are still kinda hard to read.

Guten nicht, and good luck!

    Hi Sholly, thanks for the tip that you can play other games by changing the language. I could play several games which are not available in Dutch and also got awarded. I like your blog, please continue! Best wishes from Holland.
