Hi all, As some of you remember I programmed game called Petanque Manager - http://www.petanquemanager.net/index_en.php.
Now I have programmed a new version of that game. There going to be much more faetures like... - different fields - different boules - money - player transfer list - training - trainee - new characteristics for players - hidden variables for player - "scriptable" strategy for your team and many others.
Now I'm looking for beta-testers for this game. If you can spend little time to play that game, and report avery bug and misunderstandings to me. You are what I'm looking for. If you just want to peek, what the new game look like, then you need to wait release.
Petanque Manager is free and I am doing this only because I love this game.
If you are interesting in, please email me in kimmo.keranen @ pp9.inet.fi

I live between Cortland and Syracuse, NY and I'd like to find a place in Upstate NY to play petanque. There is Empire Haven Nudist Camp nearby but that's no good. I've no problem shedding the clothes to play; it's the twenty dollar day fee to get into the place. I'd drive a bit to play once in a while. Anybody out there or shall I have to spend the twenty?

Playing the game
Hi,
Just taking advantage of the board to ask if there is anyone out there who just likes to talk about petanque. I have been playing the game for some years now and have seemed to stop progressing. I'm sure it must be the way it happens as you get older but it gets quite frustating. I must say the sport has transformed my life in that it gave me a physical challenge when I came upon it some six or seven years ago.
By the way I'm from Hampshire UK England, and I belong to quite a strong and active club about 25 miles away. We play both in winter as well as summer, although it's more relaxed in winter because you don't have the major competions that you normally play in summer, although we have a few club and regional matches with a 'winter' added to the front of their names.
Look forward to hearing from anyone who loves playing the game.
Vernon Walker.

On the 2nd and 4th Sunday of every month, between 2 PM and 5 PM, members of Alliance Francaise d'Austin and other interested folks get together at the French Legation in Austin, TX to play petanque. The French Legation is located just East of downtown Austin at 802 San Marcos Street - phone: 472-8180.
Novices and experienced players are welcome and equipment is provided for adults and children. The shade trees and gravel walkways all around the French Legation provide us with excellent "courts" in which to spend lazy afternoons sharing both the sport of petanque and conversations in all levels of French & English. Since lots of folks bring a pot-luck dish, we also get to enjoy some excellent French cuisine!

Hi all, As some of you remember I programmed game called Petanque Manager - http://www.petanquemanager.net/index_en.php.
Now I have programmed a new version of that game. There going to be much more faetures like... - different fields - different boules - money - player transfer list - training - trainee - new characteristics for players - hidden variables for player - "scriptable" strategy for your team and many others.
Now I'm looking for beta-testers for this game. If you can spend little time to play that game, and report avery bug and misunderstandings to me. You are what I'm looking for. If you just want to peek, what the new game look like, then you need to wait release.
Petanque Manager is free and I am doing this only because I love this game.
If you are interesting in, please email me in kimmo.keranen @ pp9.inet.fi

Playing the game
Hi,
Just taking advantage of the board to ask if there is anyone out there who just likes to talk about petanque. I have been playing the game for some years now and have seemed to stop progressing. I'm sure it must be the way it happens as you get older but it gets quite frustating. I must say the sport has transformed my life in that it gave me a physical challenge when I came upon it some six or seven years ago.
By the way I'm from Hampshire UK England, and I belong to quite a strong and active club about 25 miles away. We play both in winter as well as summer, although it's more relaxed in winter because you don't have the major competions that you normally play in summer, although we have a few club and regional matches with a 'winter' added to the front of their names.
Look forward to hearing from anyone who loves playing the game.
Vernon Walker.

On the 2nd and 4th Sunday of every month, between 2 PM and 5 PM, members of Alliance Francaise d'Austin and other interested folks get together at the French Legation in Austin, TX to play petanque. The French Legation is located just East of downtown Austin at 802 San Marcos Street - phone: 472-8180.
Novices and experienced players are welcome and equipment is provided for adults and children. The shade trees and gravel walkways all around the French Legation provide us with excellent "courts" in which to spend lazy afternoons sharing both the sport of petanque and conversations in all levels of French & English. Since lots of folks bring a pot-luck dish, we also get to enjoy some excellent French cuisine!
