The Ramadan Trix Competition

We launched our second competition today. Our Ramadan Trix Competition will be bigger and a little different from our last competition. Players will compete to be one of the top 64 players, after which they will play AGAINST each other in an online elimination tournament. The last 4 players will each win a laptop and the winner of the final table will win a 42" flat screen LCD television. Good luck to all!

We are proud to announce the winners of the first iPod Touch Competition. Jawaker player "jumjum" won the first prize by achieving the highest score, and Jawaker player "kirk" won the draw for the second iPod Touch. The players were awarded the prizes by members of the Jawaker team in a ceremony marking the occasion. Congratulations to both players!

Jawaker Launches Facebook Connect Application

Ever since we launched our initial Facebook Application, we thought we needed to create something more viral for Jawaker. When we learnt of Facebook Connect, we thought that it would be the perfect fit for Jawaker and would give our users more functionality and benefit. Quite simply, a registered user would "connect" his Facebook and Jawaker accounts and give us permission to publish information on their news feed. The user is then asked to invite his Facebook friends that are not currently on Jawaker to join and play cards with him. The user will earn 10 tokens for every friend that signs up, and the friend will get 10 bonus tokens for signing up this way.

The nice thing about connecting your Facebook and Jawaker accounts will be that you will be able to publish your Jawaker achievements directly on Facebook, you will be able to see a more relevant Jawaker rank between your Facebook friends and you will eventually be able to locate your Facebook friends on Jawaker when they are online!

Sbeetiya is a regional variant of the game Hearts, and Leekha is a popular Lebanese card game that is similar to Sbeetiya. Enjoy!
