[edit] 3 times 7

Vanity entry, invented game with no mentions on Google of "3 times 7" gambling except the "official" site; article additionally proposes new game is popular even though there are no mentions 2005 19:47, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

  • This is a true game, with real rules and real players. Yes it isn't as popular as other "casino" games, but believe me that I'm familiar with this game for the last 20 years, and it is played and would continue to be played.

That said, it seems that it is pretty unfamiliar in the world (at least over WWW). The official site is new, so it would take the game some time to be indexed with Google.

  • Delete, pretty nn. --Tone 20:14, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete If it is notable, said notability is certainly unverifiable. -- Kicking222 20:55, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  • There is an ongoing discussion over the Hebrew translation of the article, about the validity of this game. I'm happy to see finally more people who are familiar with the game. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Karlito2000 (talk • contribs) May 23 2006.

  • Hi, I'm active in Hebrew wiki, and asked the same question there. The response of he:משתמש:GODFATHER, a well known user, and not the creator of the article, was that in his town on independence day there are a least 10 tables offering this game. So apperently the game is popular in certain communities, and therefore should not be deleted. DGtal 08:22, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per DGtal, also note google is not the only search engine on the web... have you tried yahoo, clusty, ask jeeves... the list goes on and on... ?Eagle talk 22:36, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
LOL, maybe you better look next time. There are no results in Yahoo. There are no results on Ask. There are no results in MSN. (Aside from the "official site"... which obviously also is an oxymoron.) You can't get less notable than having zero mentions on the Internet aside from this article and a site calling itself the "official site" of a non-published game. 2005 23:36, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
