Suggestion
Perhaps we can drop the category Mancala-like games completely. Obviously you, Clark Rodeffer (Volcano), Wald Amberstone (African Chess) and me (Reverse Mancala) have all different opinions about what is still a mancala game (all of them game experts). For that reason, I think it would be against the Wiki spirit to let these games be judged by just one person (nothing against you personally). Perhaps we should just add a note somewhere (perhaps a template?) that this game's status as a "mancala game" is disputed and let the readers judge by themselves if they want to call it a "mancala game" or just a "mancala-like game" (btw, a differentiation which doesn't make much sense to native speakers anyway) or whatsoever they want.

Help needed
Dear Admin! - I don't know how to make the template: two-dimensional games. Could you help me? --Mancala lover 16:40, 26 August 2006 (CEST)

Thanks a lot for your work and for giving me advice of the new URL (I shall have to update quite a few it.wiki pages!). I got my account, maybe I will contribute a bit. Thanks a lot and keep up the good job! Moongateclimber 14:21, 1 September 2006 (CEST)

Could you replace "online free recource" with "free online resource". Online resource is a fixed expression and free is an adjective.

zenit view??? - probably you mean "view from above" or maybe "bird's eye view" (the latter expression may sound odd for a photo taken just a meter or so from above). - --Mancala lover 22:41, 13 September 2006 (CEST)
Pussa kanawa
Pussa kanawa is actually a subcategory of multiple lap games. So could you somehow change the wiki that the pussa kanawa games also turn up in the multiple lap category. - --Mancala lover 19:17, 18 September 2006 (CEST)

Hello Viktor,

>> (...) you refer to many references I don't have access to (...)
as a sign that we want to continue our work together and to help each other, we could exchange articles you don't get in Spain and I don't have in my country. I exchanged articles with Jama Musse Jama which was good for both of us.
So just tell me (you have my e-mail) which articles you would like to receive. For my part, I would greatly appreciate a copy of Balambal Ramaswami's articles on Pallankuzhi and Seethaipandi published in Step by Step.

Hello Viktor,
I work for a production company in Austin, Texas, USA. We're currently working with a publishing company named Options Publishing, Inc., (also located in Austin) on an educational supplemental book series titled "Number Pals". The current title in production is "Count and Capture" . We're in need of images of anything associated with the game Mancala. Can you tell me if the images on your website are available for use? If the images are available, we'd need high resolution images (300dpi) and a statement giving us permission to use the images in the book titled "Count and Capture © 2008. In return for use of the images you and your website will be credited as the source of the photographs.
Kind Regards,
Joyce

Hi! I saw a video of you on youtube. You're my hero! I also saw on BGG that you designed two games! http://www.boardgamegeek.com/designer/8037 Where can I order them? --Sonja 22:03, 10 April 2007 (CEST)
