When looking at the player information screen there is a field called ‘net delay’. What does this exactly mean?

Net Delay shows the latency for a packet of data to travel across the network from a player's location to the game server. It is typically measured in fractions of a second. Over time, net delay may differ slightly, depending e.g. on the changing throughput of multiple intermediate networks' endpoints.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
