What this site is
ETx42 is a free, public calendar of 42 dominoes games around East Texas, run by one person as a community service. Using etx42.com means accepting what is on this page and on our privacy page.
The important part
We do not run these games. Every listing is sent in by somebody else — a hall, a club, a person who runs a Thursday night. We read each one before it goes up, but reading is not the same as verifying. Times move, halls close, nights get cancelled, and we often find out after you would.
So: ring ahead before you drive out, especially for a long trip or a first visit. Every listing carries a contact for exactly that. What happens at a game — the fees, the rules, the people, your safety, your car — is between you and whoever runs it.
Saying you are coming
The RSVP button is a headcount and nothing more. It tells the person running the night roughly how many to expect so they can put out the right number of tables.
- It is not a booking, not a reservation, and not a seat held for you.
- You will still sign in at the door on the night, however the game normally does it.
- It is not a promise. Change your mind and take yourself off, or do not — nothing happens either way.
- A game can fill up, be cancelled, or turn out differently regardless of what this site said.
Accounts
- You need one to list a game or to say you are coming to one. Reading the calendar needs nothing.
- One account per person. Give a real email address — it is how you confirm the account and how you get back in.
- Your username is public. Do not pick one that impersonates somebody else or that you would not want on a family calendar.
- What happens under your account is your responsibility. Keep the password to yourself, and tell us if you think somebody else has it.
- You can ask us to delete your account at any time.
Listing a game
When you send in a listing you are telling us that:
- The game is real, it is open to people turning up, and the details are right as far as you know.
- You either run it or you have the say-so of whoever does.
- The contact details you put in the Who to ask box can be published, because they will be.
- Anything you upload is yours to upload.
You keep ownership of what you send in. By sending it you give us permission to show it on this site, in the site's search listings and share cards, for as long as the site runs.
Do not use the form for:
- Advertising that is not a 42 game somebody can turn up to.
- Anything illegal, or gambling that is.
- Somebody else's private details.
- Abuse, harassment, or anything aimed at a person rather than a game.
- Automated posting of any kind.
Moderation
Nothing goes on the calendar until it has been read. We can turn a listing down, take one off, mark a night cancelled, edit a detail that is obviously wrong, or block an account — and we can do it without warning and without giving a reason, though normally we will say. This is a small site with a small queue, not a court.
If a listing about your venue is wrong or should not be there, email contact@etx42.com and it will be dealt with.
Amazon links
ETx42 is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. It costs you nothing extra, and it does not buy anybody a place on the calendar.
The site itself
This is a free site run in somebody's spare time. It is provided as it is, with no promise that it will be available, correct, or still here next year. We are not liable for anything that follows from using it or from relying on something it said — a wasted drive, a game that was not on, a night that was not what the listing described. If a court decides we owe you something anyway, it is capped at what you paid us, which is nothing.
Nothing here is meant to take away a right you have under Texas or federal law that cannot be signed away.
Ending it
You can stop using the site and ask for your account to be deleted at any time. We can close an account that is breaking these rules. The disclaimers above carry on applying to anything that already happened.
Changes
These terms can change. When they do in a way that matters, the date at the top changes with them. Carrying on using the site after that is taken as accepting the new version.
Law
Texas law applies, and the courts of Texas are where anything about these terms would be settled.
