Who is the guy who made this site? He does not remember anybody getting past 10’s. That’s a joke. I play jacks every day and getting past 10’s isn’t even a factor. Does anybody know what no-bumps is? That’s when can touch no other jacks than the ones you are going to pick up. If there are any avid jack players out there that can play the game decent, email me at dhoss13 [at] cs [dot] com

Hi, I have been collecting a lot of great jacks on ebay but would really like to find out about the history of the game and the different kinds of jacks. I got so many different kinds now I would love to know more about them. If anyone knows some information I’d love to hear from you. Thanks, Judy JMS112947 [at] aol [dot] com

Does anyone know when this game started? I am looking for a game played around 1800 to 1850 to show children in a historical house tour. Lawrence

i just remembered jacks when my granddaughter came over with some and asked me to show her how to play. I also am having trouble remembering all the different rules and games. We used to start with regular oneies, twosies, etc, then did baskets, upsies, downsies, double-ups, double downs, but that is all I can remember. This was our regular formula as each game gradually become more difficult. I would love to hear from anyone who can remind me of other games. thanks
