First off Sierra does not own the Hoyle franchise any longer, they sold it to Encore. On July 2, 2007 mgchic641 posted the following: "Please be advised the URL for the gaming site is changing from http://hoylegames.sierra.com/ to http://hoylegames.igl.net/. This change is necessary as a result of us not being able to receive assistance from Vivendi in getting the DNS records for the domain updated. We have been trying to contact them to no avail. The old URL (http://hoylegames.sierra.com/) is still working obviously; however, it's possible that it could go offline at any given moment. The new URL (http://hoylegames.igl.net/) is currently live and working properly, so please help spread the word! If you have any questions or concerns, please use the Feedback link and we'll be happy to assist you. In answer to you question the $20 annual fee is not exclusively for members of Case's Ladder, it is for access to the Hoyle Online gaming site and it applies to anyone who wants to play in any of the games on the site.
