Shady is just the tip of it! At least before you were guaranteed good stuff through the spacebridges, but not anymore. And you are right, they are more worried about the new players spending a buck then long term players returning.

It is the same theory with toy cranes, like you see in wal-mart and everywhere else. I was in that business, but only had two cranes, the rest were pool tables, arcade machines, and juke boxes. I preferred the others as opposed to the cranes, since I felt better giving someone their moneys worth, and I would set my cranes to win probably a little too much, lol. I don't prefer to rip people off, I sleep better at night that way!

But anyways, it is the same mentality. You want to place the crane in a high volume traffic area where you want people to put in a dollar, get ripped off, and walk away. Who cares since there will be hundreds more that will do it and lose, so free dollar each time with little to no payout! It has come up many times being considered gambling, but got beat down (with money) each time it comes up. So true, money moves mountains..... sigh.

Well, just finished an assignment, after a long day of work. Been going since 6 am, 7:45 now. Long days these days, all towards a means....

Time for dinner with family and play with my lil girl before bed. Might make it on live tonight Krynn, if so I'll see ya there. If not, please pardon me.

Oh yeah, saw that The Last of Us got leaked today......
