Hello forum members,
With the end of '05 coming to a close, I thought it would be interesting to find out more about things that fell-off the "forum" radar (over the course of the year). I welcome you all to add to this list (w/comments of course), about things which occured here and we haven't heard about them since. This topic can cover, people/forum members, winnings, money issues, customer support, specific casinos, unresolved complaints, ect...
To kick-things-off, this is what this enquiring mind wants to know:
A)
At first I thought this case was some kind of prank, seeing that she had won all of that money playing "Queen Of The Pyramids" over at a PlayTech. But, from what I understand, it's all true. We came to learn that she had agreed to be paid in segments on a monthly basis (as opposed to one giant lump sum). The question looming, has she been fully paid yet?
B)
While I've never had the pleasure of having any direct reply/chat in any thread with Bruce, during his brief stay here, the man put up a helluva-lot-of posts (at the rate he was going, I figured he'd have the most posts here by early '09). We even got to see the man behind the mask. After revealing his photo, a joke followed wondering if he was in fact dead. Now, with his mysteriously not posting anything for quite some time now, did he in fact pass away?
Serious note: Hope he's okay, as I always enjoyed his colorful responses.
C)
This would later evolve into Simmo! versus Slotster (with the help of Gramma's postings, specifically the GIANT progressive win on Treasure Nile to the tune of $102,969.09, wherein Slotster laid down the challenge in post #1856), which would later evolve into what it is now Slotjunkies.info (and as of today, Simmo! versus w2album versus realwtfsup).
Getting back to this heading, there was quite a stretch where we were seeing Royal Flushes abound. We don't see many postings from Casinomeister or Spearmaster's Winner Screenshots these days. Is it safe to assume that the great luck has dried-up for the both of them? My guess, is that they're just too busy these days. Hey, I haven't hit a Royal Flush since the 1st quarter of '05 (where I managed to hit 4, although only 1 was for $4,000 at a PlayTech no less, and another was for the .05 cent minimum over at BoDog... woof!!).
Sidenote: It sure seems like there were more big wins in the 1st quarter of '05 (until the beginning of the summer), as opposed to now. Truth or not, don't know, just seems that way.
Sidenote II: Never, never, EVER play VP at an RTG for the .05 cent minimum. I won a whopping $6.25 for that. Heck, like I couldn't have been playing max hands EVEN for the .05 cent minimum? BIG error on my part. Grrrrrrrrrr...
D)
A short-list would include:
- dunarunnin (nope, you still B runnin')
- maerek (perhaps eaten by a SHARK )
- debzy (1-and-out)
- dancer (1-and-out)
They've all mysteriously vanished.
Feel free to add more. I was thinking about adding the list with all the posters who've been fortunate enough to have been banned this year. Now THAT would be a colorful list.
