The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Participating In A Blackjack Tournament!

Hey guys!

I didn't want to reveal this until later, but I can't wait any longer to tell all my friends here.

I'm going to Windover in exactly one week from today, where I'll be participating in a Blackjack Tournament.

The winner will recieve $5,000!  Considering how things have been for me at work lately, (3 weeks of part time hours in a row is terrible!) it would be great to win, but I plan to have fun all the same, reguardless of what happens. :)

There won't be any internet there, but I'll make sure to have enough fun for all of us.

Anyways, that's what's up.  Wish me luck!

See ya later! :)

Petrie.

Well, I'm back!

So, I didn't win.  I was able to hold my own for all 3 of the qualifying rounds, but nothing else.  There was a Wild Card drawing, but that wasn't meant to be either.  At least I had fun there. :)

On top of this, I didn't do too hot in-between the time I spent gambling the money I brought with me.  Lost it all, really. :( (And note that I'm usually good at the games I play there.)

Still, I enjoyed my time there.  So it wasn't all bad. :)

I had fun and that's all that really matters. :^.^:
