Basically what it looks like they're (wgt) doing is what they always do. Sit back, let people vent then ignore it... game on as usual after the uproar.
I think this is a bit different, don't you? This really isn't WGT, well it is as I said they setup the tournament. They obviously knew there was this 'flaw' in it, because if they're trying to say they didn't, well that's almost worse with respect to addressing their gross incompetence. Their response to the situation is certainly all on them, and they really should think on it. This involves thousands of dollars, which people spent in an event which they were led to believe was put on in good faith and fairness. Clearly not the case.
Unless someone finds a PM or email whereby WGT let ANCC in on this 'flaw', that "This is how you can dump points on etc etc etc...." This is all on ANCC and the owner. They actively sought out and once they found it, started exploiting the hole in the setup, knowing full well what the outcome was going to be.
Most of us obviously have friends at other CC's, how the f**k the owner and anyone else who knew what was going on at ANCC had the gall to chat or talk with these people/friends is beyond me. You know they're spending credits chasing your CC trying to catch up and you know, and probably laughing about it the whole time, that there isn't a chance in hell they're going to be able to. All the while those players in other CC's are spending a lot of money on CC passes and balls.
There are all sorts of ways to describe this... Most will get one banned from posting and probably from playing.
Oh, and well said Jim, Romax...
