JMcmanamy: there are not even close to 1,000 requests here.......out of how many million players??????? It doesn't cost WGT a penny to give out credits for day 12...
A rough count that I did was about 500 requests and roughly 130 received gifts. That's roughly 25% of those who asked where gifted. True, is cost WGT nothing out of pocket to send someone a gift, just a few key strokes.
But it does affect their bottom line is lost sales from players who would have purchased something but didn't, if that player bought credits. If the player earned credits through watching videos, surveys, etc...it would not cost WGT anything.
I agree with you JM, that the least WGT could do is to grant the wishes of those whose stocking was left empty.
