I aggree with you. I havn't been into this online subscription business, particularly when its in us cash or anything except my own currency and even then I don't know. I wouldn't use something like that enough. But this doesn't put a good light on things. And the worse thing is that I think allinplay could be a surplis company in the sence that kitchensinc has better games in my opinion than them casino wise. I have the poker because I run it offline, but the poker on kitchinsinc is smaller and seems better. Also we do not here much from paul, not even on list discussion. We know of him but he is not familiar poster on the list. He posts seldom if at al. There is a good side to this though. I wouldn't want to say this but since this mail went public, if paul goes and all in play with him he will not be missed. I don't think he is a major player anymore. There is a load more things up. The gaming industry has companies, but also a load of opensource stuff. Its going faster. And well for the record we havn't had a bad event in a few months, this one is quite small, almost to small to actually write about. If we lost someone like pcs or gma or lworks, or draconis, then we would have a problem. At 07:07 p.m. 27/08/2006, you wrote: >It's a shame.
