Interesting comments by mrjjj and redietz. I've had a hot-cold relationship with M.S., and he recently was quoted as saying I was wrong and Dancer was right about the Revel $100,000 rebate promotion--even though it was the first time in years Dancer & I agreed on something.
In my time on that forum, I've found it to be first and foremost, a safe-haven for admitted homosexuals, transvestites, America haters, minorities, and especially atheists. You say one thing that might upset any of those protected groups, and you get suspended. I'm banned there but not for that. I came across as much too strong for the Wizard's pack of intellectual mathematicians, and when I offered to meet with him and them in LV to show them my machine testing results as well as play ten sessions of SPS with a bet that I'd win at least 7 of them along with at least an overall win amount of $25k, I ended up getting banned after verbally abusing MathExtremist for suddenly altering the parameters by requiring me to pay everyone's travel, food & hotel costs.
As for M.S., I find him an absolute genius when analyzing gaming numbers, but he is in a very minor league - and it greatly shows - when he gets outside of his comfort zone--such as discussing video poker or slot club benefits manipulation.
