As Gomer Pyle often said, "Surprise, surprise, surprise!"

You had both MDawg and certain forum administrators by the proverbial scrotums, so they had no real choice.

You are to be commended, kewlJ. Without you revealing that you knew who MDawg is, and would have his Cosmos records, none of this would have happened. If Shackleford is truly about reporting reality, then Shackleford owes you a massive thank you for doing his job for him behind the scenes. If, however, Shackleford wasn't really about having MDawg report reality, then I guess you can expect no thanks.

Excellent job. It is a classic case for my debunking files. This has been a three-year escalating (as you predicted) fantasy conspiracy, and despite every analysis to the contrary, forum administrators allowed it to go on and on and on.

Do I really think this was (A) a case of a progressive system catching up with someone or (B) fantasy bullshit bills coming due and a scramble to cover themselves as best as possible, I give (B) about a 95% probability.

The great thing is, WoV is stuck with all of those claims in perpetuity on their site. LOL. Fifty of 52 winning baccarat days, huge blackjack streaks spreading 1 to 100, winning hundreds of thousands while being comped for six months. All on the site, staring everyone in the face, for all time. Thank God it isn't my site.

Speaking of which, kewlJ, would you have any interest in writing up a summary of the MDawg adventure and how it ended? I can only pay you a couple hundred bucks to do it, but I could certainly use a summary from someone who actually plays blackjack currently. No hurry -- let me know down the road.

You did a fantastic job staying on this psycho. Without you, it doesn't really get debunked properly.
