to answer your question there are no more moderators I am not a moderator unless it's in my own blog and then I cannot change nobody's typing

Thank you for confirming this. if we all compromised this is how it should be.  A while ago I felt foolish to think that I would follow you if you had not given your pledge by that first week of April because I took the trouble to do it by that date under your own recommendation.  I started to think about it after my greenguy post and the more I thought about the possi

bility the more I disliked it. thanks for making it clear.

Another question and I want an honest answer. Are you a global moderator of the forum? there is no indication that it is so because it says: "alrelax

     Hero Member "

if so then does it mean that there are other hero members who have the possibility to edit the posts of all the other members? under the previous moderation model global moderators could only delete posts but never mess with the content of the messages of others. in my opinion it is as it should be: simply hide from public view and give a chance to defend yourself.  many posts were restored after a second chance of rebuttal.  To edit post content is not correct in my opinion: all the post being published in full or nothing.

I have donated in the past prior to this and I sent my pledge. OK?

Stephen,

  I went back to your "book" and triple checked it for your "correction" to the system play that you have graciously PM'ed to me.   It wasn't in there at all and your "correction" changes the order of play in no small way, almost changing the complete element of the method!

  The obvious problem with the original 2nd edition system was the "Sporadic One" (with apologies to Ellis for that nomenclature).   Your "new" explanation does take some of that out of the equation.

  With that said, I believe I'll wait for Edition 3.0 to show up before doing any more testing or retesting of previous shoes.

  I WILL run the latest iteration of TUBS on any of the shoes that get posted by Alrelax as you seem to believe that my shoe history is suspect for some reason.  At least this way we'll have a valid, current live shoe to work with from time to time and as several of us have the system play in hand, we will be able to see if there are any problems between us.

  I'll save my further comments for a later date.

AD, I have 4 from last night and I am trying to close up soon and head to the casino tonight.  I will save them.  Will post them in the baccarat thread, no problem.  Thanks. I always mark the card up with "B" or "P" and I do it horizontal, if you want anything else, let me know.

A.

Going to the casino tonight.  Supposed to meet up with a few long term bac players in the area from the east coast.  Ought to be very interesting.  Luckily I have a bit of pull at the place we are going.

Parallel to casino gaming on-line.  FYI:

I don't care what you have to share.


Good luck Glen.

If my name was 'john' and I was a monkey from Russia you sure would be!

Doesn't give you option to ignore the long annoying posts though.

Why would you have to go back and read anything you don't truly enjoy or like or that benefits yourself??

When you ride down the street, do you stop at your x-wife/x-GF's/X-BF's house and stalk them too? 

When you ride down the street, do you stop and go into the restaurant that grossed you out the previous time or had terrible food and/or service?

When you ride down the street, do you find yourself pulling into that store that has higher prices than the other ones you so regularly enjoy shopping at??

Seriously, just don't look and click on them.  Simple.

For those of you that do not know, this board has 'ignore' options.  That way you can not see, get PM's or be bothered by those members that apparently detest you, disturb you or that you cannot stand and upset your wonderful Mary Poppins/Dick Van Dyke type of life.

Here is the way you would ignore myself on this board:

Go to 'Settings/Profile'
Then go to 'Modify Profile'
Then go to 'Ignore Boards/Options
Then go to 'Highlighted'
Then go to the 6th one down "Alrelax's Blog"
Check that one
Then go back to the 'Ignore Boards Options'
Then go to 'Buddies/Ignore List'
Then at the bottom you will see a block next to 'Members', list
Put 'Alrelax' in there.

Done.

Happiness!

That way if you are too weak and have to go and read my stuff everyday that gets you so upset and just turns your world inside out, once you complete the ignore stuff--you won't have the great temptation any longer.  Like they say--'out of sight--out of mind', right???

Thanks.

Okay Gizz, I love you too!

Just remember, I am not the one about the brain juice, chimps and clinical related infatuation with gambling decisions. 

Great, I will swing by Joe's and the Blueberry Almond Joy donuts will be on me!  By the way, please divulge your 'secret method' only 2 people on earth know!  Please, all the roulette players want to make millions and millions of dollars!  Maybe you can get together with an author and write a book??

EZ Back with no commissions if you are in the USA usually one property nearby has it available. 

You know, there is nothing wrong with selling something as a sponsor on a message board or website, through ads and editorials.  Happens all the time in our culture, on TV, on the Radio, Billboards alongside the road, etc.,  Heck, in casinos in the restroom with advertisements as well as elsewhere throughout the casino property. 

Those people are buying advertisement space to reach other potential customers.  Simple, accepted all over without complaint, why here?  Like about Stephen Tabone.  My problem with him, was he came on the board and with a sheer commercial approach--started his dialogs and they all were based around his book and book sales.  Sponsor the board, pay your advertising money and carry on.  Don't slander others and sell your product. 

If you as a member, do not approve of it or you do not enjoy or like his style or info--skip it.  What's the big deal???  Same with a poster that you do not enjoy or like, skip their material.  When you go to a restaurant do you demand the owner of the restaurant remove all the things you do not happen to like on his menu??  Same thing.  It costs Vic money to run the board, are you donating or paying for your space or the privilege of reading, learning, enjoying or sparring with others??  Well? 

Personally, I don't care who sells what through a sponsorship.  In every industry/field there will be great products, mediocre products and junk/worthless products.  That is the pecking order.  I buy many things for the business I partner in.  Most of the time I buy the great products, however--once in awhile I purchase something that is clearly inferior in design, technology and/or 'real life field results' on a job as compared to another brand/product.  Hell, in my own kitchen I run into it all the time with various brands of food.  Everyone coming out with a service, product or something else for sale, might believe and think and market as that particular item is the best thing since slice bread--but in reality--their will always be like I said, great--mediocre--junk/worthless.

There is room on the board for all kinds of sales and marketing if they support the board.  The same as Amazon and other websites.  You give them a commission to be on their site, etc.  It is business.
