I just commended this guy a couple of days ago when someone hit the Fungi+CoF roll and he paid up. Then he started his new rules with the ability to roll for the Fungi (125p), the CoF (175p), or both (300p) and I had a chat with him asking him how he was doing with the Casino operation since he was laying odds that were so against him (valuing the Fungi at 62500 and CoF at 87500) and mentioned that I would have expected something much closer to 200p for a Fungi roll, 300p for CoF, and 450 for a combined roll to entice more action there which would value the Fungi at 100k, CoF at 150k, and the combined would still value at 225k. He replied saying it was thrilling to run but it certainly was stressful and said he'd probably be taking a bit of a break from doing it and coming back with something like I suggested. I guess he should have just taken that break...
Honestly, I don't see the issue with Casinos as long as the players running them aren't scamming. I actually loved that Arrowd was doing something more than the standard double/triple your plat and was giving something much more exciting that would be more akin to hitting big on a lottery ticket as opposed to winning a few extra bucks on a scratch ticket. That being said, unless you've got some seriously deep pockets and can afford the potential hit of your first customer coming up and winning right away, you shouldn't even consider running such an operation. Likewise, unless you're willing to take a financial hit and want to do it just because you think it's fun, you should probably know how to calculate basic odds and price in a bit of a house edge... | ||

As an avid TunnelQuester who frequents the casinos and truly enjoys what they provide... if Arrowed is who I think he might be, this whole thing upsets me greatly.
If not, it upsets me a lot, but not as much as it could. Some of these casinos are actually the same person using different accounts, which in itself is pretty suspect. Known reputable T2 casino operators (Reince, Dungeonmaster, Tookie and Alcoholic come to mind) are in a good position (literally) to keep a watchful eye on the other casinos and speak up if they think there is a connection between Arrowed's casino and the others. Speech patterns, games offered, macros, movement habits, etc... If you suspect some shady behavior and connection between Arrowed's casino and another casino, speak up! | ||

Man.
I totally know who Arrowed is. Which sucks, because he's an awesome and totally fun guy. (no pun intended, lol) Arrowed, I don't like to strong-arm people, especially people who have been very nice to me, but please pay the man his prize. I wasn't there to see it happen, but lots of people are substantiating the claim that this person actually won the fungi and you /q'd Unless there is more to the story than I know, you've made a lot doing your thing here, and you can afford this hit. Also, I like you and don't want to lose you. You still have a chance to come online and be like "Oh my! It WAS a storm and power has been out for days! I'm so sorry! Here is the stuff you won." | ||

I actually have base-full evidence and aside from playful trolling, I don't want the other reputable casino operators to have their names unfairly tarnished. | |||
