Re: We win (AP Scandal v. 27)

New MSNBC story: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21381022/ The interesting part, supposedly from an Absolute spokesperson: [ QUOTE ] The cheater made no attempt to make off with his illegitimate winnings — estimated at between $400,000 and $700,000 by one victim — but was an employee of AbsolutePoker.com who hacked the system to show that it could be done, said a spokesman for the company, who spoke with msnbc.com on condition of anonymity. “This is literally a geek trying to prove to senior management that they were wrong and he took it too far,” he said. [/ QUOTE ] Anticipating dramabomb ... [/ QUOTE ] FYP |

Re: We win (AP Scandal v. 27)
On the one hand, this is very hard to swallow. Elaborate frames and set-ups are common in movies, not so common in real life. On the other hand, it's hard for me to believe that Absolute would tell bald-faced lies at this point. They have so many internal sources leaking at this point that they can't really expect to get away with it.
My guess: I think Nat or Serge will be able to confirm/disconfirm shortly. Best to withhold judgement until then. |

This was a surprisingly well written story, I really thought the mass media would butcher this. [/ QUOTE ] Thank Michael Brunker, the reporter. He's been working with me on this story for days and has been very understanding of the situation. |

Are we to believe it went down something like this: Management: Our softwear is rock solid and cannot be hacked Geek Programmer: oh yes it can Management: shut up, your a geek. Our software is da shiznit. Programmer: I'll show you . . . . |

[/ QUOTE ] Well, they said pretty much what we all anticipated they would...question is, can it be disproven in part or whole? |
