Those of us that want to play and beat the games at high stakes need to know the games are fair. |

Re: Cheating at AP, updated cliff notes
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] The Potripper account belongs to AJ Green, former Director of Operations at AP and Scott Tom's best friend. AJ Green is currently VP of operations at nine.com. [/ QUOTE ] Breaking news update that should surprise absolutely no one: AJ Green is also POTSLAMMER, he of the 3 posts shilling for AP in his only thread. As we already know, The Watchdog, who comes in to defend him and co-shill for AP in that thread, is probably Scott Tom. This is not the end of this story and more will be forthcoming along these lines. [/ QUOTE ] So sick. Keep up the investigative work guys. Very nice job so far. |

100, there it is [/ QUOTE ] 100 diggs doesn't guarantee it makes it to the front page. It's based on how long the article has been out and what not. 100 diggs in 2 hours is very good though. Hopefully a few more and it makes it. |

I'm big on principle. Edit: Also, I'm pretty sure we don't need a running digg-dugg count. |

Re: Cheating at AP, updated cliff notes
Spread the digg around to p5s & FTR, other forums maybe?
The sheer momentum of this whole thing seems unstoppable, so there's no sense now in holding back. |

U guys should watch out, cuz i'm sure the people who are behind this aren't gonna like the way you exposed them.. I'm afraid heads are gonna roll for this.. Good detective work.. but i'm afraid it won't go unpaid.. [/ QUOTE ] I've definitely thought about this possibility with regards to my own safety. Here's the way I see it... a) People know my real name and what I look like b) Tons of people interact with me on a daily basis c) If I went missing or something, it would be relatively obvious d) If the AP people want some very serious US Gov't attention, the best way to do that would be threatening or hurting Adanthar, snagglepuss, myself, etc. I kinda doubt they want that. e) This is not meant to be a brag, but I have a well-off and well-connected family. They would not let it rest if something happened to me, especially considering how obvious it would be who did it and who was behind it. They have a lot to lose by making that mistake. So I'm banking on that, among other things, to protect myself and my friends. |
