Fabulous Job!

I am so proud of the work you do for the industry. Thank you for everything you all do and finally someone went after the right companies [micro & eCOGRA] thats the only way anything is every going to get taken care of in this business.

Kudo's and i will on pins and needles awaiting your next report!

I am new to your site and perhaps there's something I'm missing. I thought it was a widely known fact that eCOGRA was established by Microgaming but you suggest it' a rumour. That's what I find interesting!

No Alan, you missed a comma.

He said: "It has long been speculated that Ecogra, is in fact, just a puppet organisation, originally founded and funded by the Microgaming corporation."

But the Ecogra staffers are nice I hear, including the 2 PR firms in tow. Which is nice.

Personally, I'm tired of hearing how nice these folks are and how honest they are and how so and so would vouch for them. Fact is, they could be the nicest people in the entire world, but if they are not equipped and/or incompetent to do the job they have been assigned to do - then the end result will be less than satisfactory.

It makes me sick to see all the notorious hangers-on walking the fence trying not to step on the toes of ecgora during this entire process. IMO even if GP provided them will a fake database - they damn well should have been able to have recognized the invalidity of it.

At least in this case, JT hasn't been afraid to stir the pot and for that I have to take my hat off to him, even if I don't agree with all of the tactics.
