Unlike you, Frieghtman, I am free to participate where I want, I just choose not to. And even if that were to change, I can still read what I like, so don't tell me what I can and can't read. I read about 8 sites regularly pertaining to advantage play and/or Las Vegas, monitoring for discussions and/or mentions of promotions that I can benefit from. Most I choose not to participate on , a couple, like 2 plus 2, I participate very rarely, and now down to two, I participate regularly. But again, don't tell me what I can and can't read.
But none of that is why I responded. I did start the thread in question. But it was not a thread to discuss this site. The thread is entitled “Note to bigplayer”, because I couldn't located his email and had no other way to privately communicate with him. I wanted to suggest that he clarify his recent post referencing unit because as written, I was concerned that many of the members of this site that he was attempting to help would not understand the reference, since most are not familiar with what I call the “bigplayer/Munchkin” definition of unit. And not understanding that definition, the statemnet was confusing. My concern as it often is, was for the players he was attempting to help.
It was another member, one of the other two that recently exited that you referenced that first turned the disucussion to this site. So therefore, while you can claim that you were 'technically' correct that I started the thread, if was not at all the situation that you accused, therefore I hope you will honor your promise of a donation to the homeless. If it makes no difference to you, I would ask that you make that donation to: the Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth, 4981 Shirley Street, Las Vegas, NV 89119. (located directly across the street from Liberace's former mansion)
Since I was compelled to reply, let me just say that I have no proplem with Norm personally. Just last night, I recommended both 'Modern Blackjack' and Norm's software on the Wizard of Vegas site. Norm's software is the best and was and continues to be a huge game changer in the world of blackjack card counting. I honestly can't think of another development or product that has been so beneficial to players. It really was a game changer. I hope someday he receives the recognition that he deserves and I believe he would like, in the form of admission to the BJHoF.
But I do have a problem with the direction the site has taken and no longer can recommend this site to any aspiring counters. This site and the claims made and the discussions of advanced techniques (which belong in the advanced technique section) is just misleading and damaging to new counters starting out. So I exercise my option to not participate.
