Tony 'TV Superstar' Kendall says it's OK if other people want to remain anonymous.
It's not for him though - he's addicted to the fame and glamour of everyone knowing who he is.
You didn't see him at DTD this weekend. Walking round signing autographs, having his photo taken with his fans, etc.

Well I am not as brave as Fraser & so I am not going to be daft enough to tangle swords with the Andrew the wordmaster himself, but my point about anonymity alluded to the fact that everyone always asks "why", "what", "who is it?", da de da, when in fact, it has nothing to do with them & they are just being nosey.
I always feel like replying "myofb", but I'm a wimp. I think it, though.
I think it is unlikely that Anons will be able to hold their stance much longer, though.

I'm not in favour of ANON in any of our main weekend comps, well im not actually in favour of ANON anywhere, its on the list to review
I don't agree with this, it shouldn't be reviewed.
Some people have decent enough reason to not put their name on the results page in poker tournaments and if they want to keep their win or the fact they gamble to themselves, then it's a free country.
I don't "Anon" and I can understand why people would do it (owe people money or don't want people to find out) but it's their choice.
There are always other genuine reasons why people do it and that is to stop people knowing they have won quite a large amount. I've been on the end of many people asking for money when they've seen a win on Napoleons poker results or straight after a win, so you can understand why people want to keep it to themselves. I only ever borrowed money to someone and it took me 4 months to get it back, I would NEVER do it again, unless it's to close friends on the scene.
Rather annoying to hear stories of person X owes you money, blah blah blah.

Also if you work for certain casino companies that rhyme with dala, and begin with a g.You may have to play as anon due to a policy of not being able to play at any venue within a 30 mile radius.
Because what you do outside of work is their business.....

Yes, what you do outside of work is your business - unless you agree a Contract of Employment that says otherwise. You do not HAVE to play as "anon", unless you choose to break the T & C's of your Employment Contract.
I'm pretty sure that if the employer only paid 80% of your wages, you'd be prety cross.
