I don't think she was angry, I think it's just a writing style she adopts. Very entertaining it was too IMO.
I'm desperately trying to find a way to slip the phraze "Minge to the wind" into one of my posts.

Lets be honest the DTD overlay thing is turning into a bit of a farce now, they push themselves beyond all measure at so many events then complain that their neck is on the line always.....well clearly but its not your first rodeo. I thought it was really funny, if she got banned for penning that it would be a travesty.

The article didn't come across as complaining about the overlay at all to me, she was complaining about the player base being blamed for the overlay.
If I'm Rob then I'm much less bothered about people contributing to the discussion about how to make my events more popular (albeit in a pretty out there tone) than I am about the people keeping schtum to preserve their piece of the overlay

It's almost as if they are deliberately doing it as a marketing tool  |

Cant agree with you Alex , any poker organisation that is willing to put their" neck on the lines " by promoting guaranteed tournaments is greatly contributing towards the industry . If tournament numbers are falling short and a rallying cry is needed then surely that is just good business practice . |

Good business practice?!......id argue its the opposite, of course its being used a marketing tool and its like the boy who cried wolf now (probably just pissed off the overlays are not on my doorstep). |

It's not good to have targets that are too easily met either. Is making the guarantee actually a target in this context? |

Not as much as they could! But not sure how many cups of brown piss you'd need to sell to break even tbh.. |
