[QUOTE="Anon Adderlan, post: 9377548, member: 53053"] Turn based RPGs. I guess that's one way of describing them. Anyway, Pro Life Tip: If a company makes a promise they will break it. If it's not in a contract they will break it. And even if it's in a contract they will break it if they feel they'll profit more in the long run. The entire premise of this delusional business plan is the same as for all other information technology: To control access and exclusivity to what is inherently an unlimited resource. And honestly if folks are dumb enough to give Evil Genius money for this then they're true to their name and I respect the hustle. Meanwhile the US still treats virtual 'property' as services while many other countries do otherwise. One thing which drives me utterly nuts however is how the folks who oppose this insanity end up jumping the shark and becoming full on luddites. Because there [I]are[/I] uses for a secure high trust uneditable ledger. PS: The reason they won is because the competition was complete garbage, which explains why the #YouTube video has only 6 upvotes, 408 views, and no comments after 2 weeks. Oh, and if the host had shushed me off stage in the process of answering a question like that I would have instantly shushed then back. PPS: I have recently discovered colons and will now be using them everywhere. [/QUOTE]
