@ Jigga,
I think you have seen a thread somewhere about them and connections to Elka Systems or what not… I’m not at all sure on what that really is, or how well informed the whole debate on that part is.
All I know is that from Winter 2001 to Winter 2002, all partners and players were indeed payed. Was kind of surprised when I first saw the whole thread on them being rogues.
Anyway, That’s the infor I have to give. 
Oh… And the Gambling Federation Party last night (Thursday night) at Newtown was a blast.
