Last night, I saw a JP where the bubble burst on the sling post. IT DID take the artwork along with it. Looks like it will only get worse from where the bubble popped. UNREAL. After that, I took down my DILE ad. Why should I run the risk and roll the dice on a NIB game?

Watch and wait stance until this is resolved.

Jack IS doing the right thing. Plain and simple. The man is making calls to customers HIMSELF. Hell, I’m sure he’s even delivering play fields personally to those who are local also! That’s just the kind of guy he is. An act of goodwill to that extent is unmatched, and it deserves recognition. No lip service, just action.

I’m glad he stepped up. His company will continue to have a bright future. I wish him all the best knowing that HE WILL weather this storm.

Quoted from Who-Dey:

OMG dude really? All it takes is a personal call from Jack and you are all giddy and happy now? Do you think he’s calling people because he’s a great guy? Hell no, he’s calling people because his business is going down the shitter and he’s trying to save it! Its amazing how some people can be made happy about getting screwed on a 10K game just from a phone call from Jack! If he called me i would be giving him a f*cking ear full instead of kissing his ass!

He needs to figure it out. And he will. If not, the business will crumble. A bit of self preservation to help others in need isn’t all that awful. Admittedly , I help others at my job solely because it’ll effect how my family is fed. So long as he is addressing the concern, no matter how small, he has to start somewhere. I have NOTHING TO GAIN by “kissing Jacks ass”. That is flat out silly.

Don’t get me wrong. There’s no way I’m going near ANYONES GAMES, his included, until this shit is resolved, fully. My games are always pitch perfect. My OCD will not allow me to own anything less than a flawless machine.

Quoted from Who-Dey:

I never said that you were kissing his ass. I was just talking about how people seem to be star struck because Jack is calling them. Some people are even willing to share some of the cost with him so he doesn't lose so much money. This is a company backed by billionaire investors.if im not mistaken, why the hell would anyone be willing to take a hit financially for them?

Maybe star struck isn't the right term? More like grateful that a company figure head is so actively involved. CGC was the same way when I had my issues with AFMRLE. Although, my conversations with Doug were harsh (i was beyond livid)...My game sat UNPLAYABLE for 5 months while they figured out their PIC chip issue. That left a sour taste in my mouth from buying any future products from them. At the end of the day, my machine was fixed, and I put 1600 trouble free plays on it before letting it go. I always lived in fear when I turned that game on. This scenario isn't nearly as bad. Having a $8k paperweight in your living room was heart breaking
