The Alderney Gambling Control Commission is not a for-profit organzation. Ultimately it is the States of Alderney that benefit from any surplus.

Given what the AGCC seems to know, I don't understand why we haven't heard about the AGCC having filed a criminal complaint. Perhaps such a case is beyond the capabilities of Alderney's four-person police force.

Only 4 humans, but they have some pretty vicious looking animals that are part of their department:

Nobody here will tell you if the chance is reasonable or not. its just pure "from air, i have a lot of free time and i have my big time opinion" type speculations. When something will happen for real, big "non-lol-joke" news site will release those news. Hoping for a specific day or week at this point after so many disspointing extensions is just laughable

Re: FTP Discussion Thread (Everything but big new news goes here. Cliffs in OP)

I come from Liquidpoker and every single day I wonder if there will be FTP news. Now I'm so desperate for the site to be operational again that I'm here checking a thread with thousands of pages...

Can anyone answer me this simple question - What percentage do you believe the site has of returning within the next 3 weeks and paying the players back? Simple question? You bet. I just really want a good feel for how I should approach this month, because the money I may or may not get matters more now than any other time. I feel like the number is somewhere around 25% or less but I hope I'm wrong and some of you have better insider knowledge of the chances.

Re: FTP Discussion Thread (Everything but big new news goes here. Cliffs in OP)

The chances of them paying players back with 3 weeks is way way less than 25%. The chance of them announcing something similar to 'deal is signed' within 3 weeks is probably higher than 25%.
