Epic PS Support Response Email - Poker Beats Brags and Variance

Subject: URGENT - help needed

Hi,

As you may know, the end of the world is on December 21st and I was just wondering how can PokerStars help me survive it. Added bonus if I'm still able to play on PokerStars after the end of the world has come and gone.

Regards

-Cragg

Their response:

Hello Cragg,

Thank you for contacting PokerStars.

Five Tips for surviving the apocalypse:

1) Stay hydrated. (Most likely there will be a lot of dust and debris flying around)
2) Stay elevated. (Low lying areas will flood first so get up to the mountains)
3) Look scary. (If you look all clean and nice-guy, the gangs will see you as an easy target)
4) Hoard lots of medical supplies (Money won't matter anymore, but people will trade their first-born for a band aid once the panic sets in)
5) Find either Mel Gibson or Denzel Washington. (I saw some post-apocalyptic movies and those guys know their ****)

As far as PokerStars staying operational, we had some problems with our end-of-the-world app so sadly it will not be ready to launch before tomorrow, basically making it obsolete. Sorry about that and good luck!

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to write back, and hopefully we will speak again after tomorrow.

Regards,

Tyler
PokerStars Support Team

We are survivors!

Beat: took them 1.5 hours to respond

If it took PS support 1.5 hours to respond imagine how long it would take ftp support to respond...

They responded to me in six minutes flat the other day about relaunch of iPhone app, but some people complain it takes days. All good on my end

How many black dudes do you really need to repopulate the earth after the apocalypse? Denzel should be enough imo.
