Unfortunately I'll be hard-pressed to get more VPPs, have too much IRL stuff going on in the next few months, namely a ton of friends getting married in the U.S.
Last year's "scam" was the introduction of Spins, right? I wouldn't exactly call that a scam, although it did decrease traffic across the board and make it harder for SNG regs to get volume. Could they introduce a new game type this year? Of course. But I think it's more likely that they delay the 'Changes to SNE' announcement until the absolute last minute, collecting all that delicious rake from aspiring Elites and then discouraging those players from actually reaching the 1,000,000 VPP mark.

That's the idea. After I get SNE in mid December/early January I'm going to head back to SE Asia for a few months. Will visit Hong Kong, possibly Bali, and settle in Thailand (Chiang Mai). Also have about $8500 worth of Euro Step Tickets to use, so if there are some live EPT events within a 6 hour flight, I'll do that too.
