This.
You guys are not random members of the community and this was not some HU4rollz situation where it's just a bunch of angry NVGers on an issue that isn't really their business. This was a public challenge and was endorsed by FTP which is now owned by the biggest poker site in the world. And you guys are supposed to be some of the most long time respected members of the community.
You were all well aware of the fact that people were taking action on this. Like it or not, you do have a responsibility not to just crawl into a hole and go totally silent on what is going on and where this thing is going in the future. The way this has been handled by Tom is really quite disappointing and surprising to many of us and has pretty much destroyed his reputation. His random claim that he had an issue with FTP that he'd soon disclose nearly a year ago has just further disintegrated his reputation. But you guys can all shed some light on where things stand now, and too many people are involved for you to just ignore it and hope it goes away.
Please just inform the community, and where there is any power in the situation, push to make some kind of conclusion to this horrible challenge. And even if you don't have the power to influence this thing in a positive way, at least inform people of whatever you know about the situation.
