I don't think you can? Unless someone sends you the installer?

In all fairness I think that is looking too far ahead. We still don't know how much money we are getting if any, plus it is likely that it won't be for a long time.

One of the young BTP Pros (GODLIKEROY) lives in Brisbane so I guess I could always ask him to pick me up a cheque.

I'm not too worried about how to get paid - they are a large accountanacy firm - they will do cheque/bank transfers or whatever.

It's when and how much that is the issue at the moment.

If liquidations are going well sometimes there is an early interim dividend paid out to creditors (with a small final dividend to tidy it up later).

At least it is in legitimate (if expensive) hands in a decent jurisdiction.

We're just going to have to hang tight for now I think.

Four days ago I wrote a PM and an email to Rednines. They have not answered yet. I hope they are visiting the liquidator right now and not just ignoring me. It's already frustrating enough that Microgaming doesn't care for us, I hope R9 is not going to do the same...

Maybe this has been said before, but: shouldnt the skins fill in JUST ONE form for there whole player base???? It seems like a lot more (and useless hours that make our money worth less since its spend on liquidation costs directly) work to help every player individualy.... Im getting more and more suspicious here....

R9's BFP (or other skins), can any of u explain why this isnt done directly with u guys?

I'm curious as to whether someone from Microgaming follows this thread day by day and reads what we the players think of all this business.

That's not how the law works, from what I gather.

I'd imagine MGS could offer to advocate for us. Perhaps we'd have to sign something first, I don't know.

Both of these statements are somewhat correct. In order for Micro to make a global claim, each person would have to assign their rights to Micro individually. Micro could then make a claim on behalf of a class. The problem that exists with this is that a separate agreement would need to be made with each player indicating a hi/low (or percentage) of what they are willing to accept from the liquidation.

In reality it would just not be practical. A person owed a high percentage of the monetary pool would stand a better chance individually on the way the plan is voted on. Plus, since there would be an additional middleman, each individual would wait longer for their funds to be returned.

People with low amounts owed will normally be all for someone doing the work for them. It is a different situation completely though for the players with the most to lose. I also doubt Micro would do this for free. This would further dilute the amount of funds available for distribution.

I'm not sure to what extent they would be able to charge for advising/assisting in a liquidation under OZ law - you might have to be licensed for that sort of thing. Also charging would just hurt their reputation even more amongst the player base (if that is possible).

But why involve Microgaming?
How hard is it to fire an email off to the liquidators and attach a scan of their claim form?

I've just received an e-mail from Sims Partners stating that Tusk had ceased to operate before they were appointed and also stating they are "unable" to say whether there's money left (and if so how much) and when (if at all) they are going to pay the creditors back. Together with that there's an official proof of debt general form and a promiss of a soon to come detailed report.

Anyone else got this, any thoughts?
