| Q: Why should i refer more players, arent my chances of winning better when there are less players? [TOP] |
| A: That couldn't be further from the truth! Well, unless you are totally satisfied with the small prizes we currently provide. But if you would like a chance to win HUGE prizes and tons of cash, that is not the case. Personally I would much rather have a chance to win larger prizes and more cash, even if my chances of winning were a little less. Besides, if we had millions of members, imagine how much your 'Member Rewards Program' check would be each month! I mean, you would be like a "Shareholder" of MCC for FREE! I sure hope other members don't see it this way! We all have to think on a much larger scale. Try to imagine if you could get even a small portion of the profit from huge sites like facebook, google, myspace, amazon, etc. I'm really not sure what more I can do to get my point across. :-( Very sincerely, Bill B. billb@mycoolcontests.com PS.
