There use to be a guy active a year or two back (when I started Hellmoo) that was literally rich as fuck due to blackjack.
He clearly used some kind of method, but they've probably coded it out.

[Kagus]

$100,000 from the tables isn't rich enough for you then?  In three visits?

...alright, so I lost it back, but still.

[Apple Master]

No that's pretty good.
I was just pointing out that there used to be a system and therefore there may be one now.

[Ivefan]

The system might just be Xcard=rnd*13.

[Taco Dan]

Xcard=rnd*13.

Uh, what? If rnd is round, that doesn't work, especially since the card values don't go past 11.

[Ivefan]

rnd would be random and there are 13 different cards.
Thread derailment?

[Taco Dan]

Technically, we are talking about an element of the game. So it doesn't count.

Dinaxio jumped me again in the orphanage.  Attempting to feint with my superior intellect gained me about a microsecond of time, which wasn't very helpful.

However, while I was still hemmed in by him and trying to escape before his next headbutt came down, an enforcer droid appeared and destroyed him.

So now I've got dinaxio's head, if anybody wants.  And I'm watching his cocoon to see if he'll come back in time to pick it up.


EDIT:  He did come back in time, and he tried attacking me again.  But I was too fast, I ran out of the way before he could nab me.  I've stuck his head, along with his penis, inside of a cooler bag (couldn't really afford to buy that, but this was worth it).

[Ivefan]

Embalm it and put it on display

[Rakonas]

You can get embalming fluid underneath the orphanage, barring that I may have some in my apartment.

[Ancient Thingy]

Science is worth it if you eventually want to be a brainy brain.

[Taco Dan]

So I'm coming out of Sharpton, minding my own business, when along comes NDY, he mugs me for 1k. Leaving the area, I run into Rat who kills me and takes all my stuff. Then I'm pretty sure the server crashed before I could find out where he left my gear. I might as well be fresh out of the museum right now.

I was thinking of rerolling anyway, because I ended up losing my N-tag at age 17.

Embarassingly, I think my brawn is about the same as his, more in the sunlight. I could probably kill him easily if we were fighting in a high place.

I think the blackjack thing was the fact you could make bets during a match, so you could basically play till you got a nigh unbeatable hand, then bet the maximun possible, and win with the new bet.

[Kagus]

Dinaxio was waiting in the lobby of the Bradbury when I came home.  He attacked me the instant I came inside, but I was already moving up the stairs.  I hope he hasn't found out where I live...
