Thanks for that information as I was curious as to which banking network the Winner's Card would go through. Another curiosity about "the Card" is, is there anyone out there that has one and if so what is your opinion about the way it works (or doesn't). I have applied but have not been sent one even though I am in a "forbidden" gambling area.
Lastly I sent a suggestion to Skinner that it might be a nice investor relations move to send each stockholder "the Card"....if they have time of course.

Mr. Provocateur,

It is indeed good to know exactly which ATM systems will be servicing the WINR debit card. The "INTERLINK" system I am not familiar with (perhaps this is a European or international ATM system), but the "CIRRUS" system I am very familiar with, as there are probably over a hundred (100) within fifteen (15) minutes of me (2 within walking distance).

As for when the WINR debit card will be ready for issuance, I have no idea. But, I would agree the sooner the better. On a speculative note, just wondering if, since the CMS & CLT (the bank) will actually be the ones issuing the cards, if they have been monitoring the system for a short period to make sure it holds up before issuing the cards. Also, since the shoppingdowntown.com site is a part of the CMS, I am curious as to whether they may be planning to coincide the grand opening of shoppingdowntown with the cards issuance. This site is the real wild card in the whole mix. If/when the CMS opens shoppingdowntown.com it will be interesting to see the number and international diversity of merchants on the site. It has been up and actively pursuing and taking merchant applications from around the world for a number of months now. If these two events were to coincide and shoppingdowntown was to open with over a hundred world wide merchants it could get very interesting around here.

Just some random thoughts on a gray and drizzly Friday morning.

Best Wishes,
Swedelo
