Tina if you do *good* business with Gambit-Soft, maybe you could remind them
that it's bad business not to award prises when won in a contest!

I and about 33% of _All_ winners playing against Deep Shredder vs The World
NEVER recieved our winnings! This is very bad business, IMHO.

I wrote them time and again and NEVER recieved an answer!
