Yeah, i know that now but what was it like during those few precious moments while you could. :P
I ran by there this morning and its still empty 
I would have liked to check it out before they canned it. I heard a rummor that it was accepting a certain "very-cheap item" as a ticket (or whatever it was they give you)..... I didn't get a chance to test it though as the zone crashed when I tried to go there. Then when the zone came back up it was gone (along with the level I had just gained).

It was like this:
Go to wood elf NPC in barren room and buy "token" for 100pp
Hand token to casino guy NPC
Be told "Sorry, your hand is not a winner."
That was it. There was no "game" to it, just a random response back from the NPC you gave the token to. Once in a while you'd get a prize of extra token, No Drop stat food (yay) or other assorted bits and bobs. But really the couple guards in Echo Caverns playing King's Court at the table looked more like a casino than the barren basement of some joint.

Wow. Regular ol' Joph fan club in here.
Does Sony have an idea of how much Plat is currently being produced in the game? Can they keep a running tally on all new money generated? Do they have a "bottom Line" so to speak?
My reasoning is based on the limited time the casino was open after the supposed plat duping controversy.
Would Sony have implemented the Casino just to remove the "excess" platinum from the game and then cancelled it once the "bottom Line" was back in order?
I have no idea how many characters were in the zone of ShadowHaven at one time. Typically there are 400-800 players in the bazaar and it never crashes (at least not very often).
This topic may have already been beaten dead so please be gentle with your reply's.
Thanks in Advance
