Amusingly enough, Seals is also how I found bitcoins and I tried to play on SWC through the summer but the games just dried up so much that there was never really any games to play.
I'm in the same boat. I used to love seals. While it wasn't actually how I first found bitcoin, it was one of the first things I did with bitcoin when I found it. They had an open and accessible platform, no bullshit, no collecting personal data, etc. Beautiful.
I finally came to grips that seals actually died back in the day and swc is simply not sealwithclubs. It's a different site with different management and different principles. The new site is focused on Windows players and we see how that worked out. As far as I can tell, it's just a long slow deathride here. It's unfortunate but we may as well come to grips with the reality. Pretending it's not real doesn't make it any less real.
Don't take this the wrong way dude, but its hard to take your opinion seriously when you have a betcoin referral signature.
I'm not sure if you know this, but if you're on a mac or linux, you can easily set up a free Virtual Machine that runs windows, as well as use teamviewer on your smartphone or tablet to play remotely.
out of all of their problems, the fact that they are focused on windows is not the worst of them.
