Good luck to you! and yes its social and pyramidal, we are going to be doing an overhaul of the system soon  after some deliberation and we will be giving a little more back to the losers. Going to have a meeting with our dev staff about it.

Remember the best way to pass a treasure is to alert people to it, when I played the gem game way back I didnt wait for people to just happen across it I plugged it everywhere lol, its fun times. lost a bunch won a bunch ended up coming out just above even eventually.

Spread the word and pass that treasure off!
