For my personal 'variance tolerance' as an investor I think a 0.5% maxbet would have been the best to start with. Still, changing the rules mid-game without much notice was in my opinion not the best decision. It is obvious that such a change would seriously offend our number one customer. Even though he was up a lot, I believed that he had no intention of stopping and that he would eventually give a decent portion of his winnings back to the site. I would say that the investors who never divested (myself included) now have a seriously lower chance of ever getting a return on their investment.
