Yeah....it's never happened before, but I've never won like this before either.  Good wins are are very far and few between on bitvest, but I play the long game....I bet big and go for the long shots knowing that some day the long shots will pay.  I didn't realize that it would be so difficult to collect after a good win because I've only made withdrawals large enough for the hot wallet to handle.  <-- That's what hurts....I've been believing in the site for a long time, thinking that it would pay off when I win in the long run. And when they refused to acknowledge me after all the money I spent waiting for this day to come, it hurt something fierce.  I was betting upto $125 a drop (10x 0.005 eth) and I was deep in the hole, so when I finally hit, I was ecstatic....then they didn't pay.  Day after day they ignored my tickets, my pms, my posts - I even had other mods submit pms on my behalf.  I was patient, until I wasn't patient anymore -- what set me off was when one of the site's investors pm'd me and suggested I might get negative trusted if I posted a complaint on BitcoinTalk....I don't take to that type of stuff very well and it set me off.

Anyway, I loved the site and I've never had a problem their before....I've actually won, and withdrew, several times with the free tokens they give away.  I don't know what's going on with site behind the scenes right now, but something ain't right.  I tried contacting him every way I could imagine and even had some of the mods try contacting him on my behalf.  I tried everything.  He still hasn't reached out to me. I mean, if lightlord is having personal  problems, I could understand because I love the site....just acknowledge me.

Here's some of the PMs for the record (I have more):
