That gambling crap is one thing I don't like on Istripper.
I think we're being a bit hard on Totem here. Not that I've ever joined in on the TGIF games, but the guys at Totem have been slogging away for over a decade, producing a quality product that requires continuous refreshment, and they make less in a year that the producers of Fortnite make in an afternoon from selling their loot boxes to gullable ten-year-olds. (ok I've got no evidence for that, but, if Totem was really raking it they'd all have sold out and retired to Hawaii by now.)
Plus a lot of people like it. And most of the people to grumble about the special event cards are those who want to possess a complete collection, who must be a minority.
At least Totem are explicit about their in-app money-***** schemes and don't try to trick us with camouflaged send-money buttons and psych warfare.
Come to think of it,
@Rex has been silent for a while now. I hope he's enjoying Hawaii.
