I'll be mostly unavailable between 7th - 20th September. During this period, please do not expect a response to emails, and it's unlikely I'll be available for calls. It is also best you do NOT plan to send me spins for analysis during this period.
Roulette computer players can still request access codes, but it's best to sms me the codes and I'll respond directly. If you don't yet have my mobile phone number, email me. Please do NOT actually call my mobile unless it is absolutely urgent.
For now I'm working on getting all work up to date, which includes shipping of items, spin analysis, emails etc. I'll be up to date by the end of the week.

Roulette Computer Partners
For partners waiting for the roulette computer: I have a few modified phones left to send, but I also have an extra bunch on the way that the technician will be done with in roughly 2 weeks. Some of you will be shipped a computer early next week though.
The issues holding us up are:
1. A few extra mods to the software to make application easier (as foolproof as possible). This will only take a matter of days, including testing.
2. The plugs used by the new hardware are not durable enough, so the technician is working on finding a better solution. The plug has specific requirements that aren't simple. This may take him about a week to fully sort out, test etc.
3. As soon as the above is done, I'll ship out the remaining phones I have in stock (there's enough for about 2 more partners/teams, and the rest go to purchasers)
4. I have a load of new/unmodified phones that are going to the technician in a few days, and it'll take him about 2 weeks to complete them all. And even if that's not enough, there are even more coming.
To summarize: within roughly 2 weeks, I expect that every "approved" partner will be shipped their computers. Believe me I'm doing all I can to get every player what they need asap. If I don't "personally" keep you updated, do NOT take this as a lack of interest or enthusiasm on my part for our partnership. Understand that if you are an approved partner, I'm just as keen as you are and it will not change.
TO PROSPECTIVE PARTNERS: Soon I'll be releasing a "lite" version of the roulette computer. It is basically a simplified version of the computer that will be sent for either free or cost price to potential partners. It will run on different hardware, so the cost price will be approximately US$500 with shipping. It will NOT be as accurate or powerful as the full version (Uber), but it will still be more accurate and practical than any computer from another vendor, and will still beat the average wheel. The purpose of this simplified version will be to give potential partners the chance to prove themselves as serious and productive. Productive partners will then be sent the full version.
Generally when I assess partners, they fall into three categories:
1. Either a current system player that has proven themselves to be serious, or a ready team that has visited me or taken various steps to prove they are serious: such players/teams typically receive the full version computer from the start. If you are already a player of mine or have actually taken the time to visit me personally for a day-long demo, chances are you'll be accepted as a partner.
2. An enthusiastic player, but not in a strong position for serious play. For example, they may be a very enthusiastic student, but without money or time. It doesn't take much money to start up, unless you need to travel far to find casinos. And students tend to be busy with study. I like to give such players the opportunity, but there is rarely enough stock available to send them. I have taken chances on such players, and most prove their commitments inhibit progress as partners. However, the occasional risk with such players has certainly paid off.
3. A player that raises many red flags. They may not be who they claim to be, and I simply don't trust them.
I can never have enough of #1. Of course I don't bother with #3. And normally I don't have enough stock for #2, but this will change because I'll be using cheaper hardware that's easy to modify. The full two-player version Uber costs me roughly $2000 to have made (excluding cost of actual development which is enormous). The "lite" version will only cost me about $500, and doesn't have the most important features, so I can afford to send them out to many players as part of an assessment for partnership with the full version computer. I may even send the lite version to purchasers of other roulette computers so they can see even my most basic version is more powerful than the best version of other computer developers.

Roulette Computers and Spin Analysis
Roulette computers: If you're a partner and waiting for a roulette computer, it will not be long until you receive one. At this stage I have only a few computers left of this batch, and those waiting may or may not receive a computer from this batch. If you miss out this time, you are only about 2 weeks behind so it is no big deal, although I do recognize some of you are making plans based on the timing that you'll receive a computer. I can only give rough estimates for timing for now. I understand some of you have been waiting for a while, but stock goes to purchasers first.
Every day I receive emails from partners asking "when". The answer is simply when it is possible. Keep in mind I have an incredible amount of work to do. If you aren't contacted every day by my personally keeping you updated, it does NOT mean I do not care, or that I have forgotten. Understand I have a lot of people pulling me in different directions, and I need to prioritize.
By Tuesday next week, most of the remaining approved partners will know an accurate date of when they be shipped a computer. If you haven't received at least the instructions yet, let me know and I'll send them to get you started. If you have applied for partnership and haven't gotten a response yet, you will regardless of the outcome.
For those of you that have received the computers already (partner or otherwise), don't forget you need to call me personally - I need to discuss some issues before you set foot in the casino. There are some things I wont discuss via email.
Spin Analysis: all spin analysis will be complete by the end of tomorrow.

Latest roulette computer instructions complete
The instructions for the Uber 1.0 roulette computer are now complete. You can download them from the same location as the initial instructions. First delete the older copy so there is no confusion. You will not need additional access codes.
Now I'll get back to shipping the rest of the computers. If you are still waiting, rest assured I have not forgotten. There are only 8 or so left to go for now, so if you haven't been sent the parcel tracking details yet, you will be soon.

I'm just about finished the latest computer instructions (for the Uber). The basic parts of the instructions are done, and the rest of it was almost completed today - just ran out of time. It'll take me about 2 hours to do the rest. When done, I'll contact you directly.
