coffee_shop, there is another site out there offering COD4 cash tournaments nightly.

Why is this news? There are several well established sites out there that offer the same service. These sites have been open to the public for several years.

I just got an email from them saying I'll be invited into the BETA on Tuesday and I cant wait! My friend is in it now and says it's really cool.

He says they have automatic verification for the games so that there are no he said/she said BS over who wins the games like on the other sites. i think we're finally going to get what we want!!!! Cant wait : )

Some of the above smack of fake posts. I know a guy who ran a dive of a tanning salon that was always in trouble with the BBB etc and was constantly leaving post in similar language to the ones above on local community sites that were full of 180-degree criticisms.

Nothing against WorldGaming, I'm sure its a fine site, but I almost expected to read a post saying"...and I never got crabs! Not once!"

And what's with the email address 'crypted like a viagra spam-mailer: "cnet [at] worldgaming [dot] com''?

Why are there alarms in the back of my head about this whole story?
