ZYNGO&DEAL終了のお知らせ
昨日ログインしていろんなグループの通知をチェックしていたところ
Aargle Zymurgy Systems(ZYNGOのオーナーズグループ)から
緊急でこんなグループ通知が11月8日付けで届いてました。

Hey! You're in my group, so you're a good customer an you will know this information first.
First thing: disable autoplay for Zyngo games. Do it now.
Second thing: the auto v manual isn't minor. One serious player felt good players gained a small advantage over auto-play players. With this new ruling from the governance team, you, as owner, can't slack. Watch game-play. Be sensitive to your players. One pro I talked to said manual players tended to have an edge. The game has changed, so wise up.
Third thing: why? LL said so. Here is the e-mail I received in full:
Hello,
We're sending this message to you as we have identified the Second Life account associated with this email address as one which is either engaged in the development or operation of games which fall under our policy on wagering, which can be found here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Policy_Regarding_Wagering_in_Second_Life
This policy permits games of skill, and games like Zyngo and Deal have been determined to fit that definition. A recent review of the play of several games found that certain versions of these games have features which we have determined to be in violation of the policy as they have automated certain elements of play which need to be performed manually by the player in order for the game to fit the definition of a game of skill.
After careful consideration, we have determined that we can not allow any game which permits the automation of play in such a manner as to enable the player to allow the game to perform certain skill based tasks in the course of play that they would otherwise need to do themselves, when: a) game play is enabled with the payment of L$, and b) when the L$ payment then makes the player eligible to receive L$ as a result. Examples of games and play which fit this definition are the "auto-play" features on games like Zyngo and Deal.
Effective immediately, all games which meet this definition are required to either be free-play with no opportunity for L$ to be paid as a result of play, or for games which will continue to require payment of L$ to begin game play, the auto-play features described above must be disabled.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at this email address.

まぁ簡単に言えばオートプレイ今すぐ切れやってことでしょうね。
正確には「もうそういう機能つけちゃだめよ?」って意味合いでLLから
注意されただけなのにAZが過敏に反応してるだけって気もしますが。
実際私がよくいくZYNGO屋さんに足を運んでみたら

ちゃんと全文掲載した上でオートプレイをオフにしてたようでした。
これで懐かしのVer.2.X時代に逆戻りですねヽ(´∀`)ノ
別のお店に行ったらたまに世間話をするマレーシア人のオーナーがいて
頭を抱えてました。そりゃSIMまで買って何十台も並べてたら私も抱えます。
1ゲームあたりのプレイ時間が大幅に伸びますし複数台同時プレイもこれで
もうできませんからね。収入も激減でしょう。
うちのカフェはグループ加入したお客様専用・・・というか自分専用に
数台置いてるだけなのでぱっと撤去しちゃえばなんも問題ないですが。
でもプレイヤーの立場になって考えたらオートがないんじゃ面倒くさくて
遊ぶ気にはもうならないです。マニュアルだとピエロと数字の消す順番を
選べるから勝ちやすいのは確かですけど、一度楽な生活を覚えてしまうと
人間なかなか昔の生活には戻れないものです。
まぁおかげでZYNGOから卒業ですヽ(´∀`)ノ
