Yes. Stormy Weather was not bad.

Jesus... I didn't know I could win so much. I gotta run to fetch my counterfeit passports to open some more accounts on BRM.

Posted by magatt966: ADMIN CHANGED ANSWER LOOOOOOLLL
First I was pretty sure you were kidding me. I mean why would I believe you when there is a saying "Mai fidarsi di un italiano in pantaloncini rossi". But then I clicked the door and I indeed received a new phrase (but the same outcome).
Administrator, thank you. You are the best. I immediately feel much better.

lmfao mate
the reason is I never wear "pantaloncini rossi"
and be aware I'd have written the same exact post even if admin wouldn't have changed it lol

Way to go schmoyster!
Not only did your post put a smile on our faces and a chuckle in our bellies, but you have affected real change here at BankrollMob!
to you, schmoyster!
I have never been so delighted to click a calendar door and be told I "did not win again" - but in a new, playful, witty, Admin-esque manner.
To add to my delight, I immediately checked this thread and it appears there are now several different "did not win again" messages. Each carefully crafted by our clever and mischevious Admin to titillate our neurons while delivering the same old bad news in a fresh new package.
(In sotto Smeagol voice) - "Admin-Master. Admin-Master looks after us. Admin-Master wouldn't hurt us. Come on Mobbits. Long ways to go yet. Admin-Master will show the way. Click the doors, click the doors, click the doors! LEAVE! NOW! AND COME BACK IN AN HOUR!"
Tricksy Admin-master has now actually made us like losing!
All hail Admin-Master!
You are so much more fun than the humourless, megalomaniac running the pee-stars forum.

ahahhaha Nice thread.
I think you have written what ever BRM member have thought at least once.
Well, today I clicked the door and guess what (No, I did not win if thought that) I saw that the famous sentence "you did not win this time" has changed. I have to recognize that when I did not saw the same phrase I thought I had won something, but every remains the same although under a new design. At least Admin changed the phrase, so we can say that u win a little bit this time.
big up 4 schmoyster who managed to get some real change on this sites mechanism, still next time you could be asking for more calendar prizes though but making better 'goodbye looser' throwaways probably easier than that honestly im curious that the betting contest when will appear out of the blue (the testing phase seems to take forever) it would probably the most favourite out of the games for many mobster IMO cuz that would be the only one where you dont rely on pur luck to cash in

Mobbit Admin have really pushed the boat out on this one! A whole range of new responses, such that I don't think I have seen the same 'tough you lost again' message in the last seven attempts at the calendar...... I have to say I was gutted when I saw that I was close..... If only I'd clicked the next window!

When comes to say bad news the trick is to say them.Just open your mouth and spit them out.Do no get around and try to make a nice scenario.That's my way to see things.So,here i currently catch myself to try to read a sentence which the bottom line suggests the obvious:Idid not win this time.When saying this time dear site you can replace this with a countdown:four days and counting etc.To be honest i won 50 Mob safe shots this week endind a month's bad luck.But i agree saying you was close,doent make sense.i will open all the fives doors and i wii still get the"you was close "message

Have faith and be optimist. Is your glass half full or half empty? You were just as close to winning as you were far away from winning, either you win or you don't.
