You are welcome. But if I had a whitelist you couldn't be there only because I don't know you yet. Whitelists are enormous blacklists, almost infinite, but with a nicer name. They exclude all the humanity except the chosen ones. And there are a lot of good people among the human beings that don't deserve to be excluded without reason.

I was talking about the essence of the lists, black or white, not about what you should do, and I wrote good people to emphasize the concept . They are both faces of the same coin, they do the same thing: exclude/include.The verb doesn't matter, because they are like a wall that separate two sides, if they are including or excluding depends on your point of view. Knowing that, everyone is free to use them like they prefer. A lot of people love whitelist and hate blacklist, but they really do the same dirty work, they are the same thing. The only difference to obtain the same result with them is the quantity of work needed: is it simpler to exclude or include a determinate number of people? It is only a mathematical and mouse clicking difference. I hope I was able to make myself clear.

Thank you for the answer. Maybe it is that. But I don't understand clearly this reason either, because in value what I gifted was more that what I won. I think it will remain a mystery.

Congrats on the win and for being big enough to post a public thank you without calling the gifter out. You've got an interesting take on blacklists, one that I'd never considered before and it's given me pause to consider my whitelisting actions.

The worst thing is that unfortunately there are many whitelist also in everyday life. They exclude many people from education, work, health, human rights. The criteria can be various: friendship, color, religion, nationality. The result does not change: they only create exclusion.I believe it is right to always apply the right way of thinking, both to serious issues as to silly ones, not to lose sight of the guiding principle.

First post to say thank you for a won game. Usually I write it in the giveaway page, but the giver blacklisted me after I won. I am writing it here because I can't access that page anymore. I prefer blacklists rather than whitelists, to exclude the rotten apples is better than give privileges to small groups, therefore I will not write against them and not against the giver, everyone has his own blacklisting reasons. I don't know if I am a rotten apple and why but... anyway, thank you for the game.
Bump is welcome.
For your time: iFC31
