Always careful when I hear blame on short seller or naked shorts ! 

1. management has proven to be simply not competent or ready to lead a public company and investors who had their money tied up with them due to otc stop sign restrictions are now running for the hills

2. Short selling is HIGH risk with unlimited loss potential so good short sellers due excellent DD and bad once have a big bank account and manipulate their way into profitable positions and still come out ok. Not too often is there a stampede for the hills on short covering IMO

3. BID sitting Ask hitting and filled at price midpoint I have bought & received fills all the way around 

4. Pissed at management since they took this good opportunity for SnL cafe & game concept and didn't follow through on a single timeline! Destroyed confidence and now "no answer" from either one of them at least for my multiple tries

maybe you can elaborate a little more on your conversation with Ben if you had one yet please ....

thank you
