Hmmm... okay. I'm sure that there are other terms for this same kind of thing in almost every game. In poker, it would be called the "House Rake." It's a percentage that the house takes out of every pot at a casino. Not exactly analogous, but near enough if you think about it. Skimming has kind of a negative context to it, whereas "the rake" is pretty much understood and accepted by casino players. (while it isn't thought of positively, it is accepted that the house has to be compensated for providing the venue and facilities for a game.)
My question is: When is registration going to up on Birdshot's website?
