TournaMAXX is Dead
« on: October 17, 2019, 12:35:41 pm »
AMI will officially be discontinuing Online TournaMAXX at the the end of 2019.

That is 20 less thorns in my side and $900 less out of pocket going toward paying the Prizes and the $25 per month per game fee for registration.

Sweet.

We received a letter direct from AMI. 

We have been operating TournaMAXX games since their inception.  Their discontinuation is long overdue.  The money it costs to pay the prizes and register the machines is more than the revenue they currently generate on location. Plus there is the hassle of internet connectivity. and the machines 'calling in'.  We kept doing it because the competition kept doing it.

I have been begging for this news for the last five years.
