---SKIP THIS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO READ MY STORY---
Title says most of it. I won a Purple Partyhat one and a half month ago at Cora's 12.5b dropparty, I sold it for 740m back then and started gambling, my stack went down a lot and then fluctuated from 400-700m. I got my account back which was +120m, lost 70m to the guy who bought Razil's acount (or Razil himself, I don't know.), won 100m bet, ... After I won the partyhat I got involved in the clan, got to know some people, and then made a host application. First post on forums, yup, I'm one of the guys. Big hopes, like a lot of you people have. After a few weeks I figured that it was an almost impossible job to become a host, seeing all the people that have been here for months. I thought I would end up cleaned and lonely, even though then still I atleast would've been able to set my thoughts on something else other than irl stuff. I might explain the irl stuff later, but I'm not sure if you guys really care (it are emotions, watch out).
I didn't give up on becoming a host, I just figured that getting to know the hosts and regurarly help out the clan and becoming a veteran would be better than being someone that joins Cora, tries his best to get accepted for a week, gets cleaned and leaves. And then I heard about new rankups, Slash for example. There was a lot of confusion, especially about Charlie who supposedly got ranked (Andy said he got accepted but then afterwards said he didn't.) but didn't. I didn't even know I had a pm (even though I was on forums) untill a few hours later I checked my mail and saw I a got a pm, saying I got accepted. What? The first thing I literally said to the hosts in cc/chatbox/ts was: 'Is Andy high or hacked?'. Then I got confirmed by some hosts that it's true and then I got confirmed by Andy himself. I really didn't believe it.
I also realise there are a lot of people that think others deserved it more than me or that are just jealous because I got accepted so quickly. I hope I can change those people's minds by me being a good host, which I am trying to be.
Right before I got accepted I started a flipping log, trying to make my way back to my partyhat (making 10m the first day), which would take like a month. If I would be lucky while flipping. This thread is to continue my road to my Purple Partyhat, hosting instead of flipping. I decided to quit gambling and not call any bets unless they're under 500k (I tried calling everything under 1m but I ended up losing 4m, gf my rolls) or if it's not getting called and other people want to bet (I rather lose a bet than having a high downtime on being able to host).
