I've seen dozens of them on Party at 5/10 play money. I was alarmed when they first started, but no one else seemed to notice or care, so I assumed Party was either aware of it or doing it themselves for some strange reason. The user name is always all caps, exactly 12 characters, often containing one or more underlines. I never saw, or at least recognized, the same name twice. It pops up in an empty chair and its chip count starts growing rapidly, by large increments, into many millions, and then it disappears. It never posts and is never dealt cards.

When I complained to Party about another anomaly, my chips simply vanishing off a play money table, their response was "we use the same software for real money and play money table, therefore there's no problem." I didn't bother them with this one because their response would no doubt be the same.

Drinking really doesn't cause you to hallucinate with screenshots.

Saw the same thing at Pacific last night on their play money. I assume it was a glitch in the software..

No, but if you've done it right it will cause a serious issue with time perception. Ever notice a really drunk person moves in slow motion? Add a few short mini passouts ...

I know that if you get low enough, there's a give me more play chips button. They probably just found a workaround to use that even when they have chips.

I spent a few minutes lurking on the Party 5/10 play money and found the same one on three different tables. MO always the same, drop into an empty seat, start rolling up the number of chips to over 100,000,000, this time by increments of 5,000, never posts, never gets dealt cards, and then disappears within less than a minute. In chat someone asked where she got all those chips, so at least I know we're not alone in the sightings.
