Anyone with 5 minutes and a brain could do that. Are you trying to argue someone couldn't easily replace track.php with their own code and make it simulate yours? Because if you are, you're a moron.

I am more than willing to achieve my bet. But of course, I'd need it to be sanctioned by you guys so that you couldn't turn around and badger me later.

All I sense is arrogance. If you sanction it, I could write a track.php which could easily implement shaving TRANSPARENTLY.

But since you're throwing things like "We're going to sue you!" out there - why would I bother? I just find it funny you're so naive and so arrogant.
That is what I am talking about, you can easily make a track.php of your own which loads our track.php 80% of the time and the other times just does the redirect to the tour. But unless you pass the reseller id along, it is NOT transparent is it? And once you do that, as long as you do not make other changes to the system, the sale is tracked.

I am not arrogant btw, and not naive. I'm proud of my programming, thats it really.
