Did you just hear the quote from Thomas Jefferson?
"We don't have rule of the majority, we have rule of the majority that participates."
That is the reality.

Jimmy Kimmel says, "The audience is horny for Johnny Depp."
I'd say that is good for SEGI.
SEGI
I am going to bed a richer man...
Jimmy Kimmel is going to br right back with Johnny Depp promoting "Black Mass"
SEGI
Did you not hear Ed in the 1st Q&A that recognized their position with Black Mass?
THEY PROVIDED A LOT OF INVESTORS WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET IN AND THEY MISSED IT... SEGI IS IN!
SEGI
Are you kidding? SEGI has a portion of Black Mass! How intelligent are you people?
SEGI
Johnny Depp is on Jimmy Kimmel NOW...
Promoting "his" movie Black Mass.
Remember hearing about that?
SEGI
We'll have my party on his island!

As do I!

I know CAYO does!!

When this audit shows up, do you think the value of this stock should increase? Bring it on Ed, we are ready to see the value!
SEGI
He has now tweeted he'll be back on tomorrow for the "Live Q and A"
Follow through...that is what Sycamore needs!
Follow through, truth and communication is the key to good marketing!
SEGI
What I heard...
Little to no chance of a reverse split.
EOTS revenue in the 6 figures...
Simeon and Ed are still talking and working together...
BOTS broke even 1st season, but promising to exponentially grow...
Investors recognizing the value of SEGI (I question rather that's good for shareholder/gamblers)...
Ed has pulled his "Letter From The CEO" and apologized for it.
The timing on the web site and the audit eta(???) seem to coincide with each other (3 weeks from now)...
The quarterlies and going current (again) is now only days away.
All that sounds good...My biggest concern now, I don't see that he ever got back on for the "Live Q and A" as he said he would do today. (That is the trend that concerns me).
:-? SEGI
Hola, mi amigo!
I agree, Ed looked better today than he has for 1 1/2 years...
Once again Sycamore looks ready to launch...
I too, want to tell Ed I look forward to his and Sycamore's success...CAYO and I have both put a lot of money where our mouth is.
My question now, why not share these things all along? You have good answers, you have things "in the pipeline", why make people question you?
I've invested enough that the ball is not in my court or yours CAYO, it's in Ed's. Will he deliver or won't he...He looked good today.
I'm glad he heard my questions and the so many he spoke into today.
As my wise Mexican-American friend has said, "Time will tell."
SEGI
Prove me wrong ED!
Prove to me we (shareholders/gamblers) will make money...
Prove to me you can deliver some returns/income/profits...
Prove to me there's an audit...
Prove to me you care about shareholders...
Prove to me you won't just continue to say you'll do things and then never deliver on those promises (the list is long and getting longer) and the list of accomplishments has not grown proportionally...
Prove to me you ARE a marketer...
Some think I may being emotional, but I am just coming to terms with the facts. Some say I will certainly lose money here because I got emotional. The fact is I already lost lots of money here unemotionally trusting someone who said they had things in place (a pipeline, amongst others) and who "cared about shareholders". At this point, emotionally or unemotionally, I am not throwing more money this direction.
If Ed continues his cat and mouse games, I'll have saved money. If he "proves me wrong" and "proves himself", I'll still make lots of money.
As the saying goes, "Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."
I am who I say I am and I do what I say I'll do...That's a fact!
Best of luck to all of you, whoever you are!

Might as well unsticky the "Letter from the CEO"
He is trying to reinvent himself...It is gone!
www.edsylvan.com is gone!
His letter is gone, but surely my memory is not.
I was not going to send this until I saw that. Now I will...
Here are my questions:
You're ignoring shareholders frustrations, told us we'll not make money from your company as shareholders and as one of your most ardent supporters, you banned me from your Twitter because ???
Because I was totally frustrated with your inactivity, your lack of professionalism, your inaccurate eta's and the change of attitude you demonstrated from 1 and a half years ago to now, your lack of addressing real and pertinent questions and I finally shared some of that frustration.
My stock account would love for you to show me I am wrong for the frustrations. My faith in you caused others to have faith in you and now they are standing to lose many thousands, tens of thousands of $$'s based on that. I would love for you to show I have no reason to be frustrated, but I do not see it yet. I am now embarrassed for having believed in you.
You're supposed to be a marketer, but what I have seen in the last year and a half is the ability to create a lack of trust and for people to want nothing to do with you. That is not marketing.
You are apparently having a hard time creating excitement on Twitter, you don't update your Facebook, Pinterest is lame (your photos are amateurish) and now even the Periscope is homemade looking...and you want to market movies?
My questions:
Why should anyone believe you?
Why should anyone trust you
Why should anyone else put hard earned money behind you?
You're right, the people you give super bargain basement priced stock (.00000025 [plus or minus a zero] per share to, who then make a killing selling it for .0001 and .0002), they probably do love you, trust you and want to see you continue. You never offered that to me!
Too bad you think I'm broke and you cut me off. I would have given you $10 or $20 grand (hey in fact I still could and more) but do you think I would now? You have bit off your own nose to spite your face.
No, you do not have a friend or supporter with me any longer.
Last question:
Why would I be?
SEGI
I think that is why Simeon was disappointed with Ed. The way I understand the way Ed writes his contracts, they get their payment for what they did from the 1st returns and it is a percentage. So Simeon signed that contract, excepted the deal and then was very disappointed on what Ed delivered. Very much like us who gambled and got stuck.
Bad for everybody except Ed...in the long run he is only hurting himself and the company he says he's so proud of building because his reputation is now preceding him. IMHO, every day he is making it more and more difficult for us all, including himself to see any future returns.
So much BS! The DD is amaturish (at the least!)
Emotional and incomplete...
I look forward to Ed embarrassing me and the others who are angry at him for letting us down, but I feel like I would be remiss and foolish to not admit it looks like Ed has taken us for a ride.
One can be hopeful, but I think we should at least acknowledge what the apparent truth is.
SEGI
Ed is not sending me good signals.
As much as I have put into his company, offered him investor viewpoints and shared my confidence in him...
Now he has blocked me from following him on Twitter (as if that is going to stop me), because I challenged his lack of communication and what he has done for his clients. Simeon Rice even favorited my tweet that said he will probably find success "in spite of of him (Ed)."
He is continuing his downward spiral in treating people as if they are the reason for his failures rather than taking ownership of his own responsibilities.
I am concerned I will not see a return and that I will see a loss in this investment. I may have to just recover as much as I can from a loss in my taxes.
It is too bad because I truly thought Ed had the ability to do well for all of us. I am not angry or mad at Ed, my investments were my decision. I continue to learn and will do better research next time.
Sorry Ed, you betray me, I will not stand up for you.
SEGI
I'm guessing you're going to be there!
SEGI
Quite a few of this NFL champions friends will be there and I would expect they sell out the Empire!
SEGI
From what I can tell he (Simeon) is going to be at the Empire in NYC for the opening... Looks and sounds strong to me.
SEGI
With GR8 results that could grow quickly!
SEGI
Simeon told me 125 theaters.
SEGI
Hola! Mi amigo rico!
SEGI
Then give him an honest review on Facebook...
Why don't you give Ed a raving review on the SEGI Facebook?
Seems like you'd be all for it!
SEGI
Give SEGI FACEBOOK your review and motivate Ed...
SEGI
No, I do not see that. However, I am fed up with Ed's promises and failure to deliver. I am fed up with his inaction. So I posted my feelings on his Facebook for SEGI. Only 1 person had done that before and gave him a 5 stars rating. I think it must have been one of those hat had received stocks at a super discount (.0000015 type discount). I did a 1 star rating and it cut the experience in half.... IMHO, Ed needs to have many show their true feelings on Facebook...(He can't change that)...It might motivate him and he might see us as more than gamblers in the greater scheme of things.
I truly think he could do something with SEGI, if only he get off his high horse.
:-SEGI
Ed has the capabilities...
Unfortunately for those of us who put our money where our mouth is/was, because we truly see Ed as the real deal, our leader has gone into hibernation. I do believe Ed has good intentions and wants to see this company grow, succeed and prosper. Unfortunately, things don't seem to be going good right now.
My concern is they are a marketing company and that means their business is to make others people want what you have to sell. Ed seems to be having a difficult time with that concept at the moment, because if people don't trust you, don't like you, they surely are not going to want what you have.
IMAGE!
Ed has "sullied" his image at this stage in many, many ways. One and a half years ago when I first found SEGI, he seemed to be doing really well building the image and building trust and making good moves. He was moving in the "right" direction. He was building rapport. Then I think he was blindsided by the Canadian CTO and the need for the audit and the struggles he has had to face from this occurrence.
He was attacked mercilessly, he reacted and the downward spiral began...a movement that is difficult to stop, let alone turn around.
Ed has a monumental task ahead of him if he is going to be proud of this company ever again. I believe he can do it because he has built it up before. Every time some one stands up from the ashes of failure, disappointment and disgrace, they are stronger and do more than before.
The key is to not give up!
If Ed gets his head on straight and remembers the key to his success is the image people have of him as well as of the company and he takes the proper steps to repair that image, he and we will be back in business.
I sure hope his sister is giving him a one two three talking to; she is in the image building business herself. It is one of the reasons I put my money behind SEGI. They are a family, in the business. They, as a group, understand.
SEGI
The sad thing is, I would buy 100,000,000 Mil at .0001 if I could get someone to sell them to me...except now I am having a difficult time believing Ed. I am afraid he may be having a difficult time.
I told him about a book I truly appreciate: Leadership and Self Deception If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend it. Let me know what you think.
SEGI
Also found this portion of the Twitter "user's agreement" interesting:
Anyone remember the link to the .gov site that said tweets are as legally binding as PRs, etc.?
I found this one from the FTC to be interesting as well:
Advertising FAQ's: A Guide for Small Business
Though Ed is not "advertising" in his tweets, he is creating an image of SEGI. The question now seems to be, is it an honest image? Or is he misleading?
I sure hope Ed starts delivering soon!
I hope his family is recognizing the effects that Ed's activities/inaction may have on their reputation/image as well. Especially when they are also a part of the company and when they have endorsed him. Maybe they can influence him to communicate and take responsibility.
Did I say, I hope Ed starts delivering soon?
SEGI
SEGI still gets something for the part they played at the "rollout" in Arizona and some other efforts. If the agreement is based on percentage of success...it could make a big difference.
SEGI
Notice the one of movie chains showing Unsullied shows Sycamore Entertainment as Distributor...That is current!
SEGI
Like my Mexican American friend who does not capitulate...I don't give up!
I am long and strong and there will be many who are sorry they did not hold on to their stock they had...
MHO, SEGI has more to come!
