Nice summary from Amphenol on Stockhouse :
An update from Alphastox
Dear Alphastox Subscribers,
Make sure you keep an eye on Contagious Gaming (TSXV:CNS). The company continues to seek growth and increase value for its shareholders and is one of the few deals in the last six months that has consistently traded above its issue price of $0.40/share. CNS is heavily supported by some of Bay Streets finest and most knowledgeable investors in the gaming industry. With what the company has going on at the moment and their projected revenue stream, there is no reason in my mind whyCNS.V can’t follow in the footsteps of some its predecessors like Intertain (TSX:IT) and Amaya (TSX:AYA). CNS has been perfectly executing its business model by acquiring cash flowing businesses while still maintaining their huge upside potential with Goal Time. Remember one thing, Goal Time is being pushed and marketed by one of the largest publications houses in the UK: Trinity Mirror. Trinity believed in Contagious’ vision so much that they even invested directly in the company’s last private placement. We haven’t chatted about Goal Time over the last few months but I think the time has finally come for us to see the platform start to gain some traction. The potential for this is absolutely enormous. Not only is Trinity’s marketing machine ready to get going, but CNS is broadening their reach outside of the UK which should bring a whole new audience and user base to the table. Contagious recently announced a licensing agreement with Manyx to provide its proprietary Goal Time software platform to licensed gaming operators in Africa. We all know how big Soccer is in Africa and this is the fastest, easiest and most interactive way everyday fans can seamlessly bring a little excitement to their homes. If this thing takes off like I’m hoping it does, the company’s projected revenues could easily dwarf their current market cap.
Manyx is a high-end custom mobile value added service (VAS) & software development company. Not only will Contagious supply the Goal Time license but it will also provide live sports data and support services for the software platform which comes with licensing fees and royalty payments. This is the first B2B licensing deal outside the UK and sets the stage for additional partnerships in other jurisdictions down the road.
The company is continually looking to secure additional B2B partnerships for pari-mutuel sports betting. By continuing to expand its network, Contagious is organically growing the company to create even greater value for its shareholders; last month the company acquired Chelbis Company, a U.K. based online bingo provider.
Contagious (TSXV:CNS) offers investors the opportunity to play a small cap story with big upside potential and pending catalysts. CNS has the steady cash flow coming in from their other ventures as well as the hockey stick potential with Goal Time which could potentially be a company maker on its own merit. The time to be watching CNS is right now, especially as the company plans a heavy marketing campaign exposing their story to a broader investor base around the country. Each move this company makes has proven to be very accretive to its shareholders, so there is no telling where this stock can go form here. It’s definitely worth a second look around the $0.50-$0.60 range.
As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me anytime. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Etienne

Agreed! I have taken a small position of 9,000 shares. I wanted 10k initially, but other investments were at their bottom, so I will get there next week. I do aspire to be like Dimond & hold a bigger stake in this company! I will build my position to 50k slowly, as I do feel the potential upside is huge w/ this company.
I do agree though (as a non-gambler of sports) the website is a bit confusing & should be revamped to be more intuitive. With said, I am in the United States & with it illegal to do online betting, (at least poker) my view could be seen as narrow in regards to the website; just my opinion though. I would hope they could redo it so that If someone like myself were to place a bet that it would be much easier.
I am very excited about the software they are introducing to Georgia for the state lottery. The upside to that is huge, specially if it works. They could use that software & adapt it quickly for the other 49 states.
Of course all IMHO

Diamond,
Thanks for the tip. I'm from the frequent reader of TITXF board and post every now and again. I'm on the medical side so I did some DD on this company, but since I am less than lay when come to tech & software stuff I couldn't understand most of what I read. Does look exciting though as I feel everything becoming real time is the now & future.
So to make gaming real time as the sport is being played seems like a good bet to me. Plus, (eLottery) here in the states is really exciting to me & the type of revenue it will generate. Oh, and it doesn't hurt that I had couple very tech. & software savvy friends of mine look at it & they both liked the company, who they're partnered with, and the software & technology & "said" they will be taking a position.
I took a position of 7,000 shares today. I will be increasing my position to 10,000 total and see what happens. What I don't understand though is why the 7,000 shares I bought didn't show in the total of shares traded today. Anyone who can answer that, it would be appreciated. I trade threw Scottrade if that helps.
