Another Big Clash with the Clans
Chris once again lead us into the world of Clash of Clans. He wanted to show us what happens during an attack on an opponent. The opponent/victim is chosen completely at random. In this particular case Chris happened up a victim who had virtually no defenses and succeeded in totally wiping that person out and steal all the loot.

He still hasn’t spent any money and plays about a hour a day. The company that put out the game, which is free for the iPad, but takes advantage of in-app purchases, is hauling in nearly $2.4 M dollars/day. What’s in your wallet?
