As I'm EXP already, will they simply give me another 8 VIPs if I buy the $10K card?

All that said, I don't think it's likely to work.
Cheers.

Many thanks as some of us are concerned.

Cheers.
Cheers.
You-know-who's contributions to this board are already sorely missed. I would gladly trade 100 other posters (whose contributions I can't characterize without disparaging them) for his return.

It is a natural human reaction to want to know, and I know of no reason for secrecy if we are not ashamed of our actions.
