Just looking for follow up.

On 5/4 the WPN CEO went on twitch to stream. He wanted to be as open as possible about the developments that were ongoing with software updates. He noted that he expected some of these changes to come within 6 weeks. well, Tomorrow 6/22, it will officially be 7 weeks and I haven't heard a peep about any of the following.

- Avatars (which was supposed to be possible coming before the 6 weeks)

-Mobile Client (said it was roughly 6 weeks away)

-Sit N Go 2.0 (Didn't expect it to be up yet, but maybe some more advertising to get SNG players excited. I haven't played a SNG on the site since DONS left.)

-More Stats in Tourny Lobby

-Rush Poker

-Progressive Knockouts (Although this seemed like it was a far ways away)

-He did also note that YES Cards at Showdown will happen, but its been almost 2.5 years since the petition started and nothing, so I don't expect that to be a thing.

Any updates on any of this would be greatly appreciated.

Figuring out the bot issue would be a priority if I was them.

Obviously stoned out of his head when he made such statements. Even if not, his minions follow the example set by him and are stoned when they arrive at work which is why things take so long and usually do not work as intended when they are finished.

Hey op, thanks a lot for this post.

I think the first 4 points will happen soon, some of them will be released before the others but i can comfortably say that they will be done within 90 days.

The last 3 points you made will also happen, but it will take longer due to certain development that we need to do.

Not really excited for any of these first 4

Feels like WPN will finally get all their wheels rolling around the same time Stars comes back to US lol
06-21-2016 , 07:30 PM
What is sng 2.0 supposed to be?
06-21-2016 , 11:54 PM
Pres say approximately 6 week.

That is 42 days. The new update approximately 47 days later is within 90 days? So approximately 3 times longer than expected, and these are just the first four points that are easier to get going?

Dam that was one hell of a mistaken time line originally. Whoever is coding for you guys has the sweetest job on earth. Work 1/3 slower than expected and still getting paid. I get 1 day behind on 1 weeks worth of work and there's all hell to pay. I choose the wrong profession.

Go back to older ones same old story. Talked about changes that never happened. I don't even listen anymore.

Agreed and can't wait. Hoping NY gets on board next year so I can watch wpn crash and burn. The market is just so easy to dominate and they just are so incompetent it's disturbing.

Yeah NY was so close this year and they ran out of time

Cali is very close, voting is taking place today and rumor is either a 5-yr waiting period for Stars to return, or a potential 20M buyout. Very excited to see if the clock starts running or the offer is finalized
06-25-2016 , 01:30 PM
When is the next stream?

I plan on bumping this roughly every 30 days until we hit the 90 day mark.
I know some have bigger fish to fry with Russians/botting, etc...but I would like ACR to be accountable for updates they are promising.

1/3 of the way to these updates being implemented.

im going to Canada in march due to giving up hope for USA poker sites. it was fun WPN it was fun

Now we are at the 2/3 mark of the 90 day "promise" made by the WPN rep. Per his words

"I think the first 4 points will happen soon, some of them will be released before the others but i can comfortably say that they will be done within 90 days."

A little concerning that there hasn't been a single one of these implemented yet, and we are past the 60 day mark. Hopefully they are just treating these updates like my semester projects and waiting until the last possible minute to get them done. Any updates on these WPN REP?
08-23-2016 , 09:57 AM
Guess you guys havent payed attention to when this site has said they are going to do something "soon" or within x amount of time in the past.
08-23-2016 , 10:41 AM
I'd like to see a FOLD AND SHOW option please.

Nothing pisses off an opponent more when you make a huge lay down. It's a similar effect to being bluffed. It can be very demoralizing to an opponent when they've patiently waited to give that cooler situation to someone and then realize they're not getting paid off when it finally comes. It can also induce your opponent to flip and show their cards in response. Giving you more information. It's a fundamentally important strategy feature that your site lacks.

This is an extremely important feature and frankly, I'm amazed people are requesting avatars before this....just WOW.

A week left on the 3 month ETA and not a single update has been done.

Here's to hoping for a big week next week.
09-13-2016 , 03:26 PM
The next stream could just be a rerun of this one, save some time

Wpn ceo word means nothing

Hes a liar but blows smoke up peoples ass like a champ

We are at roughly 110 days since this initial stream. WPN_REP/ WINNING_TD can we at least get some kind of update on this since we have already missed the 90 days?
10-21-2016 , 09:15 AM
Don't care how annoying this is I'm going to bump this until I get answers.

I honestly do not understand how you expect people to take the network seriously when public statements like this are made and they just fall by the waste side. time for some new leadership to come in and get things done and earn some credibility back.

Sorry for not making a thread about this and missing this one - Mr Nagy appeared on Thrash370's stream a month ago and told about the network's plans.

- Rush Poker is coming around January
- BOSS / MOSS to continue next year (sorry, I'm not interested in MTTs so I didn't try to memorize the plethora of info on them)
- SNG 2.0 is coming around PCPC as we already know
- no word on the other listed issues, iirc, but some other interesting things like a request for ideas for an SNG / Jackpot series akin to MTT ones

Alas those videos are unavailable now, as Twitch apparently deleted them after 14 days passed.

The July interview with the CEO is however still available as a highlight (too long; didn't watch).

1/4 isn't too bad considering WPN's track record of updates. What happened to making WPN the hardest place in the world for bots to exist?
