Hey guys come on, lets be honest here ACR is by far the best site we have to play on here in the U.S.A.. sure there r some issues, which they have stated they are working on. But a version of rush poler has been begged for, for some time now. Now they are going to let us have it. Lets be grateful. The site gets better every update they make so its just a matter of time until these problems get fixed

They don't have enough players for it to be successful yet and the site doesn't even work for basic things like playing a poker tournament. Wasting any time on a niche game choice like this is a complete waste of time and frankly, insulting to the customers they currently have. The site doesn't get better every update, they've had the same problems since 2012.

Lol he was asked a question if he had any plans for a zoom/rush type

He said it was being talked about but would not come until next year or down road
05-04-2016 , 07:47 PM
Pretty sure he said today its in the works and will be released this year

From Zefa's list, I like Storm Poker and Flash Poker in particular, also Express Poker. Also, Insta Poker/Instant Poker (stack your opponents instantly!), Über Poker, Overdrive Poker (send your poker into overdrive!).

I understood that it was in the works, and definitely possible for release within this year.

Also, mobile app within 2 months.

But Running It Twice was "too hard" or a development challenge right now >_>

I'm not so sure that associating the game with Nazi's would be such a great idea.

Hopefully fast fold poker won't be implemented until the player pool is significantly larger. With a large player pool, fast fold poker can benefit the site. With a small player pool, fast fold poker can damage the site.

I think upgrades need to be made in order to significantly grow the network.

A form of speed chess is called blitz chess and nobody says it's associated with Nazis.

Definition of blitz: "a sudden, energetic, and concerted effort, typically on a specific task."

The word comes from the German term blitzkrieg, literally meaning lightning-war, which was a tactic used by the Nazis during WW2. However, the term has since become mostly disassociated from it's original meaning, thus making it IMO appropriate for use in this context.

"Mostly disassociated", you say. Certainly not completely disassociated. It does have an association in the minds of many, some countries more than others. I'm not so sure that it's in WPN's best interest to go there.

Often times businesses who use the word blitz also use Nazi-like symbols like lightning bolts (which symbolized the SS) in their advertising. It might be too tempting for WPN to go down that road in their advertising. Why, after all, would blitz be used for fast fold poker if not for that word's association with blitzkrieg? What image do you think it conjures up?

There's nothing hyperbolic about what I'm saying. And I'm not the one who brought up the word blitz. Do you really think that most people, especially in Europe associate 'blitz' with chess? I'm just being very realistic. WPN doesn't need to alienate any part of its player base.

this needs to be done... they should make every game zoom and see how it works
