yuuuuup

two more entries please

Scottyy,

Can you explain this formula in English?

Leaderboard Formula:ROUND(10*(SQRT([# Players])/SQRT([Finish position]))*(1+LOG([Buy in Amount]+0.25)),1)

Also, please tell me the breaks are synched

Edit:
And they aren't.

Scottyy, I've been one of your biggest supporters, but this oversight is ridiculous. It really doesn't get more simple than this. On any other site I wouldn't have even thought to ask the question. Can you try to not shoot yourselves in the foot every time you do something?

Looks like it's the PokerStars TLB formula.

Its laughable that breaks aren't synced. We're almost 8 months into regulated online poker and they can't even fix this. They should be ashamed of themselves at UP for not fixing this. And for not having a wait list button.

For Triple Play is there any way to see your current status?

I think I have 1+ cycle completed but it would be nice to see that somewhere. I am just keeping track on paper, but ring game hands is just a total guess. I would love to see something with how many of each item I have completed as well as what total share I currently have.

Props to UP for the Triple Play, cool promo and it actually got some SnGs running finally!

A leaderboard for the triple play would be very cool as well. Not saying to add a cash prize on top of the current promo but rather just to see how you are doing in relation to everyone else.

Also getting people in those $1 MTT's! (I can't believe I am grinding those, but that is where most of the MTT scores will come.)

Unless I'm not seeing the Omaha/Omaha8 Triple Play tables, it looks like they are getting left out again. Geez spool Triple Play for ever format.

Hard to win this the triple up promo when theres no SNGs running for it. No one is even registered.

They go off in the evenings pretty regularly. Not enough people online during the day prob.

This would be cool. Or even just a global share count on the webpage.

But I think showing a leaderboard would be nice. Perhaps a table like this:

Name: completed shares: mtt wins: sng wins: cash hands:
Mr exampleman......4........... 4............. 5 ............. 623
luckboxer ...........3 ............ 18........... 3.............. 306
mr oblivious .........0............. 4............ 6...............0



Would serve the dual purpose of letting people know how many shares are in action so far and letting them know what they need to play to finish shares without them having to email in asking.

I think that would definitely encourage more action overall.

Maybe toss in a spare watch for the overall share leader and some ufc tickets for the top 5 or something to really get it going.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


Just logged on 3 minutes after event number 9 was supposed to start to see it canceled.

Sucks. We had 8 runners. Just needed one more and tourney probably would have doubled in size in the next half hour. I was trying to recruit from the sng tables but no one signed up in the last two min.

God damnit, this makes me feel like crap. I was like 2-3 minutes late getting on or it would have run. GRRRRRRRR.

Woops. Didn't mean to make you feel worse. Haha. It would have been a nice overlay, but there will be more opportunities. I was surprised it didn't run because all of the other Big 10 tournaments had 40ish players. What did this one in? A combination of unexpectedly nice weather, people figuring they could late reg and Omaha still being less popular than NLHE?

Triple Play Update:

Current Nevada Share Value: $74.63
Current NJ Share Value: $208.33

I've been playing some of the $7.77 SnGs, but I see on the site that the promo has expired. Any plans on reintroducing the freeroll? Also, any plans to offer a wider variety of sng's?

Thanks!

Yes, we would like to have another $7.77 promo in the future. What would you like to see?

Anything that would generate some buzz, such as an sng points race or whatever. You could award prizes in MTT tickets to avoid that it's going to bolster the MTT fields a bit.

Perhaps a play 77 cash hands +7 SNG's in a week and get entry into a weekly $777 free roll.

Why are the NJ shares so high? Seems like NJ get's all the good stuff.
