Neil, any chance of an auto rebuy check box in tournaments and auto add on check box as well? One thing I think would also be great is if we can rebuy prior to being dealt any cards in the tournament. Just would be nice cause it is better to get the extra chips rather than play and get maybe 20-40 chips in the first hand. Then you can't rebuy cause you are above the starting chips.

Ok, grunching the thread so sorry if any of the following have already been suggested.

But here are some issues I had following my first session:


-Is there an option for a favorite seat? If so I couldn't find it. By favorite seat I mean that you are positioned at the same seat at a table every time you join a game so that when multi-tabling you don't have to look around and find where you are on each table.
-It's really hard to tell who is involved in a hand with you sometimes.
-Bet slider is a huge pain. It's hard to use at all when multi-tabling.
-The bet dialogue box also is a pain. When i click it to enter a bet I have to make a concerted effort to highlight the bet amount. then when I do sometimes it'll become unhighlighted if I have another action on a different table and thus I have to retype and then endup timing out or misclicking.
-I misclicked the bet pot button about a million times.
-Also for some reason whenever I open a table or enter a bet I get that windows alert ding even though I have all sounds off on the client.
-Does the chat box pop out? I couldn't really read it because it's size gets reduced when multitabling. I need to read the chat some times to recall what the action was mid-hand (Alzheimers).


FYI I'm using the table mod linked itt. How do you get rid of the dealers? And any way to make the dealer button bigger?

Thanks!

No preferred seat option.
No way to open chat box as far I see.
I don't get the windows alert ding. Did you uncheck all sounds? as soon as you click options there are some other sound effects I think that you need to uncheck.

Check the everleaf mods post and ask there they might be able to help you. Not sure though.

Adding a rematch option for HUSNG's would be nice.

Just created an account with rakeback on minted. Was just wondering if I do deposit and wish to withdraw winnings, what is the average time checks have been taking? wires? and other forms by which american players can withdraw?

[FutureInsights]

I was able to pick my preferred seat. Only played 2 tables (its all they had), so don't know if you have to do it every time.

Yeah you can pick a seat but when you come back later it does not remember the seat. I have looked everywhere and there is no way to save where you want your seat. Every time I have to right click and move here. It can be annoying because when you get moved in a tournament, you have to do the same process. If you have a lot of tables going on it can be a pain.

I requested a withdraw by Western Union on May 20th. It hasn't been processed yet but I will let you know when it has. I am hoping that it is done tomorrow.

Thanks!

If you are wondering how to get rid of the Dealer you can follow the instructions below:

Duplicate one of the dealer pics (f.e \Graphics\Dealer\Set0\DealerOne1.cbm), rename it and copy it to the directories below(for Vista/Win 7). You will have to copy it and paste it 3 times and Rename it to match the file in each directory.

C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\MintedPoker\(onc e here follow the Directories below)

Graphics\MainGraphics\Set0\Table\CustomAvatarBorde r.cbm
\Graphics\MainGraphics\Set0\Table\CustomAvatarEmpt yBackground.cbm
\Graphics\MainGraphics\Set0\Table\CustomAvatarDefa ultBackground.cbm

Example: Take DealerOne1.cbm (Directory: \Graphics\Dealer\Set0\DealerOne1.cbm) rename it: CustomAvatarBorder.cbm and paste in the Directory Below:

\Graphics\MainGraphics\Set0\Table\CustomAvatarBord er.cbm

Make sure you use an empty dealer picture. It should be 0KB for confirmation.

You will get an error message about a broken picture file and redownloading when you start the Poker Client. Simply hit Ok and everything will work properly if you done everything right.

Again, the credit here mainly goes to VVolf69. He was the one that provided most of the information to me. He also helped me find a way around getting rid of the Avatar's(circles and all). I will provide those to anyone interested.

Not sure of a way to use a larger Dealer button currently. I do know that VVolf69 plans on releasing some new Everleaf mods in the near future and hopefully that will be included.

I bolded the items I continue to have issues with. Some of this you just get used to just by playing a while. But the bolded items in particular need improvement as after more than 10k hands I'm still annoyed by these things.

Hi Guys,

I would 1st like to thank you all for your suggestions on improving our software. Unfortunately we are not the same size of pokerstars so development times may be longer than you have been used to however all suggestions are noted and discussed.

I can re-confirm many of the suggestions put forward recently will be part of a brand new poker client due for release in the 3rd quarter of this year. This said; please continue to provide suggestions as without them we simply don't improve.

Regards
Neil

p.s. Synchronised breaks - not currently planned for development, sorry!

[TiltTheTilt]

Agree with most of what everyone is suggesting and want to add a few more things:

-Security Token. As Everleaf/Minted continue to grow a Security Token would make a lot of serious players feel a lot more comfortable with their funds on Minted Poker. This is something that could help you take advantage of the US market since no other US Poker Sites offer a Security Token right now.
-Sit out at all tables/Sit out next BB at all tables.
-I know you have a new Store/VIP Program coming soon, but I would love to see a few more options to use your points on. I know the points were originally just a way to track your bonus clearing but a way to use them to buy into SNG's or regular MTT tournaments would be great. Example: 100 points=$1 towards a tournament buy-in(just a number I'm throwing out. Obviously it would have to be financially viable for Minted to do and I'm not sure what that number may be.) Even if it was a special promotion you ran for a week or day every so often, it would generate some SNG/Tournament action that could lead to permanent action. It could also bring in some former players to use their points and when they see some of the other improvements you've made and realize they can use their points for direct buy-ins from time to time, they may make Minted their permanent home.

I'm sure I will have some more suggestions soon.

I also want to add I like that you've done a lot recently in Promotions to generate buzz for Minted Poker and all that you do to make Minted a Player friendly site. Keep up the good work.

If you start growing a tad more, can that get on there? Don't feel bad, I think Merge just GOT to synchronized breaks.

this. rsa token is best way to get grinders on the site and keep a decent amount of money there.

PS/FTP charged very little for their rsa tokens but i'd honestly pay like $300 for one if you guys were worried about the costs or something.

I understand you are small. Make the most out of the 2p2 community.

Work with people who make mods a little so that they can make mods for us.

Use us as a focus group to help prioritize the changes you can make.

Ask our advice on things, you will get a few really good bits of advice along with a whole lot of ummmm, less than good advice

Outside of the owners and employees of Minted, no one wants to see you grow more than us!
