Correct, the current score changes. Up for pots won, down for pots lost and number of points depending on how many people were dealt into the hand. Best score stays the same or escalates when you better that score in any given 500 hand block.

The way I understand it is all pots won in any qualifying hand until the Challenge 1 period is over. Your bonus points will be awarded after that and I think it said by March 13th.

Edit: Any bonus Full Tilt Points earned through the Promotion will be credited to player accounts after Sunday, March 13th and by Thursday, March 17th, 2011.

Not if it includes Happy Hour or Black Card points, they won't be multiplied

There is nothing in the rules about winning the pots for the multiplier to kick in.

Any hand that get to a flop is qualifying. No matter who wins it.

Those hands are also the same hands that normally gets ftps awarded. To all players that are dealt into the hand.

So your multiplier works for all qualifying hands which is all hands that gets ftps.

So the number of points that you can see in the FTP odometer widget (not including the bonus points) or on your iron man page is what will get multiplied. Not sure how it can be said much clearer.

so is it easier to get >500 at some point in full ring rather than 6max? stuck at around ~380 or something

if you're a tight player you pretty much have to alter your play style to get to 500.

No credit for FT for their usual poor wording on this - I'm just an idiot. The "500 hand run" is pretty clear; not sure how I missed it.

Is this anyone else's experience? I'd be happy if all I had to do was refresh. I checked my numbers about half way through a 45 minute playing session (4 tables 6max Rush), then checked a few more times. Even now, 30 minutes later, my numbers are unchanged, including my number of hands.

well my chart would change auto but I had to close down the page and reopen to see where on the chart i was

Don't know. It shouldn't. There is one credit per player/qualified hand sitting at the table whether it 9max or 6max. So you have to win more pots but there are less players to compete with.

Mines been autoupdating 4tabling 9max rush. Twice a minute or so. I think it kinda depends on how fast you are playing more qualifying hands. Didn't have mine open last session though since I stopped caring. Maybe there is/was a temporary bug. And for my fist session I was swearing for an hour that it didn't show any score. Took awhile to see that I had the wrong leaderboard open.

The only things changing though is the actual graph and the number for first and last hand. They should have a graph like this for black card.

Mine's updating automatically now. Certainly not every hand, but every few minutes.

it is going back and worth....sometime updating every minute or so...sometimes not for an hour.

Currently have 585 and sitting 450th for middle. I think it is pretty hard to play fairly tight and get numbers in the 1000s.

There will be an interesting question of if i drop out of the top 750 whether it would be worth it to go down to NL25 or something and play laggy for a couple hours to try and get back in and qualify for the freeroll. I would PROBABLY be a winner doing this but it is hard to say. Normally I am about 23/19

So..I did a typo, I didn't mean pots 'won" ...big deal. Clear now?

I'm playing Rush, so not sure if that makes a difference or not. Every hand I saw the flop, if I won/lost/mucked, it was updating under a minute. I'm sure it will flucuate with different servers, number of players and multiple hops.

Rush as well, but I was 4-tabling.

What you say, and others have said, has me wondering. Is it your belief that the hand only counts if you see a flop? I don't find the rules especially clear on that, unless I'm having more reading comprehension issues, which is certainly possible. I had been assuming that it was counting any hand that reached a flop, even if I folded PF.
