In response to the above regarding tourney start times with the majority on the hour - the reasoning behind this is to ensure the players can easily understand the scheudle and have full awareness of when our main events kick off as we offer consistency with these games
You don't think highly of your clients if that's your reasoning when you're basically saying the players can't tell the time.

I have to admit that I myself don't think too highly of your team if that's the only excuse they can come up with regarding the starting hours.

Reason we would like to see variable starting times is to make the existing schedules less monotonous and to ease the possibility of enriching the program which will be a lot more profitable than paying a fortune offered overlay.

We do offer late registration on most events - so players can log in and play at all times - there is no need to reg from the start
Oh really

We will never opt to simply "copy" a competitors schedule
Obv I wasn't 100% serious suggesting to completely copy a schedule, but since Pokerstars got rid of many popular tournaments players are eagerly wanting to play again you have the oppurtunity revamp those beloved games.

We're all looking for an excuse to play less on Pokerstars, but Party Poker just doesnt seem to oblige this hunger.

agree with every word, is there such a lack of understanding that they can only come up with rubbish like that, there is no hope for any of us. Do they honestly believe that starting every game on the hour is truly the best way to go?

If a new player opened the client, they do not care in the slightest if tournaments start on the hour or not, they just want a good game to play. The most concerning thing here is that the management somehow don't get it? I'm not even sure what they are trying to achieve with this.

People are really now beginning to ask questions here and its doing much more harm than good. Colette please forward some of these posts onto the management.

You know i'm even thinking of creating my own thread or poll to see what people prefer, it's become that bad.

Wow, I didn't realize there was even such a feature. Seems quite contradictory having that and trying to ban scripts, no?

FWIW, it seems like the waiting list filter disappears as soon as you're seated, am I right? Unlike the Winamax-style system. So I doubt most of these insta-joiners create new waiting list filter every time...

Hate seeing this argument from the reps from all the sites. Your player #s increasing doesn't necessarily mean you're doing anything right at all. I play a lot more on party and other sites now because stars is destroying their schedule and I think your increasing players comes more from stars losing customers to you than you doing anything magical. You are doing a bit better job than the industry leader at the moment but that doesn't mean that you have no room for improvement.

Personally I wish that there were better offerings on a lot of sites, I have money to spend, but there aren't a lot of good places to spend it. 12 months ago I could find 15-20 tourneys a day to play and a whole lot more on the weekends. Now i'm getting in like 8-12 tourneys a day, while I am playing more on party now than I ever have, I want to play more and I don't care what site offers it, but if the economy as a whole can only offer me 8-12 tourneys per day (only 2-4 of which are actually exciting) I am much more likely to just stop playing altogether, and nobody gets my deposits.

will the title fight replace the main event or run alongside it?
10-22-2016 , 07:40 AM
Replace 5$ 6max turbos with 5$+R, or 5$+R / 11$ FO changing every 2 hours.

I play only weigh-in and uppercut on your site, and contender now and there if i don't forget about it. I would love to play more on your site since pokerstars schedule is almost dead nowadays, but it still has better buyin spreads/gimmicks and guarantees than you do. I'm completely puzzled as to how do u manage to slap 7.5k guarantee on counterpunch that is in the same slot as big 55 which had 50k gtd just yesterday. This should be your 1st or 2nd biggest tourney of the day right next to uppercut with at least 20k gtd for start. U've gotta fix your satellite system and do at least some deadline sats with a lot of tickets so people can play it cheaply.

I can handle the worse structure at the endgame compared to stars vlt reds, or 888 majors, but for god's sake there's just so many things u can do better and u don't even try. Why can't u put 12m/16m structure in everything like u mentioned u had in some other 2 tournies in earlier schedule. It seems superior to the current one u have right now in majors, the one that takes forever to cash and then plays like a turbo on stars.

There should be like a ton of rebuys since they died on stars, and 888 just has 55-r on saturday. 5-11-22-33-44-55-109 for example. They would grow magically since everyone is basically begging for them, but u have to give them decent guarantee and not lowball it. I'm not gonna play a single one if it doesn't have at least 10k gtd on it and im pretty sure i'm not the only one. As for the sunday 109r everyone would play it, if it had at least 100k gtd, since there is no other site offering it. Now it's just a regfest and the timeslot is pretty bad by itself, there is just much more interesting and softer stuff elsewhere on other sites.

As for the next powerfest, u should consider having at least 50% of your tournies being 2-days since they just take so long to get into the money i would rather skip them, because there is just nothing to fill your screen with at around midnight CET when u get into the money...

vg points, 10-15min levels would be fine too and +1 for 2day powerfest events

Heard about the nickname change, is this possible for Party Premium?
10-24-2016 , 10:30 AM
Just a note: MPN network has just made what iPoker did earlier and destroyed their MTT program. Party, please don't follow suit but instead upgrade your MTT offering so that people can find a new home now.
10-24-2016 , 10:41 AM
played both the 11 & 22 rebuy yesterday, but you really need to fix them. I rebought 5 times in the 22r, so was in for like 120$ and I only had 15bbs after the add-on that seems pretty flawed. I would really advise to reverse the blinds after the addon or fix it in a different way. Now they were not very enjoyable at all.

Also please, for the love god, add some 11$ & 33$ buy ins.

$5 6max turbos are nice. It would be better to add either $11 or $5+R.

Or Farseer Finland's suggestions seem solid.
I have played $1 flyweight rebuys. Gaming experience ATM is horrible because average stack is 13bb-14bb. It would be better to have 10 or 12 minute levels after add-on.

There seems to be a definite uptick in the number of players wanting to play omaha mtt's at the moment. Can we please get a couple new tournaments added in to the daily schedule? A couple of possible options that I think would perform well: A $5rebuy six max plo and a $22 plo8 re-entry in the early-mid part of the daily schedule.

Thanks!!
