For scheduled tournaments, you're looking for me or my team. As for the notion of a 'TCOOP', we have no plans at this time for such a series. SCOOP & WCOOP are each unique, and not the sorts of events we'd want to dilute by having them too often... twice a year seems to be about right.

Having said that, we haven't yet come up with something particular for those who enjoy turbo more than anything else, that isn't quite at the level of a *COOP, but is special. We have the monthly Turbo Nights, but those don't really fit the bill. I'll be bringing this one up at our next Tournaments Team meeting and we'll see what we can come up with.

Turbo week with double guarantees on all tournaments, a turbo ten million on Sunday and a special turbo week leader board which offers more money or some other cool prize that would give casual players incentive to grind.

yeah, i think this would be better than another COOP, "double-guarantee turbo week" would be insane

This sounds like something I might be interested in.

SCOOP NLO8 events should be in this series. Structure is ridiculous.

ZOMG genius. This would be my favourite tournament ever!!!!!

Run $6/180man satties to it ($5.45+0.55) and top 9 get seats; to make sure it fills, satty winners can't unreg for T$, though multiple satty winners get T$109 obv. It would fill, and it would be awesome.

$100 is split evenly between first and second flights, earning the winner of each first flight a $9k seat at the second flight; if you keep the payout structure the same percentages as usual, winning the first flight would be worth $50*54 = $2200, plus a $50*180 = $9k entry into the second one.

Getting 19th in the second flight would be something like a $19k bubble Let's find out who's still got the sphericals to jam into the chip leader's BB

And winning the second flight would be just under half a million. Sick hourly for about four hours work.

Do it every Sunday imo.

Ok since Stars is clearly not going to do that and FTP already has too many series how about a push for it to be done at Carbon Poker for example? I'm guessing they would probably appreciate the millions in rake Stars don't want.
