This thread isn't really for arguing about it IMO, we've done that. It's just a simple head count. I'm aware that 2+2 does not represent the entire online tournament player base but it's the best we can do. So what do you say ?

Faster structures because I'm rarely able to play two days in a row and I also suck postflop.

I'd like the structures to be slower.

i feel as if more 2day events discourage fish, and i have more of an edge with slower structures...so i'd prefer them to be how they are now.

I must say cos of my timezone i have had to not play a large amount of events cos they will get in the way of meetings and such 15 hours on, as well as stupid time for them.

I think the H events should have the same structures and mostly be 2-day events. The M events should be sped up, 15 minute levels IMO (other than those that are already 2-day events).

The weekend tournaments are fine, weekday ones should be sped up, at least for M and L. The way they are now they exclude most people who aren't full-time professional poker players. 2-day tournaments would also exclude most non-pros so that doesn't help.

this

and i don't really like the poll options. it really depends on the specific events. i though most events where fine, main problem were tuesdays that already start super late (2am for me), have a high buy-in that i can play and also take 20+ hours to finish.

i don't think it helps the tourneys if most of them become 2day events...

Every fish I talk to thinks online 2day tournies are like the coolest thing ever.

Trying to foresee every combination that people might want and putting it as a poll option would have made it too complicated. If anyone would prefer a mixed solution then by all means state it here, as a couple of people have, but I'd still encourage you to choose one in the poll.

They're perfect but 14+hrs not being 2-day events is ridiculous.

i'd agree w/ this but more NL events need to be 2day events. other than that i think everything (oh and the timebank but that's a software issue really) is fine.
