bunch of suggestions. i hoped 5.0 would fix but it seems like that is not the case.
1) the time bank:
a) not being able to use the timebank if you are not facing a bet is really bothering and problematic while multi tabling. on the major sites you can obviously use it whenever you want. (if you are first to act or the action was checked to you you can't use the timebank even if you have time in it).
b) timebank starting from zero on cash games. should be at least 15 seconds like on the major sites.
2) no option for self exclusion from playing a set period. standard feature.
3) option to stand up from the table so you can choose another seat. ftp has this.
4) support mouse wheel bet increases. standard on major sites.
5) better filters for cash games. for example if i play 50NL and 100NL i will be seeing in the lobby 4NL/10NL/25NL/200NL/400NL & 600NL as well. standard on major sites.
6) guaranteed tournaments -
the expected value, the overlay, of the guaranteed MTT's are getting worse and worse on rpm. it used to be that almost every tournament had an overlay but nowadays almost none have.
it started with the very long late registration that in some tournaments has doubled the amount of signups. nowadays it continues with changing some of the last remaining tournaments with an overlay from a freezeout to a rebuy/addon tournament (05:30 $1k Gtd. tournament for example).
this is making the MTT's on rpm much less attractive and me and others are considering moving on.
suggestions:
1) shorten the late registration time.
2) make more of the guarantees bigger (i know some of the big ones did grow).
3) cancel the last move from freezeout to rebuy on some of the tournaments.
Djo,
Almost everything you've suggested are things we've suggested as well.
As far as the overlays go, be patient. As the tournament scene grows, so will the guarantees. To be fair (and candid), tournaments still have overlays, but if tournaments continue having overlays month after month, the network won't increase the prize pool, they'll decrease it.
As tournaments see increased entrants (and continue to see an increased number of players) the guarantees will grow in due course.
Best,
RPM Seth
