Also, what is the function of the 'Number in List' setting? I know from the video that it's supposed to be the approximate number of tournaments in the lobby but during a set it's going to vary from 1 to 30+ (and since the Pokerstars Lobby won't update anymore with sensei running we don't even know what the real number of tournaments in the lobby is anymore!!). So since this number is completely useless and can't be set to anything remotely accurate how does it change the software behavior? Is it better to have it abnormally large, small, or both (some intermediate number)?
Thanks for the feedback malloc, as you know I really value your opinion and all the help you've given us.
Its definitely better to have it too small. TableNinja will try to register in "Number is list' tournaments each cycle until it reaches its target number.
Also can you try sorting your lobby by enrolled so that the empty tournaments are at the top. This actually might help with what you are experiencing tremendously.
Let me know if that helps, we also have a few ideas to make things smarter in general in the next update.

PS I definitely don't test things 4 tabling, but I do generally test on my desktop which is very fast. I will start trying to do more performance tests on an older machine so I have a better feel for some of these issues. But I promise I test every single release with at least 20 tables.
EDIT: Also if there are 20 tournaments in the list that your are already registered for each time the timer fires, then you probably want to increase your seconds between cycles significantly. Shoot me an email if you want to talk about this more cause I would really like to see what kind of result we can get just by tweaking some settings.
