With that said, Tarath, I thought I'd let you know I experienced the SNG over-registering issue again today. I asked it to fire up 10 tables and to keep 10 tables open for 45 minutes. It went ahead and loaded up 10 just fine. When I busted out of my first game however, it re-regged me for 2 more games, bringing the total up to 11. It did this once more during the set I believe. For some reason I didn't have the Tournament Closer enabled which I usually do, and I'm wondering if it might have gotten confused by the dead tables still being open in my stack. I have re-enabled Tournament CLoser and didn't re-experience the issue, but whether or not the 2 things are related I obviously do not know. Anyway, if you would like any more info from me, just ask.
Keep up the great work
Glad you like the program
I'll take TableNinja being your favorite poker program as an extremely high complement!
What we're finding with the SnG opener is that if Stars lags at all at just the wrong time, even Stars won't realize you've registered for the tournament (you may notice that even when you join tournaments by hand when tableninja is not even running, the register button in the lobby doesn't switch to "unregister" for a few seconds sometimes). Unfortunately, when this happens, Tableninja doesn't know that you've registered successfully either, so it tries another tournament.
In the advanced settings at the bottom of the SnG opener there is a "scroll wait" option. If you increase this, TableNinja will wait longer between registration attempts which should decrease the odds of this happening significantly. Fixing the problem completely (without making the SnG opener run very slowly) is a very tricky problem because if Stars is slow to realize you've registered sometimes obviously its very hard for us to figure out what stars doesn't know.
We do have an idea for a solution that will be in the next update but we cannot promise anything yet, the idea is untested. We plan to make some pretty substanial improvements to the SnG opener in the next update, including fixing the problem where the lobby occassionally stops updating, improving the counting, simplifying the interface, etc
So in the mean time try increasing your scroll wait and hopefully in the near future we will provide an update with a more permanent solution. We listed this feature as being "beta" because we knew there were bound to be a few unforseen difficulties with something new and as complex as the SnG opener, and just like with the rest of TableNinja we hope to quickly improve the SnG opener with all the feedback we're getting from you guys.
Thanks again for the great review of the program and for buying
Tarath
