Hi

I'm a big fan of lock but have one major query/gripe. Before the whole VIP concept was even mentioned I built up over 10,000 lock points.

Now I've read on another lock thread that players can't convert these despite a previous email from support stating the opposite previously.

So, can I swap my points?
If not, can I swop those earnt before VIP was introduced and points exchange was shut down?

Hope you can help rizen. Please note I don't have PM ability that I know of

Thanks

Paul

You can buyin directly to tournaments with your VIP points at the exact same ratio as converting them.

Should be any cash MTT and some select SnGs. The points convert at .01/pt, so a $10+1 MTT would cost 1100 points, there should be a drop down when you click to enter and you can choose the points option.

I don't think all MTT's can be bought into with points, but most can. There are a few that even offer a better exchange. There is a list in the RPM forum. Someone may want to go there and copy into the Lock thread.

Also would be great if all SNG's and MTT's could be bought into with points since we are now unable to exchange for Cash. Cash/SNG players don't want to spend the time playing multiple MTT's to get value out of the points. I guess that would be what the store is for though.

uhh, just a couple hours ago I could buyin to certain (if not all) sng's and mtt's with VIP points and now it is only accepting tickets for those events. In anticipation of the store opening perhaps?

NVM: it may of just been the sng's I was looking at. It appears some still accept vip points.
