Yes. Earning points is now slower. You can get 7 points for 1$ tournament fee and not 10 points. At CG tables its now dealt rake and not contributed. Its hard to calculate, but I got about 6 points / 1$ in June.

I have gone through all my transaction pages (bonus (only has one day, today), and non bonus). I guess this is progress: it now shows bonus code: , bonus amount: $0, bonus paid: $0, expires: days in the table on the bonus report.

The progress should be displaying in your admin now, if its not send me your email address so we can check it out for you.

Hey Shane,

I sent you an email regarding my carry on bonus from merge. I cannot see any bonus in my admin yet. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

this is pretty ridiculous. i switched to the vip program bc i could reach black level and so it made sense over rb. now they just change it so black level is much harder to attain. shane, why have they made it so much harder to earn vip points? seems like vip players r getting screwed

It is slightly harder to reach the levels now, but they also increased the cashback percentage when you do reach them.

However, the requirements still might need to be lowered more to make it closer to what it was.

ImJustShane,

RB isn't hitting my account. I emailed support 2 days ago and nothing. Please help. Sending you a PM.

I've got in nearly 13k hands at mostly 10NL 6-max and am just about to hit the first VIP level.

I do really like the hourly RB though that I'm currently setup on. It's better for me than VIP at this point.

thanks, did they put it straight into your vault?
06-18-2012 , 09:23 PM
How come my vault still isn't activated? - I'm past the required VIP points for the first level but it still says I don't qualify.
06-19-2012 , 04:08 AM
My vault just got activated today so maybe they are getting them all caught up.

The next question is for us VIP cash back players (NOT RB) as I understand it the daily cash back goes straight to the vault? I see a spot in the vault for points redemption but from reading the VIP page it seemed there was also an additional % daily cashback? Clarification anyone? Thanks for your time.

I shot you a PM on the 17th, still nothing in my bonus report though. Am I going to get my bonus retroactively (if and when it shows up)?

I've been receiving Ronin payments within the hour until a few days ago. I'm at 18200 VIP points but still haven't received the payment for the 16450 level. Is it possible that the prizes awarded has already been maxed out??
06-19-2012 , 05:41 PM
I received all of them up to that point also. I am guessing there is a delay, as I highly doubt there are 100 people with that many points this month.
06-19-2012 , 06:02 PM

This. I'm getting 2 points per dollar (HU). There's absolutely no way for a low stakes HU player to reach Black anymore, which is a shame because it was super easy at merge. 5k in rake per month to reach Black? Ridiculous. Heading straight back to a merge site if this **** isn't addressed.

That's pretty redic. considering as a FR player I only had to rake about 1k.

They really need to fix this along with a million other things

I'm at a lower tier (8050 now), but I had rec'd every payment including the 3850 (only 60 spots) and the 4900. I've drastically ramped up my volume and almost doubled my points total in the past couple days, so I find it extremely unlikely that I've been passed by enough people to lock me out of the next couple tiers but I'm still waiting on both payments now.

Hope Lock pays or gives some explanation, but I'm fine waiting a few days.

Cool, thanks for your reply. So it's impossible that someone we're not getting our ronin payment because our level is maxed out because from 6300-77k points all have 100 payouts and if your getting the paymets at 8k, then 16k should be getting paid out too. It's been 5 days since I've cleared the last level and still no payment btw.
06-21-2012 , 12:53 AM
ive been waiting on the 100 and 120 tier fwiw, and reached the 120 a few days ago and have seen no payment on it. I've emailed Emily and skyped Shane but have had no response from either about it.
06-21-2012 , 03:22 AM
so am i correct when i say that only x amount of people recieve some of the ronin bonuses? lets say one of the bonuses is 80 bucks and the first 100 ppl that reach this level get the bonus? is that right??? I'm not leveling just never been involved in any type of rake race (beat)
06-21-2012 , 03:28 AM
You are correct. If there are only 100 spots being paid at that level only 100 get paid. Just wish there was some kind of leaderboard to keep track of it. I think it would also push people to grind some more knowing where they are in the Ronin.
