Im sorry and yes this isnt my place but i cant read the threads anymore and not have my input.

I dont want to go over so many points people have made but i do want to get this news out there.

We now have live tracking and reporting of what every player contributes to the beast and what you receive back from it. We have had it running for a few weeks now but need to be 100% sure and exact before we can release these figures. One thing i will say, i think everyone will be very surprised at the results you see. I dont want to get into too much detail because its still early in reporting and may not be a true reflection of what the actual final result is. I would say by December the 1st or so we can show post the results. December could be the biggest month for us and i have another announcement coming in the next few days which is going to make December a massive month for us and every player out there.

Keep checking back for my announcements ;-)

i've contributed $265.25 to the beast

i am getting much less than that back and that number is dropping regardless of whether i play more hands or no hands between now and the 15th

i think "surprised" is an incorrect adjective

I dont have the reporting in front of me. How long of a period is that contribution for?

As i said its not my place. But are you 100% sure this figure is correct? I dont know where you are currently sitting in the beast. But with what you would be awarded in cash and the $55 ticket does that figure not amount to more than your contribution?
10-12-2013 , 09:04 PM
100% sure, yes. no, the cash + ticket does not match my contribution nor come close to my contribution. don't want to out my name but i'll just say i'm in the top 70

If you would like to PM me your alias i will be very interested in checking the reporting we have.

I do want to say that this isnt an invitation for everyone to do this as i do have alot of things to do on the tourney side of things but def would love to see this case in particular.

This is great news.

Winning_TD, I'd like to PM my screenname to you if at all possible. I don't want to open the floodgates on you for everyone to PM your name, but I would very much like to crosscheck my figures. I'm currently mapping out my poker plans for the next 10 weeks and this information would be extremely useful to me.

No offense if you decline.
10-12-2013 , 09:25 PM
Ok i will allow yourself and one other (kinda guy i am). But as i said and feel i should state again. These are early days on the reporting so we also need to make sure they are 100% correct. But i am really interested and i have said a long time ago that the beast is only a good thing. Now i will see if i am going to eat my words ;-)
10-12-2013 , 09:29 PM
Can you tell us how the network calculates a players contribution?
10-12-2013 , 09:34 PM
Now your asking too much lol. I dont know is the honest answer.

From my own personal opinion its not easy to check every hand you have played or contributed in where the money for the beast has been. I could be being very naive right now. But when you fold your sb or bb and how many players are in the pot contributions vary!

I dont want to offend anyone if im talking absolute nonsense right now! But we are here to debate right :-)

I just realized I can't send PMs yet on the new twoplustwo since I only recently registered.

Is there an email address or another contact method?

I wanted to contact you as well, Mirage. I'd like to chat with you sometime. If you wouldn't mind, perhaps you can use my email at qtippoker.com, or hit me up via PM when you get the capabilities here.

Thanks.
10-12-2013 , 09:40 PM
let me think of the best way to do this. I do have an email address but i dont really want to post it i also have skype. Best thing maybe is you tell me your skype and i will add you?
10-12-2013 , 09:47 PM
Cool to see Winning_TD get involved in the conversation.

I will be following this thread closely. I have been avoiding depositing here because of what I've read about the beast, but I can be persuaded otherwise if I'm wrong.

I sent you an email at qtippoker. Hopefully the PM thing doesn't take too long to be enabled

It shouldn't be complicated. A simple formula of hands won with min. 4 seeing flop X .25 should work right? I don't wish to sound harsh but this shouldn't be that hard to do.
10-12-2013 , 10:31 PM
Great news and looking forward to seeing the results and very curious as to the other news in a few days.
10-12-2013 , 11:08 PM
Only the best promos need multiple threads to convince everyone that the promo is awesome.
10-13-2013 , 12:07 AM
I'm just thankful someone from WPN is acknowledging all of this stuff we've been talking about. It's making me feel slightly better about all this. Maybe they will listen to us?!
