Please no. The less satties to the VIP-bash the better.

What are you talking about?

It's the opposite, the more sattelites the better. I'm not asking for sattelites to a 5000 point sattelite, I'm just asking if there will be any 5000 fpp buy in sats to the wcoop.

Is that so hard to understand.

Well almost all the regs who go to play like an Estrellas event are likely to play the high roller anyway imo. But my thinking is that any recreational player who has already won a seat to one of these main events, will be more inclined to play sats to the HR's simply because they'll be going to play the main event anyway. Its tough for these fields to get any more regy heavy anyway imo.

Bryan?

yeah cos it's not selfish at all to encourage Stars to keep lower-stakes players out of the juicy VIP overlay-fest

Calling names isn't necessary.

You think it's a mistake from Stars they they did have an overlay 9 out of last 14 times?

Keep it constructive guys.

On a positive note Stars followed my advice and incorporated all the regional tours worldwide for the Players Choice. An email to all players that have attended a PS Live event informing them of this change would help. After that there's no reason that one of these couldn't be run daily with different buy in/structures.

While we don't ever really intend to lose money, suffice it to say that we're less concerned about providing additional value in VIP satellites than we are in other, more "normal" satellites.

Id say the minimum entrants for sats across the board should be 4minimum, cus right now it makes no sense.
A sat like red dragon 4r x3 which is always gonna be less popular than a sm sat has minimum 4 entrants required, but then your most popular event sats which are sunday mill sats need minimum 9 entrants

Ones like 2.22r x2 keep being cancelled cus of this and a few others

Min entrants for sats should be on a tourney by tourney basis based on the likelihood of late reggers and the structure of the sat. With that in mind Stars should spend more time figuring out the ideal number per sat. This is not rocket science and is something I could figure out in 5 min with the data that you have and within 1 day from just looking at the lobby. Right now there are lots of mistakes.

Bryan any news on when wcoop sats will be deployed?

Will you be offering 'deep' sats as with scoop?

Also any plans to start offering more reg speed satalites for majors and 'red' tourns?

If you look at your sister site .fr they offer a good mix of reg speed/turbo/hyper sats all with 5/10 seat gtds to the sunday special/warm up/6 max. On a sunday you get tons of 10e buy sats which end up paying 50-100 seats.
Idk why these would not work well on .com

Wtf is going on?

You guys have been given so many great ideas and barely implemented any

GTD are being increased within the next weeks.
Weekly 500$ MTT goes from 200k GTD to 250k for example.

why are most fpp satelites newly changed to: "no-unregister-must-play-this-instance"?

they arent scheduled often and this has to hurt field size/whether they meet the minimum and even run?

some of those used to be decent means of redeeming rake back, im sure your cash grinders who were aware of this really love you for it.

thanks for expressing how you feel about your customers in ever more hatefull ways

thanks for making stars the #1 disappointment in the industry
