This is with the product team and a resolution is in place
As for an ETA I have no timeline to share I will follow up and share should I receive further information

Thanks

The Title Fight 200k$ GTD looks much more sexy than Heavyweight: The Titl......


Edit:
Stuff even called Middleweight:Multip in my lobby.
215$ Phase - 100k GTD or something seems much better
+1

This would be a major improvement of current lobby. Do it pls :-)

I think the font was already a massive improvement for lobby and tables. Major focus is now on software, then hopefully we can roll out some changes for schedule soon after. I know it sometimes seems frustrating, but I can assure you party is not standing still right now, and hopefully soon you will be able to see the result of it.

Can you also consider to put a buy-in info to first place on top left corner? When multitabling its often hard to recognize in which tourney we are doing action.
07-28-2017 , 06:23 PM
I agree naming of mtts needs to be different

I have again followed this up with the team and they are hoping to be able to provide a solution by the end of this month however no guarantees

Quarter final phases ruin daily with a $2.20 buy in and 5k starting stack
You play 18 levels then take your stack to the next step - the semi finals

The semi- final phase runs daily with a $22 direct buy in - 50K starting stack or via the quarter final
Play lasts for 18 levels and you then carry your stack to the final phase on Sundays to play for 10 x $1500 packages GTD
Direct buy in for the final phase is $215 (500K starting stack)
Should you win a package you have a $1100 LIVE entry for the main event and $400 cash towards expenses
No chips are carried forward - your entry is secured for the main

Only the high rollers are marked as 2-day in this table, I hope this is a mistake ? You said you'd make Sunday majors 2-day events.
07-31-2017 , 10:58 AM
Please make more of them two-day events. Please, please, please.

In an upcoming patch there will be no more "AUD" as standard for skrill withdrawals. This was innocently implemented but something that definitely needed to change. It will either be USD or choose your preferred method as the options for withdrawing via skrill.

Re: powerfest/day 2s check my Twitter poll (plenopads) and feel free to give your thoughts there. We will be making some kind of change for sure.

Any chance you can look at the leaderboard issue at some point pads? Bit late to change the format now obviously, but the thing has been managed atrociously. Certain tournaments award double-points because of the time they run at, while the medium and low leaderboards were a ludicrous 24/7, week-long marathon that hugely rewarded account sharing.

edit: Should mention that Colette did pass on our concerns and was as competent and on top of things as ever
07-31-2017 , 03:14 PM
8,8$ Title Fight Semi Final (phase) sats are filtered as high buy-in tournaments.
07-31-2017 , 08:14 PM
would a "guarantee" tab be possible in the lobby?

The current leaderboards end on the 14th and are currently being reviewed and changes considered before a possible re run I believe

It has been raised It is due to the target event for these phased sats being a high buy in on the Sunday - its under discussion and a fix hopefully implemented soon

Sure, but 44$ ifinal sats aren't in High buy-in category. And it'll make high buy-ins crowded if you start to add some 8,8$ phase sats and 22$ phase sats (there's also some live sats to Canada which are most certainly not interesting to anyone living in Europe).

If you plan to add these to high buy-in category please allow us to choose from categories (in other words, uncheck "satellites" or "live events"). Currently we can only choose "all" or one of many other categories.

About the LB, I hope those continue as daily. Low and mid are outright unplayable if you want to finish at the top, and high LB is very heavy with buy-ins and long to play. It's really pain in the ass trying to timetable whole weeks for it and I don't see myself or any recs playing weekly LBs with current schedule. While daily format wasn't perfect, it was galaxies better than this current one (would probably play midstakes LB 2-3 times a week if it would be daily and highstakes weekly).

Maybe some changes for sure, like adjusting points system so that you can have some 8-hours LBs (similar to weekend Sit&Go Quickfire) etc. MTT Quickfire format would resolve problem with low/midstakes that since there's tournaments launching every 30 minutes you wouldn't have to play for 24+ / 168+ hours to really combat for top spot. You could also have somewhat changing LB formats, like in 3 week cycles you got different format each week. You could also make it so that cycles have low stakes LB using format 1, mid stakes using format 2 and high stakes using format 3. May it be MTT quickfire (ofc. high stakes would only need two ones), daily and weekly.

I guess I'll be playing mostly on other sites for coming two weeks, but I'll hope to return to Party later. Also certainly checking what you got to offer for new Powerfest, although I am somewhat skeptical that it'll be about as vanilla as last one.

I'm considering making the switch to partypoker and I was curious about the cashback:

If you get over 2k points in a week, do you still get cashback or is it capped?

you will still get cashback. 80$ for every 200 points step.

Oh that's good to hear. If leaderboards run all the way to powerfest I can definitely see party winning over a lot of regs.
08-01-2017 , 11:29 PM
Would party poker address the fact that they give certain stables free entries to tournaments that overlay on a 50/50 profit split? I'm not suggesting any wrongdoing, but doesn't this cross some kind of lines which shouldn't be crossed?
08-02-2017 , 05:00 AM
Don't see why you can't have a best 5 results based on a points system for a separate leaderboard. Only 5 mtts gives almost everyone a chance to win.
