I am an sne who relocated from the U.S. to another country, and it says when I check the vip status that I am supernova elite valid until february 29th, 2012. Does this mean that I have until february 29th to get my yearly million points for this year?, or do I have to still get all million of my points by the end of this year in order to achieve sne status for the remainder of 2012?

+1 I've never heard of tihs before and was wondering what they were talking about before.

I went one day without coffee the other day, but I'm back on the sauce.

Once you’ve made Supernova Elite, PokerStars will extend your status month-by-month from January through the last day of September provided you accrue a minimum of 50,000 VPPs each month, missing no more than one month of accrual. On October 1 each year, players who do not earn at least 1,000,000 VPPs earned will lose Supernova Elite VIP status.

HEY PEOPLE CHECK OUT MY BLOG AT WWW.GODLIKEROY.COM

that should do it
Most blogs are a serious let down (I'm just a cynical ass), the only reason I clicked on yours was to see if you really named it godlikeroy.com.

It was an excellent read.

Cheers

If it says feb 2012, that means you already have it this year

we all know that coffeine can have some really positive effects(no tiredness, more focus etc etc) but our body will get used to it so after a while of daily continued consumption the effects wear off and instead of getting positive effects when consuming caffeine we get negative effects when NOT consuming it.

A simple way to counter this problem is cycling caffeine off
you get all the positive effects when ON and no negative effects when OFF(like headaches or being jittery)

a pretty optimal ratio is 3/1 or 4/1 on/off but the "ON" phase cant be too long(3 months is too long) or your body gets used to it and you would have to go trough a bad "acclimatization" phase when "OFF"
this is the reason why you have such a hard time to go off now, your body is used to the coffeine so you feel like **** when not taking it

If you relocate in 2011:
-Your VPPs will be reinstated
-Your VIP status will be reinstated
-You can retain that status for 5.5 more months by earning the required number of VPPs each month (7,500 for Supernova, 50k for SNE).
-If you relocate mid month, either the VPP earning requirement will be waived for that month or you will be given proportional credit in monthly VPPs based on how far you are in to that month. The VPPs credited will not count toward your yearly total.
-1,000,000 VPPs must be earned by December 31st, 2011 to officially earn SNE rewards and status that is maintainable through the end of september the following year

If you relocate in 2012:
-Your VPPs will be reinstated
-Your VIP status will be reinstated
-You can retain that status for 5.5 more months by earning the required number of VPPs each month (7,500 for Supernova, 50k for SNE).
-If you relocate mid month, either the VPP earning requirement will be waived for that month or you will be given proportional credit in monthly VPPs based on how far you are in to that month. The VPPs credited will not count toward your yearly total.
-1,000,000 VPPs must be earned by December 31st, 2012 to officially earn SNE rewards and status that is maintainable through the end of september the following year. The VPPs that were 'reinstated' count toward this goal.
-You will not be eligible to purchase any milestone cash credits or VIP stellar rewards for levels that you purchased the same rewards for in 2011. No double-dipping.

Yes, this means that people can relocate in January 2012 and get a 'headstart' toward SNE status. In this case they will have missed out on 8 months of playing on PokerStars and it is doubtful that they will be 'better off' for having waited.
I hope this information has not been changed since I last checked a while ago. Just recently moved out of the country. Should I just wait until January to turn in all my documents if going for SNE?
11-18-2011 , 01:30 PM
As far as I know it has not changed. I'm waiting until the end of the year to relocate to take advantage of the 2012 head start.

It's the same scenario. At this point if you just want to start playing, email vipclub, quote this post, and we can apply the extra VPPs to next year. You won't be able to earn milestones this year though.

Steve,

Are you saying we can start playing during 2011 and still get our vpp total from April 15th reinstated in 2012?
11-19-2011 , 05:37 AM

now write an angry email to stars general support saying you know what their doing, that you both know you have to keep playing to get elite, but if you don't run like a normal human being all your play is going to Party next year, etc
