Curious if people have other software open when experiencing the "Mouse-Over Fail" bug?

When i have VLC player open (watching a movie or something) mouse-over never works but when no other programs open its fine.

The Rebuy button in Tournaments always appears when the starting tables open up for the first time now, without me having to close the table and re-open it. Thanks for fixing that Party in the latest release.

But, could you fix the problem with the Rebuy Button, when I am in a hand and go beneath the 3,000 chip level but someone else has lost all their chips, I only have a 2 second window of opportunity to rebuy 3,000 chips. This is the time between the guy who has 0 chips rebuying and the start of the next hand deal or the time between the 30 seconds rebuy countdown timer expiring and the start of the next hand deal. It will not let me rebuy normally during this 30 second period even tho I'm beneath 3,000 chips, I have to watch carefully and ensure I hit that 2 second window of opportunity or I have to wait until the end of the next hand.

Also, I'm fed up of everyone using 30 seconds to deciding whether to rebuy in the Speed rebuys. 90% of the time if someone is not gonna rebuy, they just let the 30 seconds elapse instead of just leaving. With all the people doing this, it reduces so much of the game time especially in a speed rebuy. Do we really need 30 seconds to decide? Normally, we already know in our own minds, whether we're gonna rebuy or not, can't we make the 'Time to rebuy countdown timer' 15 seconds instead of 30 seconds? Anybody else feel like this or am I being super picky?

I just checked out the party software incase I will move my play there in the future.
But I cannot find the blind structure or payout structure?!?
When I lick lobby the lobby where you register to SNG:s open.

Is the payout and blind structure really not available in the client?!
or did I miss it?

  • Some tables disconnecting while others are ok
  • Mouse-over country locaiton not always working

So in this example I would probably give 7 votes to the waitlist bug and 3 to the sitting out issue. This would then create a dynamic list ranking waitlist bug at the top and sitting out second; until someone else comes along and says "naaa fk the bumhunters all 10 of my votes go to the sitting out issue" and bumps that to the top.

This triage system would give party a very clear idea of the most pressing issues the grinders on their site want fixed, and hopefully next time it wont take half a year to fix the most urgent requests.
Yeah, disconnections in general are the biggest annoyance (but, fingers crossed, things seem better than they were a couple of months ago).

The hand by hand bug in MTTs is a personal bugbear but Party Rep says they're looking into it. I assume at some point in the past that's true of all these bugs, though, so let's add HBH to the list. All they need to do is sort out the logic underlying their code.

+1 to all of this

If the missing Rebuy button has been permanently fixed then that's definite progress.

Second point - yeah, I agree.

Third one: I always assumed the time was an attempt to give people time to use the cashier (although I'm not quite sure that would be feasible). If so, then why not only invoke the full 30 secs if they click Cashier (or whatever else is the reason); if not then I don't see why anyone needs 30 secs either. Perhaps 15-20. Shorter would I suppose increase the risk of people snap-rebuying on tilt and I can imagine Party saying it doesn't want to be seen to be forcing people to make a quick decision.

Lastly, is the 30 secs the same in speed/turbo tournaments, too? I think it is. That just seems weird: the consequent effect on the table compared to others is disproportionate when hands are played so quickly.

Beware of this bit though:
Quote:
Wait until the following day for new targets:
Don't forget, you cannot meet the points requirement for multiple targets in a single day. The start time of a new target will always be 00:00 ET the following day
I was gonna go for "Prize Level 5" and thought it wouldn't be too hard to achieve, but after reading that bit I think it might be best to just go for "Prize Level 4" and also take off the first 10-11 days of March (ie: while all the rakeback pros go bananas trying to hit their targets)?

I think this would be the optimal way to achieve prize level 5. Target 1 is spread over first 3 days, hence the bold group. Target 2 spread over next 3 days, and so on, eventually targets can be hit in 2 then 1 days. Biggest points/day requirement is 450. All 20 targets hit, spread over all 31 days of the month, all $750 dollars in prizes won, a little over 10% extra rakeback. Could also reduce amounts a little and not meet all targets but still exceed the value of prize level 4.

Nice, but where did you find out that the first target is 800 points, etc? I looked but couldn't see anything on this on the page?

Juk

EDIT1: Oh LOL, I never saw the "Click here for full details" button

EDIT2: I think your plan could work out, but the only problem is that the games at the start of the month are going to be so painfully reg-filled, with other regs knowing they have to do something similar, that it may negate the extra 20% rakeback you'll get...

oops, row 9 should be '200' in first post.

this one should be a bit more achievable, worth $330 in prizes at level 5:



luckily i play 50FL and am the only good reg should keep the fish at the tables for longer too

Yes, PartyPoker should fix this long-standing rebuy bug so that you can rebuy ANYTIME you have 3,000 chips or less, including if you bust in the last hand of the rebuy period.

Multi-tabling regs like me need all 30 seconds, unless PartyPoker fixes the auto-rebuy bug so that you can rebuy AUTOMATICALLY anytime you have 3000 chips or less without any further action or a sound warning is added. Multi-tablers lose so much EV in PartyPoker rebuy tournaments because of not being able to rebuy or add-on before the silent deadline.

Is there any reason why so many SNG regs are calling themselves variations of "FFishFlavor"?

Perhaps it's a running joke somewhere, but the monthly leader-board currently has: "FFishFlavor", "FFishFlavorX", "FFishFIavor", "FFishFlavorr", etc

There were isolated issues with opt-ins earlier this morning but these should now all be resolved.

Any play from before opt-in should have been credited in the subsequent update.

If anyone is still experiencing issues then please let me know.

Thanks

Thanks for the info about structure. I wanted to know that also.

But the real question was:
Quote:

So I assume it is not available in the client (like on every other site/network)? Correct?
