The action at midstakes + on Party is almost dead right now.

However one possible explanation is that the recreational players on Party left. I mean bwin new software is better but I am yet to hear about one single person that would use new Party shinny **** and have not his/her eyes hurt no mather if you play one or more tables.
There also might be some problems with the browser cilent we are not aware of.

The thing is as a default you can pretty safely assume that if something strange happen on Party that cause the recreational players numbers to deteriorate it is some sort of a new "feature" where they try to decrease our winrates even more.
The default mode they opperate is "how can we **** the shameless regs more. They dare to take our recreational players money and we need to do something about it!!"

No, the rumours were one week ago and monday was the day it would have reflected (the market reacts quickly to those news).

Friday it was something else, who knows.

For those who multitable and have issues with the font size then you should stretch one of your tables to max size and once you close it the numbers on all tables will be in a bigger font. Finally a bug that works in our favor lol

What an incredible blowup by Party, Ive never seen a company screw up their site as badly as this and Ive been on bowl euro skins for years.

Glad they ignored everything important with the update and spent all their time making it look like facebook.

Auto add-on button for the rebuy tournaments please. Everyone keeps missing the addons, at least a better system for telling players its the add on period. A popup that its the add on period when every table has finished playing is no use when you're 16 tabling because 30 seconds later you've forgotten about it.

MTT lobbys are broke, player transfers are broke for some people and I cant resize the client/lobby window, but at least we can all get achievements when we are dealt a pair.....

the new software makes it harder to notice add-on periods too.

they've been promoting their big addons too lately. What's the point when 1 in 5 players missed the add-on.

Maybe if people dont add on, the tourneys are shorter, people play shorter too thus more luck = better for fish and they dont rake add ons at all anyway so why bother?

You can use the third-party programs to do auto add-on and then you can not miss it.
You can also increase the font to any size.

Doesn't look as if PP cares a lot about all the issues. I've mailed a friend of mine who works there and pointed him to this thread.

No reply which tells a lot.

they have bit some overlay in rebuys of late. so it's just costing them money at the minute to not have auto-addon on.

I could.

Or party could not have software that sucks, give it a lick of paint without fixing or improving anything and pretending it's the best thing ever.

Overlay and general prizepool. If the prizepools are smaller people stop playing the tournaments, field sizes drop, people stop playing there etc

I don't understand why people are still playing there. Don't let businesses take the piss , or they will all do it. Abandon that site.

Funny the emoticons files are animated gif (since feb) in the PartyGaming\PartyPoker\Images directory. But not in the clients chat.
They forgot it along with the auto add-on ect.

They should have hired LikeAA as a programmer imo.

because they get overlay in their rebuy tournaments - and a bigger prizepool is obviously better for a site. Doubt I've made a single addon since the update keep forgetting while multitabling it's really annoying

no, you have 0$ worth of point

buying a 33% rb bonus is pretty stupid since you get usually ~33% insta everywhere

so party stole your 3k

sorry

I lost quite a lot too

Kara Scott linked me to this thread on twitter when I was moaning about how bad it was, would be a good troll if she knew nobody actually checks it from Party

While I wouldn't say the "lose" is accurate, there's a point there.

I'm still amazed that Jeff or Party rep has responded on here in a such a long time. I'm starting to wonder if Jeff has actually departed from Party having realised he is flogging a dead horse and if he cares about his reputation who could blame him for leaving.

As for recreational players leaving over what some people say is due to their horrible skin. It could of all been avoided had they made available some screenshots during the early design stages to get feedback from you guys on how to make it more appealing. I realise that not all companies do this because they often employ people that are the best at what they do but it's clear that party have sub standard employee's which is fine but they should know their limitations and get all of your opinions to help them produce a product that is both visually appealing and fully functional.

The skin change can be done in a few minutes if Party wants.
