I did the high priority, still had 1 problem with not getting rebought next hand.

But now I need to find a solution to the right click themes. Right click us part of my betpot script, and constantly popping up the lobby/themes is annoying as ****.

EDIT: missed the button, sweeeet.

Wasn't sure whether this should be posted here or there, but I posted this in sne pursuit and guess I'll post it here:

This question came up in another thread and hopefully Scotty/someone else official can respond to this.

In another thread it was mentioned that in February or March Stars will be introducing fractional fpps (and I assume that means vpps).

Obviously people are concerned with how this will impact the vpp/hand rate at the level they play. Will there at least be the structure announced in January so players can estimate accordingly if that changes? It'd be pretty bad to have a bunch of people chasing sne next year and find out that in February or March their vpp/hand rate dropped so much that now they need an extra million hands or so in the year. Obviously I would love if you just kept it the same yet awarded fractional vpps (ie first would still be at 40c rake but 20c rake pot gives 0.5 vpps, etc.) but I'm realistic enough to know that's probably not how it will work. Will we get what the plan will be in January or will the players just be left in the dark as to how the vpp points will be awarded in 2-3 months down the road?

you can right click on a program in task manager and set the priority level. it won't save it though, so it will run on normal the next time the same program starts. i use "the opener" ahk to open my poker stuff, and it has priority settings that you can change for all the stuff that you add. i assume its the same thing. its a freeware script you can find in the software forum by name or on irish thug's page (if i remember right)

When I need to force Stars closed using control-alt-delete or I lose my connection, when I return auto-rebuy no longer works on tables already open. I can see why it might not work if I had it set to rebuy to my initial buyin or something but I have it set to rebuy me to 20BBs anytime I drop below 100BBs. Since there is no buyin amount to remember I don't see why this shouldn't work.

This is correct, although I'm not sure how it made it's way on to 2+2 already. I don't think there will be any major changes to the FPP structure except that it will be possible for us to award, for example, half an FPP. This could mean that micro-stakes ring game players find it easier to earn points in ring games (on the flip side of the coin, it will mean we no longer round up in tournaments).

The major impetus behind the change is Euro currency tournaments which have already been announced as part of our plans for 2009. The current system was fine for USD only, but not granular enough when multiple currencies are on offer.

Does this mean that 'fractional fpps' won't be available in small stakes games? (In other words, is this just for micro-stakes)

Please change the structure in small stakes stud variants. The ante is way too small and the bring-in too large.

Isnt fractional FPPs a 100% good thing?

I guess if the requirements to earn 1 VPP change (since you can earn .5 VPP easier) then it could be worse.

Stop the tables from beeping over and over if they already beeped once for my action and when Im playing I stack tables so the fact that when a table sits out on the fast tables and then pops to the top is annoying and has no place imo. Also can we get one kind of table in terms of how they post blinds and a central way to post blinds and stop posting blinds as well as auto wait for bb to post. Maybe all blind posting just like the fast tables with a button in the lobby or something to sit out next BB.

Um. Does this mean 0.5 vpps awarded for a $4 pot in small stakes NL? Really really hoping you won't be making it 0.5 vpps awarded for every $10 in pot as that would be rotten for non ballers with no positive trade off.

If you are thinking of the 0.5 per $10 thing, then maybe leave games/stakes that will be screwed alone with no changes. ty
