Moved your post to this thread (MPN Online Tournament Feedback Thread)

Thats great tournament, but 65% of time, it is cancelled, because too few players in the start. But when it starts, there is decent action. My suggestion is, fix it to early bird PLO. I think it starts with 3k chips, but early bird players get extra 1500 chips or something.
Done! 1,500 extra starting chips if you register before it starts. Now called:

€250 Early Bird Omaha Rebuy

Lots of rebuy mtts are turbo rebuy with 6min levels. Lets take 5.5€ Mini King Tusk, 5k with 6min levels and 500-600€ gtd. Also, great tournament, but these higher gtd prizepools should have little bit more room for playing. My suggestion fix it to 8-10min levels. But i think it would be even better, if rebuy period is 6min and after rebuy 8-10min, or even mid-stage 8min and late-stage 10mins.
Unfortunately there is no way for us to do a multiple times blind increase. It all has to be the same.

There are plenty of non 6 minute €5.50 entries around these times:

€600 1R1A (8 Minute Blinds)
€1,250 Mini Mosh Pit
€300 The Mini Deep Fifty-Five
€300 Mini Terminator


The King Tusks are very popular, hence their guarantees going up recently, so we won't be changing them currently

Same story like king tusk. There is too much 6min turbos. Fix it to 8-10mins. I would prefer 10mins. Or maybe 9mins for the avg?
It has been overlaying a bit recently, so have changed this to 8 minute blinds. Everything else remains the same

Will have a think about it!

Another turbo. Id prefer 8-10min lvl. Maybe u should add similar Mini mtt for that one. 4.4€-5.5€ one with 8-10min levels.
0% we are changing the blinds on this currently. It is one of the most consistent tournaments we have. I could put in a mini, but it would have the exact same structure - the €5.50 €600 1R1A (8 Minute Blinds) starts 10 minutes after the TMI!

I won't be adding in more buy-in levels (€4.40 / €7.70 etc), but I can add in a full ring Booster or 2 around those times (non turbo ). I will look at it more tomorrow

€11 + €5.50 sounds good. I will add it in tomorrow

I can add this in tomorrow and see how it does, it might be a bit close to the €5.50 in buy-in though

Not possible to mix an MTT

Thanks for the feedback! As above, I will add in some more MTTs tomorrow once I have a proper look a the schedule

Huge -1 for such changes.

Especially MTTs starting later (after 11 pm CET) last far too long already for people who work or study (like I do) so usually skip all slower tournaments and would actually prefer turbos to have 6 min blinds changed to 5 mins. Would make me to play late evening turbos far more often, now I usually play more quick MTTs from other sites.

No need to have all MTTs last super long. And there's enough boosters / deepstacks around already. Although there's probably room for few more MTTs now that autumn kicks in, I would suggest adding some MTTs alongside UCOP to familiarize people to them.
08-28-2019 , 08:10 AM
+1 ^^^ Introduce some new MTTs alongside the old guard and remove any dead rubber

Trial some new games + perhaps along the same set up as ucops on a less gtd, see how they would do
08-28-2019 , 08:13 AM
Updates on first page please when u get time Peter

Id like to see more 5/10/20 rebuys 20-30-40 freezeouts - Boosters along the schedule of varying structures.

More PLO for sure! +111111
08-29-2019 , 11:16 PM
+1 for those changes!

I like the 11f boosters and more tourneys in the night!
08-30-2019 , 11:34 AM
Can someone enlighten me as to why ya'll are requesting boosters ? them and 1r1a make very little sense to me, both seem terrible for recs

You can easlily do 5 minutes during rebuy and 10 minutes after rebuy period, by just having double periods, like
25-50
50-100
100-200
end rebuy
150-300
150-300
200-400
200-400
300-600
300-600
etc

Update put in the 2nd post of this thread also:

Added:

€250 Mini Fantastic Four (Omaha) - €2.20R, same structure as the €5.50 €750 guaranteed tournament at the same time
€200 PLO Booster - €11/€5.50, daily @ 20:30 BST, 6 handed, 5,000 starting (and boost) stack, 10 minute levels
€300 Booster - €11/€5.50, daily @ 20:45 BST, 8 handed, 5,000 starting (and boost) stack, 10 minute levels

Updated:

€250 Early Bird Omaha Rebuy - €3.30R, you now get 1,500 additional starting chips if you register before it starts
€333 Nightly Threesome - €3.30R, daily @ 21:30 BST, changed from 6 minute levels to 8 minute levels

Other tournaments are doing very well, especially the bigger ones. If this continues into next week, then some guarantees will be increased

Very true and we do have some smaller buy-in "Burst"/"Bursting" tournament where the blinds repeat. It looks messy though and they are not that popular.

A 5 -> 10 minute, or 6 -> 12 minute jump seems a bit extreme in my opinion, what do others here think?

Agree, very bad idea such big jumps.
Repeating same levels, also dislike.
09-05-2019 , 01:12 PM
What do you think about these @MPN Peter?
1) Step satellites system?
2) Satellites on-demand?
09-06-2019 , 05:43 AM
A few tournaments that almost never run (times are in CET) that you can replace with something else:
11:10 2,20 75e Big ante rebuy
11:15 1,10 25e 6max freezout
11:45 3,30 75e turbo booster

In my opinion (after playing the last 1-2 months) in this time slot 11-12 CET we need more 3/5/11 normal freezeouts with decent gtd's.
Take for example the 11e Morning freeze 200gtd - runs pretty much every day and beats the gtd.
09-09-2019 , 07:40 AM
11rebuy 6pm 1K Grd 2500/2500/10K 8 min blinds

33 Freeze out 7pm 1K Gtd 7500 SS 8 min blinds

Hello, the 21:15 11f 250g should be a 15K Turbo Deepstack with 18 levels late reg!
There is no Turbo Deepstack and this can be the first one.

There was a DB issue right at the time of the add-on for the Lost Vegas, which prevented all players from being able to add-on as well as affecting logins to the poker clients

It was back up within a couple of minutes, but the add-on was missed by this time

It is currently being investigated by the appropriate team
09-17-2019 , 09:29 PM
i was effected by this also

Any update on letting the MTT only players be able to play sunday freerolls etc without playing cash hands. Ty
09-20-2019 , 11:18 AM
What a sad day Peter, thanks for all your work on the schedule etc, and for always being super helpful and I will be very sad when Micro dissolves
09-22-2019 , 03:23 AM
Sad news indeed.
09-30-2019 , 12:40 PM
Can you make the next blowout at end month Peter 20/25K SS

Would make a marquee tournament so so much better...

Thanks
10-03-2019 , 05:57 PM
Would prefer a few less blind levels in tournaments that have added levels late on.With 80-120 player fields i think they are running a bit too long.
