I can't say I ever got particularly close.
If I remember correctly, it would fill up almost immediately after reg opened, so you had to be quick on the trigger just to play.
i remember this and how upset i got when i missed it and it filled up before i clicked it - would sometimes standby ready to take a slot if someone unregged and would sometimes get in that way
wouldn't matter that i'd be playing like 15 tables for actual money, i'd still reg every single freeroll and just put it in a different color scheme so if i had too many tables running would just do a fold/shove only strat to minimize time
remember when they switched from cash to tickets for the weekly freeroll, i had about 80 of those tickets in my balance and then when they wiped the astronomers freeroll series entirely they took them all away, i asked for compensation and they justifiably told in the most politest customer service speak possible to go ead
even when i wasn't playing for real money - would just have it on and play in the background while watching a movie or even doing work - literally played freerolls at work - only freerolls because would often miss entire orbits - but i got really good at being able to look at the table, make the quick decision and then go back to my spreadsheet or whatever i was working on - was never an issue but then again i was never really closely supervised
never deposited at any sites - so the freeroll grind was real - low key upset i didn't know about the play money exploit, would have worked that system hard for sure
