Official FTP Relaunch Thread (OP updated October 26, 2012) - Page 89 - Poker News

Ha, Love it! I agree with you, one of main reasons I can't stand PS is... playing against the 25+ table freaks(no offence).
I am sure those grinders make good money, so I am happy for them.

Atleast they're converting previous points to FTP least I can get a few mini-FTOPS tickets out of it.

How do yall expect this to eliminate the 25+ table freaks? You will just have the 25+ table freaks playing more tables on stars and less tables on ftp, not none probably, there will still be the 25+ table timebank nits no matter what

Have way more points than I thought I would. They converted all kinds of stuff into points. This will be fun.

Awesome.

In the email I got it shows my points balance as "0" and real money balance as "0". Somewhat disturbing.

Previous Account Balance: NOT SHOWN*

real-money balances above $100 may not be shown below - you will be able to view your balance securely in the game cashier following re-launch.*

--------------------------------
That is how mine is shown. And iron man medals, academy credits, and ftp pts all show numbers for me (and based on my math, seem correct)

Hi everyone!
Just 2 questions.
1, I also received an email with my account balance. Have anyone there stated also mid-year bonus? I'm not sure if I played enough days in June. Maybe i just needed 1 or 2 more days to accomplish requirements, but the site was closed on June 29th. But, as i said i don't know if this is my case. Do you know, if i could complain that i didn't have opportunity to reach demanded number of days due to that site was closed?

2, I ordered pretty expansive stuff from FTP store before FTP was shut down. Like for 60k points. I've never received the item. Do you think, that i will have my points back?

Me neither. In fact I haven't gotten any e-mails from FTP, even though I was a regular on FTP.

Got my email. Wonder how much FTP points will be worth? They are even paying back earned rake back. Sucks that they are breaking affiliation with my rake back site Poker Strategy.com
