Nope. It would be a nice feature to have though.

Nice to see the schedule getting better.
Sill very disappointed with the early schedule since it has not changed. There has been a couple games that increased gtds a little bit, but would still be nice to have at least a $11 $500 freezeout starting every hour like before to keep me playing from 6am to noonish.

Kahn or someone else in the know:

Am I allowed to play on Carbon and Sportsbook at the same time since they are completely different player pools? I see nothing wrong with it from a moral standpoint, and I can def login and start playing on both sites on two diff computers. I dont want to actually start playing until I get a definite answer tho, thanks.

You're saying you can physically do it, so I would assume your concern is with getting in trouble from the sites - if that's so, I don't know why you'd want anything less than an answer from the sites themselves.

Carbon is making changes to the MTT schedule and they deserve some credit.

My favorite tournament has had the guarantee increased twice in the last few days.

And they just let it start with 4 people.

i talked to khan already about this just yesterday. U can play SB and aced/carbon/PH but not simultaneously. u can be logged in only one of them at a time

i just logged into my admin page at aced and apparently I am the highest tier - sick brag



option to do 5k points for $175. However, i have heard that the limit on this is quite small so is this even good???
also, there are two VIP point exchange options. the other is 1425 points for $50 which is actually more per point in comparison to the 5k exchange block. its like a fraction of a pennies difference but wtf?? equates to 35% rakeback weeee obviously though i just unloaded my points 2 days ago at 15% LMAO

Lol, that sucks. I should have been saving my points I guess because I exchanged 20k at 15% this month

Im elite as well now and if they keep the max at 5 exchanges a month you can get a total of $875 so it's better than the $750 max on the 15%.

VIP Points earned today: 0
VIP Points earned this week: 0
VIP Points earned this month: 0
VIP Points until next level: 0
VIP Points Balance: 22
Current Tier: Carbon Elite

some run good 4 u.

were u a large lifetime raker be4 you (seemingly) stopped playing there?

Carbon or Aced btw?

"Current Tier: Carbon Elite"

I'm still just 15%


VIP Points earned this month: 26,918
VIP Points until next level: 0
Current Tier: Aced Plus
Lifetime VIP Points: 566,394

it's really strange ^^^looks like you are deserving?????

my only fear now though is this is a mess up and it will be revoked sooner than later

i was thinking the same thing

Let me clarify some things regarding Carbon Elite for you guys.




1) Accounts have been reviewed (and will continue to be) and there is a significant increase in the amount of players offered CE status for November.


2) There is a new exchange rate, making two different levels of cashing in VIP points when on Carbon Elite


3) 35% Points for Cash Exchange of (1,425 VIP points for $50.00 instant cash)

as well as

35% Points for Cash Exchange of (5,000VIP points for $175.00 instant cash)


4) A player with CE status can exchange up to 5 times per month, in any combination of both tiers. i.e. one could exchange 2x at the $50 and 3x @ the $175, or 4 of one and 1 of the other, etc etc.


5) Anyone currently on C.E. status is not a mistake, accounts are being upgraded right now.

May I ask what is the reason to have a leaderboard for if they are going to remove player names from the leaderboard and replace them with Player #s. I think it takes away from the fun of it.

Certain parties were using the leader boards for nefarious purposes. I would imagine the change to player numbers was in response to this negative behavior.

It still shows avatars on the leaderboard (along with player numbers). Seems a little unfair to people who have avatars.

The people running Carbon/Merge have to be the dumbest idiots on the planet.

ha, we don't know who we are competing with. unless u remember avatars, lolz. merge still merging. boomordoomwegrind

I'm seeing names. What LB are you guys talking about?

http://www.carbonpoker.ag/promotions...aderboard.html

SNG Leaderboard from the client. Your link doesn't load up for me.

Hmmm. Yeah, from the client I only see the numbers. But I can see the names from that link.

For example: Micro

Standing Player Name Points
1 Trephine 33.00
2 jimboslice99 24.00
3 tiffanywing 15.00
3 RESTRAINTHIS 15.00
5 invader54 9.00
6 Constantine4 8.00

Ok I got it to load and yes I do see what you see.

Is there going to be some published criterion for who gets an invite to CE status? Without some rubric provided, it seems as though the site can pick and choose who is 'deserving'.

Before hearing about these changes, I was definitely going to put in a lot of hours, and pay a decent amount of rake. Now, without a guarantee of a 35% exchange rate (which I would have had, provided I paid $2K in rake this month), I'm not so sure I want to put in that kind of volume.
