Today was the third time (once this month-daily mission, twice last month-freeroll fury) that a coupon showed up as missed the next day even though I actually did the task. Yesterday I played nightly 1.10 and it shows missed today.

Also, at least twice last month it ( i think maybe even 3 times) it showed up as missed when I really did the task. I contacted support, but they just gave me vague BS answers.

I'm just not gonna do the more expensive tasks like 1.10 and 2.20 if this happens again. The only reason I played was for the coupon.

I haven't checked the player admin to see if it shows as missed or not but ive gotten all the ones ive completed.

Check to see if you have the coupons from the lobby. Maybe you're just not getting alerted...?

I checked the coupon area again. It's not there. Player admin shows "missed."

I'm familiar with how it works as I have strived to complete the tasks almost every day since the start of February. Usually, I get the coupons. But a few times they have shown as missed. I check player admin religiously to monitor my progress.

I double and triple checked to verify that I enrolled in the correct tournament or did the correct task and I have never found any errors on my side.

No, but they may eventually give you an option to withdrawal using WU. I've talked to a lot of people who have randomly got the option on their account. I've had it for awhile now.

If you play both 6 max and FR during peak hours there may be 7-8 tables, but what you're seeing is pretty normal for most of the day.

There usually is at least 1 or 2 of each level up to 600NL. It varies sometimes obviously. During peak hours there is usually 5 or so 100NL tables, 2-4 200NL tables, 1-3 400NL tables and 1-3 600NL.

I play $50NL and $100NL full ring on Carbon. There are usually anywhere from 3-8 tables for $50NL and 0-2 tables of $100NL full ring depending on the time of day. My guess is right now is not prime time hours. However, if you are like me and willing to start tables and play HU and shorthanded, it doesn't usually take long to increase the table numbers some. I don't remember ever having a problem getting a good mix of $50NL. I have been a little disappointed with $100NL but so far when it runs it's a good game, so that's good.

If you are willing to play a mix of 6max and full ring, you can get more tables, too. Unfortunately, I am not able to profitably play like that. To me, 6max plays like a different game than full ring.

This promo didn't start until March. As mentioned earlier, did you remember to activate the promo? Mine have shown missing early in the day but show up later way ahead of the freeroll start time.

Yes, activated long ago. Again I'm very familiar with how it works. I've played the freeroll almost every day.

I'm glad I posted here because I ask got a real response (i.e non-fluff) and they said they are fixing it. And the coupon was just added.

Seems like the late reg tryout is working in our favour: this Sundays Bigs now have 3 hrs late reg, but with reduced GTDs (10k, 15k, 15k, 15k). 12min levels tho...

Theres also a bunch of decent satellites scheduled this Sunday, with a fair amount of seats GTD to all the Bigs + the $215 and HR.

Also, on Saturday, the $11 sat to the big ticket is 50 seats GTD again (thinks its been 25 seats for a while?), and they also put up a $22 10 seats GTD sat. to the HR

I hope next weeks nightly tournaments are changed as well. Though the weekdays really need to be less than 3 hours. Hopefully the 2 hour late reg mentioned comes to fruition.

wtf happened to the idea where u buy in to a poker tournament, you lose all your chips, and you're out.

this is the twilight zone: 2 hour late reg is an improvement (and i agree that it is).

Greed.

For certain special tournaments I'm all for it, but it being the standard (and not just on Merge) is just dumb. All the TD's are worried about posting the biggest guarantees and lost sight of what people enjoyed about MTTs. Both live and online it's a problem and the guy who pioneered it agrees it is.

Patience. Is that how grasshopper's do it?

If you read my last post you should have realized that the fact that support didn't resolve the issue the last 2 times I encountered it warranted me to take some extra action this time

Maybe you should stop acting like passive little weasel grasshopper and take some initiative so that they feel pressure to get their system working right.

Although merge is pretty frustrating with all their re entries and late registration lasting an eternity it is nice to see them make some attempt in the right direction. I just hope they don't go back to their old 4 hr late regs in a ffew days if the numbers aren't what they want. I think if merge does it right like bovada they will start to grow again but I guess we'll see.

One thing I would like to see tho is some rebuys similar to the satty formats they have. Maybe one hour or 1:15 of registration/rebuys then addon etc after (turbo & reg speed). I know this is a long shot since they want to rake every entry and rebuy but I think they would be very popular and improve their daily mtt schedule

The bannings are justified, but considering that PokerHost, which doesn't offer sportbetting, is still offering games in the restricted states, it is probably running afoul of sports betting laws that is keeping most of the network out of those states. If it's between poker and sports in the Jazette controlled Merge network, poker is always going to come out the loser.

Nothing makes me instaquit Carbon and head over to Bovada quicker than getting an image of a checkered flag and a message of Congratulations, you finished in 6th place! in a 10 man don SNG. Really, ****ers?
