Yes, and there are actually hundreds (probably thousands) of posts on the subject ITT, there just haven't been any for a number of months.

I don't think contacting support will change anything for you.

Appreciate the responses.

You could still buy in after the bubble had burst.

Whats up with the $215 progressive prizepool?
It was $135k last week, the pool reached 141k, so it is supposed to be $140k now.
Yet is is only listed as a $125k.

There are people who 'buy in late' all the time. A reason I rarely play turnys with 3 1/2 hr buy-ins.

What happens if someone busts out before end of buy-in when they are in the money? do they get the mincash?

What about if the 'rebuy' in 5 minutes?

What about the newly bought in after initial casher? are there some more bubbles, where people no longer cash?

What about if the guarantee is already made, and pay-outs keep changing?

It's Super Bowl Sunday so traffic will be down. Hence, the lower guarantee.

The Internet is a very large and complex organism. Not everyone gets to point X by following path A. Some people get there through paths B through B^5. If any of the 15-50 "hops" between you and a site is down, it could cause you issues in connecting/maintaining connection.

Yup, almost certainly this.

What happened to HU cash games? Also, why the hell does every tourney have late registration and re-entry? Carbon needs to work on this.

You could ask this question of just about all the major US-servicing rooms.

You can have an account created on all skins, however cannot play on more than one skin at a time.

HU cash games are bad for the network.

Late entry and reentries so that players have bigger prizepools to play for.

Unless they got rid of them recently, they still exist. There is a setting to hide them from the lobby. Once you enable this setting (off by default), then they can be found sorted at the bottom of all lobbies.

When I use the advanced filter, the HU option is not checkable. I am almost certain that they did away with them except for sng.

Late entries and reentries only kill the overlay, which is why they do it. Don't see any reason they cant offer tourneys without re-entry or an hour or more of late entry. It doesnt have to be all of them...
