That's fair enough. However for those with no interest in tournaments that makes Powerfest a negative promotion. If you want the focus to be the tournament series why not run some kind of mission/challenges with Powerfest tickets (or even sat tickets) as a reward? You'd get players who don't normally play tournaments into your headline events and it would give cash players a promo.

Understood, yet we have not had a worthy promo since Febuary (Powerfest brings nothing to most of us, and definitely not in terms of value), so should we expect something come June, after a 4 months hiatus?

Why have you removed half the flyweight schedule after today's update?! It looks like all the ones starting on the XX.30 hour mark, maybe more. Is this a mistake? I liked them and thought they were pretty popular.

If it's not a mistake, you really need to change all the advertisements of $100,000 Gtd Weekly Bootcamp Series. Or was the guaranteed amount higher before the changes? I can't remember.

So the lobby was working now the entire chip leaderboard thing is just blank kinda frustrating with it being close to the bubble at least I think it is close to the bubble.

We ran missions on our last powerfest series - the team opted not to do the same for this series

I will of course share your feedback however I cant confirm whether or not we will have any promos in June - with the summer season nearly open us numbers fall so not the best time to run a headline promo However I will ask the team to consider something and inquire if anything is planned though the info it not always shared I will of course be happy to update you all when/if possible

The guarentee for Bootcamp has decreased - yes
We have not seen as much support as we anticipated for these tourneys
I will post an update shortly

I understand that missions like last time probably cost too much for Party, but some kind of leaderboard for medium and high-version of Powerfest weeks would probably pay itself back easily by increased rake revenue and with less overlays.

Something like this for medium:
1. WPT500 Aria Package oor 2600$ Super High Roller Ticket
2-3. 1050$ tickets for High Main Event
4-10. 530$ tickets for Powerfest high week events.

And for high like this:
1. WPT Passport ($5k)
2. WPT500 Aria Package
3-5. 1050$ High Roller Ticket

Something like that. In comparison to guaranteeds it is merely a small gesture of goodwill towards players.

Also you could add (it might be too late to implement) some Sit&Go Hero sats that award Powerfest tickets instead or in addition to money prizes.

I repeat, please increase minimum FF buyin to 50bb. No fish buy 30 and in 6m games being short MW grants a huge advantage.

God you whine so much. Just stfu and enjoy games you can actually beat or fo back to stars where you cant be after rb anymore.

How the **** did you come to the conclusion that no fish buys in for 30 bb when most of them do exactly that?

Pretty confident I could beat the Stars games FWIW but Party is obviously softer.

Very few fish buy 30 deep in FF, they do in reg tables but obviously with FF the buyin process doesn't have an explicit choice of how much, so you'll see fish with 50-100bb when first buying in, usually the latter. Shorties create a big structural problem for the games which is clear to anyone with any reasonable knowledge of poker theory. The smaller the disparity between stacks, the less they effectively angle out of the games. Either 50bb min or a ban on ratholing FF would be a huge boost to game quality.

There will be no missions or added incentive for powerfest players this series - we offer value in our guarantees
SNG HERO sats are not something we will consider

This will not happen - for now these games are successful and there is no need to change

These were removed due to lack of player participation - with the hope of increasing our numbers in our other games
