its unbelievable but still no official reaction to my questions relating the servers going down and no tourny was cancelled. They keep forwarding messages to the respected department but it looks like the just throw them in the corner with all the rest of the complaints. They are really ****ing things up this month.

Give them a couple of days before I get really annoying.

Pretty sure that was mentioned before but not really wanna read back too many pages....is the software always consuming that much of CPU? I have never seen this before on any other site.

The CPU "chugs" problem seemed better for me these last few days too, but today it went back to being a bit laggy/chuggy again.

The promo prolly would have been OK had something not gone wrong with it those first 2 days... Maybe they miscalculated or maybe there was some kind of cockup with the implementation, but something for sure must have happened as I find it hard to believe it was intended to work out the way it did.

can someone give me a simpler explanation of how the vip systems works.
The way I see it is if you get Palladium or whatever its called u have to rake 1666$ (or 10k PPs) every calendar quarter and you can choose between 12% cash-back or 20% in bonusses? that doesn't seem right. Can anyone explain?

highly appreciated!

its 2 PPs per $, and you need 9k PPs/quarter (3 months, jan - mar, apr - jun, etc) for palladium, so $4.5k rake. then you save up until you have 20k points ($10k rake), and buy a $3k bonus which is 30% equivalent rakeback. palladium status lasts for the remainder of the quarter you got it in, and the entire subsequent quarter, so you can slow down a bit from palladium pace ($49.3 rake/day) if you want to chill out and aim to reach 20k points by the end of the next quarter

buying the smaller 20% equivalent bonus or taking 12% instant cashback would be quicker $ but pretty silly

dear party poker,

regarding your rake-free tournament promotion: i appreciate the discount, but no-one cares about tourney rake. people care about appealing tourneys. if you want to attract more tournament players to your site (at a time where people are looking for extra tourneys to play, with FTP gone) put more appealing tourneys on the schedule. stuff like $33 rebuys, $75 freezeouts with 10k-15k guarantees, and raise the guarantees on your existing tournaments. if you build it, they will come.

and first and foremost, you need to run a tournament series, like ftops/wcoop/scoop/gsop/ecoop. run a PPOTS, be generous with the guarantees, force tourney players to open party every day for a couple weeks. this is going to be way more effective than not charging rake, which most people won't even really notice. make party a must-play tournament site. right now most people just load up the weekly $215 major, and ignore the rest.

Wooot, unlocked Italy last night. PP must have felt sorry for my runbad the last 2 days... I must add though that I already had Milan in column 3 on day 1, so no new C3 days here either..

Did you get the money straight away? About tens hour later when i logged back into my account, the country i got yesterday Mexico hasn't been registered as dominated nor is there any money in my account for it.

Loading up partypoker live chat is the ******* longest in the world. I swear to god, i could have trained a pigeon to take a note to their headquarters and then on return, eat the ****** and still have time for late night internet shenanigans by the time this chat loads up.

Yes, you should get all bonuses immediately. First, it will tell you you have new cities. Your count will already be updated, but you still have to press that green button. When you press it, the overview will immediately update and show what bonuses you have so far, the country overview will also show you how many times you have each city.
If you have all 4 Mexican countries according to that overview, yet, the bonus overview doesn't show it, then clearly something is wrong. It should say Number Of Countries Dominated To Date as being 1, and the Cash Prize $250.

Indeed, it says 0 countries have been dominated, yet clearly in the table all 4 Mexico cities have been accumulated. Not sure what is going on, but it happened over 16 hours ago and still hasn't been updated.

I'd go to Support, but apparently they're all taking their lunch breaks. If i had such a pathetic job, i guess i'd take 2 hours off too.

I can safely say, since i joined Party, the experience in regards to the experience they provide ; has been very very mediocre. Poor software, poor reliability and the support is dire. I feel like a Goldstein in 1942.

I'd send them a mail or call them, instead of chat. From what we can read above, it looks like chat is just bogus.

lol just revealed 63 cities for $3.

btw, WRT Seabeast's post, I'll point out that I have one MTT friend that signed up an account just for this promo, i saw multiple mentions of it on facebook, and it's gotten me to dabble in MTTs on the side. sounds like a pretty successful promo to me.

The waiting time? 6 hours later and i still wait.

I send an email, they reply saying i have to email them with the registered email address. So i change the email linked with the account, re-send the email and 2 hours later, they send the same email back only attached with "We are doing our best to assist you" at the end. I cannot compute such ******ation.

Is Partypokers support team actually a Prison?

Since the start of this adventure, +1 Beard +0 Help.

Im literally being trolled. I do not enjoy such a reverse in fortunes.

On a side note, the cave hole you live in seems to be doing wonders for you

VIP support is prompt 95% of the time. Why all the drama?
