The SNG battle is still one of the banners in the client even though it's over - presumably you are going to change it manually when office hours in the UK start. I got 251st in the final leaderboard after I couldn't login most of the day yesterday. It was the same for everyone and it serves me right I suppose for leaving play till the last moment - or will I still get a prize for being level on points with the guy who was 250th?
You didn't try my suggestion of just playing the normal number of flops on one of the weekend days?
The following week I forgot to play cash on Thursday but I just played on Saturday and got credited with the NL25 ticket automatically.
IMHO, if more than 25% of all players site-wide are sitting out or disconnected in some way it should pause all touranments and SNGs automatically.

I totally understand why Unibet has a policy of winning only 1 UO package. But I think there's a little room for leeway in some circumstances.
I'd like to see players be allowed to win 2 packages maximum online or 1 package and 2 seat only's. The eligibility of a 2nd package would be used for the HR event. If the player is still in the Main Event and can't be used on that stop then it's put into credit for another stop.
This change would still keep all UO money in the UO ecosystem. This would allow players who are travelling from other locations (outside the market) the choice of getting "better value" for their trip by increasing the buy in of the tourneys. Obviously this is solely a choice and not all players will take it but the end result will be more runners in the HR and players will be more open to attending all UO events as the cost of travel in comparison to the buy in will make it more attractive. Another positive would be to reduce overlays (if that's deemed a problem) online.

It would:
- Make it harder for recs to win seats.
- Cannibalise recs bankrolls.
- Take money from the main event prizepool.
- Make the UO main event harder.
- Begin to attract the pro satellite grinders with their books (yes books) of ICM charts. They made the Stars satties thin value and no fun - let's not encourage them.
There's nothing stopping a player from buying in to the HR as well to maximise return on expenses - but there's also no reason why the UO satellite pool should be used to leverage that player's ROI so that they can get into both the main event and the HR at a hefty discount.
All the best and look forward to seeing you again at a UO soon.

That's a terrible idea, although I understand why you suggest it. Not our fault you lived a squizillion miles away

For players out of Country (or across the ocean
) attending a Live event that is a 3k buy in (1k main +2k H.R) makes it a lot harder to justify when the cost of the trip (for pond jumpers) will be about 1k euro in travel/expenses etc.Allowing a 2nd seat to be won online (to be exclusively used in the H.R) would def. make me go from attending 1 UO trip a year to all 4.
And I def. hope to meet up with you again in London. Should be a good time.

Believe me as a former sat grinder that allowing a 2nd seat to be won wouldn't attract this type of grinder. The value as a $T grinder comes from the guys who win 5-15 packages. No T grinder would even consider making the switch to Unibet for allowing a 2nd seat plus this second seat is to be played via the H.R which is not something T grinders do. Many on Stars don't even bother attending the actual Live event.

See you in London - I hope, haven't got a seat yet.
