Hi David/Leo,
As the first edition of the Unibet Online Series is coming to an end, I think it is time for some feedback. I really enjoyed the first Unibet Online Series (although I busted with KK 4 of the money in the 100 euro main event, which still is a bit painful), but of course there are also some things that possibly could improve. I will go with SleazyP84/moreTBC's way of giving feedback in this thread
http://www.unibetcommunity.com/t5/Ge...ad/td-p/139457
I will skip the good part of the series, since I think moreTBC points them out very well already.
Bad points from current series:
- The worst point for me was the broken lobby almost all the evenings. The only thing that showed the right info was the small info box on the table, but when you went to the lobby of a tournament, it was more often than not showing wrong or long delayed info. Probably a server issue (too much traffic?), but it needs to be fixed really soon!
- I focused on the Low and Nano leaderboard, and something that stand out for me was the huge difference in buyin for tournaments in the low leaderboard. I think the difference between a 2 euro freezout and a 10 euro R/A is to big. I would suggest having the highest buyin in the low leaderboard being a 10 euro freezout, and then make the Low main event a 10 euro R/A, instead of a 25 euro R/A. I think this would be more balanced and better for the players.
- I would really like the late reg to last less levels in the R/A tournaments. I think buyin in for 8bb or keep having to rebuy is not that good of a thing. Especially considering the big difference in buyin as described above, players will end up paying a relatively really big amount of money for some tournaments compared to other tournaments in the same leaderboard.
- On the first sunday of the series I played a Nano event that lasted till 5am CET. I couldn't play it out, although I was huge chipleader on the final table, because I had to go to work next day. Very frustrating, but probably a consequence of the great success the series was and it got way more entrants than expected?
Suggestions for next series:
- Make the first sunday of the series also 2-day events. I think it is really cool to have a 2-day event and it stops tournaments from running till early morning, while still having a good structure. (Maybe having a regular 2-day event in the normal tournament schedule is a good idea as well?)
- Somewhere (possibly on the community) release some kind of tool where you could easily calculate the points you will get with finishing on place x in a tournament with x entrants and x buyin. The formula on the promo page is really complicated. I am still in the rebuy low for tonight, but have no idea which place will get me what amount of points. A simple tool could do the trick, as I already know amount of entrants and buyin.
- As said before, maybe some kind of winners freeroll for all event winners ( I think preferably on the next sunday after the series end)
- Leave the promo page on the general promotions page a bit longer. It is already removed now (although the page still existing) while the tournaments still have to be played out.
- Close late reg earlier in R/A events. It also seems that there were only freezout or R/A tournaments, is there any reason to not have re-entry tournaments, without an addon? Also some more differentiation in formats would be cool.
- I have said this as well before, but I think these kind of events could/should be streamed on the UnibetPoker twitch channel as well. This is the biggest channel (don't know if it has the most active users though), but I think it is cool to have some other content on there outside Unibet Opens as well. I think it is important to keep growing that channel as well. What if an amabssador stops working for Unibet and you hire a new one? Than he/she has to start growing a twitch channel from 0 again. The UnibetPoker twitch channel is the only channel that you know you can keep growing over time, because you own it.
@SleazyP84/MoreTBC sorry for copying some of your suggestions, but I think you mentioned some fairly good ones!
If someone wants to pass this on to Leo or copy/paste it in the feedback thread, it would be appreciated.
Also, @Hatebreedd the best of luck tonight!
Other question: will there be more (different) MTT promo's during the year or will 4x UOS be all for MTT's?
