It's simply hopeless to try and keep the lobby activated whilst masstabling just for the stats to update (up to a minute), having no idea of how close the bubble is, and to get detailed statistics.
I'm pretty sure one of the Stars reps has already said that this was not an intentional behaviour, and that they would fix it asap, but they would wait until after SCOOP has finished.

Until they fix it, here's a decent work-round, although I know it's not ideal - look at the Info tab on the actual table, and you can see how close the bubble is. AFAICT, the tab will automatically refresh at the end of each hand on your table, but if you take a moment to click on a different tab (say Chat), then click back to the Info tab, you can see the number of people left, your position, and the number of places paid; this has to be quicker than staring at the lobby and waiting.

TT

Re: Sit out next big blind -- we have discussed having an option for "Sit out next blind" and then every player can choose what's best for them.

Re: Lag in lobby update: Yes, this is getting fixed with next client update.

This new policy on high stakes sitting out is broken...

Since I play usually 16-20 tables on a laptop, I overlap, and occasionally I will be sitting out a table and not realize.

Now I am getting emails saying I am breaking the rules. Shouldn't the software automatically kick me out then?

Seems ridiculous for a 10/20 CAP game which isn't even that high of stakes to be monitored by Pokerstars staff for people sitting out.

I know the hotkeys are still in beta, any chance of an option to make the highlight box around the table thicker, thanks

Hopefully, never.

As a suggestion: option to be able to manually add a final table background to any chosen table by right-click action. Very helpful for mtt-sng's or any important mtt table (e.g. SCOOP) while multitabling.

Next build we will allow you to right-click a table and be able to change felt and background on this table only. While not final table background, this feature should allow you to achieve the same result, i.e. make certain tables really stand out from the rest.

Very cool, thank you.
Just wanted to say you're doing a great job, Stefan.

Hi, I have a question regarding the BOOM! replayer: I had it for one day or so, and ever since the buttons just disappeared. Is it still not fully released yet? Or is this a software issue?

We ran into scalability issues due to the very high initial demand of the feature, so we are tweaking the back end before we open again.

Thanks for the quick answer!

Are there any news concerning zoom MTTs and SNGs?

playing ZOOM i clicked the sit out next BB thing for all tables and the table I clicked it on was dealing me a hand then closed the table. I know it was PLO50 Aquarius Dwarf and am pretty sure it was on #3.

Also it seems either your software can not count hands or HEM2 is making them up for ZOOM.

Great!

Just now i again experienced another bug regarding Sit Out (I'm surprised this hasn't been fixed since it was reported months ago):

When you've clicked Sit Out Next BB, and you're supposed to post big blind in one of your tables (masstabling stacked/cascaded), you do in fact sit out, but the table gets focused/activated, leaving other tables requiring action "behind" and essentially timing out.

This is extremely annoying: Yes you sit me out, great, but i don't really need to know - I expect it to simply work. In fact this should work like this: The next table requiring action, or if none; a table where you are not yet sitting out at, should get focused (switched to), and leaving all the tables i'm now sitting out at silently in the background.

Would definitely love an option for sitting out tables not to pop to the front - sometimes my laptop decides to lag and the process of bringing the tables forwards just increases lag more/when i find a table needing action before I can click the button a different table pops forward saying its sitting out, meaning i end up sitting out on way more tables than necessary

Or even just none colour labeled and all colour labelled separately.
The reason I'm asking for this feature is for game selecting, at the moment when you open the lobby the players are all jumbled around, so seeing how many unlabelled (non reg) players you have is pretty hard, where as if they were all listed in a row its much easier, and hence you can decide to register or not register it quicker.

Thanks
Stars/Stefan if you're not going to implement this idea then please please let us see the players registered for 18men sngs in the pokerstars client on the right hand side like you can for 9men. I understand if it were 180s it would take a lot of resources to load them, but for 18mans its so vital to be able to see players registered from the main client and surely would be an easy tweak?

As you can see, in this there is 9/10 players registered and it shows the players on the right of the client, note there is space for a fair few more players to be fit on below on the right if needed, I'd guess you could fit 16 players in the space (when dragged to smallest size) so see no negative affect of listing players for 18s too?



Please in 18s list the players in the lobby where it currently lists the 'Sit & Go Seats will be available when 18 players registered Open for registration':



Thanks

Can I just get a confirmation that stars can't count or HEM2 is making stuff up? or both?

Hi

I'm wondering if you can help me with a problem I'm having. When I click on "find a player" if they are seated at tables a white pop up box appears and shows all the tables they're seated at.

However, if they are seated at lets say 10 tables and I want to open all 10 tables, each time I click on a table to open it, it opens and covers the white pop up box, then I have to click on the pop up box in my task bar to bring it to the forefront to open another table, rinse and repeat multiple times. Is there any way to keep the pop up showing while the tables are opened in the background?

Also another problem I'm having is when I log in and click "remember password" it never does and I have to re enter it each time I open the software, why is this?

Thanks.
