+1^^.. A 40 dollar turbo 5k-10k would be perfect anywhere in that timeslot.

And i really enjoyed the monsoon and Croc much more today (excluding loosing) with antees. The hurricane and tornado however are total nitfests and need this change too. Hope every single mtt gets this change i really dont understand why there should be a "trial" period on 2 tournaments.

Nope we have to wait "a few weeks" to test them out! It really is such a tease to only tweak 2 tournaments. Just add this structure to every SINGLE mtt please.

Does anyone ever play the twister or typhoon at :0300 and :0500? Seems like these 55s could see a lot more participation if they were bumped up say 4 hours allowing more time zones to reg these. Also would make a reason to reg 888 tournaments earlier. Perhaps im wrong though, I just never once have played these tournaments and would really love to.

888 rep was there a reason you didnt add auto timebank fixed so when your actually have ante invested ur timebank kicks in auto rather than fold? i hope you see what we are getting at that its not really auto timebank when mtters multitable this is a huge annoyance , and the breaks seem like a very easy thing to add

yeah I play them pretty much every single day and it would be horrible to remove them, especially cuz many Aussies couldn't play at the times you suggested.
what's your idea, just remove every tournament at that time slot because you don't play them and kill the small but steady traffic there?
These tournaments are great and I would rather see another increase in guarantees, as the gtd. increases (6k$ gtd now) already had some effect and 1st place went up to usually around 1800$ in the typhoon as opposed to ~~1300$/1400$ in autumn.


wouldn't mind having a bigger tournament @around 14cet, 16:40 got the breeze anyway and it's not like the breeze has an incredible prizepools either.

Interesting. I just assumed the automatic timebank feature never worked because it would never active when I was testing it preflop. In that case, please fix the time bank in both manual and automatic settings!

+100
im sure that anything new, fresh with decent gtd prizepool like some turbos or better, FO (109 TYPHON AND TWISTER highroller?) or rebuy 11+r with 7-8kgtd? would be great

Moving the shot 75 rebuy hyper thing back 1 hour making it a $55-$109 turbo freezeout with a nice guarantee and made bold like the monsoon would be huge.

The Shot is one of the few things that i consider too degen to play ha.

On second thoughts might not need moving from its current timeslot. Its just not worth playing at the moment for whats up top.

Fair enough i stand corrected.

888 any tournament with a 5k+guarantee would be a great addition. Any buyins.

And the 22rebuy 2k guarantee needs some love. Please Consider increasing guarantees to some of your midstake mtts.

just make it 6max reentry, w/ 6 min levels like the 35 that starts right after
or at least keep it hyper but make it 6max. fullring hyper plays so poorly


and the 22r 2k needs earlier antes structure to give people incentive to play more hands and grow the prizepool.
the fact that you changed the rebuy structure, allowing people to double rebuy from start instead of reentry was beneficial

really looking forward to see earlier antes in the 6maxes too

Last edited by ferdilicious; 04-03-2015 at 12:13 PM. Reason: earlier antes!

I never reg the Shot because it is full ring. If it was 6max or just a turbo at 6minute levels i would play it every single day.

Agree about early antees but its clear we need early antees on every single mtt. But the 22 rebuy just needs a bigger guarantee to attract more players and rebuys. I myself never even rebuy once because it pays so little up top (800ish).

i dont think putting bigger guarantee will have much of an effect on it, but changing the earlier antes structure and make it 1500chips starting stack and 1500 rebuy will make people play more and invest more leading to a bigger prizepool. others will see that has more than 1k up top and will join
its a nice tourney because it has 12 min levels and plays smoother than the 10r 5k wich is a total garbage structure wise


raising the guarantee out of the blue will not work

see the Lightning. they increased it to 7500 after XL series, and it didnt grow. now it's 5k gtd again

The problem is that there is not much more wind to name tournaments after. They are all winded out.

I propose THE GUST, a $44 freezeout two hours before the Breeze

The daily 60 dollar super turbo deep to the whale has been showing really poor attendance and even has gotten cancel a few times.

Why? Because there are no seats GTD! When it was a satty to the SUPER whale it was a 3 seat guaranteed tournament and a must play daily. Everyone wants the chance to win a seat or a 600$ cash prize (if you are already regged), but its not worth it if there isn't at least 2 people paid.

Please bring back the 3 seat guarantee. Would also work well for the Volcano. 2 seats at least please.
