Looking forward to the upcoming changes as well. Glad to see that Shyam is very realistic with where things are at and it's good to see that he's willing to embrace a new idea/concept that Full Tilt will be running with in the future. Any radical change is a gamble, which may or may not pan out, but staying complacent with the current methods is a guarantee for failure. Best of luck.

Maybe FT would be the best spot to try out 18m hyper turbos, that could generate some interest.

At the moment, yes.

whoa that was brutally honest.

also you should at least attempt to raise guarantees again now that wsop is over. Speaking for myself, since the latest reductions of the sunday benjamin/trex to 30k guarantees, and the sunday 500/fat tuesday to 50k/40k, i've pretty much cut these tournies out of my schedule and i used to play them all. Their value relative to other tournaments on a sunday just isn't there anymore. When you cut guarantees you further reduce the amount of players who want to play them, something stars hasn't figured out either yet.

Not sure if serious

the first big change in the upcoming weeks will be the removal of the withdraw button. this change may annoy a lot of people in the short run but in the long run they will realize that they will not be able to convert their playchips to $ anyway so the existence of the withdraw button would only create an unnecessary confusion.

That just sucks.

I am far from playing 109$ Games right now, but I played Razz, Irish, Horse, Stud8 and Limit Hold Em in the BGOTW due to the nice satellites and thought it was very cool.

No, it was a victim of the ring game changes. We aren't spreading enough different games these days to keep Game of the Week running. It was one of my favorites as well, so I'm also disappointed. Sorry about that.

Wow, pretty drastic changes. Can you give us any insight as to what the mtt changes will be and when they will be implemented?

Looking forward to improvements and hopefully bigger prizepools!

You still could host the GotW as a MTT promotion.

What is the plan for those with unused tickets? My tournament lobby currently shows other $100 tourneys being eligible, but they're pretty much all NLHoldem. Any chance of converting them into Tournament dollars for added flexibility?

Obviously a real shame that GOTW has now gone. But FT is now just a joke for anything non NLHE/PLO. Though I am interested to see what the next FTOPS schedule will be like. Hopefully it will still have some limit games, mixed games, draw games etc. Though I'm not very hopeful, or if they do they will most probably have even smaller guarantees.

Keeping with their rec friendly model I'd keep GOTW but drop it to the $50 price point. A 5k guarantee should be doable as the lower the buy the more options FT will have via sats that will create more seats then what's now being offered. I'd also condense the offering to only 6 other game formats.

EET 13:00 1.5 gtd 50$ and 18:30 750 gtd rush 10$ tourneys doesnt seem to be popular. What about changing them? What about adding some 6max or 4max action? lets say 13:00 starts with 10$ 1k or 25$ 1.5k gtd 4max deep stack and 18:30 with 10$ 6max super stack 1k gtd or 25$ 2k gtd. Also wouldnt mind some extra rush rebuy tourneys.

An abundance of rush rebuy tournys will always be good. They're the most popular out of all the small stakes mtt and attract the most rec players for obvious reasons.

More rush mtts = more rec players. Load the lobby up with them!

Upon registering and depositing some money, my account was locked and they're asking for verification of my identity via some documents. No problem, but they also asked for "proof of ownership of neteller account xxxxxxx". What does that look like? Should I just make a screenshot while I'm logged into the neteller account?

Yup, I already sent them my docs and a screenshot of me being logged into neteller. Just figured asking here would be faster than waiting several hours for support reply if someone here has already dealt with this situation.

What will happen for players that have a GOTW ticket in their accounts? Mine hasn't been converted so I would like to know what the plan is.

Please add timebank to $50 big 6card PLO on saturdays.
Atm its like 10sec or 30sec at max which is really too little given its not a turbo MTT.

Does anyone have an idea if the mtt is going in any direction? Can we expect a new schedule any time soon shyam with the new updates and all.

As mentioned before, after looking at the mtt lobby, a rush rebuy every hour would definitely attract more players to the lobby IMO.

Multi-entry formats of such rush rebuys would generate greater prizes.

You could then fill the lobby with additional tournaments once said players are attracted to the lobby.

Regardless of my suggestion can you please reply with something.

Thanks
