Like with a green font, green felt and green deck? Great accomplishment!

MTT regs should be expecting rake increases very soon. MTT promos for regs are a thing of the past.
Nah, I had this promo as well. I think it mostly has to do with regulations and different markets. Same as different countries get different things in chests etc.

Please find some way to let players know about server restarts early enough. Theres actually people who have a tight schedule all week and plan their sessions well in advance.

24hrs before it happens would be absolutely sufficient

It hasn`t got anything to do with markets regulations.
First that was my thought too but I just find out they randomize who gets this promotion.

Any way to fix this? Probably the nut most tilting
This is most likely a local issue and I'd guess it's related to your user profile or where the data is being saved. Go to pokerstars > More (...) > Help > Open my settings folder and see what's going on with the actual files/folder. You could save these files after having redone your settings and just copy/paste the raw files before a session.

getting a dying SNG to live is done with Golden SNGs and stuff like the 180man challenge you had in the christmas calendar 2015. But nah, I'd rather ask for a 20% rake reduction overall if we're wishing for things that never happen..

Dunno how to play poker on this site... I played $4.50 180 man and liked it - now they are "on-demand"... Sometimes played $2.50 90 man 3-5 per session and they are so good - now they killed them lol.
Pokerstars in 2020 year: slots, spin and go, sport bets, all MTTs are hyper now with 20% rake and 75% KO, cash only 3-max with 15% rake. And I forgot about MTSNG, oh wait.. what is MTSNG?

P.S.: Asked Luke many times about changes in $2.50 90 man because they are running 3-5 per session only. What did he do? Just killed them! Solved a problem!
Good job Luke! Really great job! I appreciate your effort.

A popup in the client 1 day in advance would be better. Or maybe put the slogan into any other tab than the MTT one. I had SNG open all day, did not check my emails the day before and was not prepared for it too.

Sunday Million for reference

October 6, 2014
990/6560 cash for at least $302
18th place gets 3674, 9th gets 10,1698
1st 199,555
2nd 147,600
3rd 104,960
9th 10,168
18th 3,674
990th 302

October 8, 2017
1052/5832 cash for at least $335.57

1st 157,485
2nd 110,514
3rd 77,555
9th 9,263
17th 4,562
1052nd 335

15% paid in 2014 vs. 18% paid in 2017
Top 3 got 34.4% vs. 29.6%

* A stars competitor with a competing $215 flagship paid out 12.5% of their field, with a min cash of $515, allotting 36% of the prize pool to the top 3! I find this to be a lot more exciting/rewarding than the Stars offering.

Oh! you reminded me about screenshots, FTP was even crazier back in the day, sorry about hidden brags:

FTP used to have even more than 50% of the prizepool for top 3:

Even in a massive tournament it was almost 40% for top 3:
