that's an idea.

I think 99bbs is a bad number though. bumhunters might lose a bb and not reload

Also all this **** about bumhunting. Who cares? I personally dont bumhunt even though I aviod the biggest winners, but I really dont mind people sitting out vs me. Its their money and they can do what they want with it. Seeing the petition KOTH thread really made me laugh. This is only about greed and panic because certain players feel they dont get any action. They feel they are entitled to play the fish first because they have the balls and skills to play anyone, allow me to lol? No site should EVER decide who the fish wants to play, the fish should make their own decision because its their money.

well said.

Ok, a good non-accidental BI size that is still near full is 95bb's. So, I'll suggest 95bb's and 195bb's for deep.

We need to define what this actually means though. Does this mean, I'll play just about anyone or does it mean I'll play anyone? We could have 2 different BI amounts mean 2 different things, but I really hate to complicate this. I'll suggest 94bb's to mean I'll play anyone (action mode), that way you can just reload 1bb if you want to turn off "action mode". Also, it should be assumed that if you flag yourself in this way, you won't grim anyone. Even if you are game selecting.

I'll be testing this out with 95bb's on FTP, at both 3/6 and 5/10 I'm CantBustThis. I just want to clarify what I'm actually saying by doing this. I'm still game selecting, so don't be shocked if I say no, but I won't grim you.
