I may write code in exchange for bitcoins.
Hi Admin, I have a suggestion, people are always confused with different time zones as to when a particular tournament will start. If it is possible could you make a Timer Countdown on the front page of the site itself and/or maybe in the OP also which tells how much hours is left for a tournament to begin?

It would be really fun if they could do it, but I'm pretty sure that smf isn't going to allow users to execute arbitrary javascript in a forum post.  However, they could have link in the OP to a timer on their site.

Yap, I have suggested this before.  But they said that it is impossible to add the countdown timer in the OP.

In fact, i have ever seen a thread with countdown timer in the OP, but I forget it and I dont know how to add such kind of countdown timer in OP.

If you know how to add it in the OP, its better if tell them by PM.

just regeistered and hope ladyluck was with me when the tourney

Thanks for registering! Good luck!

Hello friend,

Would you please add the countdown timer of the 1BTC freeroll in OP?
I think it would be great Smiley

I do not think this is possible. We would have to manual update it every so often. I think the best option would be to visit this page and keep it open to get an update of when the tournament is.

why not make the freeroll a standard pay out system? i mean its a win-win for players and the site. more people get into the money, the more people will get to try the cash games.

IMO, freerolls are there to try the website and hopefully try and play the cash games. so why make it a fewer payouts. do you want players to just cash out after the freerolls because nobody is there to play the cash games.

I think this is a good idea and we have had others recommend this as well.

We will be setting all our freerolls from now on to payout the Top 3 no matter how many players are in the tournament.
no, what?

you are doing the opposite to what you just commented in the quote lol!

what i think you are doing is isolating prizes, so you already know the strongest players that will be most likely to take it...

make it fair

What? If I understood KPGuy correctly he is stating that it would be beneficial to both us and players to set a standard payout of Top 3 spots instead of requiring a set amount of players to payout more then 1 spot.

I do not understand what you mean by "isolating prizes". We are simply making it to where we payout Top 3 positions in our freerolls instead of "winner takes all".

standard payout is payout based on how many people joining the competition. i.e 20 % of the participants, if there is a participants of 50 people, top 10 will get the prize , split up according to the percentage of the 1st - 10th rank, this way, alot more people can get the prize instead of making payout for top3 which only isolate the prize to several people

more people to receive the prize = more people to play the tables or join a buy in tournaments in the end

We appreciate the feedback but I do not agree with this type of payout structure. We like to make playing in our freerolls worth players time, and doing the payout structure like this does not really do that.

Example: You pay 10% of 50 participants (which is 5) people in our 200mBTC freeroll. The payout structure would be something like 1st = 80mbtc, 2nd = 40mBTC, 3rd = 30mBTC, 4th = 30mBTC, 5th = 20mBTC.

Currently our lowest tournament buy-in is 50mBTC and our lowest ring game buy-in is 40mBTC. To us this does not make sense to payout less then what it will cost a player to play in our other tournaments or cash games from their winnings.

Please remember we are representing ourselves as a high stakes bitcoin poker room so this payout structure does not benefit us. (At least for our 200mBTC Freeroll)

Hope I explain this well to everyone. Thanks.

Actually the 10 % is only my suggestion, I dont really know how the standart payout works, KPguy, moonbind and me just taking up example from betvippoker , where the freerolls winning is split among the guys according to the number of participants, limited this to top 3 guys, only 3 guys managed to play in the next buy-in tournament or either play up in the stakes tables

your suggestion is good, but as what they said "they are representing high stakes bitcoin poker room"

imagine that there are 200 players registered in the 200mBtc freeroll, 10% means 20players will get the prize, means that they will only get small prize and will not able to join the buy-in tournament or ring games.

I prefer to limited winners than based on total participants.

Lets say top 3 or top 5 depends on the total prize.

Especially for the upcoming 200mBtc freeroll, top 3 winners is reasonable.

But for another bigger prize such as 1BTC freeroll, better to split the price into 5-10winners.

Of course, this is only my own opinion & suggestion.

make the prizes for the top 10% finishers
this is how tourneys usually work
+
there will be at least 6 players ready to play cash after freerolling

What do you mean by top 10% finishers?Does it mean 10% from total registered players?

and i think there is no guarantee that there will be at least 6 players ready to play in ring games after the free-roll

At this time we are going to stick with our Top 3 payouts. Anything more then top 3 it makes the winnings so low, that you wouldn't be able to do a minimum buy-in at a cash game table.

is the site down? I can't seem to connect..

No sir. The site is up and running just fine.
