maybe a 25chips bet that it won´t run?

unfortunately my statement about 15 min player next week was not a joke... look at the lobby.

Haha

I have a feeling it will run, more than 20 new registrations today.

The "min 10" player requirement will probably stay for a long period, we just couldn't leave it at 2 and 5 as it served little purpose giving the same 3-5 players that good value. If we had a bit larger budget then maybe. Hope you understand

Thomas

i think you you made a small mistake the correct statement whould be :

Ps. Today only, those who deposit 20mBTC or more are promoted to silver VIP and can register for the 100mBTC freeroll which will be canceled in a few hours (min 10 player restriction)!

And btw we made it min 15 players next week to make sure it won´t run again.

We have a posted a giveaway in the "spreads and rounds" section, tell your friends!

Ps. Today only, those who deposit 20mBTC or more are promoted to silver VIP and can register for the 100mBTC freeroll that starts in a few hours!

Hi Faneagles,

I looked into it a while ago and was not able to find any missing funds, apologies for not getting back to you sooner about that.

Btw, if i'm not mistaken the history tab on the poker client should now be fully functional.

The ETA on website history is a 2-3weeks.

Thomas

I think the 6 mbtc i spent in the early days of "cancellation by system" tournaments aren't been accredited yet. Or maybe it's me that i made bad calcs.
Without an history i didn't checked

Hi there,

Yes, however its currently disabled. A rough guess would be that its available in a 2-3 weeks time.

Btw, when the affiliate solution launches it will only track poker revenue, however we will soon add sportsbook, casino and lottery to it

Thomas

True, we are aware. Tomorrow we start a giveaway plus some staking/prop initiatives. Should hopefully be enough to fill those seats

Do you have an affiliate program?

i dont think any tournament has ran still since the change

All sportsbets should be settled within 12h in the Beta. (usually within a couple hours)

If you have not been credited please simply reply to your bet-recite.

Thomas

Is my sports bet not granded ? and where do i see my history ?

Guys, relax. The fact that we increased the min requirement to 10 players is not the end of the world. In a few days they will run normally so I honestly don't understand why some of you are upset.

Some of you have made around 500mBTC already, that's more than $400

Remember we are in a Beta, we are trying to test everything and find bugs. This obviously includes the tournament schedule etc. we could of course have a "min 2 player" requirement as we did on day 1, but why would we keep it that way, it would literally give DarkBet zero value in return for a lot of Bitcoin spent.

So please, for now the requirement will remain 10 players, which will easily fill out soon. In the meanwhile myself and the team will continue to improve and work on the platform in anticipation for our official launch.

Again though, we greatly appreciate all the help. We have already found a lot of bugs and things that needs to be improved.

"In other words this change is only bad for those who want to play only freerolls with as little competition as possible."

wow. sick brainfart. u should realize people will most likely try out ur freerolls first to check out the software etc before they put money on a site they have never heard of. so it is crucial they run whenever they r offered.
in other words u just offended the tiny little playerbase that u currently have with that statement, wp sir.

whats your name on there i dont see no one waiting at the tables besides me, i should get a sitting bonus lol

i don´t have time to comment everything now but there is not even one scheduled for today so maybe your the confused?

i don´t care about the frerolls go on make them min 100 players...i wont play them anyway
im not here for the frerolls im always regged for all grt and often waiting for players on cash tables but i don´t get anything running. so what happens if people make the same expierence?  right they withdraw and play somewhere where something runs. or won´t even deposit because if nothing runs why should i deposit?
what i said is you killed all action with your changes and thats a fact.
well i hope your "casino and marketing incentives" will bring some action back in the near future and this site will not end like most new btc pokersites.

Btw, I hope you stick with us grinandbearit . You have been very active and we greatly appreciate all feedback, good and bad.

I do feel some of the comments was not completely justifiable though, but everything is taken on board.

Thomas

Hi there, I don't want to argue, but I will reply nevertheless.

Please everyone else who wants to discuss the latest changes, please read through the latest posts, ask our support team and remember that we are in a Beta/testing phase.


It was previously changed to "min 5 players" then in anticipation of our casino and marketing incentives increased to "min 10 players" which is still ridiculously low and regardless we shouldn't have to justify it, given that we are in a Beta. It's still a lot of great value in our tournament schedule and in fact we reduced the requirement for a lot of the guaranteed tournaments which actually increases the overall promo value

In other words this change is only bad for those who want to play only freerolls with as little competition as possible.


It has not been removed, it was simply made a weekly freeroll instead of a daily as I've pointed out several times.  I think everyone can understand the reasoning behind that.


As most of our Beta testers are aware and as I pointed out a few posts earlier there was an issue with the satellites forcing us to remove them temporarily. They should be back within a week.


No, that is not correct. Actually the next guaranteed tournament that is scheduled to start is a 50mbtc guaranteed turbo with a min requirement of 5 players (only 5mBTC buyin)


Not today maybe, I think we will be able to fill those 10 seats soon though


I think you might be confused with how our tournament table system work. As I pointed out in a few posts ago some changes can take up to a week to settle. Regarding those gtts that has "min 10 player" requirement it should be obvious as to why, some of them have pricepools ranging from 200-400mBTC and we simply cant justify giving that good of deal, even though we appreciate our Beta tester greatly. The overlay as of now is 2x, which is a lot compared to most sites


It has literally been less than 24hours and we are in a Beta. As i pointed out earlier they will run, maybe not yesterday and today but they will soon enough. Our priority is not to provide freerolls to a handful of players, we are trying to build a safe and function platform that works


Thanks, we should change that text from daily to weekly and then in a few weeks when the freeroll returns as a daily we will change the text back.


As pointed out above the freeroll has not been removed, simply temporally made into a weekly.


That it true, that text has not been written with our Beta restrictions in mind. I will have someone edit that text so its clearly understandable that the combined prizepool is 500mBTC during Beta.



I think most people are aware that our "online player ticker" is broken, it says 0 , but there are several people registered for tournaments as we speak. I pointed this out in an earlier post as well and we are working in fixing it.


Thomas

-change from 2 to 10 is +8 not +5 (small difference but if the whole player pool is about 10 people...)
-removed the daily ea freeroll
-removed all satelites
-increased also all grt to min 10 player

you only decreased the weekly 100 vip from 40 to 10 which does not change anything... it won´t run anyway


-also not true there is only one left with min 5 players and this had min 2 players some days ago


-some? all! and not only frerolls... not a single tourney run.


btw you should remove some statements from the initial post and your website because they are simply not true anymore.


Quote from your Website: "To show our gratitude towards the early adopters all players who registers and deposits 50 mBTC or more before February 2014 are promoted to "Silver VIP" level and eligible for the frequent "Early adopters" freerolls. "

-you removed the ea freeroll so you should not mention it as a promotion

Quote from your Website: "Play a tournament or sit down at any cashgames table and get automatically enrolled in the monthly Rake race! At the end of each month the ten players who rake the most wins prizes ranging from 10 to 500 mBTC."

- the whole pool is 500mBTC and winner gets 200mBTC not 500mBTC

your free to feel you did the right choice with the changes but from my point of few (one of max 5 player who deposit) this is the result
