Technical question.  I am using google authenticator for SWC.  In case I lose my phone is there a way to create backup?

If you wrote down the key you can enter it on a new device. If you sync your phone with your computer or similar you should be able to recover all data to a new phone if needed.

If you need want to get the key you need to disable Google Auth and re-enable it to see the key:

And to reactivate:

Thanks

Ok, I found a fix after doing some research: you have to install this:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=29
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)

or this.

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=5582
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)

Hope that helps others. Maybe you should include these DLLs or instruct players to install this.

What are the minimum requirements of the PC client? It works on my other laptop, but I downloaded it on this other one and it won't work. This is bare Win XP SP3 with nothing else installed, so maybe it needs dotNET or something?

This is the error message:

This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I tried both the zip and the self-extracting exe (7zip). Both do not work on this particular computer.

I didn't realize hu krill is 4.5 times the nine player. Sigh shame that there is no money hu as everyone is solid.

Yes, there is a name for anyone who joins a table with some guy who is on a dozen other 1/2 tables lurking like an ant lion.  That's sucker.  The increased krill, though, means that if you do find something you're marginally better than, the effective rake is a lot less, especially if you're working toward that 50k krill freeroll.

People who start tables in ring should get a little more inscentive. Tables fill up pretty fast and the table starter rakeback is negated pretty quickly. Maybe 2x krill for people who start ring as the table starter isn't that much of a  reward for starting tables imo.

In case anyone doesn't know, the HU krill earn rate is 4.5x the 9 player rate. The formula is:

sqrt(rake) rounded down to the nearest 0.1 then multiplied by (5 / players dealt).

This was changed a few months ago.

50% rakeback is valuable and if someone wants to be a dedicated table starter they can keep starting new games. I'm sure there will always come a point where games won't immediately fill up, but I would like to be wrong about that. ;-)

It needs 1000 chips, I only have 13.

There is a 1 chip tournament each hour on the :45s.  Alternates between rebuys turbos and standard nlhe games.  This is for you. Once you win enough playing these you have a 10 chip tourney Every hour on the :10s. That one even has a 100 guarantee I believe.  Win a few of these and before you know it you're on your way to the big Sunday game... :-)

In the next update, can you guys make the card graphics a bit larger?

Hole cards and community cards.

Compared to other sites the cards on SwC are smaller and harder to see.  Obviously you guys have done a great job so far, but I think if you make the card graphics larger and more appealing, you will attract more players.

Thanks.

Google apparently fixed their screwup.  I assume a successful login cancels removal of the authenticator?

Yes, that is great.

That is correct, if you log in successfully your Google Auth will not be removed.

Suggestion:

1. Seals put up a form or otherwise instruct players to communicate. Email, etc.
2. If you made a deposit with a traditional bitcoin wallet, sign a message from the address(es) you used.
3. SwC should coordinate with affected players who do have their password, but can't login with 2FA using GA.
4. Players prepare as much proof as needed that only you would reasonably know, chat logs, hand histories, etc.

This doesn't stop hackers who have control of your machine, but it's better than nothing.

If you are locked out definitely email us at [email protected].

None of those methods are solid because like you say, anyone with control of the computer will have them.

Signing is particularly bad because of rouge webwallets and because players often have others deposit direct to their Seals account. And the fact that people using many wallets won't even be able to sign.

In the warnings when activating Google Auth we say that we will remove Google Auth at our discretion. We never remove it with a wait period of less than a week, and 2 weeks is the default in absence of evidence ( evidence beyond control of the email on account). A valid login will cancel the request. This means that if you have Google Auth activated and you check up on your account once a week no one will be able to get in your account without your Google Auth device no matter what.

This recent issue seems to have only affected a few of our players. Only 2 have written so far about losing Google Auth access this way.
