It is times like this when I can hear my father echoing in my ear;  "If you have a limited budget and not much time to do something right the first time, where in the world do you think you are going to get the time and money to do it a second"?

Still have faith!  Godspeed!

I hate to prognosticate regarding the future situation of Sealswithclubs as I am an avid player and supporter.  I am disappointed in upper level managements judgment with the implementation of the site regarding IT & Security.  The present situation could've and should have been expected, for-casted and prevented or at the very least have an exact plan on re engineering of hardware, software & networking resources that can be rapidly implemented for crisis scenarios that is adversely affecting the seals community.

With every passing minute that the players are kept our of your casino, it speaks volumes to others that want to implement and compete in your arena while simultaneously killing the momentum that you had going with building a reputable on-line community.

I would never ever advocate paying a ransom because it's then open season on your site and besides, there is "No Honor Amongst Thieves" thus DDOS.

What reassurances will they have moving forward and do you realize that all the effort that you put in to build this community is being thrown away as each person starts to explore the COMPETITION!  The competition will then exploit this opportunity and many players will start to resonate with them after you did all the hard work to bring this business model to success. . 

Whether in marketing or some other related function you never advertise to or market to more customers than you can handle, for what could does it do your company to gain a temporary patron only to lose him to another company that is better prepared to handle the business of POKER!

I would guess they are doing their best fighting the attack, and otherwise site is very good. I wont go away because of this kind of shit.

Well, I'm now consistently getting the CloudFlare page, but not the site itself.  I'll keep checking it.

Maybe not too often.  You might be contributing to the problem otherwise. Wink

Would you consider reducing/eliminating the rake on the 10 chip hu sng game?

It's currently 9+1 and 11% rake is hard to beat in a heads up game.

For example the 50 chip game is 48+2, a reasonable 4% rake.

Thanks for the welcome kjlimo!

We don't rake fractional chips and some players really wanted a 10 chip option to try out omaha. I'm going to add a 25 chip option which will have much closer to the normal rake since rounding will have a smaller effect. Possibly I'll remove the 10 chip option as well as I don't really like having a game with that high % rake.

Thanks for the quick response. A 25 chip game would be awesome!

Do you have plans to ever start using fractionals? Say if bitcoins went to $50 a piece it may be a good idea to have a .50/$1 game? Or maybe you will just switch 1 bitcoin=2,000 chips?



VERY good question. I think that increasing to 2000 chips  is terrible idea. micro bitcoin bets is still better that play chips, imo . just start start sealswithclubs2.net or something else like that. probably would need to plaster adds everywhere to make it. profitable but still lots of work im sure. this site is alot of fun and I will play til my bitcoin wallet is full.

a 4 max option(wta) in the sng launcher would be great. or put a 6max wl 3 votes to start maybe. ?.?

 

yea not sure how increasing 1 btc=2,000 chips would work for current account balances either, if it'd be easy to just double everyones balance or if that is difficult/impossible.

1,000 chip= 1 btc works pretty well with current bitcoin price, but like in my earlier example if bitcoin was up to $50, the lowest stake table would essentially be .05/.10, rather than .015/0.03 that it is with bitcoin at/around $15. Eventually I think that would dry up some of the traffic with your lowest game requiring $10 worth of bitcoin for a full buyin.

Anyway, just all theoretical/long term as it probably isn't really likely for bitcoin to explode that high in price anytime soon.

A 4 max game would be great, or as you alluded to a 6 max w/3 votes if it wouldn't be too difficult to implement.

Hopefully this stress test doesn't lost too long.

Also anxious to see the android app developed. I woudn't play it enough to justify asking for an alpha client.

I notice some work going on.  If who looks like is on this is really on this (some of you may have seen the screen that I'm talking about), it will probably be very soon resolved.

Look forward to it being back up shortly.

ST6 is doing good work IMO. 

We are still fighting the attack.

Freemoney with the aid of some outside help (thanks guys, you know who you are) is working like a boss on this with all available resources and polling for more. 

We may be a small team, but we have so much determination.  We will keep fighting through this attack and will keep updating.

Wow, what a scary DDoS.  It actually took five seconds to load the website a half-hour or so ago.

Frankly, I'd put up with delays or an outage if DDoS-related without any loss of reputation.

If you paid off these lame fucks, I'd think y'all were a bunch of pussies, though.

What a terrible business model. It's incredibly stupid to pay, because then others just target you for more extortion. At least when you pay off the Mafia for "protection", they actually do protect you against getting shaken down by rival gangs.

I agree, it isn't well thought out at all. Its probably just some kids that are doing it.
