barchart27, diasus, rayclar34, and spitz50 were the colluding accounts.  All of them registered right around the end of the late registration period of the medium BTC.  If you sat a table with any two of them, you should have received a refund, and if not, you should e-mail support ASAP so they can resolve your case.

Yeah there are some big tourneys.

The nightly special > 75 chips buy-in > 750chips prize pool

40 chips deep > 40 chips buy in > 400 chips prize pool

50 chips super stack > 50 chips buy in > 450 chips prize pool


Late deep turbo > 30 chips buy -in > 320 chips prize pool

The monster stack .. turbo 25 and many more.

Those are just big one and Ring games don't have action all the time but .25/.50 Big0 omaha hi-lo run every night.For information you should log in.

I thought this room for a long time does not work Any big tourney? And what about cash game and numbers of players?

Which accounts were involved?

I'm in the same boat.  I used to love seals.  While it wasn't actually how I first found bitcoin, it was one of the first things I did with bitcoin when I found it.  They had an open and accessible platform, no bullshit, no collecting personal data, etc.  Beautiful.

I finally came to grips that seals actually died back in the day and swc is simply not sealwithclubs.  It's a different site with different management and different principles.  The new site is focused on Windows players and we see how that worked out.  As far as I can tell, it's just a long slow deathride here.  It's unfortunate but we may as well come to grips with the reality.  Pretending it's not real doesn't make it any less real.

Despite all my issues with SwC management, i would like to applaud them for refunding all the players affected by the 4-man collusion team during this past Sunday's MediumBTC tournament.  While SwC has mishandled pretty much everything else, they did step up to the plate in a prompt and decisive fashion after the tournament after players e-mailed support with reports of suspicious behavior by these 4 individuals.  Players on all poker sites (BTC or otherwise) should always remain vigilant against possible dishonest users.

I was showing you how calling people names based on nothing is hurtful and unnecessary. 

I understand what's going on, and I'm speculating on the motives behind it and what we can expect in the future based on my decade+ in the industry. 

Amusingly enough, Seals is also how I found bitcoins and I tried to play on SWC through the summer but the games just dried up so much that there was never really any games to play.

(1&2) With the way you juxtaposed quick with very very slow I'm sure you can see how some one would take it like I did.  Hence the horrible name   Yes it seems like they had not much of a plan.  I appreciate those that gave good advice here that stemed from experience.

Do you understand what's going on or are you just speculating?

I am not a shill.  I started playing on Seals 3 1/2 years ago and is how I found btc for which I will forever be grateful.  I still try to play on SwC,

BTW my sig is an unpaid one if that's what you were referring to when talking about pennies. 

1.  The krillrolls weren't around for 18 months.  That's how long the new software has been in SWC's control.

2.  Taking them away a few hours before one was supposed to start is the "quickly" part.

3.  No need to name call, especially in a situation where you don't understand what's going on.  Unless you're just a shill looking for a couple of pennies from papa?

Keeping the krillrolls for 18 months is ripping them away quickly?  Hey Muppet

When should the players expect to see a new promo to facilitate play on the site?  You guys were QUICK to rip away promised rewards but very very slow (and unresponsive) when it comes to what you have planned.  It's almost like you didn't plan any at all...

Also, updates on a mobile platform?  Think you've been working on that one for 18 months now, I don't see how it's not nearly done.

omg people are still playing at this site? lots  of coins given away at BRKpoker you can get some coins even if you are sitting out. a lot of other better poker sites out there.

Where's the money Lebowski? Seriously, thank you for the thought and energy you have put into this, and have consistently put in during the lifespan of SwC. We will think this over. On the face of it, it seems reasonable.

The idea behind weekly krill-rolls at that time was that SWC as a new site needed encourage players from old Seals to play on SWC.
Nobody would really blame them for changing Krill-rolls requirements at that time. It was good time to introduce the change without risk.
I am fairly certain if SWC would introduced for example 1BTC weekly for anyone who earn 200 krill for the week then, SWC traffic would be much
better now ( it would cost them nothing, they paid out the Bitcoins anyway).

Situation is different now. Old Seals players are gone and SWC don't have too many coins to spend for promotions.
I still think SWC need to do something, maybe 500 chips weekly krill-roll for anyone who earn 100-200 krill for the week?
SWC can announce special promo for 2 month, reevaluate and choose to continue with the promotion or not.
It would cost 4 Bitcoins. Hopefully they can still afford it. Players would be happy they got something and SWC will find out if they can increase
ring game traffic that way. If work as intended net cost for SWC should decrease over time. For example 1st week qualifies 30 players,
2nd week 40, 3rd week 50,etc.

What you suggest is a rake-back. For that to have any impact, SWC would have to pay players to play. I know the krill roll is essentially
the same thing, but for some reason I thing it's more acceptable and interesting.

It wold be nice to have SWC opinion.

 


 

Good, now that we are all on the same page, let's fork this sucker 

yea thats a good idea, I've also suggested doing some sort of individual weekly krill "goals" so earning X amount of krill will get you Y amount of chips. that way low stakes players who put a lot of volume in can be rewarded as well.

I have always thought lluboski always makes good suggestions.

BTW here is Micon's response to the linked post.


TY Micon 


Again the point being getting players to both login and play on a daily/regular basis. 

The "Fite me Irl" was an inside joke because I know the guy, he was actually an alright guy - the occasional blowup.(and it's a little sad that you didn't see that as clear sarcasm.)

Yes, I've said a few thing in this thread to him that are regrettable in the heat of the moment, but overall I was just trying to show that he has a personal vendetta against the site and is actively trying to drive people away from a site that I've been a member of for years and still have hope for.

The last thing I would want is for my comments to drive people away from the site and I apologize if anyone was offended, I should have made my posts more constructive and not gone after the guy personally.

Would you consider something like I propose year ago here?

The point is to encourage  recreational players. Those are mostly players who loosing money.

So this means that you cut promised lifetime rewards with no plan to replace them or use that money in any other way than to put it into your pocket.  All you are saying with these vague "Stuff is being looked at" messages is that if traffic picks up, you'll reinstate rewards...which is the opposite of what promos are supposed to do.

Fire whoever is making these decisions and hire someone who knows anything about poker.  It's the only way to save your company.
