i just wish for once whoever decided to come up with the promotions and advertising would treat the members here like they weren't complete tools.

I don't care if you have to cut costs, I really don't.

I don't care if you have to cut the 100k in half down to a 50k.

I don't care if you cut $10 000 a week out of your guarantees by changing all the 20ks to 10/15/25k's.

I even don't care if you donk around with the game styles and try to pass off Turbo's/Rebuys/Short handed as "New styles."


But just for once be straight and just say "we're cutting some costs and making some changes. There will still be guarantees, not as large as before, but the buy ins will vary and the styles will vary to try to appeal to a variety of different customers."

Rather than paint it with some glitter as some exciting new idea.

As for constructive feedback -

Monday -

Looks fine, I'd play it. Anyone who played the 20k will be happy about this game.


Tuesday -

Will also play it. It's nice to have an expensive tournament to limit the field.


Wednesday -

If I'm bored and already playing on 888 then I might participate. But I'd never adjust my schedule around a Turbo tournament.


Thursday -

I probably won't ever play it. Rebuys just don't appeal to me. But I'm sure there are people who do enjoy them. Trial and error on this tourney is all you need.


Friday -

Solid tournament.


Saturday -

Disapointed to see the 10 000 starting stack dropped to 5 000.

The chip stack structure was never a problem with the 100k. It was an attraction. Cutting everything in half is fine, but you could have left the 10k chips.

 

Sunday -

As the turbo, if I'm bored and already playing on 888 I'd participate in this game, but I wouldn't schedule my weekend around a short handed 25k.

yeah with just buyiins be great for them who can afford these games. but wat about me and the other 1000s who cant afford 50 bucks or 30 bucks or watever. lets face it the day has come when only the people with a decent bankroll and money to spend on buy ins can play these games. they made the 100k impossible for most to play they now makinng all the daily games worth playing out of our reach.

why dont u just email us and say look u r not wat we want here go somewhere else we don't want u little people playing here now just people who have money to pay there way in. the nails all year have been placed in the cofin and now the nails are well and truly in the coffin is sealed R I P 888

The mistake i made in feb when i said am leaving is give u another chance 888 but u don't want the likes of me playing on ur site so why not be honest and tell me.

reward schems wat a waste of time. we don't want to be rewarded for playing we want games we can play nothing more.

how in 6 months can a site with so much choice for everyone go to this crap. wat a waste of time for all am taking off all my skins as i speak am not even stayin around to see.

was in a great mood until i read this aegis thanks mate for messing my day up,. u must think al of us are brainless as well as 888 does mate am ashamed of u thinking this is good for all its good for 5 percent of the site and i don't just mean the forums i mean every member who plays on all the skins

Tot10ham - ever heard of the phrase - DON'T SHOOT THE MESSENGER?

This scheme is the replacement of the $100k, not the sum total of all tournaments at 888!  There will be plenty that appeal to those with lower bank rolls unable to buy-in directly to any of these games.  Incidently, who has said that there won't be sats to these games?

Additionally - have you actually seen the reward system yet?  I am sure many would disagree with your notion that the rewards system is a 'waste of time' - in fact, many have craved such a system since day dot!

Please, this is a big issue here. Let's think before ranting and not let emotion dictate our posts.

Constructive thoughts are the way forward.
