    LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL at that leaderboard that's just been put up.

    I suggest that's an old leaderboard from the previous big deal promo. what makes me think this? well I haven't entered the code and also I haven't played any poker in over a week yet im showing in 2nd
  • edited July 2013
    Are you sure this is right, i have't put in code and really dont think ive played more than some below me. 
  • edited July 2013
    Is that correct?

    How has evilpingu gone from 4th to 40th in 1 day? He played a fair bit yesterday as he was on my tables for most of it.
  • edited July 2013
    This leader board can't be correct I've played over 15 hours in last two days! And yet still to see my name on here in higher table put code in twice! Sort it out sky!!
  • edited July 2013
    Absolutely redic imo.

    Every time a promotion comes round like this, the tables are screwed to hell and back. This must be the 5th/6th promo this year alone that incorrect tables have been posted. Really messes with your head about the legitimacy of the results at the end of the week if this kinda thing keeps happening.
    I love what you do Lee, and it's not personal, but whoever's doing these tables needs to double, triple, and quadruple check from now on. It's crushing any remaining credibility SkyReps have in posts+promos, and makes following these promotions borderline pointless.

    Havn't even enterred the code yet, and JoeySmooth at the top, has barely been played at all. Not to mention I havn't even seen the likes of Scotty, Flexy, UEA, or babyface once yet.

    The forum catchphrase - Cujusmodi de Sky.

    Should post no. of hands or its pointless. Even to the nearest 500 or something... Can we even trust this is accurate lol... would act as much more of an incentive aswell to see what we need to do rather than batting in the dark vs a robot

    @RyanC7 - Unfortunately due to responsible gambling laws we are not able to post the number of hands.
  • edited July 2013
    Who wants to sit in for 7 days in the middle of the summer playing for at least a few hours a day mult-tabling

    At least this promo cuts out the lower staked players which rules me out anyway

    Seen other threads and think the promo money could be best spent elsewhere imo

    When you have no job what else you gonna do on a tuesday afternoon when the sun having the day off. This promo also suits lower stakes players better as it is on hands played. 5000 hands at 4nl > 4999 hands at 50nl. Or at least thats the understanding I have

    why it's not p/l. it's a volume challenge, approx numbers should be fine. 

    + just remove the stupidity of making it how many hands you are dealt in, do it on 'no of hands won' or w/e SO YOU CANT JUST FOLD AS IT RUINS THE GAMES AND YOU KEEP DOING THIS SILLYNESS

    if you only entered the code today then you wont show up til tomorrows table. the count is taken at midnight so if you hadn't opted in at that time you wouldn't be quoted when todays table was compiled.

    This.

    Nits shouldn't be rewarded. Better for recs. if you reward those who win the most hands, or at the very least, how many flops you see, etc.

    Encouraging people to win pots/see flops creates action and is more fun for the recreational players, while also generating extra rake for the site.

    Absolute no-brainer imo.

    Paddy Power run casino comp point leaderboard promos and publish the points along the way, so I'd be interested to see the law cited. If you can publish them it would undoubtedly turn the grinders into sleep-deprived zombies, and discourage the recs who don't currently appreciate the volume required. Probably rake positive and a reward to the big grinders, which I'm guessing is the intention of the promo anyway.

    At the very least at the end of the whole promo, once its ended and all verified show just like leaderboard in table format the number of hands with the username next to it, then we will see who leads then we can see the 100% correct leaderboard with the number of hands played the money will be legitly won! But thats my honest opoion promo is a promo were all here to make £££

    These competitions always disadvantage people who find it difficult to multi table. I've tried and I just can't do it, plus I've only got a 15" laptop and not half a dozen linked monitors. How am I supposed to compete against somebody who's playing 16 tables? I've not even bothered to enter the code this time. Why not have a comp where 'magic' hands are announced randomly throughout the day, where the winner gets a spot prize and give the little guy a shot at winning some cash?
