Most sheeple, maybe.  But anyway, obviously this is my opinion.  For me it's a little bit ironic the combination of the "no dox/anonymity/freedom" ethos espoused by the team here and then a lock-in to a proprietary, non-free, spyware OS where some company has ROOT control of your computer and goodluck with any privacy.  I used to have so much fun on the old-seals so I'm also terribly butt-hurt by simply not being allowed to try out the new site.

Jesus, can we shut up about this already.  They were forced to switch to software still under development, in a hurry, under suboptimal conditions.  They say they will work on other platforms, and I'm sure they will, but it won't be instant.

I agree, if they don't want to install windows then they can still play by getting a cheap VPS and connect to it by RDP.

Ok, @Scilian, I think I'll go ahead and shutup about this when I can start playing again.  Until then, I've really got not motivation to "shut up" and every motivation to keep the issue in the forefront.

@wwwin: Lets say that I don't want to "install windows", you want me to buy a virtual windows server or something?  Isn't that even more of a lol than just installing a virtualization software locally?  That sounds absolutely crazy on two accounts: (1) who would pay to rent spyware that MS corp controls, ie Windows? That is, I'm kinda shocked that this even exists.  (2) You want me to rent Windows to play poker on seals with clubs?

Was playing and all of a sudden my cards disappear and I kept getting dealt hands and couldn't see my cards lol.

When something like this happens you should go to "Force Reconnect" under the "Help" tab.

4 minute levels on non-freeroll OFC/p games is pretty bad.  Needs to be 8 minutes minimum, 10 would prob be better.

There should be a mix of slow, normal, turbo and super turbo type games.  Some people like fast tournaments and don't like sitting around 8 hours for a 5 chip tournament.  Some people want hours of play for their money.

4 minutes is definitely turbo though.  I just played one of these (freeroll) and there was basically one hand at the final table.

Oh I agree, but even a turbo MTT should take > an hour.

Also a note: the payout structure/no H4h on these OFC MTTs is pretty bad.  A shortstack on the bubble can stall ~5 min/hand.

Basically have your old account linked to an email on the old site.
Then on the new site after some time, hit forgot password with the old username details and it will send you a request to change your password

The levels on the new MTT seem to be jumping much faster than before.

[penta]

any ETA on higher stakes coming? 10/20 - 50/100 ?
also bitcointalk link on the webpage should link to this thread not the old one, needs updating.

Not really, I somehow like the new structure better. The previous one was actually a bit too slow. The speed is just perfect imo.

Cardroom manager Glitch just put up a yummy MTT menu for the next few days.

highlights:

-- peppered with 5 chip freerolls in many different disciplines as well as the good 'ole 2 card holdy
-- the 'ole 20 Chip 1k GTD! will take the name of the "little BTC" and be 25 chips to get in and 1k GTD'd
-- this Sunday we'll do a "Medium BTC" 100 chip / 4k GTD.  We're not quite ready for the BIG BTC but we will be soon.
-- light daily menu to persist each day, we'll start to fill this out over time, but note I have asked Glitch to go slow.

all feedback welcome.

[CryForMeSky]

all feedback welcome.

Non-hyper turbo OFC and HORSE please.

Also some plo/plo8/big O MTTs would be great.

[IrregardlessSWC]

Please let me get my Irregardless account.

[Micon]

Please let me get my Irregardless account.

1) update your email on sealswithclubs.eu if you want to retrieve your account
2) I know your account is in some stage of fuck, we'll help you man, you have to give us time at this critical starting point
3) we are receiving regular updates from SealsWithClubs on this matter.  [also please help spread the word to cash out Seals balances - they have announced an end date of May 5]

[IrregardlessSWC]

Thanks man. I have updated it several times over the past week or so.  Still says no registered e-mail for this account.  I know you are only getting updates on the e-mail addresses every few days or whatever, but I have seen every other person get their account restored while I wait.  I know it will happen, and I can still access SWC on another account, so I am alive, but I don't feel alive.  I am going to go make a new e-mail address now, and add/update that one to it on the old site.

Really like the "little" and "medium" BTC additions.

The first little BTC had 59 players and was put up without much warning and before a lot of players were back.  Any chance the guarantee gets bumped if we exceed that this week?

Also, do you have times set yet for the two?

[Phildo]

Is there a list of royalties and an explanation for sidepots (for lack of a better term) in ofc/p tournaments.

On this note, if you click help -> how to play (web) in the client you get a dead webpage. It's been fun so far.
