MICON, my mate Foxmulder still cannot get into his account. I know you guys have a lot on your head, but he is a real regular, always been good for seals, saving ppl from scams, etc. Please fix his account. TY MICON.



Also, in my timezone The Late DeepTurbo is basically the only one to play for me (and that mini smooth, but 5chip BI bit too low.) I have been promoting that tourney daily hard. 18 players right now. Basically: pls add some "night tournaments" and ill try to promote in lobby. BI 20 - 50 or smth. Maybe a 10 chip rebuy? (prolly turbo cuz its night) Should have some GTD, but especially with rebuy we should be able to reach it.

Here's a question for you: how hard would it be to point the old sealswithclubs app to the new domain?  Sure, it's not the "new software" and all that, but for those of us who just want tojump in and degen a while, the old android app did the job just fine.  Eventually you can make a new android app, but is there some technical barrier to allowing play on the old app in the meantime?

I think they're using completely new server side stuff as well as a new client. So it's not just a case of pointing the old app at the new domain.

You're probably right.  It would be nice to hear it from Micon and his team tho.  In any case, I still wonder how much code they might be able to reuse between the old and new protocols.

1)  Need to nail down connectivity and test it for days and days without fail before I'm comfortable expanding the MTT schedule. I could likely make more bitcoins in the near future by filling out the schedule, but the product I want to offer isn't quite ready yet.  The product I want to offer is seemless connectivity, and we aren't there yet.  Important to be honest about that IMO.

2)  Foxmulder - have him mail me personally micon@swcpoker.eu and I'll help him recover his account.

3)  Any issue with your SwC Poker account please mail support@swcpoker.eu

The Late Deep is the only tournament I play right now other than the two on Sundays.  Like Nico said it is growing, and a small bump in the 350 GTD might help.

Would be really nice to have more, even if it were just one more nightly... but I will be patient and defer to Micon's judgement for now. 

I do think adding back the "Big 5" should be high on the list though, with something like a 200 GTD.  Even if I wouldn't personally play it, it'd be the perfect tournament to give new players a taste at a decent sized pool for only 5 chips.  Might convert some in to buying their first small amount of bitcoin.

And it's small enough that myself/others/SwC could give away 5 chip entries.

I won about 10 chips from 0.25-1 chips already 3 times, but every time I lost that 10 chips in an attempt to double them... It might seem that the system doesn't let me win 20 chips that is a minimum withdrawal amount. I don't blame the RNG, but it's quite strange.

Withdrawing should require Google Authenticate, for those of us who have it enabled.  Just requiring the password is not secure enough.

Decent turnout today, nice guys 24 players at a midnight tourney pretty good

Changes to the Consumer Protection Act and laws governing gambling so that Internet service providers must block access to online gambling websites on a list of “illegal sites” created by Loto-Québec
http://montrealgazette.com/news/quebec/2015-quebec-budget-highlights

Please devote a few spare brain cells to a technical solution to this, in case the idea spreads to other jurisdictions.  I would suggest a TOR-like bouncing of the client-server communication so that blocking of the domain would not be effective.  Would need to keep latency to a minimum.

Do you always get rakeback on tournaments?

[Tongkar]

Do you always get rakeback on tournaments?

There is no rakeback in tournaments at all. There is only a 5% fee of the total amount for the entry into the tournament. So if the buy in is 9.50 chips it will cost you ten chips to buy in.

[wayshegoes]

Micon cleaned us all out in microstakes!

This is the world's tiniest bug and it's probably silly to complain about it at this point, but when you have save username and password checked the focus of the login box ought to default to the GAuth field rather than username.

the rakeback only applies in the ring games.

You do get krill for tournies.

And yes the rake is for tournaments is less than anywhere else.  It is ~1/2 of many sites even "btc" ones.

What's the word on android dev?  I think that Micon said it was about 4 weeks out about 2 weeks ago.  I'd love to hear if there's any update on that eta?
