The 5k krillroll had it's prize pool silently cut by 25%. Looks like the 20k, 75k, and 150ks all have a 1BTC prizepool which I believe is an even deeper cut.
Trouble trouble trouble.

I don't think that proves the site is in trouble. Traffic is about the same as it's always been on the new SWC.

would be nice if there was some way to encourage playing currently... the tables are pretty dry. i know other sites are doing freerolls for players that play x number of hands on that day. maybe something if you earn x amount of krill you qualify for a nightly/weekly tourney.

I don't think that proves the site is in trouble. Traffic is about the same as it's always been on the new SWC. Of course it does. They sold the customers something (pay us X rake lifetime, get Y rewards) and have now reneged on the deal. You don't do that to your customers unless you are in trouble. The fact that there has been no growth is a pretty big problem as the new owner has come in this thread in the past and claimed that he makes no money from the site.

Seals have sat idle well others sites set up shop, now they are falling behind and will not be able to compete against poker/sports sites. Its done because it refused to adapt. People will google and see past issues and move on. To bad.

Does anyone know if they have released a new Android app or if they are planning to in the near future? I really loved playing on my phone back before Seals with Clubs was taken over by SwC. I haven't played poker for bitcoin since the ownership transfer, and the discontinuation of the Android app.

They have not yet released an Android app. It is supposedly in the works, but there is no firm ETA. If you had an e-mail connected to your account on the old site, you can recover it if you e-mail support@swcpoker.eu and get your krill and account name transferred to the new site.

Well I would think the site earns about 18 bitcoins in rake each week if I had to take an educated guess. Then between the leaderboard promo and the freerolls/overkrills they give back around 3 or 4 bitcoins. Without further software development, how is the site not making money? All they do is process withdrawals.

Thanks for letting me know that. I don't know if I had any krill in my old account or not, but I'll try to login and see if they can transfer my old account over at least. I really hope they release an Android app soon, it's the only way I like to play.

The krillrolls have always been subject to change no one promised you they would be there to perpetuaty. The slashed all the other krillrolls not surprising that the 5k was cut as well.

If you read the thing that I said (that you quoted), that's my problem. They have all been cut which is indicative of a problem. If they wanted to remove them and replace them with a suitable alternative that rewards recent players instead of grandfathered players, that would be one thing but just reducing the payouts across the board with no announcement or explanation is a big issue.

I get you are pissed but its subject to change ath whim with no explanation from site as it has always been. If they cut the rakeback after peops krilled up then I could see storming the castle. The ring traffic is pretty sparse overall so it really isn't surprising that they cut back the krillrools. It has always been at the sites discretion in regard to freerools though.

The problem is, I don't think you get why I'm pissed. I'm not pissed because my equity dropped by a handful of pennies, I'm pissed because promising one thing and then taking it away with no communication is a sign of major issues with the site.

Im pissed cause removed me from krillroll as sitout when had shit to do haha. I do get why you are pissed but as I explained and as was explained to me krillrollss are subject to change at any time and have in the past without explanation. The site does not need to give an explanation as to why they are cutting back freerolls though the answer is probably obvious to anyone.

I feel like you agree with when I was saying initially, which is that the site is in serious trouble. Glad we're on the same page.

If seals is not having issues then they would be expanding. Failure to do so points to issues they are unwilling or unable to fix. Really no other way to read it, even if you are a fan boy.
