UB is doing some final testing tomorrow, here's a reprint of my post in the following thread for the deets on how u can nab some free seats: http://www.blackjacktournaments.com/bb/showthread.php?t=7110 reprint: UB is doing some final testing tomorrow to test the way prize payouts are awarded & we need a few players who are familiar with BJ tourneys to play along. Basically a few satellites running from about noon PT (3pm ET) til about 3ish PT (6ish ET) tomorrow afternoon, with the final 'event' giving away $100-$200 in free cash moolah. If you're available tomorrow for a bit & wanna play just PM me your UB screenname by 11 am PT tomorrow morning (2 pm ET) and i will have them register your names to the satellites in the UB TBJ lobby. Also, the more the merrier so if you wanna forward this to friends etc who know a thing or 2 about the game, no problemo, just get me their account names in time & i will register them too Gonna be some awesome news hitting next week, i'm excited !! -hd.
I want to play luckygem2 HD, saw your post on LVA too. I need 15 minutes grace on the 3pmET start. If you guys can work with that...I'd love to play. I see on the UB tourney postings a restricted game starting at 1800ET. If that's the case, it would totally work for me. Thanks.
I can't due to work schedule but judging from the cast of characters who ARE playing - maybe that's a good thing for me! Good luck to all, will be waiting for results.
I am hoping to need to be late into San Diego for something tonight...money is always a good excuse! see those who did sign-up later! ~sandy eggo (aka galtinel on UB)
not finding this UB screenname. maybe its BJ_Beauty or some other variant? As for everyone else, most names are loaded in now for 4 satellites, starting at 15:00 ET. Basically we're looking at how the payout logic awards seats to players who end up tied for position, among other things. Of course, feel free to post other feedback here afterwards if you notice anything else funky. rock on -- -hd.
Hollywood, I did notice a grammatical error in the pop-up window when we were waiting for players to finish...it was something like "waiting for player to finish games"...I should have screen-capped but wasn't thinking about it at the time. Also, for future rounds...if there's a way to unregister those of us who have won a seat for the final round...there were 3 of us at one table just now who have won seats, and we all took suicide bets/hits to get out of the game. Hope you are able to capture the data you are looking for. ~sandy
I did get a screen cap this time: "Congratulation you have reached 2nd round! Please wait until player finish their rounds." Reads like someone who doesn't know standard English wrote it.
Got busted in the "final event". Encounterd no hickups in the software. Lot of absent people in the qualifiers though. For me this is an ideal time to play. Thanks for the event, Hollywood Dave. I'm looking forward to the next tournaments.
Got knocked out in 12th place (semi-table). And with time to get to my event in San Diego, sadly....:laugh:
