Feedback on last Titan game

[hojediade]

Hey gang,

I noticed we have some troubles with the Euro league games as they ain't starting always at the same time, usually Titan is to start one hour before PKR which is not comfortable for us all, as lot of us missed the start of the last game.
I was lucky enough checking out at 8:30pm (own local time frame) as the game already started. But some appears after first break with only 100 chips left and couldn't defend their money which wasn't fair, IMO.
I for myself, prefer the time start to be the same as PKR, but i don't know if this can be done, or if everybody's agreed.

To add to this, we had a well-known banned player from Romania who manage to finish ITM, and maybe 1st.
Don't know if it could help, but i know that Titan allowed forums to send them an allowed list of players, maybe they would allowed 4kp to create a blacklist of non-admitted players.

Cheers

Hoj.

I got in touch with Titan about the banned player and the reply although polite more or less said mind your own fucking business

I think an allowed list of players is the best way to go. I don't know how difficult this would be to set up. I know another forum that was plagued with password thieves at Full Tilt. They set up the 'allowed list' system of players and it stopped the thieves gatecrashing games. Definitely a good idea - if Titan will play ball.

hi

the player issue is being dealt with - I'd been told the last couple of times that the info had been passed on and was being handled - as far as we knew it had been handed down the system but didnt get finished off

Titan have said they will definately deal with it 100% this time

in terms of the time - The titan games are at the same time as each other through the season (but different time from PKR) basically it gets really confusinf what time anyone is on and if they do or dont change for BST

if its any help the games at each site will be at the same times as the previous game at the same site through the season

I don't know if i wrote this already somewhere but i know a site that give opportunity for forums or sites to add countdown clocks for free and that could be used as a time reminder to insert in the League Password traditional thread. An interesting tool IMO, as you can also program it to release a message or a pw, prior to the game. This way you wouldn't have to bother yourself at each game and could planned pw apparition earlier in the month, which could help for your own organisation.

I post the link below, feel free to erased it if not suited your willings Bob.

Regards on player issue, we'll have to cross fingers and see.

> I think an allowed list of players is the best way to go.

I suggested it yesterday too. I play in some tourneys on Titan and I never saw invading players as the tournaments can play players from allowed lists only.

One thing we did learn yesterday, Crazy lies as easily as anyone I have ever seen. I don't believe he has multiple accounts here, someone is giving him the password. Either go with an allow list or have a sign up thread and PM the password only to those on it. I know from past experience that Titan or any other site don't give a crap about password problems from forums, understandable as it's not their problem. BettyScumbag finished 2nd, really pisses me off as she isn't even a member.

hi

I know this has been covered before but lists are a total nightmare - we ran them on pacific games - no body gets their act together before the deadline ... and then posts or PM's at the last minute ... and there are always a few that get arsey about it too

the two accounts are already suposed to have been banned from our games by titan and their accounts were suposedly being looked at blah blah ... they havent and this is the 3rd time Ive tried with titan on this

as for the accounts on 4kingpoker - thats being dealt with

the biggest problem with lists is that although the buy-in numbers are small we still end up with a much longer list of people who plan to play etc etc - and the last minute issue is always an issue

I'll talk with Titan on this - but doing lists is a pain and it also restricts any kind of growth in the games ... eg. if someone actually signsup via our links and joins forum and posts etc then isnt able to play - then really thats excluded a player who is probably one of the most entitled to play

the frustrating thing is on other sites I'd have no problem getting specific problem players removed from being allowed in our games (which is alot easier than barring everyone then letting in a list)

this issue could easily be solved if titan took action on 2 accounts - simple end of problem - or bar them from our games at least

thats just my thoughts on things at the moment

Feel free to delete links Bob, i wanted you to check the forum and why not take some contacts with them to see what they could do about it, or find some way to know who is that guy. I can also help if you ever need some french people talking.[/SIZE][/FONT]

The iPoker software that Titan uses used to have an allow list function. I assume they still do since they have restricted tournaments, but I don't know that for a fact. I can kind of understand that poker sites aren't keen on helping forums to deal with pw violators since it's not their fault. And updating lists can be a pain if it has to be done more than occasionally.

While using lists would make it difficult to let deserving people play right away, in reality, how many would actually be affected by using a list that only gets updated once a month? And if that were made clear, I suspect anyone reasonable would understand they will only be added to the list the next time it's updated.
