Why are Foundation Home Events limited to 150 players?

[Garth Kay]

No it's not.

There is no way in the world we are adding more free roll events to our fixture in timeslots that regular venues will operate in.

Also there is no way to restrict players to only one freeroll at a time in any format.

Perhaps an idea is to simply create one, 100 player freeroll for each state (SA and VIC). There is a small increase in players playing (50) and points for each event will be more comparable to live events.

This would also make it easier for players to see how they compare on leaderboards with players from their state only, and easier for the 888pl when working out who qualifies for each states 25k semi-final.

We already have separate GF qualifiers for each state, why not extend this to the other games as well? This seems an easy solution in my opinion.

The only issue there is there is no way to restrict by state. It is too hard. So you can still have Vic's playing in a SA freeroll simply for kicks.

My suggestion is to deposit or reload and start playing a few of the challenge events. A $2 tourney with 100 players would be nice to see.

Players now have a certain tracking somethingorother to ascertain that they are 888pl players and not other random aussies, is it hard for players to be assigned a similar trackingsomethingorother that states what state they are from??


I personally dont thing there would be a problem with people reg'ing for a different states freeroll games, if it is made clear that extra players would not qualify for the semi-final and that all points earned in another states freeroll would be removed from their tally. I dont know how hard this would be to do??

Immediately places suggestion in TOO HARD basket.

Of course they can. Sites restrict players now to 1 per week/day etc. for certain tournaments. Same premise applies.

I will double check but I have asked this question already and was told no.

My initial thought was to restrict 888PL players to 10 free rolls per week.

[Scotty]

I assume then, they're saying they don't have that facility set up.

Yes sir.
