Looks like FCP got into a little trouble with Ongame today, and hints of a new Network (excerpted from
a post by FCP's poker mgr on the FCP forum)...
As some of you have already experienced, FCP’s poker software is currently unavailable for real money play. Full Contact Poker is working on a technical issue related to its compliance with Ongame’s block of US players. We plan to have our poker software back up and available to Non-US players by Tuesday or Wednesday.
On a separate note, Full Contact Poker’s transition from the Ongame Network to its new poker software provider has been delayed with a new launch plan.
It has taken a few of the other large poker sites longer than expected to separate from their previous networks, causing this new poker network to delay its official launch until December. However, FCP has been granted the opportunity to transition ALL of its players (along with a few other poker sites) onto a Beta version of this new poker network software within a week or two. During this Beta period, the number of players on the network will be a lot smaller than you will find in December, which means fewer ring games and smaller tournaments, but we encourage you to use this time to play on the new network and to let us know what playing features and functions you would like to see added or modified.
Until FCP transitions all of its players to the new network for this Beta opportunity, Non-US players will still be able to play through the Ongame network.
We wish we could tell you more specifics about the new network, like the name and the other sites joining FCP, but we must wait until the official announcement is made public by the network itself.
