All that Supernovas at the 200K VPP level get now that is different to last year is a $2K bonus that you have to pay almost $1K in FPPs to get...

The SN program was already pretty good. Now you're complaing that you're "only" getting $2000 more?

What did you guys expect? Pokerstars is still a company trying to make money. Giving away $2000 to every player playing the amount you do is not something small. Its pretty much like getting a $2000 XMas bonus...if you worked a real job and got that would you really complain?

I think ryan's issue is more the distribution of the rewards seeming topheavy than being greedy.

But of course, the system can be topheavy becaus in absolute $ terms, stars won't be giving away that much to sn elites because there simply won't be many. In terms of the aggregate cost/value per level I think Stars did make the system pretty fair. I imagine that based on their assumptions about how many wil reach each level, the total amounts they are distributing to high end/middle end/low end novas is balanced.
