I should mention that Scottyy got back to me via email and he brought up some very good points. I can see how the new program will motivate a lot of players

Really? How? I can't really see it "motivating" anyone. The players that are already Supernova don't need motivation, they pro's and are going to continue to play as frequently.

1 Million VPP's is unrealistic for the vast majority of players. Seriously, just making Platinum every month is demanding to all but the people playing for a living. If Stars believes this makes up the majority of their player base, or the players you want to attract as opponents then I concedede.

However, open up the client and look at where the most games are. 3/6 Limit and lower account for maybe 2/3 of the players by my estimate.

To make Platinum at 2/4 limit, I have to play about 22,000 hands a month. Thats about 700 hands a day. Playing 4 tables, thats a minimum of 3 1/2 hours a day. Hardly the definition of a casual or recreational player which I claim to be.

That level of play gets me to 'Nova by the end of the year, and Stars has NOT EVEN COME CLOSE to creating an incentive for me to maybe double my time or add more tables to get to 200k.

I am willing to believe there are a hell of a lot more players like myself then ones making 500 VPPS a year, to push for a million.

So, where is the incentive?
