Someone in the other thread suggested making it easier to switch seats. Any chance of this happening?

At some point I think we will introduce an 'easy seating' method for Sit&Gos. You tell it what you want to play and it auto seats you into the next available. Or you can still open a table and pick your seat.

How about for cash players already at a table? Currently you have to leave the table and re-open it to change your seat, a "seat change" button like in a real casino would be great.

This is something I have approached the tech guys with many times over the years. Apparently it really is a nightmare programing issue. Do any other sites offer this feature?

Party Guy,

Whats going on with everyone's current party points and your structure for earning them? Is there going to be a restructuring of how to earn points? Can I use my old points in the new store? Thanks.

Dear Party Poker,

On the other thread someone posted that Poker & the Casino will be combining. Will this be true for PartyBingo also? I haven't joined Bingo yet, but have been thinking about it.

(ok guys you can stop laughing at me now, I'm an old lady who enjoys bingo sometimes!)

PartyPoker,

Any chance you could get the blinds correct for when 2 players are sat?

Everyone here is having trouble getting bounced out of the My Account section of the website.

You may or may not be aware: this was a HUGE problem with the old Party affiliate website, before they fixed it...hopefully this is just a temporary thing.

It is being corrected as we speak (or type).

Mr. Party,

Thanks for answering all our questions and kudos to party for finally having a presence on this site (I sincerely hope you stick around after the upgrade is complete and become a regular answering day to day questions, etc).

Apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere, but are you planning to overhaul your party points structure? For example, many of us would like to see 6-max tables getting a higher point/raked hand ratio than full tables because we're contributing a higher amount of rake/player so (for example) if a standard 2/4 table would get 6 points/20 raked hands is it too much to ask that 2/4 6-max'ers get 8-10 points/20 raked hands. I also know there are many who would like to see an overhaul for the NL games, although I don't play NL at the moment and am more interested in 6-max points.

Thanks,
J

It's close! This was a major release. Not just from a front end (what you see) but also a complete back end release.

Will there be more options for multi-table SNG's?
