Re: Newbie question for Party VIPs
just to clarify:
they only have one dart-board. It's a really big dart-board with lots of different responses such as points, MGR or rake (given what day and hour you call) but it is only just one dart-board. You don't want to be heading across it to get a coffee-refill at the top of the hour when all the different C/S reps are required to throw their 'policy change darts' at it.

Re: Newbie question for Party VIPs
[ QUOTE ]
Obviously, doing 18,000 hands at 0.5/1.00 as opposed to doing 10,000 hands at 3.00/6.00, Party prefers to invite the player into the VIP club doing the 10,000 hands at 3.00/6.00 even if rake is "probably similar" because...... who-knows-why! My 2 cents... * CalvinTy [/ QUOTE ] Well since the high volume players keep the games going, maybe they think it's more important to keep the higher limits running smoothly than the lower ones. I don't agree, but that might be their rationale.

Re: Newbie question for Party VIPs
[ QUOTE ]
it appears they might be upping the requirements if you play lower. Seems weird...but $1k at .5/1 might not be enough. They might tell you that "at your limits" you still need to play more. Which is totally stupid since MGR of $1k = MGR of $1k regardless of what limit you are at. But this appears to be a factor they consider. [/ QUOTE ] Why can' they just lay it out so everyone knows and there is no guessing game? Play 50/1 you must generate X mgr play 1/2 you must generate Y mgr...and so on....why does everything have to be so difficult with these guys?

Re: Newbie question for Party VIPs
I signed up at Party at the end of December and had about $2k MGR for January...I emailed them yesterday to ask what exactly was required for VIP status and they replied by welcoming me to the VIP club...

Re: Newbie question for Party VIPs
[ QUOTE ]
The rake is worse at the lower levels so why wouldnt party want more players there? [/ QUOTE ] It's proportionately worse, sure, but it's less $$$$. Party don't care how many "BB/100" they make in rake. They care about money. I'd be pretty confident the reason it's harder to be a VIP at low stakes is precisely that they want to incentivize the $10/20 and up players to play lots and keep those games buzzing, and that they don't think it's so worthwhile for low stakes where the player pool seems to be endless.
