Not sure how many of these things have been stated already, but here's my list.

1. External links should open in the default browsers, not IE. (This has always been a problem)

2. When you search for a player and tables come up, sometimes double clicking on the tables doesn't open them. This usually only happens if you don't currently have any tables open.

3. For SNGs, I used to just let them stay open and keep running until they're finished so that I don't have to bother with emailed HHs. Now, it stops recording them as soon as I'm eliminated, and sometimes it doesn't record (in the file) that I won. I realized that you have stopped allowing observed HHs to be recorded (I assume because of datamining), but doing this doesn't make sense.

4. I think there's some sort of video memory leak. After playing all day, resizing, etc. I started having video card issues and had to restart my machine.

glad I took the day off

fix the software glitches so I can go back to 10-tabling with ease

mainly,
#1) don't crash 1 GB of ram
#2) have buttons that work
#3) work with the guys at multitablehelper (I cannot play more than 6 games without it)

otherwise, I might be looking at vacation time

Stars does this. It's my main gripe with them. After this downgrade, with no rake back and no VIP, why should I play on Party?

This is not a new problem.

A typical example occurs when the lobby is currently displaying 2/4 LHE tables. You search for a buddy and discover he is playing 1/2 LHE on Table 87223. You doubleclick the search result to open Table 87223 and it doesn't work.

The apparent problem is that your client doesn't know anything about Table 87223. If you were looking at 1/2 tables it would have the complete list of 1/2 tables and the click through would have worked. In fact if you had ever looked at 1/2 tables it would have worked because your client would still remember the list. Of course this assumes that Table 87223 already existed back then.

The most common form of the problem for me is when a buddy shows up at the limit I want, except he is playing at a Bad Beat Jackpot table. That's a separate place in the lobby and I rarely open it. As soon as I change the lobby to look at the BBJ tables and it refreshes, the click through in the search results starts to work.

The new release is different in that sometimes you get a misleading error message. It always used to be that nothing at all would happen, as if you had doubleclicked on something not meant to be clicked on.

Yeah, I actually meant to mark this as an old problem but forgot. I had never figured out exactly why it happened--only that if I opened one of them up, the others would usually follow, so thanks for the explaination.

It seems weird that two of these problems seem to be rather simple, old problems that still haven't gotten fixed.

How about CORRECT NL HU Blind Structure

NL 1 on 1 tables.

I have a widescreen notebook and use 1920x1200 resoulution. Everything seems out of place on the pp lobby. Things are overlapping, there's weird ghost images from other windows that get left as imprints on the lobby, and it just doesn't look right. I can post a screenshot if you want....but I think I've read other people having this same problem. Is there a way to fix this (lowering my resolution doesn't seem to help).

I have the same problem. I am not useing a notebook. I have tried everything including change of DPI. Nothing seems to help. Anyone help would be highly appriciated.

The buttons dont work well... this is pretty basic. Quite often I have to press it 3 times to get it to do the action I tell it to. The button does light up but then does nothing. This is a big problem for me as I dont like pressing a button 3 times intead of once.

I just want to say that I would also appreciate the option of turning off the sidebet att 21 sidebars in the poker table windows. I just play poker and they only clutter up the interface for me. Otherwise, I kinda like it.
