Default Re: Major Party Upgrade - Official Q&A thread. (#2.)

Will there be a lobby for SNGs with clear info on the payouts?

Will the MTT lobby display the current ranking of all the players?

Also, I think that concealing the rake with the combo buyin+entryfee does not seem to be customer-friendly.

Dear PartyPoker Rep:

Please comment on the issue of HHF files / aka the temp hand history files that used to get written to our hard drive that allowed us to collect stats on OBSERVED GAMES. We all noticed that they were no longer written to our computers in the Beta.

Was this a conscious decision by Party? They don't want us to be able to datamine observed hands anymore??

[/ QUOTE ]

FWIW, I don't mind not datamining, nearly as much as not being able to bring up a table and see my pt stats for it before I decide to join the waitlist. I imagine if there's no longer any way to do that, you're going to see a great deal of table hoping.

[/ QUOTE ]

Use a buddy list.

[/ QUOTE ]

I do. But that's no substitute for seeing table stats.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sure it is. Find a buddy sit to his left. I guess this might not be enough if you're playing full ring, but any table where you're sitting next to a 60/5'er in 6-max can't be that bad.

1) There will be no lobby for the 1-Table Sit&Gos. This had been discussed and the feedback we got was that players didnt want to take two steps to get into a Sit&Go.

2) The Multi-Table Tournament lobby is being redesign for a future release. It's cool.

3) Putting the amounts together was not about hiding the fee. The fee is clearly displayed on the buy-in screen and in the lobby (Multis). This was simply a move to make the lists cleaner and easier to promote. The fee amounts have not changed.

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

Fair enough--thanks for the response. However, will we see the payouts for a given SNG?

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.

After this one, I'll stop clogging up the thread. Does Party have plans to spread additonal games on the horizon? (e.g. razz, or 2-7)

The payouts are displayed on the buy-in screen. Possibly the payouts might be added the the table in the future table redesign.
