Default Re: Official *Party Screwed Monster Seat Holders* Thread

Me too, but I sent this email anyway

Subject: I expect additional compensation credited for my Party Monster Seats
To: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]

To all concerned:

I would like to make it very clear that I expect Party to deposit the additional $5,000 - $6,000 in value I SHOULD have received for my Monster seats, but did not.

I was paid only $1,800 for my 1 Final, 5 x $350 for 5 Monthly seats, and 2 x $100 for my Weekly seats for a total of $3,751.

I SHOULD have received approximately $9,100 (assuming 10,000 outstanding weekly seats -> $5,000 Grand Final seat value), so I am owed about $5,350.

Thank you

I made sure to ask the guya nd he told me there was no time limit...Those refunds would be ther euntil I choose to make it so.

Even if you accept their cash values, it wouldnt be hard for them to add on what you're still owed. Theyre being major tools about this.

I will accept in a couple days if they don't get back to me....

I've sent 3 emails to different spots...the first one I got a reply from...

It basically said "We thank you for your concerns...however at this time the Monster tournament is untenable due to legislation. If you log in, you can convert, blah blah"....

My email had asked why the conversion was off. Figures.

I'm really confused.

I played a load of Monster tables, but that was it - I never signed up for any tournaments or anything like that.

Are players like me due anything? Or is our Monster rake gone?

There's nothing at My A/c Monster page.

Thanks.


On edit: I'm Euro so maybe the event is still running for us?

I want Party to go on the record as to how many weekly tickets are/were in the system. If the number is large enough -- like if there were 184,000 weekly seats out there -- then their payouts are "fair" at least in the sense that they're not holding any money back (even though it's obvious that the grand final tickets would have had an EV of much more than $1800 had we not been Fristed).

Somehow I doubt that they awarded anywhere near that many tickets.

Chomp, Event is shut down for everyone. You are due nothing as the way they did it. I still don't get why cash gamers weren't getting in on this. Even without any tourney skill whatsoever it was so profitable.

Whether or not you're morally due anything, you have less chance at money than we have at getting more money....Enjoy?

Note: WHen I ended that long phone call with them, I definitely ended it by saying Enjoy.

Screwed maybe, but, I got the seat for free for answering the 10 questions in the promo a while back (thanks 2+2'ers) and as I am Eurpean, I probably wouldn't have bothered staying up until 4am or whatever time it was on it. Works for me...

What's funny is that you could have registered for a weekly and blinded your way into a monthly seat while you slept.

It already was for the monthly...

Grand final: ( $14,405,786 Prize Pool / 8,000 players ) = $1,800.72 per player

[/ QUOTE ]

How can they use 8000 expected players but not use the expected prize pool. They claim to be using expected value, but if this tourney was not cancelled our finale seats would be worth atleast $30M-$5M/8000 = $3125

BOYCOTT PARTY!!!
