New Party Points System

[notreallymyname]

Obviously only the basic ("standard") points count towards attaining the different levels. It's not _that_ easy.

i love how party puts this on their website:

"The PartyPoints program is a one of its kind, tiered loyalty program that earns you PartyPoints for the real money you wager at any of the participating web properties."

when clearly the entire program is a direct rip off from stars. no complaints of course, they picked a good rewards structure to steal

This is so bizarre. Party has changed the wording on this since yesterday.

Yesterday in the Details section about the Aces Club it said "It doesn't get any better than this", which was odd considering it clearly DOES get better than this. The wording has now been changed to: "The ultimate package - it’s VIP** all the way" etc.

So yesterday it didn't get any better than Aces, but today it does, but they still can't tell us what that means. I mean, wtf??

So, PP get their new points system ready for the update, and then somehow make a balls of the explanation? Months of work and thought no doubt went into it and yet they make such a bags of it? Totally bizarre.

And still the Deuces Club is like a big secret. Just totally baffling. I mean, if people know they can move up from Aces, why not give them the incentive to do that? Why the smoke and mirrors??

I emailed them asking about the Deuces Club and still no reply. Ho hum.



** This also throws up an additional confusion about the distinction between VIP and Aces Club, but that's a muddle too far for me.

so I log on today and there's a big "DEUCE" card of which I am now a member (wooohooo!) I click on the pic and it explains the points system A,K,Q,J.....no Deuce! The only thing I can think of is that A is the highest level (4 times multiplier) and Deuce is just A plus VIP stautus? i.e still only 4 times multi but you get a personal host and other stuff?

BTW on my first day in this new system, I'm down 50BB. Can anyone say Doomswitch?

I've seen some people refer to this in the SSNL Cheese thread and was surprised to not see it being discussed here. I can't login to Party from here: Does anyone have any details? What's changed? Is it good?

Did anyone check this? Is it limit or NL, 6max or FR?

I made a quick calc (might be wrong) for NL200 6max and it's about 7.24% rb for aces level.

[lotus guardian]

Where did you guys hear that dueces gets a 7.5 multiplier? This is the response I got from party:

Dear xxxx,

Thanks for contacting us.

As stated on the website the new PartyPoints program has 4 levels,
Jacks, Queens, Kings and Aces.

However players who earn more than 20,000 standard points in a quarter
would be eligible for special benefits. They will be personally informed
of the details once they earn the required points.

[Rainclouds]

Lotus: as far as I checked, it is for 6max NL.
Of course, The actual RB equivalent percentage depends on playing styles: a LAG pays more rake per 100 hands than a TAG, but the number of partypoints are the same for everyone at the table. So you are probably a LAG, am I right? For me the chart is about right.
