Hi John -
In fact, we do host a series of special events for the 2+2 crowd -
the "King of the Zoo" events. I don't think we can start doing all kinds
of different events for the various subgroups within 2+2. I would
encourage you, though, to sign up for the KOTZ events.

Best regards,
Lee Jones

I find that surprising...try to get a hold of David in management, I'm not sure if Lee has taken over his position or not, (maybe Lee's word is final) but I've organized a few 2+2 tournaments and the person I spoke with was named David. management@pokerstars.com (put ATTN: David as the subject)

They probably don't see much value in putting the work into organizing something they're only going to make ~$10-20 in rake (I think you guys play $10+1 right?). Try to spin it as a long term commitment (example: twice a week for the next two months as a trial period or something). This gives them a little more money to work with and might make it more plausible from their end. If you can consistently fill the tournament (which shouldn't be a problem) you might be able to make it a long term agreement.

Good luck,
Jason

Guessed as much. Like I said, prev answer was "not only no but...." I fail to understand why, it's an electronic table. You aren't really using up a real table that could be at 50/100 limit ring or $10 min Blackjack making more money as in a B&M casino. Prob take somebody 5 minutes to give it a name and password. Stars cust service is usually so much better than party, but they apparently just don't get this one. I would think encouraging 2+2ers to use their service would be good policy, but on second thought, the ones they really want are lots and lots of fish. Oh well, I kind of like the current format. And listening to McMelchoir explain it all to the people not from our group is worth the price of admission.
