seriously. if they knew they were shutting down the servers an hour ago, why would they start up SNGs and MTTs?

maybe they only knew a couple minutes before the shut down that they were going to have to.

I'm sure they will give you your money back. They always do dont they?

aaarrrgghh!!!

MicroBob 10-08-2005 01:18 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
Indeed...usually when they have a server shutdown (5am is a common time for them to do this) they stop all the MTT's and SNG's well ahead of time.


Saturday afternoon in the U.S. and Saturday evening in Europe is NOT the ideal time for them to purposely have a shot-down....and the fact that they had all these tourneys going as well indicates that they obviously weren't planning on doing this too far ahead of time.
I would guess that something happened all of a sudden to require a shut-down.

The fact that they are announcing that they are going to be down for that many hours is a bit strange too.


Guess I just wasn't meant to play party ring-games today.

OK, from looking at the My Account Activity link from the websites, i find this:

I was in 12 SNGs @ $22 each. i think i had under 800 chips in each of them. My refunds are as follows:

27, 22, 24.22, 22,
27, 27, 27, 27,
22, 24.22, 24.22, 24.22

SO, overall, im pretty happy the servers crashed since i didnt have more than 800 chips in any SNG.

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
I hope someone from party can post here and say why they let all of us put money in MMT ans SNG then shut down.

I'm not really worried about getting my money back. I'm just not at all happy about sitting here staring at the monitor for four hours waiting to see if they restart the tourneys or just refund the money. Big difference.

They will not restart the tourneys. Thats like holding ppl hostage at their computers.

people in SNGS: dont worry about getting your money back, they do a good job of it. you will not get shafted.

KingMedicine 10-08-2005 01:24 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
check your account activity page on the website(s). mine clealy show refunds for the my SNGs.

if you were in an MTT, i dont know if they issued you a refund (i suspect they did on some pro rated basis), but for SNGs im guessing they refunded everyone.

10-08-2005 01:24 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
Great, was looking to sit down and finish the last 500 hands I needed to complete my bonus, looks like I'll have to find something else to waste my time with!

Jurollo 10-08-2005 01:29 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
how did you log onto my account on the web site, that seems down as well.

The worst thing about this is the only other site I have money in at this time is, for some reason...... Pacific.


AARRRRGGGGHHHHH. No No No, please don't force me to play there for the next 5 hours....

10-08-2005 01:31 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
I just read Eurobet's announcement, they say the ETA for the server to come back up is 5pm EST. WTF ARE WE GONNA DO for 4 HOURS!

cjs 10-08-2005 01:31 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!

i had no problem logging in thru the websites.

www.multipoker.com click My Account (enter name and pass), the click "Account Activity".

it's working fine for me still. not sure why it wouldnt be working for you. it was a slight laggish logging in, but not more than 10 seconds or so.

MicroBob 10-08-2005 01:33 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
on top of that....typically their estimates are optimistic.

Example: If they have a shut-down at 5am and say they will re-start at 7am...they frequently don't ACTUALLY re-start until 8:30 or so.

MelchyBeau 10-08-2005 01:44 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
I wonder why they would shut down on a saturday. I would imagine saturdays are one of thier most profitable days of the week.

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
If that's the case then I'm happy too. Whether it's chopped equally or pro-rated by stacks, I'm good.

MicroBob 10-08-2005 01:46 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
yes.

that goes to my theory that this shut-down was probably something that they needed to do kind of suddenly (for whatever reason).
I'm sure it wasn't planned too far in advance.

TheHammer24 10-08-2005 01:46 PM

Re: PARTY IS DOWN!!!
 
Why would they do this during a Saturday?

This smells a lot like one of those blackmail DDos attack deals that the Russian mafia pulls off here and there. I hope it's something else though.
