a real bum-out of an email from the party VIP for me
 

Dear [censored] Gay Avatar Thug,

Thank you for your email.

To clarify the matter regarding your bonus, I would like to confirm
that the qualifying period for the accumulation of points is actually the
15 - 30 November. To date you have earned 1032 regular points towards
your target of 40,000 points. You can check your accumulated points
through the 'My Account' section of the website.

The bonus will be paid to your account within the first few days of
December. Obviously the more points you accumulate, the better. This will
be taken into consideration month on month for your next bonus offer.

Please remember that the points you earn must be regular points, as
bonus points do not count towards this bonus. If you would like further
information on which games to play to earn the regular points, you can
check the following link:

I hope this has answered your query. Should you have any other
questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at 'vip@partypoker.com'.

Kind Regards

Louise
