Default Re: Some answers to the requests

[Lobby redesign is e]asily the most important thing you can do, other than rakeback. It's insane that I can't select "First Open Table" at a given limit. Having to join each table individually is a huge drawback to your software.

"First open table" is a hot button of mine, too. I assure you that it will stay at the top of my priority list until we have it.

As I mentioned before (and as I'm sure you all realize) our first priority is to make sure that the software is rock solid reliable, even as the site grows like a weed. In November of '03, we hit 10K players on the site at once - I remember because I have the screenshot to prove it. A week or two ago (less than two years later) we hit 70K players on the site at once. When the programming folks tell me that they have to work on scalability and reliability, I don't argue.

But I still remember my feature hot buttons and when they start discussing feature requests, I always bring 'em up.

Best regards,
