Dont you think.... (PS Sunday Main Event Sat Idea)

Jurollo · #1 08-18-2005, 03:23 PM

Since the already existing sats have apparently reached saturation for the moment dont you think offering double shootouts for seats may bring some more cheapskates/fish into the weekly events? These things ALWAYS fill and could be offered in SNG form as well, seems like an easy way to get at even more people into the big one each week.

Jutin, at 3500 a week... do we really need more fish?

Jurollo · #3 08-18-2005, 05:12 PM

It will eventually hit 4000, I just think PS needs to add more sats for the event to continue to grow, otherwise I will guess it has hit a plateau for a while.

It's actually on a downward slope over the past few weeks.

And, don't you think they have enough sats for it?

The more different opportunities they put out there for players the better, larger selection isn't a bad thing.

I guess, but it definitley isn't a must do thing.

The problem with this is, from Stars' point of view, is that a double shootout is like running 10 SNG's and only producing one winner. That seems like a big waste of bandwidth, and player time, that they could be spending entering 35MTT's at a time.

BUT. I'd play in them. =)

This was the conclusion I came to while thinking about this as well. And no JJ they definately are NOT a must, just something that would be a fun/different way to get into the big weekly event, maybe only run them for the $500 or something. This is more a personal preference because I generally kill Shootouts

they could have a flat-payout multiple winner DS though.
