Stars - FPP bugette

[Kablooie]

So i was playing one of the new FPP WCOOP 500FPP satellite tournaments last night, and to my mild annoyance got booted out on the bubble thereby winning a mere 3000 FPP points. [Note to self, must work on late tournament play.]

A minute or so later, there was an email from stars telling me that i had just cleared my WCOOP bonus, which was a little strange since before the tournie i'd had some 550 points to go. At which point it dawned on me what must have happened.

So if anybody has a bunch of stars bonuses stacked up, you may want to try entering the FPP tournaments and deliberately busting out on the bubble, to see if you get an insta-clear. I suspect this is a bug with the new tournaments that award according to the number of players in the tournie, since if you take the FPP's rather than the satellite seat on one of these it definitely doesn't count against your bonus.
