The OPEN INTERNET CHALLENGE (OIC) is open for registration! *LONG*

[Yobz]

I signed up yesterday and deposited the $50. I registered with the oic link and everything. I played today and am up to $101 (just finished .5/1, moving to 1/2 very shortly). The problem is that when i logon to the OIC it says I have $0 (it was update at noon today and I had played a little last night, was up to $55 or so then). It puts me at the bottom of the list because of this [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Any clue how long it takes to be added to the list?

[Yobz]

Any advice or anything? At least direct me to where I should be looking... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

This is probably not the best place to post this, but:
Went back down below 50 and have to restart with .5/1...I just want to make sure I have bankruptcy insurance...since my name doesnt appear on the list yet [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Im still searching for this answer. Should I assume that when you sign up, you declare your "other" money, it is done? How about if you receive a bonus in your account? How do you declare it separate?

If you receive a bonus in your account afterwards, that also becomes part of your non-OIC funds which need to be declared. Basically, it is any money that does not form part of the $50 starting bankroll for the OIC. Only winnings of that $50 starting bankroll are counted as part of the OIC. Does that help?

I believe these are meant to say $1/$2.

Good luck to all those still slogging away!

Thanks Pete, we’ll arrange for this to be changed.

He does have a minor point though... what happens if by the end of the promotion, I have neither made 300 BFP, nor have more than $50 OIC money. Perhaps you should add a clause that at the end of the promotion period, you will top off any remaining players back to $50 in the event that they have not

1) Lost all the money
2) Earned the required 300 points

This way it truly would be risk free for all those that might only have a couple of hours a week spare like me. Plus it might stop some players dumping their last $10 as they only get the rebate if they lose all the money.

We’ll definitely take this into consideration, thanks!

Yobz – you’re registered for the OIC and your play will be counted.

I have a few questions:

1) Are we still allowed to still register and play the OIC? I realize the grand prize has been won, but there are still the daily prizes.

2) Is there an end date for OIC?

I went to the claim page, filled in my details and clicked the "Click here..." button, and the form just blanked out without any confirmation of the claim. I tried it 3 times with the same results. Did my claim get entered...?

P.S. - I did make a small error yesterday, and sat down at a 1/2 table when I should have sat at a .5/1. I clicked on what I thought was a .5/1 table, and joined the waiting list. When I got the notice that the seat was available, I started playing a few hands before I realized that it was a 1/2; I left as soon as I figured it out, down a couple of bucks. Would that invalidate my claim?

Can we start this now and still be eligible for the bankroll insurance, or did I need to start at the beginning? Thanks
