Empire has prohibited me from opening an account due to the fact that I have an active Party account and are insisting that I close my Party account to open up at Empire and I just don't want to go to the trouble.

That is true only if you wish to use the same name for the account on both sites.
Try adding something to the end of the name on Empire.

They actually blocked me due to my street address and Neteller account being the same as my Party account.

We need a G-string babe to flash/walk across the screen announcing the new level. .

This is borrowed from boxing but those that wish to take issue can kiss my fat ass.

That's weird because I did manage to open both though I never got round to using my Empire account.

If there's going to be radio coverage, can it also be in the form of downloadable mp3s for those of us who want to podcast?

[GrannyMae]

does this mean "will there be archives?"

if so, the answer is yeppers

Finally, a sensible suggestion. I like this one.

I understand that the logistics of an event that lasts more than 12-14 hours are problematic, but I think ISOP Admin. should focus on pushing tourney host sites to extend the duration of the each level and the starting stack-to-blind ratios to the max.

Perhaps something in the range of:
2500 chips (roughly 5M chips in play)
Blinds starting @ 25/50, and escalating on a softer curve than the standard online game.

This is one way I think the ISOP games could be seen as unique (not just another internet tourney, as one poster put it).

Thanks for all the hard work Grannie and Co.!

hi guys,

we certainly hope to be able to offer an archived replayer, perhaps with audio commentary from any final table player who would agree to help in the production. So yes, not only will we try for something basic, we will try and do it up right.

Well, the main reason I, and others that I know, do not play in party MTT's that much is the ridiculously flat payout table, and to a lesser extent the blind structure. I hope that the ISOP will be different, in that the adminstrators can dictate the payout schedule.

The payouts are WAY too flat and I don't see them changing this anytime soon. Its a shame nothing can be done about this, as it essentially ruins the entire event.

Tuco.
