empire wait lists

[crockpot]

has anyone else noticed that the wait lists on empire occasionally never alert you to take your seat when it becomes available, instead just skipping you, giving the seat to the next guy and removing you from the list? this has happened to me at the $100 PLO tables enough that i no longer think it can be a coincidence or just my imagination.

i think when i join multiple tables and i press take me off the list on one of them it seems to take me off all of them.
is this what is happening?

[crockpot]

no, but i do think that every time it's happened, i had accepted a seat at one table and was then removed from the rest.

I've noticed it too from time to time, but haven't been able to discern any pattern to it.

I've also had the experience of having the window pop up telling me the table is ready, but it not letting me take the seat as I helplessly watch my time run out...

happens alot, but if you watvh and open the table when it shows 5 people you can sit down quite often. This also works when you are not even on the list. When they are having list problem I usually just update the list often and go to the good tables as soon as they show a seat open. Usually I can bypass the list and just sit down. Probably pisses people off. Oh well......

Happens on Party, too.
Seems to happen more when I'm surfing while waiting.
I've also had it take me to the room, but the seat be "Reserved" when I get there. This doesn't happen often, but it's very aggravating.

Whenever you take a seat it usually removes you from the wait list for that game. I always join the wait list again after being seated to a table.


Whenever it takes you to the room, but the seat stays reserved... Try getting off the wait list. If you were first on the list, it will usually remove the 'reserved' status of the seat and make it an open seat.

yeah it happens to me to. I've tried to figure out a pattern to it, but so far have been unable to.

Oh ..the mistery of the wait lists..who knows. I just request a seat on any table. Then, I put myself in the waiting lists of the tables that I think are good. Sometimes I get it in , sometimes i don't.

it works for me.
