i feel i must make others aware of how sky are treating me and probably most other players surely u cant make up the rules as you go along !!! right my point is the everyones a winner tournament is for selected players does not clarify why or what they have done to get into this and chat support wont even tell me why. so basically there is no criteria? it is just random they say and if u dont have an ivitation via email u can not play! ok well i noticed there is a player called kris2405 on this site now he was not invited to play nor had a password u can see him on twitter under name krisv24 clearly ask sky if how he can get in they told him no invite then u can not play im afraid he says its his birthday yesterday lol etc. stil to no joy no invite no play they say. now to my amazement they let him in an now he's chip leader?????? explain SKY........ even before this i couldnt understand how u randomise which players are in this game without no pacific reason as to why whatsoeva???? and then to see a player who clearly was told he needs password and invitation to be involved playing shows how there is no rules u do what you want well i dont feel like its safe gaming im afraid also looks like use are favouring certain players until theres an explanation as to how u get into such a game i wont be satisfied an will consider what to do next thank you Thexmajor......

    I'm sure there is an Atlantic reason why they're invited, rather than being random. I believe they'd be in contact via email if you're eligible.

    There are certainly players in that freeroll that were not invited, personally I hope they are not allowed to keep their winnings.

    Ok, I have no idea what this MTT is let alone who was invited and who wasn't.

    Thex, how do you know a player was not invited?

    If someone who was invited decided to leak the password then why is it SkyPoker's fault?  This has happened in password freerolls since online poker began, not sure how you can blame the room and not the leaker.

    And poker players will try something for free money, and now the weather....

    it would take one simple post by Sky to explain (or at least give some vague details) about the criteria for these invite-only freerolls, yet each time one is mentioned we are told to lump it and the thread is closed without the opportunity for further discussion.

    Surely Sky know who they sent the e-mails too, I highly doubt those who didnt get an e-mail and therefore are ineligible will be allowed to keep their winnings, would be nice to hear from sky themselves though

    If I invite my friends around for a home game, are you lot going to moan about it? Demanding to see the invitation criteria?

    Okay, I don't have any friends but the point stands. Why do Sky need to explain every little detail to us? Be realistic.

    I don't care about who gets in to this freeroll. If some people want to be crafty/ask nicely for the password and get it from someone, then why do you care?

    I'm not sure how the phrase 'Invite only freeroll' isn't explanation enough to be frank.

    Everyone chill out please, I'm probably going to close (not delete) this thread in a moment if this continues.  Then one of the suits or Tikay can open it and answer the questions if they feel so inclined.

    Because it's the money they have taken from us in rake that is used to pay for these freerolls?

    I'm not even that bothered by the actual tournaments themselves, just Sky's heavy handed closing of threads each time someone asks about them.

    I honestly don't know how G.

    The point I was trying to make was twofold:

    1)  There have been invite only freerolls and private freerolls on poker sites practically since they started.  I personally think the term 'invite only' is self explanatory.  I don't know why a poker site would need to expand upon this and I also don't understand why a certain section (not you Sir) of the community feel that they should get an invite or be told why not.

    2)  Passwords for freerolls have always been leaked for as long as they have been going.  If someone feels the need to go looking for them and ask everyone already in there what the password is then it's up to them.  They are the ones risking some sort of intervention from the site if they are discovered and the site deems it fit.  Personally I don't think it's worth the risk.

    Finally in addition I don't know why this has spilt onto the forum.  I didn't see it but I have since been told most of the abuse and comments which has angered and upset many was on a private Facebook group (I'm a member of it by the way but all of the posts have been deleted before I saw them).  I don't know why the fallout of that comes here and don't like it.  Because it just leads to increased bad feeling and a drop in the atmosphere in the forum as well as confusion as most people don't know what it's all about.
