I was wrong, it's not the lowest, last week only got 69 too.
Would be interested to see numbers over time if anyone has them. From gut feel I'd say TPT numbers are up on the past few months and THS are always well represented. Just wonder if it could be improved. They are good cheap tournaments with added value and good structures. If we're anticipating a slow December maybe now is a good time to push it harder?
I enjoy these games and the team element just as much as I used to enjoy 'community wednesdays'....
Was 69 last week!! as MikeDTW said numbers aways low in Dec!
Quite Few new Independants playing now..All Team Numbers dropped recently apart from TPT who have actually increased new members playing!!
Not a Moan, but I saw & did hear a few cases of bad etiquette in chat last nite!!
Think Team Capos & Regulars can police/advise Here as this has NEVER been a DTD Monday nite problem!
Banter Yes...
but Name calling Nastily No!!! [esp C R & M words!!!]
The Customer Base playing DTD is older, More Sensible/Sensitive...
A Few People I know who play, have Children with 'Difficulties', this is for some their only Poker Nite..
To see some 'words' used that seem to be in 'General Use' amongst younger poker players is VERY OFFENSIVE to the Majority of DTD players!
Some Slang terms I will never use, & Words I might use in the Pub, I would NEVER use in Poker Chat..
Think some newbies should consider this too pls....
...Hey I aint a Copper!! Just pointing out Basic Human Decency, as not all know who are members of our Great Community, and what difficulties they have in Real world!!!
Have fun All!!
Forgive & Move on! People will learn from this....

I think we know what particular word your referring to Dave. I think it originates from America and players see it used on other sites and the media and think it's ok. If they have played on other sites and then come to Sky it must seem odd when players are treated with respect and we wish each other good luck. It's down to us to educate them.

Congrats on winning it mike, was quite funny watching both of you HU, whoever got it in behind won! Was nice to play on a table with some good guys ie; peter27, pokertrev, yourself. I look forward to the next dtd!
Well played bbMike if it was you I played HU in DTD2 last night. I should never be losing with an 8/1 chip lead there but it was a great HU battle and enjoyed it (bar the result lol).

No, that wasn't me, I was HU in DTD3, but I do hope whoever it was isn't put off by your earlier comments.
I Messaged a couple of Newbies to DTD Monday about our Tradition & ethic!! I recieved sincere apologies, and one Guy removed offensive words, that he embarrsing used in Frustration without meaning any Offence! I Accepted his Apology, and pass it on to You, hope you can all do same! No Biggie, S.hit Happens, no need to embarrass anyone more.. think we can happily move on! I hope Both play & Enjoy again next week! As Dale sensibly stated above, it is down to 'Us Regulars' to Educate & Lead by Example.. ..it can be difficult, BUT THESE ARE OUR TOURNIES & LEAGUES! Michael, Chris, Trev, Me, Maxally & Many other admins, past, present have always strived for this! [DTW, sry to have taken this on board myself, but I was notified, acted, and all sorted!!] Cya Next week!! Posted by HITMAN_RV
No Probs Hitman,
Didn't know there was a problem just read through it now, Dale has hit the nail on the head with what he said, am sure it will continue to run smoothly as we haven't had many problems in the last 3 Years.
