I find it amusing, as there seems to be a group of players that compete in a race to every new announcement on the forum, to try to get their approval posted first. It doesnt seem to make any difference as to how trivial the announcement is, they want to be first and they will approve wholeheartedly. They will never disagree with anything.
Its Thursday today, Wow thankyou Sky, I love you Sky you never let me down.
"Any player not getting 2,000 points next month will have their left leg amputated." Wow thank you Sky, we dont need two legs to play poker. Ive always wanted to walk with a limp. I will never have to buy a pair of shoes again. I will be able to nick the one I will need from outside the shoe shops.
On a more realistic example Sky couldnt have come up with more ridiculous starting times for the SPT if they had tried. Yet there they are. Wow thankyou Sky, we love you, its a great idea to start playing in the middle of the night, I wont get tired and fall asleep. Well done Sky. I will be getting to Manchester the night before, but I dont mind hanging about all day, I will go to the Zoo. I love Zoos.
When Tikay announced that there was going to be a Viva Last Vegas, without publishing the details of the ridiculous points qualification requirements, there they were Wow We love you etc. etc.in massive print, and +1s evertwhere. Yet when the targets came out they couldnt qualify.
This obsequiosness doesnt accomplish anything other than giving the suits the wrong impression.
Sometimes improvement can be gained through debate. The only thing that can be gained through praising the ridiculous is more ridiculousness.
I think that the suits from Sky just dont seem to get involved in some threads where their input would be of value, and appreciated.
When Tikay posted in January that there was to be a long overdue overhaul of the mtt programme, I was a little bit excited. I am not sure what I was expecting, but a change is as good as a rest. There was no substantial change to any of the tournaments I play which was disappointing.
To finish off I would like to say a couple of things regarding the SPT starting times.
Firstly, on tbhis occasion Sky have at least not attempted to defend the indefencible, and are changing the starting times.
Secondly, this was done by listening to the more sensible players, rather than the groupies.

love that post, just love it.
Changing the starting times is good, and I am sure will be appreciated by most of the players, as the original ones were not very good.

Morning all.
As most of you know by now, Sky Poker are revamping the MTT Schedule. It's well overdue, & has to be done, & once it is all sorted, the MTT schedule here will be better, more logically arranged & timed, & better presented.
So if you have ANY questions, observations as & when changes happen, or, Heaven forbid, complaints, please post them on this thread. The Suits WILL read this thread daily, & if anything major arises during the changes, & you guys let us know, I'll send it straight upstairs.
Doing it this way will be far more efficient for both sides of the table, & help us all - players & business alike - get through the MTT Revamp more comfortably, & I'll happily explain why any particular MTT has been moved, changed, re-packaged or dropped.
It's a 2 way process - the players & The Business, Working together, we CAN make it better. And we will.

If not, if this is your "apology", I'm siding with the "smartarse"
Do you really think that was called for? Do you not think you are being abusive to James? What's not to understand? Would you be happy if Sky James referred to you in those terms? And what has being Welsh got to do with it?
Please feel free to side with whoever you wish to side with. that is your right.
