The first league was a great success, with "friendly" rivalry down to the wire. So why change a winning formula, although Diggermans suggestion of reverse points does have some merit. Maybe run over a calendar month with a minimum of say 10 entries. I am in whatever the format, and as long as Vince is prepared to pull the scores together it will be good fun.
I think the prizes for the first league shd be awarded before the second league starts ;-) Seriously, I think you shd leave it the way it is, but run it over each calendar month. Posted by SoLack
No chance Solly - we plan to grim you.
Seriously, I believe you won a week's worth of free entries to the TOTTY's. If so, tell me what week you wish to play them, & I'll sort it.
Hi Vince, i was wondering that maybe we could also have a simular League for players with smaller BR say £2-20 - £2-30 buy-in & run the same way as TSP Classic & maybe put up a prize of a TSP Classic entry every week just a thought Michael Posted by DTWBANDIT
Hi Michael,
We are acutely conscious of the necessity of embracing ALL Buy-In Levels in these Leagues.
I'd just make a few points.
1) Are you not already running such a League? I seem to recall arranging some Prizes for a League you were or are running?
2) There is a limit to the amount of work I can reasonably ask Mere to do. He does not, & will not, accept ANY forrm of payment. So we need to go a bit steady if it involves asking Mere to be the SpreadSheeter.
3) A new Sky Poker Forum League will be announced in the next few days which will be run by one of the PTP-ers, & it will include ALL Buy-In Levels. Might be worthwhile seeing what that is when it's announced before making a decision on your request.
Over & above that, yes yes yes, we really do want to be able to adopt your suggestion, & I can arrange some Prizes for it if it helps, subject to all of the above.
Not a change to the league system but a 9pm start would benefit the workers (not me obv) Posted by phil12uk
I had forgotten this point, and no doubt there are logistical reasons for starting it at 10pm, but I'm sure it prevents quite a few from entering. I entered as many as possible, but the tournament does not conclude until 1.45am ish, and for those who need to be up for work at 7, like me, it just isn't possible to play every night of the week. Sure, in most cases you won't go very deep, but you have to factor in the possibility when deciding whether to play or not. 9pm would be much better imo?!

Hi Tikay it was just an idea i thought i would throw into the hat & all the points you have made are valid of which i shall now try to address
1/ Yes the Monday Last Longer Comp is still running & the Prizes you arranged for it are very much appreciated by all. Its a great nite, a lot of fun tho numbers are low at the moment mainly due to Xmas & not everyone can play on a Monday Night.
2/ Merenovice has been Awesome & Instrumental in helping me with how to do a Table Properly as a result of his help me & my mate scouse_red did the table on the Monday just gone which was successful.
3/ I look forward to & will deffo take part in whatever league is decided for smaller BR's as i love playing poker for the fun / competition & enjoyment of it.

I also agree that an earlier start during the week would be nice as 3 days a week I have to get up for work at 4.30.
staying up til 1.30am is not ideal for 8am-8pm workdays
