Thanks for these.... but... If players can not play tonight/do not wish to play, there is no 'unregister' facility. This will lead to having a load of 'aways', no doubt. This IS NOT a moan, just an observation. Posted by MAXALLY
i deregisterd by mistake and cant register back in either, i didnt realise it was an automatic reg. This seems a bit silly because your gonna get a lot of people not in it and its gonna just slow up the whole game until they get blinded out. Seems a bit daft to me! I would suggest turning off the automatic reg and letting players do it them selves.

As you'll have seen from the posts before, its not possible to have it perfect.
If we did do it like you suggested there would be (a) people who might not realise they are due it and (b) if someone missed the start by a few seconds would not be able to play.
We think we have the fairest system now all things considered.
Thank you for adding the de-register button. I have tried to de-register but it does'nt allow me to de-register as I was not automatically registered.
I think if I had registered for the Main & Mini event last night, I would have been automatically registered, in which case I would have been able to de-register today. As I did not register for the main & mini event last night, I was not registered, which is why I am unable to de-register................
Can you add a button for this?........................or should I just button it?

they might not know there due it anyways if they dont have there computer on and if they miss it by a few seconds well that would be there fault anyways, you could send out an automated email or text to remind them they have free entry. if they reg themselves and read or see the offer on skypoker they would know to register for it and be prepared for it at the relevant time. Its just my thoughts and ideas! not having a go at you for putting free games as this is always a good thing and i like the idea just think it needs tweeking a bit

+1, if they dont know about it then they will not be playing anyway unless they happen to be online at that time. Also some people may not want to play in it even if they qualify.
Hi Mr Sky Poker again, its me.....pain in the <insert word here>
I would like to thank you for putting me on a table with 5 'aways' last night in the mini freeroll. This enabled me to build my stack up nicely and I went onto min cash for 28p! Please can I have the same tonight.
Just noticed in the lobby that you can deregister from tonight's mini BUT register for the main freeroll.

It's the same tonight! 3/4/5 aways at every table!
yea i finished in 8th also lol to trev i saw you with over 100k in it when i only had 5k in chips at one point for a while but i still beat ya
£200 Main freeroll
Dazler
0
8
£6
But i prob wont play them again at least not in tandem with other games, becasuse as i stated before i had 5 away players for about an hour of it and while having the main and mini games going at the same time i kept having to raise and muck hands every 2 bloomin seconds so i couldnt give the main games i was playing full attention cos i got constant bleeping noises and the table coming to the front. Its the worst idea ive seen on this site, whats the point in having a poker game with just you in it only to steal small blinds for an hour and distract you from games your paying for. Ok so i got some free blinds and it helped me cash but i think automatic registration is a big fat FAIL and stopped me from playing the best i could in the main events which ultimately costs me more money.

HUH?....you cash last night in 8th, then proceed to have a little moan about these FREEROLLS. Its like the bloke complaining yesterday about wanting to have time banks on here to help him play ON OTHER SITES at the same time as Sky.

if you saw how annoying it was to play it you would understand why im having a moan about it, I dont think its a good idea. And it stopped me playing my best in the main last night which cost me £22 quid so its a valid moan to a system that dosnt work well, why is that strange? i may as well just do the £100 freeroll and actualy have players to play against rather that sit on my loansome with constant beeping in my earhole. How many no runners did you have at your table? if it was 2 or 3 i could deal with it but not 5!

Sorry Daz, but it was YOUR choice to play the main and YOUR choice to play the freeroll. You can not then blame the freeroll 'aways' for you not doing so well in the main IMHO!
Anyway.....lets discuss this over a pint or two in AL's Bar and watch some paint dry.

i didnt register for it did i and if i knew i was going to be playing on my own for over an hour and it was gonna be such a pain, i would have deregistered from the start. Why should it stop me playing the main i should be able to multi table without any hassles. Ill have a pint if your buying and the bar does need a new coat of paint
All well and good for those who play the main and mini.BUT why did the 22:30 50 point £100 gtd freeroll have to get the chop to add these? Nothing between 19:00 and 01:00 for noob's and micro rec's now !!

like the euro one before nice and quick.
and thus solves the away problem
If we did do it like you suggested there would be (a) people who might not realise they are due it and (b) if someone missed the start by a few seconds would not be able to play.
