Lottery
Thursday, July 17. 2008

The lottery is now back and better than ever. You may not at first notice the changes when you look at the page, but the lottery should be a much more solid feature now. The major change is that now it doesn't matter what order your cards are in to win, you just need to get all 3 in any order right to win the jackpot. This should ensure winners much more often. Also, when you click on the 'Random Ticket' button, it makes sure to not give you a duplicate card. There are several other changes that are "under the hood" and should make the system work better overall.

I have also doubled the amount of chips added to the jackpot per ticket bought.

Charity
Thursday, July 17. 2008

The charity fund has been adjusted due to some of the chips being added from the aforementioned exploits. So, we still aren't quite there, but keep up the great work, it is doing really well!

Exploits
Wednesday, July 16. 2008

I have just fixed 2 major exploits that have let millions of chips be leaked into the game for free. I have fixed both of these bugs and have corrected the chip counts.

Clarification
Wednesday, July 16. 2008

There is a rumor going around that I am selling the site. I would like to clarify that I currently have no plans of selling the site, rather I have been talking with investors to improve the site and expand the possibilities. However, it is a business after all and businesses do get bought and sold. Although, I again stress that the rumor that the site is being sold is not true, and it has just been a simple misunderstanding.

Lottery
Tuesday, July 15. 2008

I have temporarily taken the lottery page down. I am currently doing a revamp of the lottery system to make it better and to hopefully revive it. Expect it to return fairly soon, and don't worry, if the system changes enough that I have to reset the tickets, you will get a refund on the chips for the tickets you currently have.

Balance Limit
Tuesday, July 15. 2008

I have imposed a limit of base 250,000 chips that can be in your bank account at a time. This can be upgraded up to 2,500,000 with points. Now, before you all go off on your rants about how I am the most hateful and evil person in the world, step back and realize why I am doing this. There is awful inflation in the "PokerRPG Economy," with the total chips floating around doubling in the past 3 weeks alone. This is a very bad situation and I am taking steps to solve the problems. You may not agree with some of the things, but they are very necessary to keep things from collapsing, just trust me.

Max Shop Price
Tuesday, July 15. 2008

I will be raising the max price for items in shops next week, so if you don't want your item bought, raise it to above 100,000 and you will be safe.

I have just made a change to the bank so that you lose the opportunity to collect interest for the day if when you deposit chips.

Points
Saturday, July 5. 2008

A few people have been having issues lately with points not being credited automatically. If this happens to you please do not just issue a chargeback as that causes many problems for me and the site. Just use the contact form to send me an e-mail and I will get it sorted out and the points added no problem.
