Main Tournaments
Friday, March 7. 2008

After extensive testing and coding over the past few weeks, Main Tournaments are finally ready for release. I am starting it off slow with one 500 chip buy-in, 16 player tournament starting every hour. As the system settles in I will add other size tournaments at different times, and even have some large special tournaments. If you have any suggestions or bug reports for the Main Tournaments please post them in the comments.

Sorry About Delays
Thursday, February 21. 2008

This has been a very busy week for me so I have had trouble keeping up with messages and e-mails. Now, something has come up and I am going to be gone from tomorrow until Sunday. I will try my best and catch up on messages and e-mails on Sunday, and I am working as hard as I can to get multi-table tournaments ready for release, even though I haven't been able to do as many beta tests of the tables as I would liked to have so far. Again, sorry about this, this is just something that just came up and I didn't know until now.

Multi-Tables
Monday, February 18. 2008

If you didn't already know or hadn't already gotten a chance to participate, beta testing for multi-table tournaments is going on all this week. It will be at basically at random times and I will announce it on the chat due to my weird schedule this week. Hopefully all the bugs can get worked out by this weekend and the real tournaments can begin:-)

Free Points
Monday, February 4. 2008

I have temporarily closed the sponsors (free points) section. This is due to very bad reliability with the system. Many users haven't been getting points, which also means the advertisers haven't been paying. I am working on finding direct partners that will be 100% reliable and can be trusted.

New Friends System
Sunday, February 3. 2008

The new friends system has now been released. Friends lists had to be cleared, but I am sure this won't be too much of a problem. Whenever you add a friend it sends a request to that user so that they can easily add you as well. The friends page has been redone and looks much nicer, it also shows where your friends currently are on the site.

I am also going to add game invites for mutual friends soon, but if you all have any ideas or requests to expand the friends system please post them in the comments here.

PS: Next up, multi-table tournaments:-)

Friends
Sunday, January 27. 2008

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that the friends system will be getting a major revamp in the coming future. I don't know if this means friends lists will be cleared yet as I am not far enough in the programming process to figure that out yet, but if I do have to clear them I will post another message. I also don't have a date for this, as there are a few things I need to get done before this is completed, but I thought I would throw the word out there early.

Exclusive Item & Backpack
Saturday, January 26. 2008

First of all, I have just added a new section to the Use Points page. There is now an exclusive item up for sale, and there will only be 250 of this item sold. Once it is gone you can't get it again, and it won't ever show up in the furniture store or randomly on the ground.

In addition to this, a few changes in future plans (which if you will note these are changing constantly) have prompted me to bump backpacks to 15 by default. I don't see a change needing to be made again after this as this should now work correctly with all planned feature sets for the foreseeable future.

Default Backpack Size
Thursday, January 24. 2008

The default backpack size has been lowered to 10. Don't worry, if you are over that right now you didn't lose your items, you are just past the limit now and can't get anything else until you move some items out of your backpack.

Auto-Away Blackjack Bug
Wednesday, January 23. 2008

I have made a few small changes that may have fixed the problem, though due to its rarity in coming up, it is hard to test. If you come across it again, please let me know in the comments and post the hand id.

Auto-Spam Block
Tuesday, January 22. 2008

I have implemented an automatic spam block to the open chat on the site. Don't worry, this shouldn't affect any of your normal chatting habits.

Numbers/Store
Tuesday, January 22. 2008

I have decided to remove the numbers thing from the furniture store since the issue is basically removed with the new 30 second rule.

Furniture Store
Tuesday, January 22. 2008

I am still working on making the furniture store more fair and work more smoothly, but I have just added something in that limits each user to one item per 30 seconds.

Downloads
Saturday, January 19. 2008

Okay well I'm not technically a graphic artist or anything, but I went ahead and made a PokerRPG wallpaper. You can download it in several screen resolutions from the points/prizes page in the Downloads section. I hope you like it!
