  Yeah.  I got a little disappointed when I learned that people under 18 couldn't participate in the tournaments.  I don't think letting them play is a bad idea.  Perhaps you guys can try it. 

  Oh, and also, you know how WGT will award you with XP for playing consecutive days.  Maybe you can do the same for credits.  For example:

  2 days earns you 10 credits.

  3 days earns you 25 credits.

  4 days earns you 50 credits.

  5 days earns you 75 credits.

  6 days earns you 100 credits. 

  Anyways, you probably get the picture.  Maybe we can make one of my suggestions happen.

  Hi

  I am pretty sure under age playing for credits is against the law, so until that changes...

  Sounds nice , But I would say No to this ,,  The sandbaggers / level 90 hacks would take over the game more than they allready have .

  And for the player that missed consecutive days do to a browser crash would blame WGT and fill the forums with  " I want it fixed now ! "

  I love how Icon didn't even respond to that suggestion. "Sure thing, sounds like a great idea, we'll pay you to play here. That makes great business sense..."

  I saw that also ,  And it was a smart play  .  Icon knowes that some forum troll like me would have something to say about it , And that makes me the Bad Guy . And that is fine with me .

  The idea of credits for playing is basically a frequent player program in it's most simple form.

  See this thread:-

  http://www.wgt.com/forums/t/121375.aspx

   

  Frequent Player rewards is a necessity to keep players here, they reach a certain point then get bored/disillusioned.

   

  Pokerstars have one of the best FFP programs on the internet. It works, It keeps players and generates knew ones.

   

  It's win win for the players and WGT.
