  Hi everyone,

  We wanted to clarify the new sweeten the pot tournament option: There is no commission charged if the tournament is free, so if you add 1000 credits, then the full 1000 credits will go to the winners.  If you sweeten the pot on a tournament with an entry fee, the commission will only be charged on the entry fee and the full amount added by the tournament creator will be paid to the winners.

  Our Engineers and QA teams are looking into this to see if they can find a bug.  Will update as soon as I hear anything.

  I saw it fixed last night. Not a single snag in playing 4 AS games. Players declined and were replaced without hassle and everybody always saw everybody else in the lobby. Yay.  :-)

  Good news!

  But, there's news around currently that a whole CC can't enter it's tournaments. This made me think of former reports of "tournaments without winners". In such cases, the whole purse, including the sponsored pot, will fall to the company.

  It would be an added incentive if the club owners were allowed to use the Clubs credits to also sweeten the pots.

  After all its thanks to the members the credits are awarded to the country club.

  Just a thoughtt???
